1997 QX4 SAFETY FEATURES


Besides giving you the ability to go almost anywhere, the QX4 grants you another freedom: the freedom from worry. Because Infiniti has equipped the QX4 with features that are designed to give you peace of mind. Like dual air bags.* Energy absorbing steering column. Child-proof rear door locks and child seat belt anchors to help you keep your little ones secure. A 4-wheel anti-lock braking system (ABS) that helps give you better steering control while stopping. All surrounded by a sturdy MonoFrame construction.

And to keep your new QX4 as safe as you are, Infiniti installed a vehicle security system (VSS). In the event of an attempted break-in, the VSS disables the QX4's starter motor, making it impossible to drive unless you have a key.

The new QX4. Designed to take you far from your worries.

*With a passenger-side air bag, please be aware that a rear-facing child restraint must NOT be placed in the front passenger seat and should only be used in a rear seat. Always follow the child restraint manufacturer's instructions. See owners manual for details on proper seat belt and child restraint use.

The QX4 features sturdy MONOFRAME CONTRUCTION. Besides making the QX4 stronger and more ridgid, Infiniti's MonoFrame construction allows for the integration of a FRONT STRUT-TYPE SUSPENSION, a first on a luxury SUV. Combine these two technologies with QX4's power rack and pinion steering, and you've got a luxury sport utility vehicle that's as comfortable to drive as a passenger car.

At Infiniti, no detail is too small, especially when it comes to your safety. That's why the QX4's DUAL AIR BAG system features gold plated sensor terminals. The gold plating helps prevent corrosion of these crucial parts, helping to ensure inflation during certain frontal impacts.* During an emergency stop, the QX4's 4-WHEEL ABS BRAKES pulse several times per second, allowing you to steer while braking. A crucial advantage when you're trying to avoid a collision.

 
The QX4 features ADJUSTABLE FRONT SHOULDER BELT ANCHORS that allow you to adjust your seat belt to match your height. The better a seatbelt fits you the better it will protect you. Please remember to always wear yours. The QX4 features a KEYLESS REMOTE ENTRY AND VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM that lets you lock and unlock doors and activate a panic alarm. All from an unobstructed distance of up to 49 feet away.

 
Because dange can strike from all sides, the QX4 features pipe-style steel SIDE-DOOR GUARD BEAMS as well as front and rear crumple zones, both of which are designed to reduce the severity of certain impacts. On the driver's visor of the QX4 are 3 little buttons that activate Infinitis' INTEGRATED HOMELINK® TRANSMITTER. An ingeneous device that you can program to operate your home's radio controlled devices like your garage door opener, your electric gates and even your lighting system.** All from the comfort and safety of your QX4.
