BOOSTER SEATS
For additional information on installing a
booster seat in your vehicle, follow the instruc-
tions outlined in this section.
Precautions on booster seats
WARNING
If a booster seat and seat belt are not used
properly, the risk of a child being injured or
killed in a sudden stop or collision greatly in-
creases:
•Make sure the shoulder portion of the belt is
away from the child’s face and neck and the
lap portion of the belt does not cross the
stomach.
•Make sure the shoulder belt is not behind
the child or under the child’s arm.
•A booster seat must only be installed in a
seating position that has a lap/shoulder
belt.
NIC2903Rear seat - Type B
Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-35

Booster seats of various sizes are offered by
several manufacturers. When selecting any
booster seat, keep the following points in mind:
•Choose only a booster seat with a label
certifying that it complies with Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard 213 or Canadian
Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213.
•Check the booster seat in your vehicle to be
sure it is compatible with the vehicle’s seat
and seat belt system.
•Make sure the child’s head will be properly
supported by the booster seat or vehicle
seat. The seatback must be at or above the
center of the child’s ears. For example, if a
low back booster seat
1is chosen, the
vehicle seatback must be at or above the
center of the child’s ears. If the seatback is lower than the center of the child’s ears, a
high back booster seat
2should be used.
•If the booster seat is compatible with your
vehicle, place the child in the booster seat
and check the various adjustments to be
sure the booster seat is compatible with the
child. Always follow all recommended proce-
dures.
All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or territo-
ries require that infants and small children be
restrained in an approved child restraint at all
times while the vehicle is being operated.
The instructions in this section apply to booster
seat installation in the rear seats or the front
passenger seat.
Booster seat installation
WARNING
If a booster seat and seat belt are not used
properly, the risk of a child being injured or
killed in a sudden stop or collision greatly in-
creases:
•Make sure the shoulder portion of the belt is
away from the child’s face and neck and the
lap portion of the belt does not cross the
stomach.
•Make sure the shoulder belt is not behind
the child or under the child’s arm.
•A booster seat must only be installed in a
seating position that has a lap/shoulder
belt.

To avoid injury to a child, do not use the lap/
shoulder belt in the Automatic Locking Retrac-
tor (ALR) mode when using a booster seat with
the seat belts.
For additional information, refer to all Warnings
and Cautions in the Child safetyin the
1. Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental
restraint system section,Child restraints in
the 1. Safety — seats, seat belts and supple-
mental restraint system section andBooster
seats in the1. Safety — seats, seat belts and
supplemental restraint system section before
installing a child restraint.
Follow these steps to install a booster seat in
the rear seat or in the front passenger seat: 1.
If you must install a booster seat in the front
seat, move the seat to the rearmost position.
2. Position the booster seat on the seat. Only place it in a front-facing direction. Always
follow the booster seat manufacturer’s in-
structions. 3. The booster seat should be positioned on
the vehicle seat so that it is stable.
If necessary, adjust or remove the head
restraint to obtain the correct booster seat
fit. If the head restraint is removed, store it
in a secure place. Be sure to reinstall the
head restraint when the booster seat is re-
moved.
For additional information about head
restraint/headrest adjustment, removal and
installation, refer to Head
restraints/Headrests in the1. Safety —
seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint
system section.
If the seating position does not have an
adjustable head restraint/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 manufacturer’s in-
structions 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 portion 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 instruc- tions for properly fastening a seat belt
shown in Precautions on seat belt usage
earlier in this section. 7. If the booster seat is installed in the front
passenger seat, place the ignition switch in
the ON position. Either the BAG ON>
1indicator light or GER AIR BAG OFF>
2indicator light
will illuminate depending on the size of the
child and the type of booster seat used. See

the 1. Safety — seats, seat belts and supple-
mental restraint system section.
PRECAUTIONS ON SUPPLEMENTAL
RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)
This Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) sec-
tion contains important information concerning
the following systems:
•Driver and passenger supplemental front im-
pact air bags (INFINITI Advanced Air Bag
System)
•Driver and passenger supplemental knee air
bags
•Front seat-mounted side-impact supplemen-
tal air bag
•Roof-mounted curtain side-impact supple-
mental air bags
•Seat belts with pretensioner
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.

