Infiniti M35 (2010 year). Manual — part 3
● INFINITI recommends that the child restraint
be installed in the rear seat. According to
accident statistics, children are safer when
properly restrained in the rear seat than in
the front seat. If you must install a front-
facing child restraint in the front seat, see
“CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION USING
THE SEAT BELTS” later in this section.
● Improper use or improper installation of a
child restraint can increase the risk or sever-
ity of injury for both the child and other oc-
cupants of the vehicle and can lead to seri-
ous injury or death in an accident.
● Follow all of the child restraint manufactur-
er’s instructions for installation and use.
When purchasing a child restraint, be sure to
select one which will fit your child and ve-
hicle. It may not be possible to properly in-
stall some types of child restraints in your
vehicle.
● If the child restraint is not anchored prop-
erly, the risk of a child being injured in a
collision or a sudden stop greatly increases.
● Child restraint anchor points are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by cor-
rectly fitted child restraints. Under no cir-
cumstances are they to be used for adult
seat belts or harnesses.
● Adjustable seatbacks should be positioned
to fit the child restraint, but as upright as
possible.
● After attaching the child restraint, test it be-
fore you place the child in it. Push it from
side to side while holding the seat near the
LATCH attachment or by 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 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 vehicles.
● When your child restraint is not in use, keep
it secured with the LATCH system or a seat
belt to prevent it from being thrown around
in case of a sudden stop or accident.
CAUTION
Remember that a child restraint left in a closed
vehicle can become very hot. Check the seating
surface and buckles before placing your child in
the child restraint.
This vehicle is equipped with a universal child
restraint lower anchor system, referred to as the
Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren System
or LATCH. Some child restraints include two
rigid or webbing-mounted attachments that can
be connected to these lower anchors. For de-
tails, see “Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHil-
dren System (LATCH)” later in this section.
If you do not have a LATCH compatible child
restraint, the vehicle seat belts can be used.
(See “CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION USING
THE SEAT BELTS” later in this section.) In gen-
eral, child restraints are also designed to be
installed with a lap/shoulder seat belt.
Several manufacturers offer child restraints for
infants and small children of various sizes.
When selecting any child restraint, keep the
following points in mind:
● Choose only a restraint with a label certify-
ing that it complies with Federal Motor Ve-
hicle Safety Standard 213 or Canadian Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard 213.
● Check the child restraint in your vehicle to
be sure it is compatible with the vehicle’s
seat and seat belt system.
● If the child restraint is compatible with your
vehicle, place your child in the child restraint
and check the various adjustments to be

sure the child restraint is compatible with
your child. Choose a child restraint that is
designed for your child’s height and weight.
Always follow all recommended procedures.
All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or territo-
ries require that infants and small children be
restrained in an approved child restraint at all
times while the vehicle is being operated. Cana-
dian law requires the top tether strap on front-
facing child restraints be secured to the desig-
nated anchor point on the vehicle.
LOWER ANCHORS AND TETHERS FOR
CHILDREN SYSTEM (LATCH)
Your vehicle is equipped with special anchor
points that are used with Lower Anchors and
Tethers for CHildren System (LATCH) compatible
child restraints. This system may also be re-
ferred to as the ISOFIX or ISOFIX compatible
system. With this system, you do not have to
use a vehicle seat belt to secure the child
restraint.
The LATCH anchor points are provided to install
child restraints in the rear outboard seating
positions only. Do not attempt to install a child
restraint in the center position using the LATCH
anchors.

LATCH lower anchor point locations
The LATCH anchors are located at the rear of the
seat cushion near the seatback. A label is
attached to the seatback to help you locate the
LATCH anchors.
WARNING
● Attach LATCH system compatible child re-
straints only at the locations shown in the
illustration. If a child restraint is not secured
properly, your child could be seriously in-
jured or killed in an accident.
● Do not secure a child restraint in the center
rear seating position using the LATCH an-
chors. The child restraint will not be secured
properly.
● Child restraint anchor points are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by cor-
rectly fitted child restraints. Under no cir-
cumstances are they to be used for adult
seat belts or harnesses.
Installing child restraint LATCH
anchor attachments
LATCH compatible child restraints include two
rigid or webbing-mounted attachments that can
be connected to two anchors located at certain
seating positions in your vehicle. With this
system, you do not have to use a vehicle seat
belt to secure the child restraint. Check your
child restraint for a label stating that it is
compatible with the LATCH system. This infor-
mation may also be in the instructions provided
by the child restraint manufacturer.

LATCH child restraints generally require the use
of a top tether strap. (See “TOP TETHER STRAP
CHILD RESTRAINT” later in this section for in-
stallation instructions.)
When installing a child restraint, carefully read
and follow the instructions in this manual and
those supplied with the child restraint. (See
“CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION USING LATCH”
later in this section.)
TOP TETHER STRAP CHILD RESTRAINT
If the manufacturer of your child restraint re-
quires the use of a top tether strap, it must be
secured to an anchor point.
WARNING
Child restraint anchor points are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by cor-
rectly fitted child restraints. Under no circum-
stances are they to be used for adult seat belts
or harnesses.
Top tether anchor point locations
Anchor points are located on the rear parcel
shelf.
Installing top tether strap
First secure the child restraint with the LATCH
system (rear outboard seating positions only) or
the seat belt as applicable.
1. Flip up the anchor cover from the anchor
point which is located directly behind the
child seat.
2. Position the top tether strap over the top
of the seatback.

CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION
USING LATCH
WARNING
● Attach LATCH system compatible child re-
straints only at the locations shown. For the
LATCH lower anchor locations, see “Lower
Anchors and Tethers for CHildren System
(LATCH)” earlier in this section. If a child
restraint is not secured properly, your child
could be seriously injured or killed in an
accident.
● The LATCH anchors are designed to with-
stand only those loads imposed by correctly
fitted child restraints. Under no circum-
stance are they to be used for adult seat
belts or harnesses.
● Inspect the lower anchors by inserting your
fingers into the lower anchor area and feel-
ing to make sure there are no obstructions
over the LATCH anchors, such as seat belt
webbing or seat cushion material. The child
restraint will not be secured properly if the
LATCH anchors are obstructed.
Front-facing
Follow these steps to install a front-facing child
restraint using LATCH system:
1. If your vehicle is equipped with rear power
seat adjustment, adjust the rear outboard
seats to the upright and rearmost posi-
tion. (See “REAR SEATS” earlier in this
section.)
2. Position the child restraint on the seat.
Always follow the child restraint manufac-
turer’s instructions.

3. Secure the child restraint anchor attach-
ments to the LATCH lower anchors. Check
to make sure the LATCH attachment is
properly attached to the lower anchors.
4. The back of the child restraint should be
secured against the vehicle seatback. If
necessary, adjust or remove the head
restraint to obtain the correct child re-
straint fit. (See “HEAD RESTRAINTS” ear-
lier in this section.)
If the head restraint is removed, store it in a
secure place. Be sure to reinstall the head
restraint when the child restraint is re-
moved.
If the seating position does not have an
adjustable head restraint and it is interfer-
ing with the proper child restraint fit, try
another seating position or a different child
restraint.

CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION
USING THE SEAT BELTS
WARNING
● Even with the INFINITI Advanced Air Bag Sys-
tem, never install a rear-facing child re-
straint in the front passenger seat. Front air
bags inflate with great force. A rear-facing
child restraint could be struck by the front air
bag in a crash and could seriously injure or
kill your child.

● INFINITI recommends that child restraints be
installed in the rear seat. However, if you
must install a front-facing child restraint in
the front passenger seat, move the passen-
ger seat to the rearmost position. Also, be
sure the front passenger air bag status light
is illuminated to indicate the passenger air
bag is OFF. See “Front passenger air bag and
status light” later in this section for details.
● The three-point seat belt in your vehicle is
equipped with an Automatic Locking Retrac-
tor (ALR) which must be used when installing
a child restraint.
● Failure to use the ALR mode will result in the
child restraint not being properly secured.
The restraint could tip over or otherwise be
unsecured and cause injury to the child in a
sudden stop or collision. Also, it can change
the operation of the front passenger air bag.
See “Front passenger air bag and status
light” later in this section.
● A child restraint with a top tether strap
should not be used in the front passenger
seat.
The instructions in this section apply to child
restraint installation using the vehicle seat
belts in the rear seat or the front passenger
seat.
Front-facing
Follow these steps to install a front-facing child
restraint using the vehicle seat belt in the rear
seat or in the front passenger seat:
1. If your vehicle is equipped with rear power
seat adjustment, adjust the rear outboard
seats to the upright and rearmost posi-
tion. (See “REAR SEATS” earlier in this
section.)
If you must install a child restraint in the front
seat, it should be placed in a front-facing
direction only. Move the seat to the rearmost
position. Child restraints for infants must be
used in the rear-facing direction and there-
fore must not be used in the front seat.

restraint when the child restraint is re-
moved.
If the seating position does not have an
adjustable head restraint and it is interfer-
ing with the proper child restraint fit, try
another seating position or a different child
restraint.
3. Route the seat belt tongue through the
child restraint and insert it into the buckle
until you hear and feel the latch engage.
Be sure to follow the child restraint manu-
facturer’s instructions for belt routing.
4. Pull the shoulder belt until the belt is fully
extended. At this time, the seat belt re-
tractor is in the Automatic Locking Retrac-
tor (ALR) mode (child restraint mode). It

PRECAUTIONS ON BOOSTER SEATS
WARNING
● Infants and small children should always be
placed in an appropriate child restraint
while riding in the vehicle. Failure to use a
child restraint or booster seat can result in
serious injury or death.
● Infants and small children should never be
carried on your lap. It is not possible for even
the strongest adult to resist the forces of a
severe accident. The child could be crushed
between the adult and parts of the vehicle.
Also, do not put the same seat belt around
both your child and yourself.
● INFINITI recommends that the booster seat
be installed in the rear seat. According to
accident statistics, children are safer when
properly restrained in the rear seat than in
the front seat. If you must install a booster
seat in the front seat, see “BOOSTER SEAT
INSTALLATION” later in this section.
● A booster seat must only be installed in a
seating position that has a lap/shoulder
belt. Failure to use a three-point type seat
belt with a booster seat can result in a seri-
ous injury in sudden stop or collision.
● Improper use or improper installation of a
booster seat can increase the risk or severity
of injury for both the child and other occu-
pants of the vehicle and can lead to serious
injury or death in an accident.
● Do not use towels, books, pillows or other
items in place of a booster seat. Items such
as these may move during normal driving or
a collision and result in serious injury or
death. Booster seats are designed to be
used with a lap/shoulder belt. Booster seats
are designed to properly route the lap and
shoulder portions of the seat belt over the
strongest portions of a child’s body to pro-
vide the maximum protection during a
collision.
