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 differ-
ent 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
instructions 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 posi-
tioned 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 in- structions for properly fastening a seat
belt shown in “Three-point type seat belt
with retractor” (P. 1-16). 7. If the booster seat is installed in the front
passenger seat, place the ignition switch
in the ON position. The front passenger
air bag status light
may or may not
illuminate, depending on the size of the
child and the type of booster seat being
used. For additional information, see
“Front passenger air bag and status light”
(P. 1-52).
PRECAUTIONS ON SRS
This SRS section contains important infor-
mation concerning the following systems:
• Driver and front passenger supplemental front-impact air bag (INFINITI Advanced
Air Bag System)
• Front seat-mounted side-impact supple- mental air bag
• Rear outboard seat-mounted side-impact supplemental air bag system
• Roof-mounted curtain side-impact and rollover supplemental air bag
• Driver and front passenger supplemental knee air bags
• Seat belt with pretensioner(s) (front and rear outboard seats)
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.
LRS0865
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT
SYSTEM (SRS)
Safety-Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-41

Front seat-mounted side-impact supple-
mental air bag system
This system can help cushion the impact
force to the chest area of the driver and front
passenger in certain side-impact collisions.
The side air bags are designed to inflate on
the side where the vehicle is impacted.
Rear outboard seat-mounted side-impact
supplemental air bag system
This system can help cushion the impact
force to the chest area of the rear seat pas-
sengers in certain side-impact collisions. The
side air bags are designed to inflate on the
side where the vehicle is impacted.
Roof-mounted curtain side-impact and roll-
over supplemental air bag system
This system can help cushion the impact
force to the head of occupants in front and
rear outboard seating 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 im-
pacted. In a rollover, the curtain air bags are
designed to inflate and remain inflated for a
short time.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 cor-
rectly worn and the occupant seated a suit-
able distance away from the steering
wheel, instrument panel and door finishers.
For additional information, see “Seat belts”
(P. 1-12).
Driver and front passenger supplemental
knee air bags
This system can help cushion the impact
force to the driver’s and front passenger’s
knees in certain collisions.
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 cor-
rectly worn and the occupant seated a suit-
able distance away from the steering
wheel, instrument panel and door finishers.
For additional information, see “Seat belts”
(P. 1-12). The supplemental air bags operate 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.
1-42Safety-Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

WARNING
• Children may be severely injured or killed
when the front air bags, side air bags or
curtain air bags inflate if they are not
properly restrained. Pre-teens and chil-
dren should be properly restrained in the
rear seat, if possible.
• Even with the INFINITI Advanced Air
Bag System, never install a rear-facing
child restraint in the front seat. An in-
flating front air bag could seriously injure
or kill your child. For additional informa-
tion, see “Child restraints” (P. 1-22).WARNING
Front seat-mounted side-impact supple-
mental air bags and roof-mounted curtain
side-impact and rollover supplemental air
bags:
• The side air bags and curtain air bags
ordinarily will not inflate in the event of
a frontal impact, rear impact, or lower
severity side collision. Always wear your
seat belts to help reduce the risk or se-
verity of injury in various kinds of
accidents.

WARNING
• The seat belts, the side air bags and cur-
tain air bags are most effective when you
are sitting well back and upright in the
seat with both feet on the floor. The side
air bag and curtain air bag inflate with
great force. Do not allow anyone to place
their hand, leg or face near the side air
bag on the side of the seatback of the
front seat or near the side roof rails. Do
not allow anyone sitting in the front
seats or rear outboard seats to extend
their hand out of the window or lean
against the door. Some examples of dan-
gerous riding positions are shown in the
previous illustrations.

•No unauthorized changes should be
made to any components or wiring of the
seat belt system. This may affect the
front air bag system. Tampering with the
seat belt system may result in serious
personal injury.
• It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for work on and around
the front air bags. It is also recommended
that you visit an INFINITI retailer for in-
stallation of electrical equipment. The
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
wiring harnesses* should not be modified
or disconnected. Unauthorized electrical
test equipment and probing devices
should not be used on the air bag system.
• A cracked windshield should be replaced
immediately by a qualified repair facility.
A cracked windshield could affect the
function of the supplemental air bag
system.
*The SRS wiring harness connectors are yel-
low and orange for easy identification.
When selling your vehicle, we request that
you inform the buyer about the front air bag
system and guide the buyer to the appropri-
ate sections in this Owner's Manual.
Front and rear outboard
seat-mounted side-impact
supplemental air bag and
roof-mounted curtain side-impact
and rollover supplemental air bag
systems
The side air bags are located in the outside of
the seatback of the front and rear outboard
seats. The curtain air bags are located in the
side roof rails. All of the information, cau-
tions and warnings in this manual must be
followed. The side air bags and curtain air
bags are designed to inflate in higher severity side collisions, although they may inflate if
the forces in another type of collision are
similar to those of a higher severity impact.
They are designed to inflate on the side
where the vehicle is impacted. They may not
inflate in certain side collisions.
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.
Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an
indication of proper side air bag and curtain
air bag operation.
When the side air bags and curtain air bags
inflate, a fairly loud noise may be heard, fol-
lowed by the release of smoke. 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.
Side air bags, along with the use of seat belts,
help to cushion the impact force on the chest
and pelvic area of the front and rear outboard
occupants. Curtain air bags help to cushion
the impact force to the head of occupants in
the front and rear outboard seating positions.
