Booster seats of various sizes are offered by
several manufacturers. When selecting any
booster seat, keep the following points in
mind:
• Choose only a booster seat with a labelcertifying that it complies with Federal Mo-
tor Vehicle Safety Standard 213 or Cana-
dian Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 213.
• Check the booster seat in your vehicle to be sure it is compatible with the vehicle’s seat
and seat belt system. • Make sure the child’s head will be properly
supported by the booster seat or vehicle
seat. The seatback must be at or above the
center of the child’s ears. For example, if a
low back booster seat is chosen, the vehicle
seatback must be at or above the center of
the child’s ears. If the seatback is lower than
the center of the child’s ears, a high back
booster seat should be used.
• If the booster seat is compatible with your vehicle, place the child in the booster seat
and check the various adjustments to be
sure the booster seat is compatible with the
child. Always follow all recommended
procedures. All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or
territories require that infants and small
children be restrained in an approved child
restraint at all times while the vehicle is be-
ing operated.
The instructions in this section apply to
booster seat installation in the rear seats or
the front passenger seat.
Booster seat installation
WARNING
To avoid injury to child, do not use the lap/
shoulder belt in the Automatic Locking Re-
tractor (ALR) mode when using a booster
seat with the seat belts.
For additional information, see “Child safety”
(P. 1-25), “Child restraints” (P. 1-28) and
“Booster seats” (P. 1-51) before installing a
child restraint.
Follow these steps to install a booster seat in
the 2nd or 3rd rows or in the front passenger
seat:

For additional information, see “Normal opera-

Front passenger air bag
The front passenger air bag and front pas-
senger supplemental knee air bag are de-
signed to automatically turn OFF when the
vehicle is operated under some conditions as
described below in accordance with U.S.
regulations. If the front passenger air bag and
front passenger supplemental knee air bag
are OFF, they will not inflate in a crash. The
driver air bag and other air bags in your ve-
hicle are not part of this system.
The purpose of the regulation is to help reduce
the risk of injury or death from an inflating air
bag to certain front passenger seat occupants,
such as children, by requiring the air bags to beautomatically turned OFF. Certain sensors are
used to meet the requirements.
The occupant classification sensor in this ve-
hicle is a weight sensor. It is designed to
detect an occupant and objects on the seat
by weight. For example, if a child is in the
front passenger seat, the INFINITI Advanced
Air Bag System is designed to turn the front
passenger air bag and front passenger
supplemental knee air bag OFF in accor-
dance with the regulations. Also, if a child
restraint of the type specified in the regula-
tions is on the seat, its weight and the child’s
weight can be detected and cause the air
bags to turn OFF.
Front passenger seat adult occupants who
are properly seated and using the seat belt as
outlined in this manual should not cause the
front passenger air bag and front passenger
supplemental knee air bag to be automati-
cally turned OFF. For small adults it may be
turned OFF, however, if the occupant takes
his/her weight off the seat cushion (for ex-ample, by not sitting upright, by sitting on an
edge of the seat, or by otherwise being out of
position), this could cause the sensor to turn
the air bags OFF. Always be sure to be
seated and wearing the seat belt properly for
the most effective protection by the seat belt
and supplemental air bag.
INFINITI recommends that pre-teens and
children be properly restrained in a rear seat.
INFINITI also recommends that appropriate
child restraints and booster seats be properly
installed in a rear seat. If this is not possible,
the occupant classification sensor is designed
to operate as described above to turn the
front passenger air bag and front passenger
supplemental knee air bag OFF for specified
child restraints as required by the regulations.
Failing to properly secure child restraints and
to use the ALR mode may allow the restraint
to tip or move in a collision or sudden stop.
This can also result in the front passenger air
bag and front passenger supplemental knee
air bag inflating in a crash instead of being
