Walk-in mechanism:
This feature makes it easier to get in and
out of the rear seat. Use the following
procedure when getting in and out of the
rear seat.
If the sun visor is used, close it to the
original position before operating the walk-
in feature.
1. Pull the seatback lever upward
*1to
fold the front seatback down. Make
sure that the front seatback is comple-
tely folded down.
2. To slide the front seat forward, firmly push the seatback switch
*2. The front seat will move forward.
3. Get in or out of the vehicle.
4. To return the front seat to its original position, raise the seatback and push
the seatback switch
*2again.
. To stop the seat sliding, push the
seatback switch
*2again or push the
seat sliding switch.
. The front passenger seat will stop
returning 7.0 in (177.6 mm) from its
front-most position to retain space for
the rear passenger.
. Depending on the seat position, the
head restraint may contact the roof headlining during the walk-in opera-
tion. To prevent possible interference,
lower the seat using the seat lifter
switch.
CAUTION
.
When returning the seat to its original
position, confirm the seat and seatback
are locked properly.
. Be careful not to pinch your hand or foot
or bump your head when operating the
walk-in seat.
. While operating the walk-in seat, do not
operate the seatback reclining switch.
The reclining motor may be damaged.
. Do not place any objects near the
seatback of the front seats. They may
be pinched and damaged.
The automatic forwarding and reversing
will not work or stop under the following
conditions:
.When the vehicle speed is above 4 MPH
(7 km/h) (driver’s seat only).
. When the seat belt is fastened.
. When the shift lever is not in the P
(Park) position (Automatic Transmis-

front passenger seat, push the ignition
switch to the ON position. The front
passenger air bag status light
may
or may not illuminate depending on the
size of the child and the type of booster
seat used. See “Front passenger air
bag and status light” (P.1-45).
PRECAUTIONS ON SUPPLEMENTAL
RESTRAINT SYSTEM
This Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
section contains important information
concerning the following systems:
.Driver and passenger front impact
supplemental air bags (INFINITI Ad-
vanced Air Bag System)
. Front seat-mounted side-impact supple-
mental air bag system
. Roof-mounted curtain side-impact sup-
plemental air bag
. Seat belt with pretensioners
Supplemental front-impact air bag system:
The INFINITI Advanced Air Bag System can
help cushion the impact force to the head
and chest of the driver and front passenger
in certain frontal collisions.
Front seat-mounted side-impact supple-
mental air bag system: This system can
help cushion the impact force to the chest
and pelvis area of the driver and front
passenger in certain side impact collisions.
The side air bag is designed to inflate on
the side where the vehicle is impacted.
Roof-mounted curtain side-impact supple-
mental air bag system: This system can
help cushion the impact force to the head of occupants in front and rear outboard
seating positions in certain side impact
collisions. The curtain air bags are de-
signed to inflate on the side where the
vehicle is impacted.
These supplemental restraint systems are
designed to
supplementthe crash protec-
tion provided by the driver and passenger
seat belts and are not a substitutefor
them. Seat belts should always be cor-
rectly worn and the occupant seated a
suitable distance away from the steering
wheel, instrument panel and door fin-
ishers. (See “Seat belts” (P.1-13) for
instructions and precautions on seat belt
usage.)
The supplemental air bags operate only
when the ignition switch is in the ON
position.
After pushing the ignition switch to the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warn-
ing light illuminates. The supplemental air
bag warning light will turn off after about
7 seconds if the systems are operational.

WARNING
Front seat-mounted side-impact supplemen-
tal air bags and roof-mounted curtain side-
impact supplemental air bags:
. The front seat-mounted side-impact air
bags and roof-mounted curtain air bags
ordinarily will not inflate in the event of
a frontal impact, rear impact, rollover or
lower severity side collision. Always
wear your seat belts to help reduce the
risk or severity of injury in various kinds
of accidents. .
The seat belts, side air bags and curtain
air bags are most effective when you are
sitting well back and upright in the seat.
The side air bag and curtain air bag
inflate with great force. Do not allow
anyone to place their hand, leg or face
near the side air bag on the side of the
seatback of the front seat or near the
side roof rails. Do not allow anyone
sitting in the front seats or rear outboard
seats to extend their hand out of the
window or lean against the door. Some
examples of dangerous riding positions
are shown in the previous illustrations.
. When sitting in the rear seat, do not
hold onto the seatback of the front seat.
If the supplemental side air bag inflates,
you may be seriously injured. Be espe-
cially careful with children, who should
always be properly restrained. Some
examples of dangerous riding positions
are shown in the illustrations.
. Do not use seat covers on the front
seatbacks. They may interfere with side
air bag inflation.

INFINITI ADVANCED AIR BAG SYS-
TEM (front seats)
This vehicle is equipped with the INFINITI
Advanced Air Bag System for the driver and
front passenger seats. This system is
designed to meet certification require-
ments under U.S. regulations. It is also
permitted in Canada.
However, all of the
information, cautions and warnings in this
manual still apply and must be followed.
The driver supplemental front-impact air
bag is located in the center of the steering
wheel. The front passenger supplemental
front-impact air bag is mounted in the
instrument panel above the glove box. The
front air bags are designed to inflate in
higher severity frontal collisions, although
they may inflate if the forces in another
type of collision are similar to those of a
higher severity frontal impact. They may
not inflate in certain frontal collisions.
Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always
an indication of proper front air bag
operation.
