Center of rear seat
Selecting correct set of seat belts :
The center seat belt buckle is identified by the
CENTER mark
sA. The center seat belt tongue
can be fastened onlyinto the center seat belt
buckle.
Shoulder belt height adjustment
(front seats)
The shoulder belt anchor height should be
adjusted to the position best for you. (See
ªPRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT USAGEº earlier in
this section.)
To adjust, push the adjustment button
sA, and
then move the shoulder belt anchor to the

the center of the shoulder. The belt should be
away from your face and neck, but not falling off
of your shoulder. Release the adjustment but-
ton to lock the shoulder belt anchor into posi-
tion.
WARNING
c After adjustment, release the adjustment
button and try to move the shoulder belt
anchor up and down to make sure it is se-
curely fixed in position.
c The shoulder belt anchor height should be
adjusted to the position best for you. Failure
to do so may reduce the effectiveness of the
entire restraint system and increase the
chance or severity of injury in an accident.
SEAT BELT EXTENDERS
If, because of body size or driving position, it is
not possible to properly fit the lap-shoulder belt
and fasten it, an extender is available that is
compatible with the installed seat belts. The
extender adds approximately 8 in (200 mm) of
length and may be used for either the driver or
front passenger seating position. See an
INFINITI retailer for assistance if an extender is
required.
WARNING
cOnly INFINITI seat belt extenders, made by
the same company which made the original

WARNING
cAlways have the doors locked while driving.
Along with the use of seat belts, this pro-
vides greater safety in the event of an acci-
dent by helping to prevent persons from be-
ing thrown from the vehicle. This also helps
keep children and others from unintention-
ally opening the doors, and will help keep
out intruders.
c Before opening any door, always look for and
avoid oncoming traffic.
c Do not leave children unattended inside the
vehicle. They could unknowingly activate
switches or controls. Unattended children
could become involved in serious accidents.
LOCKING WITH MECHANICAL KEY

front of the vehicle
s1will lock all doors.
c Turning the driver's door key cylinder once
to the rear of the vehicle
s2will unlock the
driver's door. After returning the key to the
neutral position
s3, turning it to the rear
again within 5 seconds will unlock all doors.
c You can switch the lock system to the mode
that allows you to open all the doors when
the key is turned once. (See ªHOW TO USE
SETTING BUTTONº in the ª4. Monitor, cli- mate, audio, phone and voice recognition
systemsº section.)
OPENING AND CLOSING WINDOWS

WARNING
cDo not adjust the steering wheel while driv-
ing. You could lose control of your vehicle
and cause an accident.
c Do not adjust the steering wheel any closer
to you than is necessary for proper steering
operation and comfort. The driver's air bag
inflates with great force. If you are unre-
strained, leaning forward, sitting sideways
or out of position in any way, you are at
greater risk of injury or death in a crash. You
may also receive serious or fatal injuries
from the air bag if you are up against it when
it inflates. Always sit back against the seat-
back and as far away as practical from the
steering wheel. Always use the seat belts.
TILT OR TELESCOPIC OPERATION
Move the lever to adjust the steering wheel up
or down, forward or rearward to the desired
position.
Entry/Exit function operation
The automatic drive positioner system will
make the steering wheel move up automatically
when the driver's door is opened with the
ignition switch in the LOCK position. This lets
the driver get into and out of the seat more
easily.
For more information, see ªAUTOMATIC DRIVE
POSITIONERº later in this section.

The automatic drive positioner system has the
following features:
cEntry/exit function
c Memory storage
ENTRY/EXIT FUNCTION
This system is designed so that the driver's seat
and steering column will automatically move
when the selector lever is in the P (Park)
position. This allows the driver to get into and
out of the driver's seat more easily.
The driver's seat will slide backward and the
steering wheel will move up when the driver's
door is opened with the ignition switch in the
LOCK position.
The driver's seat and steering wheel will return
to the previous positions when one of the
following is operated:
cWhen the ignition switch is pushed to the
ACC position after the driver's door is
closed.
c When the ignition switch is pushed to the
ON position.
c When the Intelligent Key is inserted into the
port after the driver's door is closed. The driver's seat will not return to the previous
positions if the seat or steering adjusting
switch is operated when the seat is at the exit
position.
Cancel or activate entry/exit function
To cancel or activate the entry/exit function, the
selector lever must be in the P (Park) position
with the ignition switch in the LOCK position.
Push and hold the SET switch for more than 10
seconds to cancel or activate the entry/exit
function.
The indicator lights on the memory switches (1
and 2) will blink once when the function is
canceled, and the indicator lights will blink
twice when the function is activated.
The entry/exit function can also be canceled or
activated if the ªLift Steering Wheel on Exitº key
or ªSlide Driver Seat Back on Exitº key is turned
to ON or OFF in the ªComfort & Conv.º settings.
(See ªVEHICLE INFORMATION AND SETTINGSº in
the ª4. Monitor, climate, audio, phone and
voice recognition systemsº section.)

If the battery cable is disconnected, or if the
fuse opens, the entry/exit function will not work
though this function was set on before. In such
a case, after connecting the battery or replacing
with a new fuse, open and close the driver's
door more than two times after the ignition
switch is pushed to the ON position once, then
pushed to the LOCK position. The entry/exit
function will be activated.
