area inside a vehicle. In a collision, people
riding in these areas are more likely to be
seriously injured or killed.
•Do not allow people to ride in any area of
vehicle that is not equipped with seats and
seat belts.
•Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat
and using a seat belt properly.

vehicle weight including: standard and op-
tional equipment, fluids, emergency tools,
and spare tire assembly. This weight does
not include passengers and cargo.
•GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight) - curb weight
plus the combined weight of passengers and
cargo.
•GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating) - maxi-
mum total combined weight of the unloaded
vehicle, passengers, luggage, hitch, trailer
tongue load and any other optional equip-
ment. This information is located on the
F.M.V.S.S./C.M.V.S.S. label.
•GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating) - maximum
weight (load) limit specified for the front or
rear axle. This information is located on the
F.M.V.S.S./C.M.V.S.S. label.
•GCWR (Gross Combined Weight Rating) - The
maximum total weight rating of the vehicle,
passengers, cargo, and trailer.
•Vehicle Capacity Weight, Load limit, Total
load capacity - maximum total weight limit
specified of the load (passengers and cargo)
for the vehicle. This is the maximum com-
bined weight of occupants and cargo that
can be loaded into the vehicle. If the vehicle
is used to tow a trailer, the trailer tongue
weight must be included as part of the cargo
load. This information is located on the Tire
and Loading Information label.

VEHICLE LOADING INFORMATION
Technical information10-13
This vehicle is equipped with an Event Data
Recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is
to record, in certain crash or near crash-like
situations, such as an air bag deployment or
hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in
understanding how a vehicle’s systems per-
formed. The EDR is designed to record data
related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems
for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds
or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to
record such data as:
•How various systems in your vehicle were
operating.
•Whether or not the driver and passenger
safety belts were buckled/fastened.
•How far (if at all) the driver was depressing
the accelerator and/or brake pedal.
•How fast the vehicle was traveling.
•Sounds are not recorded.
This data can help provide a better understand-
ing of the circumstances in which crashes and
injuries occur.
NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle
only if a nontrivial crash situation occurs; no
data are recorded by the EDR under normal
driving conditions and no personal data (e.g.
name, gender, age and crash location) are recorded. However, other parties, such as law
enforcement, could combine the EDR data with
the type of personally identifying data routinely
acquired during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equip-
ment is required and access to the vehicle or
the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle
manufacturer and INFINITI retailer, other par-
ties, such as law enforcement, that have the
special equipment, can read the information if
they have access to the vehicle or the EDR. EDR
data will only be accessed with the consent of
the vehicle owner or lessee or as otherwise
required or permitted by law.

year and prior can be purchased. A Genuine
INFINITI Service Manual is the best source of
service and repair information for your vehicle.
This manual is the same one used by the factory
trained technicians working at INFINITI retailers.

8. After attaching the child restraint, test it be-fore 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.
10. If the child restraint is installed in the frontpassenger seat, place the ignition switch in
the ON position. Either the
will illuminate depending on the size of the
child and the type of child restraint used.
See “Front passenger air bag and status
light” in the “1. Safety — seats, seat belts
and supplemental restraint system” sec-
tion. After the child restraint is removed and
the seat belt is fully retracted, the ALR
mode (child restraint mode) is canceled.
