Fastening the seat belts 1. Adjust the seat. See ªSeatsº earlier in
this section.
2. Slowly pull the seat belt out of the re-
tractor and insert the tongue into the
buckle until it clicks.
· The retractor is designed to lock dur-
ing a sudden stop or on impact. A
slow pulling motion will permit the
belt to move, and allow you some
freedom of movement in the seat. · If the seat belt cannot be pulled from
its fully retracted position, firmly pull
the belt and release it. Then
smoothly pull the belt out of the re-
tractor. 3. Position the lap belt portion low and
snug on the hips as shown.
4. Pull the shoulder belt portion toward
the retractor to take up extra slack. Be
sure the shoulder belt is routed over
your shoulder and across your chest.
The front passenger and rear seat belts
have a locking mechanism for child re-
straint installation. It is referred to as the
automatic locking mode.
When the locking mechanism is activated
the seat belt cannot be extended again
until the seat belt tongue is detachedSSS0292

from the buckle and fully retracted. For
additional information, see ªChild re-
straintsº later in this section.
The automatic locking mode should be
used only for child restraint installation.
During normal seat belt use by a pas-
senger, the locking mode should not be ac-
tivated. If it is activated it may cause un-
comfortable seat belt tension. It can also
change the operation of the front pas-
senger air bag. See ªFront passenger air
bag and status lightº later in this section. WARNING When fastening the seat belts, be certain
that the seatbacks are completely secured in
the latched position. If they are not com-
pletely secured, passengers may be injured
in an accident or sudden stop.
Unfastening the seat belts To unfasten the belt, push the button on
the buckle. The seat belt will automati-
cally retract.
Checking seat belt operation Your seat belt retractors are designed to
lock belt movement using two separate
methods:
O when the belt is pulled quickly from
the retractor.
O when the vehicle slows down rapidly.SSS0291A

You can check their operation as follows:
O grasp the shoulder belt and pull for-
ward quickly. The retractor should lock
and restrict further belt movement.
If the retractor does not lock during this
check or if you have any questions about
belt operation, see an INFINITI dealer.
Shoulder belt height adjustment
(for Sedan front seats) The shoulder belt anchor height should
be adjusted to the position best suited for
you. (See ªPrecautions on seat belt
usageº earlier in this section.) To adjust,
pull the release button
q 1
, and then move
the shoulder belt anchor
q 2
to the de-
sired position, so that the belt passes
over the center of the shoulder. The belt
should be away from your face and neck,
but not falling off of your shoulder. Re-
lease the adjustment button
q 1
to lock
the shoulder belt anchor into position. WARNING O After adjustment, release the adjust-
ment button and try to move the
shoulder belt anchor up and down to
make sure it is securely fixed in position.
O The shoulder belt anchor height should
be adjusted to the position best for you.
Failure to do so may reduce the effective-
ness of the entire restraint system and
increase the chance or severity of injury
in an accident. SSS0368

CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION
ON REAR SEAT OUTBOARD OR
CENTER POSITIONS
WARNINGO The three-point seat belt in your vehicle
is equipped with an automatic locking
mode retractor which must be used
when installing a child restraint.
O Failure to use the automatic locking
mode will result in the child restraint not
being properly secured. The restraint
could tip over or otherwise be unsecured
and cause injury to the child in a sudden
stop or collision.
Front facing When you install a child restraint in a rear
outboard or center seat, follow these
steps:
1. Position the child restraint on the
seat. Always follow the restraint
manufacturer's instructions. The back of the child restraint should be
secured against the vehicle seatback. If
necessary, adjust or remove the head re-
straint to obtain the correct child restraint
fit. See ªHead restraint adjustmentº ear-
lier in this section. If the head restraint is
removed, store it in a secure place. Be
sure to install the head restraint when the
child restraint is removed. If the seating
position does not have an adjustable
head restraint and it is interfering with
the proper child restraint fit, try another
seating position or a different child re-
straint. SSS0252A

2. Route the seat belt tongue through the
child restraint and insert it into the
buckle until you hear and feel the
latch engage. Be sure to follow the
child restraint manufacturer's instruc-
tions for belt routing. 3. Pull on the shoulder belt until all of
the belt is fully extended. At this time,
the belt retractor is in the automatic
locking mode (child restraint mode). It
reverts back to emergency locking
mode when the belt is fully retracted. 4. Allow the belt to retract. Pull up on the
belt to remove any slack in the belt.SSS0253G SSS0254H SSS0332C

5. Before placing the child in the child
restraint, use force to push the child
restraint from side to side, and tug it
forward to make sure that it is se-
curely held in place. It should not
move more than 1 in (25 mm). If it
does move more than 1 in (25 mm),
pull again on the shoulder belt to fur-
ther tighten the child restraint. If un-
able to properly secure the restraint,
move the restraint to another rear
seating position and try again, or try a
different child restraint. Not all child
restraints fit in all types of vehicles. 6. Check that the retractor is in the auto-
matic locking mode by trying to pull
more belt out of the retractor. If you
cannot pull any more belt webbing out
of the retractor, the belt is in the auto-
matic locking mode.
7. Check to make sure that the child re-
straint is properly secured prior to
each use. If the belt is not locked, re-
peat steps 3 through 6.
After the child restraint is removed and
the seat belt is fully retracted, the auto-
matic locking mode (child restraint mode)
is canceled.
Rear facing When you install a child restraint in a rear
outboard or center seat, follow these
steps:
1. Position the child restraint on the
seat. Always follow the restraint
manufacturer's instructions.SSS0333C SSS0334
