Shoulder belt arm (for Coupe front
seats)
Before fastening the seat belt, pull the shoulder
belt arm forward until it clicks at the lock
position. The arm can also be folded down for
easier access for rear seat passengers.
Pulling the arm forward will allow an easy
access to the belt.
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 that is compatible
with the installed seat belts is available that
can be purchased. The extender adds approxi-mately 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 with purchasing an extender if an
extender is required.
WARNING
●
Only INFINITI seat belt extenders, made by
the same company which made the original
equipment seat belts, should be used with
the INFINITI seat belts.
● Adults and children who can use the stan-
dard seat belt should not use an extender.
Such unnecessary use could result in seri-
ous personal injury in the event of an
accident.
● Never use seat belt extenders to install child
restraints. If the child restraint is not se-
cured properly, the child could be seriously
injured in a collision or a sudden stop.
SEAT BELT MAINTENANCE
● To clean the seat belt webbing, apply a mild
soap solution or any solution recommended
for cleaning upholstery or carpets. Then,
wipe with a cloth and allow the seat belts to
dry in the shade. Do not allow the seat belts
to retract until they are completely dry. ●
If dirt builds up in the shoulder belt guide of
the seat belt anchors, the seat belts may
retract slowly. Wipe the shoulder belt guide
with a clean, dry cloth.
● Periodically check to see that the seat belt
and the metal components such as buckles,
tongues, retractors, flexible wires and an-
chors work properly. If loose parts, deterio-
ration, cuts or other damage on the webbing
is found, the entire seat belt assembly
should be replaced.

PRECAUTIONS ON CHILD RESTRAINTS
WARNING
●Infants and small children should always be
placed in an appropriate child restraint
while riding in the vehicle. Failure to use a
child restraint can result in serious injury or
death.
● Infants and small children should never be
carried on your lap. It is not possible for even
the strongest adult to resist the forces of a
severe accident. The child could be crushed
between the adult and parts of the vehicle.
Also, do not put the same seat belt around
both your child and yourself.
● Even with the INFINITI Advanced Air Bag Sys-
tem, never install a rear-facing child re-
straint in the front seat. An inflating supple-
mental front air bag could seriously injure or
kill your child. A rear-facing child restraint
must only be used in the rear seat. ●
INFINITI recommends that the child restraint
be installed in the rear seat. According to
accident statistics, children are safer when
properly restrained in the rear seat than in
the front seat. If you must install a front-
facing child restraint in the front seat, see
“CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION USING
THE SEAT BELTS” later in this section.
● Improper use or improper installation of a
child restraint can increase the risk or sever-
ity of injury for both the child and other oc-
cupants of the vehicle and can lead to seri-
ous injury or death in an accident.
● Follow all of the child restraint manufactur-
er’s instructions for installation and use.
When purchasing a child restraint, be sure to
select one which will fit your child and ve-
hicle. It may not be possible to properly in-
stall some types of child restraints in your
vehicle.
● If the child restraint is not anchored prop-
erly, the risk of a child being injured in a
collision or a sudden stop greatly increases.
● Child restraint anchor points are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by cor-
rectly fitted child restraints. Under no cir-
cumstances are they to be used for adult
seat belts or harnesses.

LATCH lower anchor point locations
The LATCH lower anchors are located at the rear
of the seat cushion near the seatback. A label is
attached to the seatback to help you locate the
LATCH anchors.
WARNING
●Attach LATCH system compatible child re-
straints only at the locations shown in the
illustration. If a child restraint is not secured
properly, your child could be seriously in-
jured or killed in an accident.
● Do not secure a child restraint in the center
rear seating position using the LATCH an-
chors. The child restraint will not be secured
properly.
● Child restraint anchor points are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by cor-
rectly fitted child restraints. Under no cir-
cumstances are they to be used for adult
seat belts or harnesses.
Installing child restraint LATCH
anchor attachments
LATCH compatible child restraints include two
rigid or webbing-mounted attachments that can
be connected to two lower anchors located at
certain seating positions in your vehicle. With
this system, you do not have to use a vehicle
seat belt to secure the child restraint. Check
your child restraint for a label stating that it is
compatible with LATCH. This information may
also be in the instructions provided by the child
restraint manufacturer.

LATCH child restraints generally require the use
of a top tether strap. (See “TOP TETHER STRAP
CHILD RESTRAINT” later in this section for in-
stallation instructions.)
When installing a child restraint, carefully read
and follow the instructions in this manual and
those supplied with the child restraint. (See
“CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION USING LATCH”
later in this section.)TOP TETHER STRAP CHILD RESTRAINT
If the manufacturer of your child restraint re-
quires the use of a top tether strap, it must be
secured to an anchor point.
WARNING
Child restraint anchor points are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by cor-
rectly fitted child restraints. Under no circum-
stances are they to be used for adult seat belts
or harnesses.
Top tether anchor point locations
Anchor points are located on the rear parcel
shelf.
Installing top tether strap
First, secure the child restraint with the lower
anchors (rear bench outboard seating positions
only) or the seat belt.
1. Flip up the tether anchor cover from theanchor point which is located directly
behind the child seat.

