This can be dangerous. The
shoulder belt will not be against
your body. In an accident, you
could be thrown into it and re-
ceive neck or other serious inju-
ries. You could also slide under
the lap belt and receive serious
internal injuries.
. For the most effective protection
when the vehicle is in motion, the
seat should be upright. Always sit
well back and upright in the seat
with both feet on the floor and
adjust the seat belt properly. See
“Precautions on seat belt usage”
(P.1-20).

Folding:
Push and hold the front side of the switch
located on the passenger side of the
cargo room. The corresponding seatback
(R: right side, L: left side) will be folded
down automatically.
Push and hold the rear side of the switch
. The seatback will be returned auto-
matically. The seatback will rise up while
holding the switch.
NOTE:
Operating the power folding seats can
discharge the vehicle battery if the
engine is not running.
CAUTION
When operating the rear power seat-
back return, make sure that the
vehicle is stopped and the transmis-
sion is in the P (Park) position.
WARNING
. Never allow anyone to ride in the
cargo area or on the rear seat
when it is in the fold-down posi-
tion. Use of these areas by pas-
sengers without proper restraints
could result in serious injury in an
accident or sudden stop.
. When returning the seatbacks to
the upright position, be certain
they are completely secured in
the latched position. If they are
not completely secured, passen-

1. Push and hold the correspondingswitch located on the instrument
panel below the audio system. The
seatback will fold down and tip for-
ward. See “Entry to 3rd row seat” (P.1-
6).
SSS1120
2. Push the folded seat down until itlocks in position.
SSS1121
3. Power operation (if so equipped): Foldthe 3rd row seat flat using the
switches located in the cargo area.
See “Power seat adjustment” (P.1-9).
Manual operation (if so equipped):
Fold the 3rd row seat flat using the
strap located on the 3rd row seat-
backs. See “Manual seat adjustment”
(P.1-7).
4. Return 3rd row seats to seating posi- tions by raising the 3rd row seatbacks
to an upright position using the
switches or straps. Make sure the
seatback is locked in position. See
“Power seat adjustment” (P.1-9) or
“Manual seat adjustment” (P.1-7).

seat. Studies show that children are
safer when properly restrained in the
rear seat than in the front seat.
This is especially important because
your vehicle has a supplemental re-
straint system (Air bag system) for the
front passenger. See “Supplemental re-
straint system” (P.1-55).
INFANTS
Infants up to at least 1 year old should be
placed in a rear-facing child restraint.
NISSAN recommends that infants be
placed in child restraints that comply with
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards
or Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Stan-
dards. You should choose a child restraint
that fits your vehicle and always follow
the manufacturer’s instructions for instal-
lation and use.
SMALL CHILDREN
Children that are over 1 year old and
weigh at least 20 lbs (9 kg) should remain
in a rear-facing child restraint as long as
possible up to the height or weight limit
of the child restraint. Children who out-
grow the height or weight limit of the
rear-facing child restraint and are at least
1 year old should be secured in a forward-
facing child restraint with a harness. Refer
to the manufacturer’s instructions for
minimum and maximum weight andheight recommendations. NISSAN recom-
mends that small children be placed in
child restraints that comply with Federal
Motor Vehicle Safety Standards or Cana-
dian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. You
should choose a child restraint that fits
your vehicle and always follow the man-
ufacturer’s instructions for installation
and use.
LARGER CHILDREN
Children should remain in a forward-
facing child restraint with a harness until
they reach the maximum height or
weight limit allowed by the child restraint
manufacturer.
Once a child outgrows the height or
weight limit of the harness-equipped
forward-facing child restraint, NISSAN
recommends that the child be placed in
a commercially available booster seat to
obtain proper seat belt fit. For a seat belt
to fit properly, the booster seat should
raise the child so that the shoulder belt is
properly positioned across the chest and
the top, middle portion of the shoulder.
The shoulder belt should not cross the
neck or face and should not fall off the
shoulder. The lap belt should lie snugly
across the lower hips or upper thighs, not
the abdomen.
A booster seat can only be used in
seating positions that have a three-pointtype seat belt. The booster seat should fit
the vehicle seat and have a label certify-
ing that it complies with Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standards or Canadian
Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.
A booster seat should be used until the
child can pass the seat belt fit test below:
.
Are the child’s back and hips against
the vehicle seatback?
. Is the child able to sit without slouch-
ing?
. Do the child’s knees bend easily over
the front edge of the seat with feet flat
on the floor?
. Can the child safely wear the seat belt
(lap belt low and snug across the hips
and shoulder belt across mid-chest
and shoulder)?
. Is the child able to use the properly
adjusted head restraint/headrest?
. Will the child be able to stay in position
for the entire ride?

.The curtain air bags ordinarily will
not inflate in the event of a front
impact, rear impact, or lower
severity side collision. Always
wear your seat belts to help
reduce the risk or severity of
injury in various kinds of acci-
dents.
. The seat belts, the side air bags
and curtain air bags are most
effective when you are sitting
well back and upright in the seat.
The side air bags and curtain air
bags inflate with great force. Do
not allow anyone to place their
hand, leg or face near the side air
bags 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 dangerous riding positions are
shown in the previous illustra-
tions.
. When sitting in the rear seat, do
not hold onto the seatback of the
front seat. If the side air bag
inflates, you may be seriously
injured. Be especially careful with
children, who should always be properly restrained. Some exam-
ples of dangerous riding posi-
tions are shown in the
illustrations.
. Do not use seat covers on the
front seatbacks. They may inter-
fere with side air bags inflation.

ROOF RACK
Do not apply any load directly to the roof
side rails. Cross bars must be installed
before applying load/cargo/luggage to
the roof of the vehicle. Genuine NISSAN
accessory cross bars are available
through a NISSAN dealer. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer for
additional information.
The service load capacity for the roof side
rails is 221 lb (100 kg), however do not
exceed the accessory cross bars load
capacity.
Be careful that your vehicle does not
exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating
(GVWR) or its Gross Axle Weight Rating(GAWR front and rear). The GVWR and
GAWR are located on the F.M.V.S.S. or C.V.
M.S.S. certification label (located on the
driver’s door pillar). For additional infor-
mation regarding GVWR and GAWR, refer
to “Vehicle loading information” (P.10-13).
WARNING
.
Always install the cross bars onto
the roof side rails before loading
cargo of any kind. Loading cargo
directly onto the roof side rails or
the vehicle’s roof may cause ve-
hicle damage.
. Drive extra carefully when the
vehicle is loaded at or near the
cargo carrying capacity, espe-
cially if the significant portion of
that load is carried on the roof
rack.
. Heavy loading of the roof rack
has the potential to affect the
vehicle stability and handling
during sudden or unusual hand-
ling maneuvers.
. Roof rack load should be evenly
distributed.
. Do not exceed maximum roof
rack load weight capacity.
