INSTALLATION ON FRONT
PASSENGER SEAT
WARNING
INever install a rear facing child re-
straint in the front passenger seat.
Supplemental air bags inflate with
great force. A rear facing child re-
straint could be struck by the supple-
mental air bag in a crash and could
seriously injure or kill your child.INISSAN recommends that child re-
straints be installed in the rear seat.
However, if you must install a front
facing child restraint in the front pas-
senger seat, move the passenger
seat to the rearmost position.
IA child restraint with a top tether
strap should not be used in the front
passenger seat.
IThe three-point belt in your vehicle is
equipped with a locking mode retrac-
tor which must be used when install-ing a child restraint.
IFailure to use the retractor's locking
mode will result in the child restraint
not being properly secured. The child
restraint could tip over or otherwise
be unsecured and cause injury to the
child in a sudden stop or collision.
