2018 INFINITI QX60 seats

bag may cause abrasions or other injuries.
Side air bags and curtain air bags do not
provide restraint to the lower body.
The seat belts should be correctly worn and
the driver and front passenger seated upright
as far as practical away from the side air bag.
Rear seat passengers should be seated as far
away as practical from the door finishers and
side roof rails. The side air bags and curtain
air bags inflate quickly in order to help protect
the occupants. Because of this, the force of
the side air bags and curtain air bags inflating
can increase the risk of injury if the occupant
is too close to, or is against, these air bag
modules during inflation. The side air bag will
deflate quickly after the collision is over.
The curtain air bag will remain inflated for a
short time.
The side air bags and curtain air bags oper-
ate only when the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position.
After placing the ignition switch in the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warning
light illuminates. The supplemental air bag
warning light will turn off after about 7 sec-
onds if the system is operational.WARNING
∙ Do not place any objects near the seat-back of the front seats. Also, do not place
any objects (an umbrella, bag, etc.) be-
tween the front door finisher and the
front seat. Such objects may become
dangerous projectiles and cause injury if
a side air bag inflates.
∙ Right after inflation, several side air bag and curtain air bag system components
will be hot. Do not touch them; you may
severely burn yourself.
∙ No unauthorized changes should be made to any components or wiring of the side
air bag and curtain air bag systems. This
is to prevent damage to or accidental in-
flation of the side air bag and curtain air
bag systems.
∙ Do not make unauthorized changes to your vehicle’s electrical system, suspen-
sion system or side panel. This could af-
fect proper operation of the curtain air
bag systems. ∙ Tampering with the side air bag system
may result in serious personal injury. For
example, do not change the front seats
by placing material near the seatbacks or
by installing additional trim material,
such as seat covers, around the side air
bag.
∙ It is recommended that you visit an INFINITI retailer for work on and around
the side air bag and curtain air bag. It is
also recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for installation of elec-
trical equipment. The SRS wiring har-
nesses* should not be modified or discon-
nected. Unauthorized electrical test
equipment and probing devices should
not be used on the side air bag or curtain
air bag systems.
*The SRS wiring harness or connectors are
yellow or orange for easy identification.
When selling your vehicle, we request that
you inform the buyer about the side air bags
and curtain air bag system and guide the
buyer to the appropriate sections in this
Owner’s Manual.

Seat belt with pretensioner(s)
(front seats)
WARNING
∙ The pretensioner(s) cannot be reused af-ter activation. They must be replaced to-
gether with the retractor and buckle as a
unit.
∙ If the vehicle becomes involved in a colli- sion but pretensioner(s) are not acti-
vated, be sure to have the pretensioner
system checked and, if necessary, re-
placed. It is recommended that you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service.
∙ No unauthorized changes should be made to any components or wiring of the pre-
tensioner system. This is to prevent dam-
age to or accidental activation of the pre-
tensioner(s). Tampering with the
pretensioner system may result in serious
personal injury. ∙ It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for work on and around
the pretensioner system. It is also recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for installation of electrical equip-
ment. Unauthorized electrical test
equipment and probing devices should
not be used on the pretensioner system.
∙ If you need to dispose of the pretension- er(s) or scrap the vehicle, it is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for this service. Incorrect disposal
procedures could cause personal injury.
The pretensioner system may activate with
the supplemental air bag system in certain
types of collisions. Working with the seat belt
retractor, the pretensioner(s) help tighten the
seat belt when the vehicle becomes involved
in certain types of collisions, helping to re-
strain front seat occupants.
The pretensioner(s) are encased within the
seat belt retractor and to the seat belt anchor
affixed to the floor of the vehicle. These seat
belts are used the same way as conventional
seat belts. When pretensioner(s) activate, smoke is re-
leased and a loud noise may be heard. This
smoke is not harmful and does not indicate a
fire. Care should be taken not to inhale it, as it
may cause irritation and choking. Those with
a history of a breathing condition should get
fresh air promptly.
After the pretensioner(s’) activation, load lim-
iters allow the seat belt to release webbing (if
necessary) to reduce forces against the chest.
The supplemental air bag warning light
is used to indicate malfunctions in the preten-
sioner system. For additional information, re-
fer to "Supplemental air bag warning light" in
this section. If the operation of the supple-
mental air bag warning light indicates there is
a malfunction, have the system checked. It is
recommended that you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for this service.
When selling your vehicle, we request that
you inform the buyer about the pretensioner
system and guide the buyer to the appropri-
ate sections in this Owner’s Manual.

Repair and replacement procedure
The front air bags, side air bags, curtain air
bags and pretensioner(s) are designed to in-
flate on a one-time-only basis. As a reminder,
unless it is damaged, the supplemental air
bag warning light remains illuminated after
inflation has occurred. These systems should
be repaired and/or replaced as soon as pos-
sible. It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service.

∙ Once a front air bag, side air bag, or cur-tain air bag has inflated, the air bag mod-
ule will not function again and must be
replaced. Additionally, the activated pre-
tensioner(s) must also be replaced. The
air bag module and pretensioner(s)
should be replaced. It is recommended
that you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service. However, the air bag module and
pretensioner(s) cannot be repaired.
∙ The front air bag, side air bag and curtain air bag systems and the pretensioner sys-
tem should be inspected if there is any
damage to the front end or side portion
of the vehicle. It is recommended that you

∙ If you need to dispose of a supplemental air bag or pretensioner system or scrap
the vehicle, it is recommended that you
visit an INFINITI retailer. Incorrect dis-
posal procedures could cause personal
injury. ∙ If there is an impact to your vehicle from
any direction, your occupant classifica-
tion sensor should be checked to verify it
is still functioning correctly. It is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for this service. The occupant clas-
sification sensor (weight sensor) should
