3. Route the seat belt tongue through the
child restraint and insert it into the
buckle until you hear and feel the latch
engage. Be sure to follow the child
restraint manufacturer’ s instructions
for belt routing.
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 (rear seat installa-
tion only). See “Installing top tether
strap” (P.1-33). 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.

8. After attaching the child restraint, test
it before you place the child in it. Push
it from side to side while holding the
child restraint near the seat belt path.
The child restraint should not move
more than 1 inch (25 mm), from side to
side. Try to tug it forward and check to
see if the belt holds the restraint in
place. If the restraint is not secure,
tighten the seat belt as necessary, or
put the restraint in another seat and
test it again. You may need to try a
different child restraint. Not all child
restraints fit in all types of vehicles. 9. Check to make sure the child restraint
is properly secured prior to each use. If
the seat belt is not locked, repeat steps
2 through 8.

Forward-facing—step 10
10. If the child restraint is installed in the
front passenger seat, place the ignition
switch in the ON position. The front
passenger air bag status light
should illuminate. If this light is not
illuminated, see “Front passenger air
bag and status light” (P.1-44).Move
the child restraint to another seating
position. Have the system checked by
an INFINITI retailer.
After the child restraint is removed and the
seat belt is fully retracted, the ALR mode
(child restraint mode) is canceled.
SSS0791
INSTALLING TOP TETHER STRAP
WARNING
Child restraint anchorages are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by
correctly fitted child restraints. Under no
circumstances are they to be used to attach
adult seat belts, or other items or equip-
ment to the vehicle. Doing so could damage
the child restraint anchorages. The child
restraint will not be properly installed using
the damaged anchorage, and a child could
be seriously injured or killed in a collision.
First, secure the child restraint with the
LATCH lower anchors (rear outboard seat
positions only) or the seat belt, as applic-
able.
1. Flip up the anchor cover from the anchor point which is located directly
behind the child seat.
2. If necessary, raise or remove the head restraint or headrest to position the top
tether strap over the top of the seat-
back. 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
removed.
See “Head restraints/headrests” (P.1-5)
for head restraint or headrest adjust-
ment, removal and installation informa-
tion.
Position the top tether strap over the
top of the seatback.
3. Secure the tether strap to the tether anchor point on the rear parcel shelf.
4. Refer to the appropriate child restraint installation procedure steps in this
section before tightening the tether
strap.

3. The booster seat should be positioned
on the vehicle seat so that it is stable.
If necessary, adjust or remove the head
restraint or headrest to obtain the
correct booster seat 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 booster seat is removed. See“Head
restraints/headrests” (P.1-5) for head
restraint or headrest adjustment, re-
moval and installation information.
If the seating position does not have an
adjustable head restraint or headrest and it is interfering with the proper
booster seat fit, try another seating
position or a different booster seat.
4. Position the lap portion of the seat belt low and snug on the child’s hips. Be
sure to follow the booster seat manu-
facturer’s instructions for adjusting the
seat belt routing.
5. Pull the shoulder belt portion of the seat belt toward the retractor to take up
extra slack. Be sure the shoulder belt is
positioned across the top, middle por-
tion of the child’s shoulder. Be sure to
follow the booster seat manufacturer’s
instructions for adjusting the seat belt
routing.
6. Follow the warnings, cautions and instructions for properly fastening a
seat belt shown in “Seat belts”(P.1-

memory (flash drive). Customers should
prepare USB devices as necessary.
This system cannot be used to format USB
devices. To format a USB device, use a
personal computer.
In some countries, the USB device for the
front seats plays only sound without
images for regulatory reasons, even when
the vehicle is parked.
This system supports various USB memory
devices, USB hard drives and iPod
®
players. Some USB devices may not be
supported by this system.
.Partitioned USB devices may not be
played correctly.
. Some characters used in other lan-
guages (Chinese, Japanese, etc.) are
not displayed properly on the vehicle
center screen. Using English language
characters with a USB device is recom-
mended.
General notes for USB use:
. The USB device may not function when
the passenger compartment tempera-
ture is extremely high. Lower the
temperature before use.
. During cold weather or rainy days, the
player may malfunction due to humid- ity. If this occurs, remove the USB
device and dehumidify or ventilate the
USB player completely.
. Do not connect a USB device if a
connector, cable or USB port is wet.
Allow the connector, cable, and USB
port to dry completely before connect-
ing the USB device. (Wait for 24 hours
or more until it is dry.) If the connector
and USB port are exposed to fluids
other than water, evaporative residue
may cause a short circuit between the
connector pins and USB port. In this
case, replace the cable and USB port.
Otherwise damage to the USB device
and a loss of function may occur.
. If the cable is damaged (insulation cut,
connectors cracked, contamination
such as liquids, dust, dirt, etc. in the
connectors), do not use the cable.
Replace the cable with a new one.
. Do not put a USB device in a location
where static electricity occurs, electrical
noise is generated or hot air from the
air conditioner blows directly on it.
Doing so may cause the data stored on
the USB device to be corrupted.
. Be careful not to do the following or the
cable could be damaged and a loss of function may occur.
—
Bend the cable excessively (1.6 in
(40 mm) radius minimum).
— Twist the cable excessively (more
than 180 degrees).
— Pull or drop the cable.
— Hit or press the USB port or USB
device with hands, feet, or objects.
— Store objects with sharp edges in
the storage area where the cable is
stored.
— Leave the USB device and attached
devices in the vehicle compartment.
When not in use for extended
periods of time, store the cable
and USB device in a clean, dust free
environment at room temperature
and without direct sun exposure.
— Use the cable for any other purposes
than its intended use in the vehicle.

CHROME PARTS
Clean chrome parts regularly with a non-
abrasive chrome polish to maintain the
finish.
TIRE DRESSING
INFINITI does not recommend the use of
tire dressings. Tire manufacturers apply a
coating to the tires to help reduce dis-
coloration of the rubber. If a tire dressing is
applied to the tires, it may react with the
coating and form a compound. This com-
pound may come off the tire while driving
and stain the vehicle paint.
If you choose to use a tire dressing, take
the following precautions:
.Use a water-based tire dressing. The
coating on the tire dissolves more
easily with an oil-based tire dressing.
. Apply a light coat of tire dressing to
help prevent it from entering the tire
tread/grooves (where it would be diffi-
cult to remove). .
Wipe off excess tire dressing using a
dry towel. Make sure the tire dressing
is completely removed from the tire
tread/grooves.
. Allow the tire dressing to dry as
recommended by tire dressing manu-
facturer. Occasionally remove loose dust from the
interior trim, plastic parts and seats using
a vacuum cleaner or soft bristled brush.
Wipe the vinyl and leather surfaces with a
clean, soft cloth dampened in mild soap
solution, then wipe clean with a dry soft
cloth.
Regular care and cleaning is required in
order to maintain the appearance of the
leather.
Before using any fabric protector, read the
manufacturer’
s recommendations. Some
fabric protectors contain chemicals that
may stain or bleach the seat material.
Use a cloth dampened only with water, to
clean the meter and gauge lens.
WARNING
Do not use water or acidic cleaners (hot
steam cleaners) on the seat. This can
damage the seat or occupant classification
sensors. This can also affect the operation
of the air bag system and result in serious
personal injury.
