Storing 3rd row seat belt buckles
Before folding down the seat, put the buckles in
the storage of the seat cushion to avoid drop-
ping it under the seat cushion.
Shoulder belt height adjustment (for
front seats and 2nd row seats)
The shoulder belt anchor height should be
adjusted to the position best for you. (See
“PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT USAGE” earlier in
this section.)
To adjust, push the button
A, and then move
the shoulder belt anchor to the desired posi-
tion, 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. Release the adjustment button to lock
the shoulder belt anchor into position.
WARNING
● 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.
● 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 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.

– Even with the INFINITI Advanced Air BagSystem, never install a rear-facing child
restraint in the front seat. An inflating air
bag could seriously injure or kill a child. A
rear-facing child restraint must only be
used in the rear seat.
– Be sure to purchase a child restraint that will fit the child and vehicle. Some child
restraints may not fit properly in your
vehicle.
– Child restraint anchor points are de- signed to withstand loads from child re-
straints that are properly fitted.
– Never use the anchor points for adult seat belts or harnesses.
– A child restraint with a top tether strap should not be used in the front passenger
seat.
– Keep seatbacks as upright as possible af- ter fitting the child restraint.
– Infants and children should always be placed in an appropriate child restraint
while in the vehicle. ●
When the child restraint is not in use, keep it
secured with the LATCH system or a seat
belt. In a sudden stop or collision, loose ob-
jects can injure occupants or damage the
vehicle.
CAUTION
A child restraint in a closed vehicle can become
very hot. Check the seating surface and buckles
before placing a child in the child restraint.
This vehicle is equipped with a universal child
restraint anchor system, referred to as the
LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren)
system. Some child restraints include rigid or
webbing-mounted attachments that can be con-
nected to these anchors.
For details, see “Lower Anchors and Tethers for
CHildren System (LATCH)” later in this section.
If you do not have a LATCH compatible child
restraint, the vehicle seat belts can be used. Several manufacturers offer child restraints for
infants and small children of various sizes.
When selecting any child restraint, keep the
following points in mind:
●
Choose only a restraint with a label certify-
ing that it complies with Federal Motor Ve-
hicle Safety Standard 213 or Canadian Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard 213.
● Check the child restraint in your vehicle to
be sure it is compatible with the vehicle’s
seat and seat belt system.
● If the child restraint is compatible with your
vehicle, place your child in the child restraint
and check the various adjustments to be
sure the child restraint is compatible with
your child. Choose a child restraint that is
designed for your child’s height and weight.
Always follow all recommended procedures.
All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or territo-
ries require that infants and small children be
restrained in an approved child restraint at all
times while the vehicle is being operated. Cana-
dian law requires the top tether strap on
forward-facing child restraints be secured to the
designated anchor point on the vehicle.

7. Check to make sure that the child re-straint is properly secured prior to each
use. If the seat belt is not locked, repeat
steps 1 through 6.
After the child restraint is removed and the seat
belt fully retracted, the ALR mode (child re-
straint mode) is canceled.
FORWARD-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT
INSTALLATION USING LATCH
Refer to all Warnings and Cautions in the “Child
safety” and “Child restraints” sections before
installing a child restraint.
Follow these steps to install a forward-facing
child restraint using the LATCH system:
1. Position the child restraint on the seat.Always follow the child restraint manufac-
turer’s instructions. 2. Secure the child restraint anchor attach-
ments to the LATCH lower anchors. Check
to make sure the LATCH attachment is
properly attached to the lower anchors.
If the child restraint is equipped with a top
tether strap, route the top tether strap and
secure the tether strap to the tether anchor
point. See “Installing top tether strap” in
this section. Do not install child restraints
that require the use of a top tether strap in
seating positions that do not have a top
tether anchor.
3.The back of the child restraint should be
secured against the vehicle seatback.
If necessary, adjust or remove the head
restraint or headrest to obtain the correct
child restraint fit. If the head restraint or
headrest is removed, store it in a secure
place. Be sure to reinstall the head restraint
or headrest when the child restraint is re-
moved. See “Adjustable head restraint or
headrest” in this section for head restraint
or headrest adjustment information.

a top tether strap can only be used in the center
position. Do not place in an outboard seating
position and attempt to angle the tether strap
to the center position. The center position of the 3rd row bench seat is
the seating position that can use a top tether
strap.
First, secure the child restraint with the seat
belt, as applicable.
1. Position the top tether strap over the top
of the center seating position seatback.
2. Secure the tether strap to the tether an- chor point on the floor behind the child

WARNING
●Always 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.
● Before opening any door, always look for and
avoid oncoming traffic.
● Do not leave children unattended inside the
vehicle. They could unknowingly activate
switches or controls. Unattended children
could become involved in serious accidents.
