•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.
Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-13

SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHT
The seat belt warning light reminds you to
fasten your seat belts. The light illuminates if
the engine is started, all doors are closed and
the driver’s and/or front passenger’s seat belt
is unfastened. It will remain illuminated until
the driver and/or front passenger fastens their
seat belt. A chime will sound once the vehicle is
in motion.
If the seat belt warning light flashes, together
with an intermittent warning tone, this means
that the driver or passenger has not fastened
their seat belt, and the speed of the vehicle is
exceeding 15 MPH (25 km/h).
For additional information, refer toWarning
lights, indicator lights and audible reminders
in the 2. Instruments and controls section.
THREE-POINT TYPE SEAT BELT WITH
RETRACTOR
WARNING
•Every person who drives or rides in this ve-
hicle should use a seat belt at all times.
Children should be in the rear seats and in
an appropriate restraint.
•Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the
seatback is reclined. This can be dangerous.
The shoulder belt will not be against your
body. In an accident, you could be thrown
into it and receive neck or other serious in-
juries. You could also slide under the lap
belt and receive serious internal injuries.
•For the most effective protection when the
vehicle is in motion, the seat should be up-
right. Always sit well back and upright in the
seat with both feet on the floor and adjust
the seat belt properly.
•Do not allow children to play with the seat
belts. Most seating positions are equipped
with Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR)
mode seat belts. If the seat belt becomes
wrapped around a child’s neck with the ALR
mode activated, the child can be seriously
injured or killed if the seat belt retracts and
becomes tight. This can occur even if the vehicle is parked. Unbuckle the seat belt to
release the child. If the seat belt cannot be
unbuckled or is already unbuckled, release
the child by cutting the seat belt with a
suitable tool (such as a knife or scissors) to
release the seat belt.
Fastening the seat belts
1. Adjust the seat. (See
Seatsearlier in this
section.)
2. Slowly pull the seat belt out of the retractor and insert the tongue into the buckle until
you hear and feel the latch engage.NIC2743
1-14Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

•The retractor is designed to lock during a
sudden stop or on impact. A slow pulling
motion permits the belt to move and al-
lows you some freedom of movement in
the seat.
•If the seat belt cannot be pulled from its
fully retracted position, firmly pull the belt
and release it. Then smoothly pull the belt
out of the retractor.
3. Position the lap belt portion low and snug on
the hips as shown 4. Pull the shoulder belt portion toward the
retractor to take up extra slack. Be sure the
shoulder belt is routed over your shoulder
and across your chest.
The front passenger seat and the rear seating
positions three-point seat belts have two
modes of operation:
•Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR)
•Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR)
The ELR mode allows the seat belt to extend and
retract to allow the driver and passengers some
freedom of movement in the seat. The ELR locks
the seat belt when the vehicle slows down
rapidly or during certain impacts.
The ALR mode (child restraint mode) locks the
seat belt for child restraint installation. When
the ALR mode is activated, the seat belt cannot be extended again until the seat belt tongue is
detached from the buckle and fully retracted.
The seat belt returns to the ELR mode after the
seat belt fully retracts. For additional informa-
tion, refer to
Child restraints later in this
section. The ALR mode should be used only for
child restraint installation. During normal seat
belt use by an occupant, the ALR mode should
not be activated. If it is activated, it may cause
uncomfortable seat belt tension. It can also
change the operation of the front passenger air
bag. For additional information, refer to Front
passenger air bag and status light in the
1. Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental
restraint system section.
WARNING
When fastening the seat belts, be certain that
the seatbacks are completely secured in the
latched position. If they are not completely
secured, passengers may be injured in an acci-
dent or sudden stop.

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.

10. If the child restraint is installed in the frontpassenger seat, place the ignition switch in
the ON position. The front passenger air
bag status OFF light should illuminate. If
this light is not illuminated refer to Front
passenger air bag and status light in the
1. Safety — seats, seat belts and supple-
mental restraint system section.Move the
child restraint to another seating position.
Have the system checked. It is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service. After the child restraint is removed
and the seat belt is fully retracted, the ALR
mode (child restraint mode) is canceled.
If the indicator
lamp does NOT light continuously when a
child restraint is installed on the front passenger seat, the seat may not be used
for a child restraint. Move the child re-
straint to another position. See
Troubleshooting
later in this section. Have
the system checked. It is recommended you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
Installing top tether strap
WARNING
Child restraint anchorages are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by cor-
rectly fitted child restraints. Under no circum-
stances are they to be used to attach adult seat
belts, or other items or equipment to the ve-
hicle. Doing so could damage the child re-
straint anchorages. The child restraint will not
be properly installed using the damaged an-
chorage, and a child could be seriously injured
or killed in a collision.
The child restraint top tether strap must be
used when installing the child restraint with
seat belts.
First, secure the child restraint with the seat
belt. Outboard seating positions with removable
head restraints/headrests
:
1. If necessary raise or remove the head
restraint/headrest and store it in a secure
place. Be sure to reinstall the head restraint/
headrest when the child restraint 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.
2. Position the top tether strap
1over the
seatback.
3. Secure the tether strap to the tether anchor point
2on the seatback behind the child
restraint.
