earlier in this section). When the front passen-
ger seat is occupied, always pay attention to
the and AIRBAG OFF> indicator lamps. Be aware of the
status of the front-passenger front air bag both
before and during the journey.
If the indicator lamp
remains off and/or the ON> indicator lamp lights up, do not install a
rearward-facing child restraint system on the
front-passenger seat. For further information
seeTroubleshooting later in this section.
Front passenger air bag
The front passenger air bag is designed to
automatically turn OFF when the vehicle is
operated under some conditions as described
below in accordance with U.S. regulations. If
the front passenger air bag is OFF, it will not
inflate in a crash. The driver air bag and other
air bags in your vehicle are not part of this
system. The purpose of the regulation is to help
reduce the risk of injury or death from an
inflating air bag to certain front passenger seat
occupants, such as children, by requiring the
air bag to be automatically turned OFF. Certain
sensors are used to meet the requirements.
The occupant classification sensor in this ve-
hicle is a pressure sensor. It is designed to detect an occupant and objects on the seat by
weight. For example, if a child is in the front
passenger seat, the INFINITI Advanced Air Bag
System is designed to turn the front passenger
air bag OFF in accordance with the regulations.
Also, if a child restraint of the type specified in
the regulations is on the seat, its weight and
the child’s weight can be detected and cause
the air bag to turn OFF. Front passenger seat
adult occupants who are properly seated and
using the seat belt as outlined in this manual
should not cause the front passenger air bag to
be automatically turned OFF. For small adults it
may be turned OFF, however if the occupant
takes his/her weight off the seat cushion (for
example, by not sitting upright, by sitting on an
edge of the seat, or by otherwise being out of
position), this could cause the sensor to turn
the air bag OFF. Always be sure to be seated
and wearing the seat belt properly for the most
effective protection by the seat belt and supple-
mental air bag. INFINITI recommends that pre-
teens and children be properly restrained in a
rear seat. INFINITI also recommends that appro-
priate child restraints and booster seats be
properly installed in a rear seat. If this is not
possible, the occupant classification sensor is
designed to operate as described above to turn
the front passenger air bag OFF for specified
child restraints as required by the regulations.
Failing to properly secure child restraints and touse the ALR mode may allow the restraint to tip
or move in a collision or sudden stop. This can
also result in the passenger air bag inflating in
a crash instead of being OFF. For additional
information about proper use and installation,
refer to
Child restraints in the1. Safety —
seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint
system section.
If the front passenger seat is not occupied, the
front passenger air bag is designed not to
inflate in a crash. However, heavy objects
placed on the seat could result in air bag
inflation, because of the object’s weight de-
tected by the occupant classification sensor.
Other conditions could also result in air bag
inflation, such as if a child is standing on the
seat, or if two children are on the seat, contrary
to the instructions in this manual. Always be
sure that you and all vehicle occupants are
seated and restrained properly.
If the automatic front-passenger air bag deacti-
vation system detects that:
•The front-passenger seat is unoccupied, the
indicator lamp
lights up after the system self-test and re-
mains lit. This indicates that the front pas-
senger front air bag is disabled.

