front passenger seat.
PARCEL SHELF
WARNING
•Never put anything on the parcel shelf,
no matter how small. Any object on it
could cause an injury in case of an acci-
dent or if the brakes are applied sud-
denly.
•Do not leave the parcel shelf in position
when it is disengaged from the grooves.
•Properly secure all cargo to help prevent
it from sliding or shifting. Do not place
cargo higher than the seatbacks. In a
sudden stop or collision, unsecured
cargo could cause personal injury
•Properly secure cargo and do not allow
it to contact the top tether strap when it
is attached to the top tether anchor.
Cargo that is not properly secured or
cargo that contacts the top tether strap
may damage the top tether strap during
a collision. If the cargo cover 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 the cargo floor below its attachment
location. If the cargo cover is not re-
moved, it may damage the top tether
strap during a collision. Your child could
be seriously injured or killed in a collision
if the child restraint top tether strap is
damaged.
•Do not use the cargo cover if the rear
seats are folded down.

If you choose to use a tire dressing, take the
following precautions:
•Use a water-based tire dressing. The coat-
ing on the tire dissolves more easily than
with an oil-based tire dressing.
•Apply a light coat of tire dressing to help
prevent it from entering the tire tread/
grooves (where it would be difficult to re-
move).
•Wipe off excess tire dressing using a dry
towel. Make sure the tire dressing is com-
pletely removed from the tire tread/
grooves.
•Allow the tire dressing to dry as recom-
mended by tire dressing manufacturer.Occasionally remove loose dust from the in-
terior trim, plastic parts and seats using a
vacuum cleaner or soft bristled brush. Wipe
the vinyl and leather surfaces with a clean,
soft cloth dampened in mild soap solution,
then wipe clean with a dry, soft cloth.
Regular care and cleaning is required in order
to maintain the appearance of the leather.
Before using any fabric protector, read the
manufacturer’s recommendations. Some
fabric protectors contain chemicals that may
stain or bleach the seat material.
Use a soft cloth dampened only with water to
clean the meter and gauge lens covers.
WARNING
Do not use water or acidic cleaners (hot
steam cleaners) on the seat. This can dam-
age the seat or occupant classification sen-
sor. This can also affect the operation of
the air bag system and result in serious per-
sonal injury.
CAUTION
•Never use benzine, thinner or any similar
material on the interior surfaces or sur-
face damage may occur. Such damage is
not covered under the INFINITI war-
ranty.
•Small dirt particles can be abrasive
and damaging to leather surfaces and
should be removed promptly. Do not use
saddle soap, car waxes, polishes, oils,
cleaning fluids, solvents, detergents or
ammonia-based cleaners as they dam-
age the leather's natural finish.
•Never use fabric protectors unless rec-
ommended by the manufacturer.
•Do not use glass or plastic cleaner on
meter or gauge lens covers. It may dam-
age the lens covers.
AIR FRESHENERS
Most air fresheners use a solvent that could
affect the vehicle interior. If you use an air
freshener, take the following precautions:
CLEANING INTERIOR
7-4Appearance and care

Allow the belts to dry completely in the shade
before using them. For additional informa-
tion, see "Seat belts".
WARNING
•Do not allow wet seat belts to roll up in
the retractor.
•NEVER use bleach, dye or chemical sol-
vents to clean the seat belts, since these
materials may severely weaken the seat
belt webbing.
CLEANING THE SEAT TRACKS
CAUTION
Periodically clean the seat tracks to pre-
vent reduction of ability to move the seats.
Clean periodically with a high-powered
vacuum cleaner. Dirt and debris may re-
duce the ability to adjust the seat. A wet
cleansing agent may be used if necessary.
GENUINE LEATHER SEAT
COVERS
Automotive leather is typically finished with
coatings which protect the surface from the
sun's damaging rays as well as making it re-sistant to soiling. The finishes used in auto-
motive upholstery are unique; very different
to furniture, garment or shoe leathers.
Leather is extremely resilient and easy to
clean and maintain.
•Before cleaning leather upholstery,
vacuum it to remove dust.
•To clean leather, simply use a soft and
lint-free cloth dampened with lukewarm
water and mild soap. Do not soak the
leather.
•Use a gentle, circular motion. Do not run
the leather or apply extreme pressure
when cleaning.
•Wipe the leather again with another clean,
slightly damp cloth to remove soap resi-
due. Dry with a soft cloth.
Leather should be cleaned whenever it be-
comes soiled. Dust and dirt may harm leather
if allowed to work into the finish.
Never use alcohol, cleaning solvents, oils,
varnishes or polishes on your leather, and
avoid using unknown products as they dam-
age the finish. Only use leather care agents
approved by INFINITI.
Steaming or ironing is not recommended as it
may damage the leather.Leather is a natural product and has natural
surface properties such as unevenness in
structure, marks caused by injury, and subtle
color differences. These are characteristics of
leather and not material faults.
Leather cleaning kit (if equipped)
Spray onto the leather cleaning cloth, then
gently wipe the surface of leather. Use a dry
towel to absorb any excess moisture.
Please refer to the instruction manual pro-
vided with the leather cleaner kit.
Clean light-colored leather more frequently
because soiling on such surfaces is much
more visible.
You can obtain the leather cleaner kit from an
INFINITI retailer.
