2003 INFINITI G35 lock

INTERIOR TRUNK LID RELEASE
WARNINGClosely supervise children when they
are around cars to prevent them from
playing and becoming locked in the
trunk where they could be seriously in-
jured. Keep the car locked, with the
trunk closed, when not in use, and pre-
vent children's access to car keys. The interior trunk lid release mechanism pro-
vides a means of escape for children and
adults in the event they become locked inside
the trunk.
The handle is located on the back side of the
trunk lid inside the trunk compartment.
To open the trunk lid from the inside, pull
the release handle towards you until the
lock releases and push up on the trunk lid.
The release lever is made of a material that
glows in the dark after a brief exposure to
ambient light.SPA1591 SPA1426A SPA1561

AUTOMATIC SEAT POSITIONER
OPERATION This system is designed so that the driver's
seat will automatically move when the auto-
matic transmission selector lever is in the P
(Park) position or when the parking brake is
applied (manual transmission model). This al-
lows the driver to get in and out of the driver's
seat more easily.
When one of the following conditions is met,
the driver's seat will slide backward. (AT mod-
els only)
O When the key is removed from the ignition
switch.
O When the driver's door is opened with the
key turned to ACC or LOCK.
O When the key is turned from ON to ACC
with the driver's door open.
When one of the following conditions is met,
the driver's seat will return to the positions
before being set. (AT models only)
O When the key is inserted into the ignition
switch.
O When the driver's door is closed with the
key turned to LOCK.
O When the key is turned from ACC to ON with the driver's door open.
PROCEDURE FOR STORING
MEMORY Two positions can be stored in the automatic
driver's seat positioner memory. Follow these
procedures to use the memory system.
1. AT models:
Set the automatic transmission selector
lever to the P (Park) position.
M/T models:
Apply the parking brake securely when the
vehicle is stopped.
2. Turn the ignition ON.
3. Adjust the driver's seat to the desired posi-
tions by manually operating each adjusting
switch. For additional information, see
ªSeatsº in the ª1. Seats, restraints and
supplemental air bag systemsº section.
During this step, do not turn the ignition to SPA1431

any positions other than ON.
4. Push the SET switch and, within 5 seconds,
push the memory switch 1 or 2 fully for at
least 1 second.
The indicator light for the pushed memory
switch will come on and stay on for approxi-
mately 5 seconds after pushing the switch.
After the indicator light goes off, the se-
lected positions are stored in the selected
memory (1 or 2).
If memory is stored in the same memory
switch, the previous memory will be de-
leted.
Confirming memory storage O Turn the ignition ON and push the SET
switch. If the main memory has not been
stored, the indicator light will come on for
approximately 0.5 seconds. When the
memory has stored the position, the indica-
tor light will stay on for approximately 5
seconds.
O If the battery cable is disconnected, or if the
fuse blows, the memory will be canceled. In
such a case, reset the desired positions
using the following procedures.
1. Open and close the driver's door more than two times with the ignition key in the LOCK
position.
2. Reset the desired position using the previ-
ous procedure.
Selecting the memorized position 1. A/T models:
Set the automatic transmission selector le-
ver to the P (Park) position.
M/T models:
Apply the parking brake securely when the
vehicle is stopped.
2. Turn the ignition ON.
3. Push the memory switch 1 or 2 fully for at
least 1 second.
The driver's seat will move to the memo-
rized position with the indicator light flash-
ing. Then the light will stay on for approxi-
mately 5 seconds.
When memory switch 1 or 2 is pushed with the
driver's door open and then the key inserted
into the ignition switch within approximately 1
minute, the driver's seat will move to the
memorized position. (AT models only) System operation The automatic drive positioner system will not
work or will stop operating under the following
conditions:
O when the vehicle speed is above 4 MPH (7
km/h).
O when any two or more of the memory
switches are simultaneously pressed while
the automatic drive positioner is operating.
O when the adjusting switch for the driver's
seat is turned on while the automatic drive
positioner is operating.
O when the cancel switch is pushed to cancel.
O when the memory switch 1 or 2 is not
pushed for at least 1 second.
O when the seat has already been moved to
the memorized position.
O when no seat position is stored in the
memory switch.
O when the parking brake is not applied. Ð
M/T models
O when the vehicle speed is above 4 MPH (7
km/h) while the parking brake is applied. Ð
M/T models
To restart the drive positioner system,
move the parking brake to off and on.

movement, reception conditions will constantly
change. Buildings, terrain, signal distance and
interference from other vehicles can work
against ideal reception. Described below are
some of the factors that can affect your radio
reception.
FM RADIO RECEPTION Range: FM range is normally limited to 25 to
30 miles (40 to 48 km), with monaural (single
channel) FM having slightly more range than
stereo FM. External influences may some-
times interfere with FM station reception even
if the FM station is within 25 miles (40 km). The
strength of the FM signal is directly related to
the distance between the transmitter and re-
ceiver. FM signals follow a line-of-sight path,
exhibiting many of the same characteristics as
light. For example they will reflect off objects.
Fade and drift: As your vehicle moves away from a station transmitter, the signals will tend
to fade and/or drift.
Static and flutter: During signal interference
from buildings, large hills or due to antenna
position, usually in conjunction with increased
distance from the station transmitter, static or
flutter can be heard. This can be reduced by
adjusting the treble control counterclockwise
to reduce treble response.
Multipath reception: Because of the reflective
characteristics of FM signals, direct and re-
flected signals reach the receiver at the same
time. The signals may cancel each other,
resulting in momentary flutter or loss of sound.
AM RADIO RECEPTION AM signals, because of their low frequency,
can bend around objects and skip along the
ground. In addition, the signals can be
bounced off the ionosphere and bent back to
earth. Because of these characteristics. AM
signals are also subject to interference as they
travel from transmitter to receiver.
Fading: Occurs while the vehicle is passing
through freeway underpasses or in areas with
many tall buildings. It can also occur for sev-
eral seconds during ionospheric turbulence
even in areas where no obstacles exist.
Static: Caused by thunderstorms, electrical SAA0306

Satellite radio antenna Satellite radio performance may be affected if
cargo carried on the roof rack blocks the
satellite radio signal. If possible, do not put
cargo over the satellite radio antenna. When installing a CB, ham radio or car phone
in your INFINITI, be sure to observe the fol-
lowing cautions, otherwise the new equipment
may adversely affect the Engine control sys-
tem and other electronic parts.
WARNING O A cellular telephone should not be
used while driving so full attention
may be given to vehicle operation.
Some jurisdictions prohibit the use of
cellular telephones while driving.
O If you must make a call while your
vehicle is in motion, the hands free
cellular phone operational mode (if
so equipped) is highly recommended.
Exercise extreme caution at all times
so full attention may be given to ve-
hicle operation.
O If a conversation in a moving vehicle
requires you to take notes, pull off the
road to a safe location and stop your
vehicle before doing so. CAUTION O Keep the antenna as far as possible
away from the Engine Control Module
(ECM).
O Keep the antenna wire more than 8 in
(20 cm) away from the Multiport Fuel
Injection harness. Do not route the
antenna wire next to any harness.
O Adjust the antenna standing-wave ra-
tio as recommended by the manufac-
turer.
O Connect the ground wire from the CB
radio chassis to the body.
O For details, consult an authorized
INFINITI retailer.CAR PHONE OR CB RADIO
