5. Remove any additional slack from the seatbelt; press downward and rearward firmly in
the center of the child restraint to compress
the vehicle seat cushion and seatback while
pulling up on the seat belt. 6. After attaching the child restraint, test it be-
fore you place the child in it. Push it from side
to side while holding the child restraint near
the seat belt path. The child restraint should
not move more than 1 inch (25 mm) , from
side to side. Try to tug it forward and check
to see if the belt holds the restraint in place.
If the restraint is not secure, tighten the seat
belt as necessary, or put the restraint in
another seat and test it again. You may need
to try a different child restraint. Not all child
restraints fit in all types of vehicles. 7. Check to make sure that the child restraint is
properly secured prior to each use. If the
seat belt is not locked, repeat steps 3
through 6.
After the child restraint is removed and the seat
belt fully retracted, the ALR mode (child restraint

REAR-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT
INSTALLATION USING THE SEAT
BELTS — JUMP SEAT (King Cab
models only)
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 restraint 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 pas-
senger air bag. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Front passenger air bag
and status light” in this section.
● A child restraint system will not be in-
stalled properly and the child could be
seriously injured or killed in a sudden
stop or collision.
– Never install a rear-facing child re- straint system on the driver’s side
jump seat.
– Do not install a child restraint system on the passenger’s side jump seat
without unfolding the seat extender.
WARNING
●To install a rear-facing child restraint on
the passenger’s side jump seat, it will
be necessary to move the front passen-
ger’s seat fully forward and place the
front seatback upright or tilt it forward.
Failure to do so may cause the child
restraint to not be installed properly
and cause serious injury or death in a
sudden stop or collision.

FORWARD-FACING CHILD
RESTRAINT INSTALLATION USING
LATCH (Crew Cab models only)
For additional information, refer to all Warnings
and Cautions in the “Child safety” and “Child
restraints” sections of this manual before install-
ing 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 installation. Follow these steps to install a forward-facing
child restraint in the rear seats using the LATCH
system:
1. Position the child restraint on the seat. Al- ways follow the child restraint manufactur-

2. Secure the child restraint anchor attach-ments to the LATCH lower anchors. Check
to make sure the LATCH attachment is prop-
erly attached to the lower anchors.
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. For additional information, refer to “In-
stalling top tether strap” in this section. 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. 3. The back of the child restraint should be
secured against the vehicle seatback.
If necessary, adjust or remove the head
restraint/headrest to obtain the correct child
restraint fit. If the head restraint/headrest is
removed, store it in a secure place. Be sure
to reinstall the head restraint/headrest
when the child restraint is removed. For
additional information about head
restraint/headrest adjustment, refer to
“Head restraints/headrests” in this section. If the seating position does not have an
adjustable head restraint/headrest and it is
interfering with the proper child restraint fit,
try another seating position or a different
child restraint.

●Child restraint anchorages are de-
signed to withstand only those loads
imposed by correctly fitted child re-
straints. Under no circumstances are
they to be used to attach adult seat
belts or other items or equipment to the
vehicle. Doing so could damage the
child restraint anchorages. The child re-
straint will not be properly installed us-
ing the damaged anchorages, and a
child could be seriously injured or killed
in a collision.
The child restraint top tether strap must be used
when installing the child restraint with LATCH
lower anchor attachments.
First, secure the child restraint with the LATCH
lower anchors (rear seating positions) . 1. Pull the cover plate off to access the top tether strap routing bracket for the jump
seat.
2. Route the top tether strap through the rout- ing bracket.
3. Secure the top tether strap to the tether anchor point located between the seat belt
buckles in the center of the vehicle.
4. Refer back to child restraint installation steps before tightening the tether strap. If you have any questions when installing a
top tether strap, it is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
