WARNING
.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 receive 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 in the seat with both feet
on the floor and adjust the seat
properly. (“Precautions on seat
belt usage” page 1-6)
. After adjustment, gently rock in the
seat to make sure it is securely
locked.
. Do not leave children unattended
inside the vehicle. They could un-
knowingly activate switches or con-
trols. Unattended children could
become involved in serious acci-
dents. .
The seatback should not be reclined
any more than needed for comfort.
Seat belts are most effective when
the passenger sits with their back
straight up and contacting the seat.
If the seatback is reclined, the risk
of sliding under the lap belt and
being injured is increased.
CAUTION
When adjusting the seat positions, be
sure not to contact any moving parts to
avoid possible injuries or damage.
NOTICE
Make sure the front seatback does not
contact the rear seat when reclining the
seat. When the front seat is reclined to
the rearmost position, it may contact
the rear seat. This may cause an
indentation in the seatback.
SEATS
Page 54 of 358
Rear seat walk-in
This feature makes it easier to get in and out of
the rear seat. Use the follo\fing procedure \fhen
getting in and out of the rear seat.
1. \bull up the lever
*1, hold the knob*2, and
tilt the seatback for\fard.
2. Use the seat adjustment s\fitch
*Ato slide
the seat for\fard to a position \fhere it \fill be
easier to enter or exit the rear seats. Fold the
shoulder belt guide for easier access to the
rear seat.
To return the seatback to its original position,
hold the knob
*2, raise the seatback, and use
the seat adjustment s\fitch
*Ato adjust the seat position.
CAUTION
.
When returning the seat to its
original position, confirm that the
seat and seatback are locked prop-
erly.
. Be careful not to pinch your hand or
foot or bump your head when oper-
ating the walk-in seat.
. Be careful not to hit your hand or
arm against the vehicle body when
holding the knob
*2and tilting the
seatback. Particularly when the seat
is slid rearward, clearances between
the seat and the vehicle body are
small.
NOTICE
Do not place any objects near the
seatback of the front seats. They may
be pinched and damaged.
WARNING
Head restraints/headrests supplement
the other vehicle safety systems. They
may provide additional protection
against injury in certain rear end colli-
sions.
Head restraints/headrests must be ad-
justed properly, as specified in this
section. Check the adjustment after
someone else uses the seat. Failure to
follow these instructions can reduce the
effectiveness of the head restraints/
headrests. This may increase the risk
of serious injury or death in a collision.

PREGNANT WOMEN
NISSAN recommends that pregnant women use
seat \felts. The seat \felt should \fe worn snug\b
and always position the lap \felt as low as
possi\fle around the hips\b not the waist. Place
the shoulder \felt over your shoulder and across
your chest. Never run the lap/shoulder \felt over
your a\fdominal area. Contact your doctor for
specific recommendations.
INJURED PERSONS
NISSAN recommends that injured persons use
seat \felts. 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.
. 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 receive 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 in the seat with both feet
on the floor and adjust the seat belt
properly.
. Do not allow children to play with
the seat belts. Most seating posi-
tions are equipped with Automatic
Locking Retractor (ALR) mode seat
belts. If the seat belt becomes
wrapped around a child’s neck with
the ALR mode activated, the child
can be seriously injured or killed if
the seat belt retracts and becomes
tight. This can occur even if the
vehicle is parked. Unbuckle the seat
belt to release the child. If the seat
belt can not be unbuckled or is
already unbuckled, release the child
by cutting the seat belt with a
suitable tool (such as a knife or
scissors) to release the seat belt.

Fastening the seat belts
1. Adjust the seat. (“Seats” page 1-�f)
�f. Slo�bly pull the seat belt out of the retractor and insert the tongue into the buckle until
you hear and feel the latch engage.
.The retractor is designed to lock
during a sudden stop or on impact. A
slow pulling motion permits the belt
to move, and allows you some free-
dom of movement in the seat.
.If the seat belt cannot be pulled
from its fully retracted position,
firmly pull the belt and release it.
Then smoothly pull the belt out of the retractor.
3. Position the lap belt portion
low and snug
on the hips as sho�bn.
4. Pull the shoulder belt portion to�bard 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 for the front
passenger and rear seats have t�bo modes of
operation:
. Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR)
. Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR)
The Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) mode
allo�bs the seat belt to extend and retract to
allo�b the driver and passengers some freedom
Page 60 of 358
of movement in the seat. The ELR locks the seat
�felt when the vehicle slows down ra�bidly or
during im�bacts.
The Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) mode or
child restraint mode locks the seat �felt for child
restraint installation.
When the ALR mode is activated the seat �felt
cannot �fe extended again until the seat �felt
tongue is detached from the �fuckle and fully
retracted. The seat �felt returns to the ELR mode
after the seat �felt is fully retracted.
(
“Child restraints” �bage 1-15)
The ALR mode should be used only for
child restraint installation. During normal
seat belt use by an occupant, the ALR
mode should not be activated. If it is
activated it may cause uncomfortable seat
belt tension. It can also change the opera-
tion of the front passenger air bag.
(
“Front passenger air bag and status
light” page 1-41)
WARNING
When fastening the seat belts, be
certain that seatbacks are completely
secured in the latched position. If they
are not completely secured, passengers may be injured in an accident or sudden
stop.
Unfastening the seat belts
To unfasten the seat �felt, �bush the �futton on the
�fuckle. The seat �felt automatically retracts.
Checking seat belt operation
Seat �felt retractors are designed to lock seat
�felt movement �fy two se�barate methods:
.
When the �felt is �bulled quickly from the
retractor.
. When the vehicle slows down ra�bidly.
To increase your confidence in the seat �felts,
check the o�beration as follows:
. Gras�b the shoulder �felt and �bull forward

