5. Return the 2nd row seat to a seatingposition by raising the 2nd row seatbacks
to an upright position. Make sure the seat-
back is locked in position.
CAUTION
When folding the 2nd row seat for
maximum cargo hauling, be sure that
cargo does not contact the center
console of the captain’s seat (if so
equipped) to avoid possible damage
to the console.
WARNING
Head restraint/headrest supplement
the other vehicle safety systems. They
may provide additional protection
against injury in certain rear end colli-
sions. Adjustable head restraints/head-
rests must be adjusted properly, as
specified in this section. Check the
adjustment after someone else uses
the seat. Do not attach anything to the
head restraint/headrest stalks or re-
move the head restraint/headrest. Do
not use the seat if the head restraint/
headrest has been removed. If the head
restraint/headrest was removed, rein-
stall and properly adjust the head
restraint/headrest before an occupant
uses the seating position. Failure to
follow these instructions can reduce the
effectiveness of the head restraint/
headrest. This may increase the risk of
serious injury or death in a collision.

SSS0508
FRONT-SEAT ACTIVE HEAD RE-
STRAINT
The Active Head Restraint moves forward
utilizing the force that the seatback receives
from the occupant in a rear-end collision. The
movement of the head restraint helps support
the occupant’s head by reducing its backward
movement and helping absorb some of the
forces that may lead to whiplash-type injuries.
Active Head Restraints are effective for colli-
sions at low to medium speeds in which it is said
that whiplash injury occurs most.
Active Head Restraints operate only in certain
rear-end collisions. After the collision, the head
restraints return to their original position.

1-30Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
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 slouching?
. 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?
JVR0473X
If you answered no to any of these questions,
the child should remain in a booster seat using a
three-point type seat belt.
NOTE:
Laws in some communities may follow
different guidelines. Check local and state
regulations to confirm your child is using
the correct restraint system before travel-
ing.
WARNING
Never let a child stand or kneel on any
seat and do not allow a child in the
cargo area. The child could be seriously injured or killed in a sudden stop or
collision.

3. The back of the child restraint should besecured against the vehicle seatback.
If necessary, adjust or remove the head
restraint to obtain the correct child restraint
fit. If the head restraint is removed, store it in
a secure place. Be sure to reinstall the
head restraint when the child restraint
is removed. See “Head restraints/head-
rests” (P.1-13) for head restraint adjustment
information.
If the seating position does not have an
adjustable head restraint or a headrest and it
is interfering with the proper child restraint
fit, try another seating position or a different child restraint.

4. For child restraints that are equipped with
webbing-mounted attachments, remove any
additional slack from the anchor attach-
ments. Press downward and rearward firmly
in the center of the child restraint with your
knee to compress the vehicle seat cushion
and seatback while tightening the webbing
of the anchor attachments.
5. Tighten the tether strap according to the manufacturer’s instructions to remove any
slack.

Installing top tether strap
First, secure the child restraint with the LATCH
lower anchors (2nd row captain’s or bench
outboard seating positions only) .
1. If necessary, raise or remove the headrestraint or headrest to position the top
tether strap over the top of the seatback. If
the head restraint or headrest is removed,
store it in a secure place. Be sure to reinstall
the head restraint or headrest when the child
restraint is removed. See “Head restraints/
headrests” (P.1-13) for head restraint or
headrest adjustment, removal and installa-
tion information.
2. Secure the tether strap to the tether anchor point on the back of each seatback behind
the child restraint.
3. Tighten the tether strap according to the manufacturer’s instructions to remove any
slack. Make sure the head restraint or
headrest does not contact the top tether
strap.
If you have any questions when installing a
top tether strap on the rear seat, it is
recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.
FORWARD-FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT INSTALLATION USING THE
SEAT BELTS
WARNING
. The three-point seat belt with Auto-
matic Locking Retractor (ALR) must
be used when installing a child
restraint. Failure to use the ALR
mode will result in the child re-
straint not being properly secured.
The restraint could tip over or be
loose and cause injury to a child in a
sudden stop or collision. Also, it can
change the operation of the front
passenger air bag. See “Front pas-
senger air bag and status light” (P.1-
60)
. When installing a child restraint
system in the 3rd center position,
both the center seat belt connector
tongue and buckle tongue must be
secured. See “3rd row center seat
belt” (P.1-24) .
SSS0640Forward-facing (front passenger seat) — step 1
Refer to all Warnings and Cautions in the “Child
safety” and “Child restraints” sections before
installing a child restraint.
Do not use the lower anchors if the combined
weight of the child and the child restraint
exceeds 65 lbs (29.5 kg) . If the combined
weight of the child and the child restraint is
greater than 65 lbs (29.5 kg) , use the vehicle’s
seat belt (not the lower anchors) to install the
child restraint. Be sure to follow the child
restraint manufacturer’s instructions for installa-
tion.
Follow these steps to install a forward-facing
child restraint using the vehicle seat belt in the

rear seats or in the front passenger seat:
1.If you must install a child restraint in
the front seat, it should be placed in a
forward-facing direction only. Move the
seat to the rearmost position. Child
restraints for infants must be used in
the rear-facing direction and, therefore,
must not be used in the front seat.
2. Position the child restraint on the seat. Always follow the child restraint manufac-
turer’s instructions.
The back of the child restraint should be
secured against the vehicle seatback.
If necessary, adjust or remove the head
restraint or headrest to obtain the correct
child restraint fit. If the head restraint or
headrest is removed, store it in a secure
place. Be sure to reinstall the head
restraint or headrest when the child
restraint is removed. See “Head re-
straints/headrests” (P.1-13) for head re-
straint or headrest adjustment, removal and
installation information.
If the seating position does not have an
adjustable head restraint or a headrest and it
is interfering with the proper child restraint
fit, try another seating position or a different
child restraint.
SSS0360BForward-facing — step 3
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 manufacturer’s
instructions for belt routing.
If the child restraint is equipped with a top
tether strap, route the top tether strap and
secure the tether strap to the tether anchor
point (rear seat installation only) . See
“Installing top tether strap” (P.1-48) . Do
not install child restraints that require the
use of a top tether strap in seating positions
that do not have a top tether anchor.
SSS0651Forward-facing — step 4
4. Pull the shoulder belt until the belt is fullyextended. At this time, the seat belt retractor
is in the Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR)
mode (child restraint mode) . It reverts to
Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) mode
when the seat belt is fully retracted.