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)
1-38Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
** Click HERE to see "Owner's Manual Supplement" **

Driver’s and passenger’s
supplemental knee air bags
This system can help cushion the impact force
to the driver’s and passenger’s knees in certain
collisions.
Front seat-mounted side-impact
supplemental air bag system
This system can help cushion the impact force
to the chest and pelvis areas of the driver and
front passenger in certain side-impact colli-
sions. The side air bag is designed to inflate on
the side where the vehicle is impacted.
Window bag/roof-mounted curtain
side-impact and rollover
supplemental air bags
This system can help cushion the impact force
to the head of occupants in the outboard seat-
ing positions in certain side-impact or rollover
collisions. In a side impact, the curtain air bags
are designed to inflate on the side where the
vehicle is impacted. In a rollover, curtain air
bags on both sides are designed to inflate and
remain inflated for a short time.
Curtain air bags are also designed to inflate in
certain types of rollover collisions or near roll-
overs. As a result, certain vehicle movements(for example, during severe off-roading) may
cause the curtain air bags to inflate.
The SRS is designed to
supplementthe crash
protection provided by the driver and front
passenger seat belts and is not a substitute for
them. Seat belts should always be correctly
worn and the occupant seated a suitable dis-
tance away from the steering wheel, instrument
panel and front door finishers. For additional
information, see Seat beltsearlier in this
section.
The supplemental air bags operate only when
the ignition switch is placed in the ON position.
After placing the ignition switch in the ON, the
air bag warning light will illuminate. The air bag
warning light will turn off within a few seconds
after the engine is started if the system is opera-
tional. See Warning lights, indicator lights and
audible reminders in the2. Instruments and
controls section for further details.

WARNING
•The front-air bags ordinarily will not inflate
in the event of a side impact, rear impact,
rollover, or lower severity frontal collision.
Always wear the seat belts to help reduce
the risk or severity of injury in accidents.
•The front passenger air bag will not inflate if
the passenger air bag status light is lit or if
the front passenger seat is unoccupied. For
additional information, refer toFront pas-
senger air bag and status light in the
1. Safety — seats, seat belts and supple-
mental restraint system section.
•The seat belts and the front-impact air bags
are most effective when you are sitting well
back and upright in the seat. The front air
bags inflate with great force. Even with the
INFINITI Advanced Air Bag System, if you are
unrestrained, leaning forward, sitting side-
ways, or out of position in any way, you are
at greater risk of injury or death in a crash.
You may also receive serious or fatal inju-
ries from the front air bag if you are up
against it when it inflates. Always sit back
against the seatback and as far away as
practical from the steering wheel. Always
properly use the seat belts.

•The driver and front passenger seat belt
buckles are equipped with sensors that de-
tect if the seat belts are fastened. The
INFINITI Advanced Air Bag System monitors
the severity of a collision and seat belt us-
age then inflates the air bags as needed.
Failure to properly wear seat belts can in-
crease the risk or severity of injury in an
accident.
•The front passenger seat is equipped with
an occupant classification sensor (pressure
sensor) that turns the front passenger air
bag OFF under some conditions. This sensor
is only used in this seat. Failure to be prop-
erly seated and wearing the seat belt can
increase the risk or severity of injury in an
accident. For additional information, refer
toFront passenger air bag and status light
in the 1. Safety — seats, seat belts and
supplemental restraint system section.
•Keep hands on the outside of the steering
wheel. Placing them inside the steering
wheel rim could increase the risk that they
are injured when the front air bag inflates.
WARNING
Never let children ride unrestrained or extend
their hands or face out of the window. Do not
attempt to hold them in your lap or arms. Some
examples of dangerous riding positions are
shown in the illustrations.
WARNING
•Even with the INFINITI Advanced Air Bag
System, never install a rear-facing child re-
straint in the front seat. An inflating front air
bag could seriously injure or kill your child.
For additional information, refer to Child
restraints in the1. Safety — seats, seat
belts and supplemental restraint system
section.
•Children may be severely injured or killed
when the front air bags, side air bags or
curtain air bags inflate if they are not prop-
erly restrained. Pre-teens and children
should be properly restrained in the rear
seat, if possible.
