WARNING AND INDICATOR LIGHTS

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.
. When folding or returning the
seat(s) to the upright position, to
avoid injury to yourself and
others:
— Make sure that the seat path
is clear before moving the
seat.
— Be careful not to allow hands or feet to get caught or
pinched in the seat.
Stowing 2nd and 3rd row seats
To stow 2nd and 3rd row seats for
maximum cargo capacity:
SSS1119
1. Push and hold the corresponding switch 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-

SSS0290
3. Position the lap belt portionlow and
snug on the hips as shown.
4. Pull the shoulder belt portion toward the retractor to take up extra slack. Be
sure the shoulder belt is routed over
your shoulder and across your chest.
The three-point type seat belts have two
modes of operation:
. Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR)
. Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR)
The Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR)
mode allows the seat belt to extend 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 impacts.
The Automatic Locking Retractor (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
returns to the ELR mode after the seat
belt fully retracts. For additional informa-
tion, see “Child restraints” (P.1-32).
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 activated, it may cause uncomforta-
ble seat belt tension.
WARNING
When fastening the seat belts, be
certain that seatbacks are comple-
tely secured in the latched position.
If they are not completely secured,
passengers may be injured in an
accident or sudden stop.

Stowing 3rd row center seat belt:
When folding down the 3rd row seat, the
3rd center seat belt can be retracted into
a stowed position.
1. Hold the connector tongue
so that
the seat belt does not retract sud-
denly when the tongue is released
from the connector buckle. Release
the connector tongue by inserting a
suitable tool such as key
into the
connector buckle.
2. Store the seat belt tongue into the tongue holder
first.
3. Store the connector tongue into the retractor base
.
WARNING
Do not unfasten the 3rd center seat
belt connector except when folding
down the 3rd seat.
SSS1078
Attaching 3rd row center seat belt:
Always be sure the 3rd center seat belt
connector tongue and connector buckle
are attached. Disconnect only when fold-
ing down the 3rd row seat.
To connect the buckle:
1. Pull out the connector tongue fromthe retractor base
.
2. Pull out the seat belt tongue from the tongue holder
.
3. Pull the seat belt and fasten the connector buckle until it clicks
.
The center seat belt connector tongue
and buckle are identified by the
andmark.
The center seat belt connector tongue
can be attached only into the 3rd center
seat belt connector buckle.
To fasten the seat belt, see “Fastening the
seat belts” (P.1-23).
WARNING
. When attaching the 3rd center
seat belt connector, be certain
that the seatbacks are comple-
tely secured in the latched posi-
tion and the 3rd center seat belt

PRECAUTIONS ON SUPPLEMENTAL
RESTRAINT SYSTEM
This Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
section contains important information
concerning the following systems.
. Driver and passenger supplemental
front-impact air bag (NISSAN Ad-
vanced Air Bag System)
. Driver and front passenger supple-
mental knee air bag
. Front seat-mounted side-impact sup-
plemental air bag
. Roof-mounted curtain side-impact
and rollover supplemental air bag
. Seat belt with pretensioner
Supplemental front-impact air bag sys-
tem: The NISSAN Advanced Air Bag Sys-
tem can help cushion the impact force to
the head and chest of the driver and front
passenger in certain frontal collisions.
Driver and front passenger supplemen-
tal knee air bag system: This system can
help cushion the impact force to the
driver’s and front passenger’s knees in
certain collisions.
Front seat-mounted side-impact sup-
plemental air bag system: This system
can help cushion the impact force to the
chest and pelvis area of the driver and
front passenger in certain side impact
collisions. The supplemental side air bag
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM

1-68Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
place any objects between any
occupant and the steering wheel
or instrument panel. Such objects
may become dangerous projec-
tiles and cause injury if the front
air bags inflate.
. Do not place objects with sharp
edges on the seat. Also, do not
place heavy objects on the seat
that will leave permanent impres-
sions in the seat. Such objects
can damage the seat or occupant
classification sensors (weight
sensors). This can affect the op-
eration of the air bag system and
result in serious personal injury.
. Do not use water or acidic clea-
ners (hot steam cleaners) on the
seat. This can damage the seat or
occupant classification sensors.
This can also affect the operation
of the air bag system and result in
serious personal injury.
. Immediately after inflation, sev-
eral front air bag system compo-
nents will be hot. Do not touch
them; you may severely burn
yourself.
. No unauthorized changes should
be made to any components or
wiring of the supplemental air bag system. This is to prevent
accidental inflation of the supple-
mental air bag or damage to the
supplemental air bag system.
. Do not make unauthorized
changes to your vehicle’s electri-
cal system, suspension system or
front end structure. This could
affect proper operation of the
front air bag system.
. Tampering with the air bag sys-
tem may result in serious perso-
nal injury. Tampering includes
changes to the steering wheel
and the instrument panel assem-
bly by placing material over the
steering wheel pad and above the
instrument panel or by installing
additional trim material around
the air bag system.
. Removing or modifying the front
passenger seat may affect the
function of the air bag system
and result in serious personal
injury.
. Modifying or tampering with the
front passenger seat may result
in serious personal injury. For
example, do not change the front
seats by placing material on the
seat cushion or by installing ad- ditional trim material, such as
seat covers, on the seat that is
not specifically designed to as-
sure proper air bag operation.
Additionally, do not stow any
objects under the front passen-
ger seat or the seat cushion and
seatback. Such objects may inter-
fere with the proper operation of
the occupant classification sen-
sors.
. No unauthorized changes should
be made to any components or
wiring of the seat belt system.
This may affect the front air bag
system. Tampering with the seat
belt system may result in serious
personal injury.
. It is recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer for work on and
around the front air bag. It is also
recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for installation of electrical
equipment. The Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) wiring
harnesses* should not be modi-
fied or disconnected. Unauthor-
ized electrical test equipment
and probing devices should not
be used on the air bag system.
