INFINITI CUSTOMER CARE PROGRAM
WARNING
∙ Always route the shoulder belt over yourshoulder 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
increase the risk of internal injuries in an
accident. ∙ Be sure the seat belt tongue is securely
fastened to the proper buckle.
∙ Do not wear the seat belt inside out or twisted. Doing so may reduce its
effectiveness.
∙ 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 con- tinuously 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 recommended 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 de-
vices that may change the seat belt rout-
ing or tension. Doing so may affect the
operation of the seat belt system. Modi-
fying or tampering with the seat belt sys-
tem may result in serious personal injury. ∙ Once a seat belt pretensioner(s) have ac-
tivated, they cannot be reused and must
be replaced together with the retractor.
It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service.
∙ All seat belt assemblies, including retrac- tors and attaching hardware, should be
inspected after any collision. It is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for this service. INFINITI recom-
mends that all seat belt assemblies in use
during a collision be replaced unless the
collision was minor and the belts show no
damage and continue to operate prop-
erly. Seat belt assemblies not in use dur-
ing a collision should also be inspected
and replaced if either damage or im-
proper operation is noted.
∙ All child restraints and attaching hard- ware should be inspected after any colli-
sion. Always follow the restraint manu-
facturer’s inspection instructions and
replacement recommendations. The child
restraints should be replaced if they are
damaged.

To increase your confidence in the seat belts,
check the operation as follows.∙ Grasp the shoulder belt and pull forward quickly. The retractor should lock and re-
strict further belt movement.
If the retractor does not lock during this
check, get the system checked. It is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI retailer for
this service, or to learn more about seat belt
operation.

against the neck.
∙ Be sure that the seat belt is not twisted in any way.

REAR-FACING CHILD
RESTRAINT INSTALLATION
USING LATCH
WARNING
Child restraint anchorages are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by cor-
rectly fitted child restraints. Under no cir-
cumstances are they to be used to attach
adult seat belts, or other items or equip-
ment to the vehicle. Doing so could damage
the child restraint anchorages. The child re-
straint will not be properly installed using
the damaged anchorages, and a child could
be seriously injured or killed in a collision.
For additional information, refer to all Warn-
ings and Cautions in the “Child safety” and
“Child restraints” sections of this manual be-
fore installing a child restraint.
Do not use the lower anchors if the combined
weight of the child and the child restraint
exceeds 65 lbs. (29.5 kg). If the combined
weight of the child and the child restraint is
greater than 65 lbs. (29.5 kg), use the vehi-
cle’s seat belt (not the lower anchors) to in- stall the child restraint. Be sure to follow the
child restraint manufacturer’s instructions for
installation.
Follow these steps to install a rear-facing
child restraint in the 2nd row seats using the
LATCH system:
1. Position the child restraint on the seat. Always follow the child restraint manu-
facturer’s instructions.
2. Secure the child restraint anchor attach-ments to the LATCH lower anchors.
Check to make sure the LATCH attach-
ment is properly attached to the lower
anchors.

from side to side while holding the child
restraint near the seat belt path. The
child restraint should not move more
than 1 inch (25 mm), from side to side.
Try to tug it forward and check to see if
the belt holds the restraint in place. If the
restraint is not secure, tighten the seat
belt as necessary, or put the restraint in
another seat and test it again. You may
need to try a different child restraint. Not
all child restraints fit in all types of ve-
hicles. 9. Check to make sure the child restraint is
properly secured prior to each use. If the
seat belt is not locked, repeat steps 2
through 8.

switch in the ON position. The front pas-
senger air bag status light

status light” in this section. Move the
child restraint to another seating posi-
tion. Have the system checked. It is rec-
ommended that you visit an INFINITI
retailer for this service.