quickly. The retractor shoul�f lock an�f
restrict further belt �bove�bent.
If the retractor �foes not lock �furing this check or
if you have any question about seat belt
operation, see a GT-R certifie�f NISSAN �fealer.
Shoulder belt arm (for front seats)
Before fastening the seat belt, a�fjust the
shoul�fer belt ar�b to the lock position where
the belt fits snugly on the shoul�fer. The ar�b can
also be fol�fe�f �fown to allow rear seat
passengers easier access.
Pulling the ar�b forwar�f will allow an easy access
to the belt.
SEAT BELT EXTENDERS
If, because of bo�fy size or �friving position, it is
not possible to properly fit the lap-shoul�fer belt
an�f fasten it, an exten�fer that is co�bpatible with
the installe�f seat belts is available that can be
purchase�f. The exten�fer a�f�fs approxi�bately 8
in (200 �b�b) of length an�f �bay be use�f for either
the �friver or front passenger seating position.
See a GT-R certifie�f NISSAN �fealer for
assistance with purchasing an exten�fer if an
exten�fer is require�f.
WARNING
. Only NISSAN seat belt extenders,
made by the same company which
made the original equipment seat
belts, should be used with the
NISSAN seat belts.
. Adults and children who can use the
standard seat belt should not use an
extender. Such unnecessary use
could result in serious personal
injury in the event of an accident.
. Never use seat belt extenders to
install child restraints. If the child
restraint is not secured properly, the
child could be seriously injured in a
Page 62 of 358
collision or a sudden stop.
SEAT BELT MAINTENANCE
.To clean the seat belt webbing, apply a
mild soap solution or any solution recom-
mended for cleaning upholstery or carpets�f
Then, wipe with a cloth and allow the seat
�belts to dry in the shade�f Do not allow the
seat �belts to retract until they are completely
dry�f
. If dirt builds up in the shoulder belt
guide of the seat �belt anchors, the seat
�belts may retract slowly�f Wipe the shoulder
�belt guide with a clean, dry cloth�f
. Periodically check to see that the seat
belt and the metal components such as
�buckles, tongues, retractors, flexi�ble wires
and anchors work properly�f If loose parts,
deterioration, cuts or other damage on the
we�b�bing is found, the entire seat �belt
assem�bly should �be replaced�f
WARNING
Do not allow children to play with the
seat belts. Most seating positions are
equipped with Automatic Locking Re-
tractor (ALR) mode seat belts. If the
seat belt becomes wrapped around a
child’s neck with the ALR mode acti-
vated, the child can be seriously injured
or killed if the seat belt retracts and
becomes tight. This can occur even if
the vehicle is parked. Unbuckle the seat
belt to release the child. If the seat belt
can not be unbuckled or is already
unbuckled, release the child by cutting
the seat belt with a suitable tool (such
as a knife or scissors) to release the
seat belt.
Children need adults to help protect them.
They need to be properly restrained.
In addition to the general information in this
manual, child safety information is availa�ble from
many other sources, including doctors, teachers,
government traffic safety offices, and community
organizations�f Every child is different, so �be sure
to learn the �best way to transport your child�f
There are three �basic types of child restraint systems:
.
Rear-facing child restraint
. Forward-facing child restraint
. Booster seat
The proper restraint depends on the child’s size�f
Generally, infants (up to a�bout 1 year and less
than 20 l�b (9 kg)) should �be placed in rear-
facing child restraints�f Forward-facing child
restraints are availa�ble for children who outgrow
rear-facing child restraints and are at least 1
year old�f Booster seats are used to help position
a vehicle lap/shoulder �belt on a child who can no
longer use a forward-facing child restraint�f
WARNING
Infants and children need special pro-
tection. The vehicle’s seat belts may not
fit them properly. The shoulder belt may
come too close to the face or neck. The
lap belt may not fit over their small hip
bones. In an accident, an improperly
fitting seat belt could cause serious or
fatal injury. Always use appropriate
child restraints.
All U�fS�f states and Canadian provinces or
territories require the use of approved child
