forward. Release the lever to lock the seat-
back in position.
The recline feature allows adjustment of the
seatback for occupants of different sizes for
added comfort and to help obtain proper seat
belt fit. For additional information, see “Pre-
cautions on seat belt usage” (P. 1-11). Also,
the seatback can be reclined to allow occu-
pants to rest when the vehicle is stopped and
parked.
WARNING
• After adjustment, gently rock in the seat
to make sure it is securely locked.
• Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the
seatback is reclined. This can be danger-
ous. The shoulder belt will not be against
your body. In an accident, you could be
thrown into it and receive neck or other
serious injuries. You could also slide un-
der the lap belt and receive serious inter-
nal injuries.
• For the most effective protection when
the vehicle is in motion, the seat should
be upright. Always sit well back and up-
right in the seat and adjust the seat belt
properly. For additional information, see
“Precautions on seat belt usage”
(P. 1-11).
ARMREST
The rear bench seat comes equipped with an
armrest. Pull the armrest down as shown.
FLEXIBLE SEATING
WARNING
• Never allow anyone to ride in the cargo
area or on the rear seats when they are in
the fold-down position. In a collision,
people riding in these areas without
proper restraints are more likely to be
seriously injured or killed. •
Do not allow people to ride in any area of
your vehicle that is not equipped with
seats and seat belts. Be sure everyone in
your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat
belt properly.
• Do not allow more than one person to use
the same seat belt.
• Do not fold down the rear seats when
occupants are in the rear seat area or any
luggage is on the rear seats.
– Make sure that the seat path is clear
before moving the seat.
– Be careful not to allow hands or feet
to get caught or pinched in the seat.
• Head restraints/headrests should be ad-
justed properly as they may provide sig-
nificant protection against injury in an
accident. Always replace and adjust
them properly if they have been removed
for any reason.
• If the head restraints/headrests are re-
moved for any reason, they should be se-
curely stored to prevent them from caus-
ing injury to passengers or damage to the
vehicle in case of sudden braking or an
accident.

•When returning the seatbacks to the up-
right position, be certain they are com-
pletely secured in the latched position. If
they are not completely secured, passen-
gers may be injured in an accident or sud-
den stop.
• 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.
Folding the rear bench seat
To fold the rear bench seat flat for maximum
cargo hauling:
1. Remove any object from the rear seat sit- ting area
2. Move each side of the rear seat com- pletely backwards. For additional infor-
mation, see “Forward and backward”
(P. 1-4).
3. Make sure that the head restraints/ headrests are lowered. For additional in-
formation, see “Lower” (P. 1-11). 4. Stow the rear seat belts in the seat belt
hooks found on the sides of the vehicle.
5. Lift up on the recline lever on the side of the outboard seats or pull the lever on
either side of the cargo area to fold the
seatbacks flat.
• If one of the rear seatbacks does not fold flat completely, move the corre-
sponding front power seat forward,
push up the seatback until it latches in
place and remove the head restraints/
headrests. For additional information,
see “Remove” (P. 1-9).

Seat belt hook
When the seat belt is not in use and when
folding down the rear seats, hook the rear
seat belts on the seat belt hooks.
SEAT BELT EXTENDERS
If, because of body size or driving position, it
is not possible to properly fit the lap/shoulder
belt and fasten it, an extender that is compat-
ible with the installed seat belts is available
for purchase. The extender adds approxi-
mately 8 in (200 mm) of length and may be
used for the driver and front passenger seat-
ing positions.It is recommended that you visit an INFINITI
retailer for assistance with purchasing an ex-
tender if an extender is required.
WARNING
• Only INFINITI seat belt extenders, made
by the same company which made the
original equipment seat belts, should be
used with INFINITI seat belts.
• Adults and children who can use the
standard seat belt should not use an ex-
tender. Such unnecessary use could re-
sult in serious personal injury in the event
of an accident.
• Never use seat belt extenders to install
child restraints. If the child restraint is
not secured properly, the child could be
seriously injured or killed in a collision or
a sudden stop.
SEAT BELT MAINTENANCE
• To clean the seat belt webbing, apply a
mild soap solution or any solution recom-
mended for cleaning upholstery or carpet.
Then wipe with a cloth and allow the seat
belts to dry in the shade. Do not allow the
seat belts to retract until they are com-
pletely dry.
• If dirt builds up in the shoulder belt guide of
the seat belt anchors, the seat belts may
retract slowly. Wipe the shoulder belt guide
with a clean, dry cloth.
• Periodically check to see that the seat belt
and the metal components, such as buck-
les, tongues, retractors, flexible wires and
anchors, work properly. If loose parts, de-
terioration, cuts or other damage on the
webbing is found, the entire seat belt as-
sembly should be replaced.