[Front Passenger Airbag
Disabled See Operator’s
Manual] The front-passenger front air bag is disabled during the journey although an adult or person of corresponding stature is on the front
passenger seat.
Front passenger seat adult occupants who are properly seated and using the seat belt as outlined in this manual should not cause the
front passenger air bag to be automatically turned OFF. For small adults it may be turned OFF, however if the occupant takes his/her
weight off the seat cushion (for example, by not sitting upright, by sitting on an edge of the seat, or by otherwise being out of position),
this could cause the sensor to turn the air bag OFF. Always be sure to be seated and wearing the seat belt properly for the most effective
protection by the seat belt and supplemental air bag.
If additional forces are applied to the seat, the system may interpret the occupant’s weight as lower than it actually is.
1. Stop the vehicle in a safe area away from traffic as soon as possible, paying attention to road and traffic conditions.
2. Secure the vehicle against rolling away.
3. Switch the ignition off.
4. Have the occupant on the front-passenger seat step out of the vehicle.
5. Make sure that the seat is unoccupied, close the front passenger door and switch on the ignition.
6. Observe the indicator lights in the center console and the vehicle information display and check the following.
Seat unoccupied and ignition switched on:
- The and indicator lights must light up simultaneously for approximately six
seconds.
- The indicator lights must then light up and remain lit. If the indicator light is on, the automatic
front-passenger front air bag deactivation system has disabled the front-passenger front air bag (see Front passenger air bag and
status light in the1. Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system section)
- the [Front Passenger Airbag Enabled See Operator’s Manual] or [Front Passenger Airbag Disabled See Operator’s Manual] display
messages must not be shown in the vehicle information display.
7. Wait for a period of at least 60 seconds until the necessary system checks have been completed.
8. Make sure that the display messages do not appear in the vehicle information display.
If these conditions are met, the front-passenger seat can be occupied again. Whether the or indicator
light remains lit or goes out depends on how the automatic front passenger front air bag deactivation system classifies the occupant.
If the conditions are not met, the system is not operating correctly.
Have the system checked immediately. It is recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.

Genuine NISSAN accessory cross bars are avail-
able through an INFINITI retailer. It is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for cross-
bar or other equipment information.
Always distribute the luggage evenly on the roof
rack. Observe the maximum load limit shown on
the crossbars or roof carriers when you attach
them on the roof rails. It is recommended you
visit an INFINITI retailer for cross bar or other
equipment information.
Do not apply any load directly to the roof side
rails. Cross bars (if so equipped) must be
installed before applying load/cargo/luggage
to the roof of the vehicle.
Be careful that your vehicle does not exceed the
Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or its Gross
Axle Weight Rating (GAWR front and rear). The
GVWR and GAWR are located on the F.M.V.S.S.
or C.V. M.S.S. certification label (located on the

WARNING
•Drive extra carefully when the vehicle is
loaded at or near the cargo carrying capac-
ity, especially if the significant portion of
that load is carried on the roof rack.
•Heavy loading of the roof rack has the po-
tential to affect the vehicle stability and
handling during sudden or unusual han-
dling maneuvers.
•Roof rack load should be evenly distributed.
•Do not exceed maximum roof rack load
weight capacity.
•Properly secure all cargo with ropes or
straps to help prevent it from sliding or
shifting. In a sudden stop or collision, unse-
cured cargo could cause personal injury.
CAUTION

TIRE PRESSURE
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
monitors tire pressure of all tires. When the low
tire pressure warning light is lit, one or more of
the tires is significantly under-inflated.
The TPMS will activate only when the vehicle is
driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h). Also,
this system may not detect a sudden drop in tire
pressure (for example a flat tire while driving).
For additional information, refer to Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring System (TPMS) in the
5. Starting and driving section.
Tire inflation pressure
Check the tire pressures (including the spare)
often and always prior to long distance trips.
The recommended tire pressure specifications
are shown on the F.M.V.S.S./C.M.V.S.S. label or
the Tire and Loading Information label (if so
equipped) under the Cold Tire Pressure head-
ing. The Tire and Loading Information label is
affixed to the driver side center pillar. Tire pressures should be checked regularly be-
cause:
•Most tires naturally lose air over time.
•Tires can lose air suddenly when driven over
potholes or other objects or if the vehicle
strikes a curb while parking.
The tire pressures should be checked when the
tires are cold. The tires are considered COLD
after the vehicle has been parked for 3 or more
hours, or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) at
moderate speeds.
WARNING
•Improperly inflated tires can fail suddenly
and cause an accident.
•The Gross Vehicle Weight rating (GVWR) is
located on the F.M.V.S. S./C.M.V.S.S. certi-
fication label. The vehicle weight capacity is
indicated on the Tire and Loading Informa-
tion label (if so equipped). Do not load your
vehicle beyond this capacity. Overloading
your vehicle may result in reduced tire life,
unsafe operating conditions due to prema-
ture tire failure, or unfavorable handling
characteristics and could also lead to a se-
rious accident. Loading beyond the speci-
fied capacity may also result in failure of
other vehicle components.
