•Be sure the seat belt tongue is se-
curely fastened to the proper buckle.
• Do not wear the seat belt inside out
or twisted. Doing so may reduce its
effectiveness.
• Do not allow more than one person
to use the same seat belt.
• Never carry more people in the ve-
hicle than there are seat belts.
• If the seat belt warning light glows
continuously while the ignition is
turned on with all doors closed and
all seat belts fastened, it may indi-
cate a malfunction in the system.
Have the system checked. It is rec-
ommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
• No changes should be made to the
seat belt system. For example, do not
modif y the seat belt, add material, or
install devices that may change the
seat belt routing or tension. Doing so
may affect the operation of the seat
belt system. Modif ying or tampering
with the seat belt system may result
in serious personal injury. •
Once seat belt pretensioner(s) have
activated, they cannot be reused and
must be replaced together with the
retractor. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
• All seat belt assemblies, including re-
tractors and attaching hardware,
should be inspected af ter any colli-
sion. It is recommended that you visit
a NISSAN dealer for this service.
NISSAN recommends that all seat
belt assemblies in use during a colli-
sion be replaced unless the collision
was minor and the belts show no
damage and continue to operate
properly. Seat belt assemblies not in
use during a collision should also be
inspected and replaced if either
damage or improper operation is
noted.
• All child restraints and attaching
hardware should be inspected af ter
any collision. Always follow the re-
straint manufacturer's inspection in-
structions and replacement recom-
mendations. The child restraints
should be replaced if they are
damaged.
SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHT AND
CHIME
The driver and front passenger seat is
equipped with an enhanced seat belt re-
minder function. If your vehicle is equipped
with an enhanced seat belt reminder func-
tion, a visual and audible alert will operate if
a driver or front passenger seat belt is un-
buckled at speeds of approximately 9 mph
(15 km/h) or more under the following con-
ditions:
• If the driver seat belt is not fastened.
LRS0786
1-14Safety-Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
Page 35 of 644
• The front passenger’s seat belt is not fas-tened and the seat is occupied by a
passenger.
• The front passenger’s seat belt is not fas- tened and objects or external force on
the passenger seat change the seat belt
reminder classification to Occupied.
The seat belt warning light will flash under
the conditions shown above until the nec-
essary seat belt is securely fastened.
A warning chime will sound for approxi-
mately 90 seconds or until one of the fol-
lowing conditions is met:
• The unbuckled front occupant’s seat belt is securely fastened.
• The seat belt reminder function in the front passenger seat no longer detects
that the front passenger seat is occupied.
• The ignition is turned off or the vehicle is placed in P (Park).
The below situations could result in the
seat belt reminder light being illuminated
and the chime sounding, even with no oc-
cupant present in the passenger seat:
• Heavy objects placed on the seat.
• Someone pushing or pulling on the front passenger seat. • An object placed under the front passen-
ger seat.
• An object placed between the seat cush- ion and center console or between the
seat cushion and the door.
• An object hanging on the seat or placed in the seatback pocket.
• A child restraint or other object pressing against the rear of the seatback.
PREGNANT WOMEN
NISSAN recommends that pregnant
women use seat belts. The seat belt should
be worn snug and always position the lap
belt as low as possible around the hips, not
the waist. Place the shoulder belt over your
shoulder and across your chest. Never run
the lap/shoulder belt over your abdominal
area. Contact your doctor for specific
recommendations.
INJURED PERSONS
NISSAN recommends that injured persons
use seat belts. Check with your doctor for
specific recommendations.
THREE-POINT TYPE SEAT BELT
WITH RETRACTOR
WARNING
• Every person who drives or rides in
this vehicle should use a seat belt at
all times. Children should be in the
rear seats and in an appropriate
restraint.
• Do not ride in a moving vehicle when
the seatback is reclined. 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 injuries.
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.

3. Position the lap belt portionlow and
snug on the hips
OBas shown.
4. Pull the shoulder belt portion toward the retractor to take up extra slack
OC.Be
sure the shoulder belt is routed over
your shoulder and across your chest.
The front passenger seat and the rear
seating positions’ three-point seat belts
have two modes of operation:
• Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR)
• Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) The ELR mode allows the seat belt to ex-
tend and retract to allow the driver and
passengers some freedom of movement
in the seat. The ELR locks the seat belt
when the vehicle slows down rapidly or
during certain impacts.
The ALR mode (child restraint mode) locks
the seat belt for child restraint installation.
When the ALR mode is activated, the seat
belt cannot be extended again until the
seat belt tongue is detached from the
buckle and fully retracted. The seat belt re-
turns to the ELR mode af ter the seat belt
fully retracts. For additional information,
see “Child restraints” (P. 1-23).
The ALR mode should be used only for
child restraint installation. During nor-
mal seat belt use by an occupant, the ALR
mode should not be activated. If it is ac-
tivated, it may cause uncomfortable seat
belt tension. It can also change the op-
eration of the front passenger air bag.
For additional information, see “Front
passenger air bag and status light”
(P. 1-57).
WARNING
When fastening the seat belts, be cer-
tain that the seatbacks are completely
secured in the latched position. If they
are not completely secured, passen-
gers may be injured in an accident or
sudden stop.
