2017 INFINITI QX30 service

Your INFINITI represents a new way of thinking about vehicle design. It integrates advanced engineering and superior craftsmanship with a simple,
refined aesthetic sensitivity associated with traditional Japanese 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 performance characteristics of your INFINITI; it also provides important instructions and safety information.
A separate Warranty Information Booklet is included in your Owner’s literature portfolio. 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 requirements
to keep the warranties in effect as well as the INFINITI Roadside Assistance 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 prior to delivery. It is recommended that you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this service. It is important that you familiarize yourself with all disclosures, warnings, cautions and instructions concerning
proper use of such accessories prior to operating the vehicle and/or accessory. It is recommended that you visit an INFINITI retailer for details
concerning the particular accessories with which your vehicle is equipped.

•The seat belt should be properly adjusted to
a snug fit. Failure to do so may reduce the
effectiveness of the entire restraint system
and increase the chance or severity of injury
in an accident. Serious injury or death can
occur if the seat belt is not worn properly.
•Always route the shoulder belt over your
shoulder and across your chest. Never put
the belt behind your back, under your arm or
across your neck. The belt should be away
from your face and neck, but not falling off
your shoulder.
•Position the lap belt as low and snug as
possible AROUND THE HIPS, NOT THE
WAIST. A lap belt worn too high could in-
crease the risk of internal injuries in an ac-
cident.
•Be sure the seat belt tongue is securely fas-
tened to the proper buckle.
•Do not wear the seat belt inside out or
twisted. Doing so may reduce its effective-
ness.
•Do not allow more than one person to use
the same seat belt.
•Never carry more people in the vehicle than
there are seat belts.
•If the seat belt warning light glows continu-
ously while the ignition is turned ON with all
doors closed and all seat belts fastened, it
may indicate a malfunction in the system.
Have the system checked. It is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI retailer for
this service.
•No changes should be made to the seat belt
system. For example, do not modify the seat
belt, add material or install devices that
may change the seat belt routing or tension.
Doing so may affect the operation of the
seat belt system. Modifying or tampering
with the seat belt system may result in seri-
ous personal injury.
•Once a seat belt pretensioner has activated,
they cannot be reused and must be replaced
together with the retractor. It is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI retailer for
this service.
•All seat belt assemblies, including retrac-
tors and attaching hardware, should be in-
spected after any collision. It is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI retailer for
this service. INFINITI recommends that all
seat belt assemblies in use during a colli-
sion be replaced unless the collision was
minor and the belts show no damage andcontinue to operate properly. Seat belt as-
semblies not in use during a collision
should also be inspected and replaced if
either damage or improper operation is
noted.
•All child restraints and attaching hardware
should be inspected after any collision. Al-
ways follow the restraint manufacturer’s in-
spection instructions and replacement rec-
ommendations. The child restraints should
be replaced if they are damaged.
PREGNANT WOMEN
INFINITI recommends that pregnant women use
seat belts. The seat belt should be worn snug,
and always position the lap belt as low as
possible around the hips, not the waist. Place
the shoulder belt over your shoulder and across
your chest. Never put the lap/shoulder belt over
your abdominal area. Contact your doctor for
specific recommendations.
INJURED PERSONS
INFINITI recommends that injured persons use
seat belts. Check with your doctor for specific
recommendations.

Unfastening the seat belts
To unfasten the seat belt, push the button on
the buckle and guide the seat belt as it auto-
matically retracts.
Checking seat belt operation
Seat belt retractors are designed to lock seat
belt movement by two separate methods:
•When the belt is pulled quickly from the
retractor.
•When the vehicle slows down rapidly.
To increase your confidence in the seat belts,
check the operation as follows:
•Grasp the shoulder belt and pull forward
quickly. The retractor should lock and restrict
further belt movement.
If the retractor does not lock during this check,
get the system checked. It is recommended that
you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service, or
to learn more about seat belt operation.Shoulder belt height adjustment (if
equipped)
The shoulder belt anchor height should be
adjusted to the position that is best for you.
(See Fastening the seat belts earlier in this
section).
•To adjust, push the button and then move
the shoulder belt anchor to the desired po-
sition 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 but-
ton to lock the shoulder belt anchor into
position.

Top tether anchor
WARNING
•Child restraint anchorages are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by cor-
rectly fitted child restraints. Under no cir-
cumstances 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 re-
straint will not be properly installed using
the damaged anchorage, and a child could
be seriously injured or killed in a collision.
•If the cargo cover (if so equipped) contacts
the top tether strap when it is attached to
the top tether anchor, remove the cargo
cover from the vehicle or secure it on thecargo floor below its attachment location. If
the cargo cover is not removed, it may dam-
age the top tether strap during a collision. A
child could be seriously injured or killed in a
collision if the top tether strap is damaged.
•Do not allow cargo to contact the top tether
strap when it is attached to the top tether
anchor. Properly secure the cargo so it does
not contact the top tether strap. Cargo that
is not properly secured or cargo that con-
tacts the top tether strap may damage it
during a collision. A child could be seriously
injured or killed in a collision if the top
tether strap is damaged.

FORWARD-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT
INSTALLATION USING THE SEAT BELTS
WARNING
The three-point seat belt with Automatic Lock-
ing Retractor (ALR) must be used when install-
ing a child restraint. Failure to use the ALR
mode will result in the child restraint not being
properly secured. The restraint could tip over
or be loose and cause injury to a child in a
sudden stop or collision. Also, it can change
the operation of the front passenger air bag.
For additional information, refer toFront pas-
senger air bag and status light in the1. Safety
— seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint
system section.
For additional information, refer to all Warnings
and Cautions in the Child safetyin the
1. Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental
restraint system section andChild restraints
in the 1. Safety — seats, seat belts and supple-
mental restraint system section before install-
ing a child restraint. Do not use the lower anchors if the combined
weight of the child and the child restraint
exceeds 65 lb (29.5 kg). If the combined weight
of the child and the child restraint is greater
than 65 lb (29.5 kg), use the vehicle seat belt
(not the lower anchors) to install the child
restraint. Be sure to follow the child restraint
manufacturer’s instructions for installation.
Follow these steps to install a forward-facing
child restraint using the vehicle seat belt in the
rear seats or in the front passenger seat:
1.If you must install a child restraint in the front
seat, it should be placed in a forward-facing
direction only. Move the seat to the rearmost
position. Child restraints for infants must be
used in the rear-facing direction and, there-
fore, must not be used in the front seat.
2. Position the child restraint on the seat. Always follow the child restraint manufactur-
er’s instructions. The back of the child re-
straint should be secured against the vehicle
seatback. If necessary, adjust or remove the
head restraint/headrest to obtain the correct
child restraint fit. If the head restraint/
headrest is removed, store it in a secure
place. Be sure to reinstall the head restraint/
headrest when the child restraint is removed.
