Your INFINITI represents a new way of
thinking about vehicle design. It integrates
advanced engineering and superior crafts-
manship with a simple, refined aesthetic
sensitivity associated with traditional Ja-
panese culture.
The result is a different notion of luxury
and beauty. The car itself is important, but
so is the sense of harmony that the vehicle
evokes in its driver, and the sense of
satisfaction you feel with the INFINITI—
from the way it looks and drives to the high
level of retailer service.
To ensure that you enjoy your INFINITI to
the fullest, we encourage you to read this
Owner ’s Manual immediately. It explains
all of the features, controls and perfor-
mance characteristics of your INFINITI; it
also provides important instructions and
safety information.
A separate Warranty Information Booklet
is included in your Owner ’sliterature
portfolio. The INFINITI Service and Main-
tenance Guide explains details about
maintaining and servicing your vehicle.
Always carry it with you when you take
your vehicle to an INFINITI retailer. The
Warranty Information Booklet contents
provide complete information about all warranties covering this vehicle, the re-
quirements to keep the warranties in effect
as well as the INFINITI Roadside Assis-
tance program.
Additionally, a separate Customer Care
and Lemon Law Information Booklet will
explain how to resolve any concerns you
may have with your vehicle, as well as
clarify your rights under your state
’s
lemon law.
In addition to factory installed options,
your vehicle may also be equipped with
additional accessories installed by Infiniti
or by your authorized Infiniti retailer prior
to delivery. It is important that you
familiarize yourself with all disclosures,
warnings, cautions and instructions con-
cerning proper use of such accessories
prior to operating the vehicle and/or
accessory. Please see your retailer for
details concerning the particular acces-
sories with which your vehicle is
equipped.READ FIRST —THEN DRIVE SAFELY
Before driving your vehicle, read your
Owner ’s Manual carefully. This will ensure
familiarity with controls and maintenance
requirements, assisting you in the safe
operation of your vehicle.

Hybrid System-2Hybrid System Overview
The INFINITI Direct Response HybridTM
System combines the power of a gasoline
engine and an electric motor to help
minimize fuel consumption and emissions.
Depending on driving conditions, the
vehicle runs on a combination of the
gasoline engine and the electric motor,
whichever is best for those conditions.
Because the gasoline engine charges the
Lithium-ion (Li-ion) battery as needed, the
battery does not have to be charged from
an outside source like an all-electric
vehicle.WARNING
Your vehicle contains a sealed Lithium ion
(Li-ion) high voltage battery. If the Li-ion
battery is disposed of improperly, there is a
risk of severe burns and electrical shock
that may result in serious injury or death
and there is also a risk of environmental
damage.
CAUTION
Do not misuse of Li-ion battery (to use the
Li-ion battery for completely another pur-
pose).
The Li-ion battery is used to drive the
electric motors in the INFINITI Direct
Response Hybrid
TMSystem.
The Li-ion battery has a limited service life.
Contact your INFINITI retailer for informa-
tion about recycling or disposal of the
battery.
WARNING
. The INFINITI Direct Response HybridTM
System uses high voltage up to approxi-
mately 408 volts. The system can be hot
while and after starting. Be careful of
both the high voltage and the high
temperature. Obey the warning labels
attached to the vehicle.
. Never disassemble, remove or replace
high-voltage parts and harnesses as
well as their connectors. Doing so could
cause severe burns or an electric shock
that may result in serious injury or
death. High-voltage harnesses are co-
lored orange. The vehicle high voltage
system has no user serviceable parts.
Take your vehicle to an INFINITI retailer
for any necessary maintenance.
. Never try to remove the service plug
located in the trunk. The service plug is
used only when the vehicle is serviced
by trained technicians wearing personal
protection equipment and is part of the
high voltage system. Touching the ser-
vice plug can cause severe burns or
electric shock that may result in serious
injury or death.

Shoulder belt height adjustment
(front 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 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. 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
securely fixed in position.
. The shoulder belt anchor height should
be adjusted to the position best for you.
Failure to do so may reduce the effec-
tiveness 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 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 assis-
tance 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
standard seat belt should not use an
extender. Such unnecessary use could
result in serious personal injury in the
event of an accident.
. Never use seat belt extenders to install
child restraints. If the child restraint is
not secured 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
