seat belts, or other items or equip-
ment to the vehicle. Doing so could
damage the child restraint an-
chorages. The child restraint will not

INSTALLATION USING LATCHRefer to all Warnings and Cautions in the
“Child safety” and “Child restraints” sec-
tions 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 re-
straint. Be sure to follow the child re-
straint manufacturer’s instructions for
installation.
Follow these steps to install a rear-facing
child restraint using the LATCH system:
1. Position the child restraint on the seat.Always follow the child restraint man-
ufacturer’s instructions.

back and as far-away as practical
from the steering wheel or instru-
ment panel. Always use the seat
belts.
. The driver and front passenger
seat belt buckles are equipped
with sensors that detect if the
seat belts are fastened. The Ad-
vanced Air Bag System monitors
the severity of a collision and seat
belt usage then inflates the air
bags as needed. Failure to prop-
erly wear seat belts can increase
the risk or severity of injury in an
accident.
. The front passenger seat is
equipped with an occupant clas-
sification sensor (pattern sensor)
that turns the front passenger air
bag OFF under some conditions.
This sensor is only used in this
seat. Failure to be properly
seated and wearing the seat belt
can increase the risk or severity
of injury in an accident.

body.
The seat belts should be correctly worn
and the driver and passenger seated
upright as far as practical away from the
side air bags. The side air bags and
curtain air bags inflate quickly in order
to help protect occupants. Because of
this, the force of the side air bags and
curtain air bags inflating can increase the
risk of injury if the occupant is too close
to, or is against, these air bag modules
during inflation. In a rollover, the curtain
air bags on both sides are designed to
inflate. Under both side-impact situations,
the curtain air bags will remain inflated
for a short period of time.
The side air bags and curtain air bags
operate only when the ignition switch is
in the ON position.
After placing the ignition switch in the
ON position, the supplemental air bag
warning light illuminates. The air bag
warning light will turn off after about 7
seconds if the systems are operational.

.If the vehicle becomes involved in
a collision but the pretensioner is
not activated, it is recommended
to have the pretensioner system
checked and, if necessary, re-
placed by a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer.
. No unauthorized changes should
be made to any components or
wiring of the pretensioners. This
is to prevent damage to or acci-
dental activation of the preten-
sioners. Tampering with the
pretensioner system may result
in serious personal injury.
. Work around and on the preten-
sioners should be done by a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer. Installa-
tion of electrical equipment
should also be done by a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer. Un-
authorized electrical test equip-
ment and probing devices should
not be used on the pretensioners.
. If you need to dispose of a pre-
tensioner or scrap the vehicle, it is
recommended you contact a
GT-R certified NISSAN dealer. In-
correct disposal procedures
could cause personal injury. The pretensioner system may activate
with the supplemental air bag system in
certain types of collisions. Working with
the seat belt retractor, it helps tighten the
seat belt when the vehicle becomes
involved in certain types of collisions,
helping to restrain front seat occupants.
The pretensioner is encased with the seat
belt retractor. These seat belts are used
the same way as conventional seat belts.
When a pretensioner activates, smoke is
released and a loud noise may be heard.
The smoke is not harmful, and it does not
indicate a fire. Care should be taken not
to inhale it as it may cause irritation and
choking. Those with a history of a breath-
ing condition should get fresh air
promptly.
After pretensioner activation, load limiters
allow the seat belt to release webbing (if
necessary) to reduce forces against the
chest.

accident.
. Be sure the seat belt tongue is
securely 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
vehicle 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 indicate a mal-
function in the system. It is re-
commended you have the system
checked by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer.
. No changes should be made to
the seat belt system. For exam-
ple, do not modify 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. Modifying or tam-
pering with the seat belt system
may result in serious personal injury.
. Once a seat belt pretensioner has
activated, it cannot be reused and
must be replaced together with
the retractor. It is recommended
you see a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer.
. Removal and installation of the
pretensioner system components
should be done by a GT-R certi-
fied NISSAN dealer.
. All seat belt assemblies, including
retractors and attaching hard-
ware, should be inspected after
any collision by a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer. NISSAN recom-
mends that all seat belt assem-
blies in use during a collision 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 im-
proper operation is noted.
. All child restraints and attaching
hardware should be inspected
after any collision. Always follow
the restraint manufacturer’s in- spection instructions and repla-
cement recommendations. The
child restraints should be re-
placed if they are damaged.