2. If necessary, raise or remove the headrestto position the top tether strap over the
top of the seatback. If the headrest is
removed, store it in a secure place. Be
sure to reinstall the headrest when the
child restraint is removed. SeeAdjust-
able headrest in this section for headrest
adjustment, removal and installation in-
formation.
3. Secure the tether strap to the tether an- chor point on the rear parcel shelf.
4. Refer to the appropriate child restraint installation procedure steps in this sec-
tion before tightening the tether strap.

tether strap, consult your INFINITI retailer for
details.
CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION
USING LATCH
WARNING
●Attach the LATCH system compatible child
restraints only at the locations shown. For
the LATCH lower anchor locations, see
“Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren
System (LATCH)” earlier in this section. If a
child restraint is not secured properly, your
child could be seriously injured or killed in
an accident.
● The LATCH anchors are designed to with-
stand only those loads imposed by correctly
fitted child restraints. Under no circum-
stance are they to be used for adult seat
belts or harnesses.
● Inspect the lower anchors by inserting your
fingers into the lower anchor area and feel-
ing to make sure there are no obstructions
over the LATCH anchors, such as seat belt
webbing or seat cushion material. The child
restraint will not be secured properly if the
LATCH anchors are obstructed.
Front-facing
Follow these steps to install a front-facing child
restraint using the LATCH system:
1. Position the child restraint on the seat.
Always follow the child restraint manufac-
turer’s instructions.

CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION
USING THE SEAT BELTS
WARNING
●Even with the INFINITI Advanced Air Bag Sys-
tem, never install a rear-facing child re-
straint in the front passenger seat. Supple-
mental front air bags inflate with great force.
A rear-facing child restraint could be struck
by the supplemental front air bag in a crash
and could seriously injure or kill your child. ●
INFINITI recommends that child restraints be
installed in the rear seat. However, if you
must install a rear-facing child restraint in
the front passenger seat, move the passen-
ger seat to the rearmost position. Also, be
sure the front passenger air bag status light
is illuminated to indicate the passenger air
bag is OFF. See “Front passenger air bag and
status light” later in this section for details.
● The three-point seat belt in your vehicle is
equipped with an Automatic Locking Retrac-
tor (ALR) which must be used when installing
a child restraint.
● Failure to use the ALR will result in the child
restraint not being properly secured. The re-
straint could tip over or otherwise be unse-
cured and cause injury to the child in a sud-
den stop or collision.
● A child restraint with a top tether strap
should not be used in the front passenger
seat.
The instructions in this section apply to child
restraint installation using the vehicle seat
belts in the rear seat or the front passenger
seat.
Front-facing
Follow these steps to install a front-facing child
restraint using the vehicle seat belt in the rear
seat or in the front passenger seat:
1. If you must install a child restraint in the
front seat, it should be placed in a front-
facing direction only. Move the seat to the
rearmost position. Child restraints for in-
fants must be used in the rear-facing direc-
tion and therefore must not be used in the
front seat.

PRECAUTIONS ON BOOSTER SEATS
WARNING
●Infants and small children should always be
placed in an appropriate child restraint
while riding in the vehicle. Failure to use a
child restraint or booster seat can result in
serious injury or death.
● Infants and small children should never be
carried on your lap. It is not possible for even
the strongest adult to resist the forces of a
severe accident. The child could be crushed
between the adult and parts of the vehicle.
Also, do not put the same seat belt around
both your child and yourself. ●
INFINITI recommends that the booster seat
be installed in the rear seat. According to
accident statistics, children are safer when
properly restrained in the rear seat than in
the front seat. If you must install a booster
seat in the front seat, see “BOOSTER SEAT
INSTALLATION” later in this section.
● A booster seat must only be installed in a
seating position that has a lap/shoulder
belt. Failure to use a three-point type seat
belt with a booster seat can result in a seri-
ous injury in sudden stop or collision.
● Improper use or improper installation of a
booster seat can increase the risk or severity
of injury for both the child and other occu-
pants of the vehicle and can lead to serious
injury or death in an accident.
● Do not use towels, books, pillows or other
items in place of a booster seat. Items such
as these may move during normal driving or
a collision and result in serious injury or
death. Booster seats are designed to be
used with a lap/shoulder belt. Booster seats
are designed to properly route the lap and
shoulder portions of the seat belt over the
strongest portions of a child’s body to pro-
vide the maximum protection during a
collision. ●
Follow all of the booster seat manufacturer’s
instructions for installation and use. When
purchasing a booster seat, be sure to select
one which will fit your child and vehicle. It
may not be possible to properly install some
types of booster seats in your vehicle.
● If the booster seat and seat belt is not used
properly, the risk of a child being injured in a
collision or a sudden stop greatly increases.
● Adjustable seatbacks should be positioned
to fit the booster seat, but as up- right as
possible.
● After placing the child in the booster seat
and fastening the seat belt, make sure the
shoulder portion of the belt is away from the
child’s face and neck and the lap portion of
the belt does not cross the abdomen.
● Do not put the shoulder belt behind the child
or under the child’s arm. If you must install a
booster seat in the front seat, see “BOOSTER
SEAT INSTALLATION” later in this section.
● When your booster seat is not in use, keep it
secured with a seat belt to prevent it from
being thrown around in case of a sudden
stop or accident.
