1.If you must install a booster seat in the
front seat, move the seat to the rearmost
position.
2. Position the booster seat on the seat. Only place it in the forward-facing direction. Al-
ways follow the booster seat manufacturer’s
instructions.
3. The booster seat should be positioned on the vehicle seat so that it is stable. If necessary, adjust or remove the head re-
straint or headrest to obtain the correct
booster seat fit. If the head restraint or head-
rest is removed, store it in a secure place.
Be
sure to reinstall the head restraint or
headrest when the booster seat is re-
moved. SeeHead restraints orAdjustable
headrests for head restraint or headrest ad-
justment, removal and installation information. If the seating position does not have an adjust-
able head restraint or headrest and it is inter-
fering with the proper booster seat fit, try an-
other seating position or a different booster
seat.
4. Position the lap portion of the seat belt low and snug on the child’s hips. Be sure to follow
the booster seat manufacturer’s instructions
for adjusting the seat belt routing.
5. Pull the shoulder belt portion of the seat belt toward the retractor to take up extra slack. Be
sure the shoulder belt is positioned across the
top, middle portion of the child’s shoulder. Be
sure to follow the booster seat manufacturer’s
instructions for adjusting the seat belt routing.
6. Follow the warnings, cautions and instruc- tions for properly fastening a seat belt shown
inThree-point type seat belt with retractor.

USB (Universal Serial Bus) memory
WARNING
Do not connect or disconnect the USB
device while driving. Doing so can be a
distraction. If distracted you could lose
control of your vehicle and cause an ac-
cident or serious injury.
CAUTION
Do not force the USB device into the USB port. Inserting the USB device
tilted or up-side-down into the port
may damage the USB device and the
port. Make sure that the USB device is
connected correctly into the USB port.
Do not grab the USB port cover (if so equipped) when pulling the USB de-
vice out of the port. This could damage
the port and the cover.
Do not leave the USB cable in a place where it can be pulled unintentionally.
Pulling the cable may break the wire,
USB device or the port.
To avoid damage and loss of function when using a USB device, note the
following precautions. – Do not bend the cable excessively
(1.6 in [40 mm]) radius minimum.
– Do not twist the cable excessively (more than 180 degrees) .
– Do not pull or drop the cable.
– Do not hit or press the USB port or USB device with hands, feet, or ob-
jects.
– Do not store objects with sharp edges in the storage area where the
cable is stored.
– Do not leave the USB device and attached devices in the vehicle com-
partment. When not in use for ex-
tended periods of time, store the
cable and USB device in a clean,
dust free environment at room tem-
perature and without direct sun ex-
posure.
– Do not use the cable for any other purposes than its intended use in
the vehicle.
The vehicle is not equipped with a USB device.
USB devices should be purchased separately as
necessary. This system cannot be used to format
USB devices. To format a USB device, use a
personal computer. In some states/area, the USB
device for the front seats plays only sound with- out images for regulatory reasons, even when the
vehicle is parked.
This system supports various USB memory de-
vices, USB hard drives and iPod® players. Some
USB devices may not be supported by this sys-
tem.
Partitioned USB devices may not play correctly.
Some characters used in other languages (Chi-
nese, Japanese, etc.) may not appear properly in
the display. Using English language characters
with a USB device is recommended.
General notes for USB use:
The USB device may not function when the
passenger compartment temperature is ex-
tremely high. Lower the temperature before use.
During cold weather or rainy days, the player may malfunction due to humidity. If this occurs,
remove the USB device and dehumidify or ven-
tilate the USB player completely.
Do not connect a USB device if a connector, cable or USB port is wet. Allow the connector,
cable, and USB port to dry completely before
connecting the USB device. (Wait for 24 hours
or more until it is dry.) If the connector and USB
port are exposed to fluids other than water,
evaporative residue may cause a short circuit

CHROME PARTS
Clean chrome parts regularly with a non- abra-
sive chrome polish to maintain the finish.
TIRE DRESSING
NISSAN does not recommend the use of tire
dressings. Tire manufacturers apply a coating to
the tires to help reduce discoloration of the rub-
ber. If a tire dressing is applied to the tires, it may
react with the coating and form a compound. This
compound may come off the tire while driving and
stain the vehicle paint.
If you choose to use a tire dressing, take the
following precautions:
Use a water-based tire dressing. The coating onthe tire dissolves more easily with an oil-based
tire dressing.
Apply a light coat of tire dressing to help prevent it from entering the tire tread/grooves (where it
would be difficult to remove) .
Wipe off excess tire dressing using a dry towel. Make sure the tire dressing is completely re-
moved from the tire tread/grooves.
Allow the tire dressing to dry as recommended by the tire dressing manufacturer. Occasionally remove loose dust from the interior
trim, plastic parts and seats using a vacuum
cleaner or soft bristled brush. Wipe the vinyl and
leather surfaces with a clean, soft cloth damp-
ened in mild soap solution, then wipe clean with a
dry soft cloth.
Regular care and cleaning is required in order to
maintain the appearance of the leather.
Before using any fabric protector, read the manu-
facturer’s recommendations. Some fabric pro-
tectors contain chemicals that may stain or
bleach the seat material.
Use a cloth dampened only with water to clean
the meter and gauge lens.
WARNING
Do not use water or acidic cleaners (hot
steam cleaners) on the seat. This can
damage the seat or occupant classifica-
tion sensor. This can also affect the op-
eration of the air bag system and result in
serious personal injury.
CAUTION
Never use benzine, thinner, or any similar material. Small dirt particles can be abrasive
and damaging to the leather surfaces
and should be removed promptly. Do
not use saddle soap, car waxes, pol-
ishes, oils, cleaning fluids, solvents,
detergents or ammonia-based clean-
ers as they may damage the leather’s
natural finish.
Never use fabric protectors unless rec- ommended by the manufacturer.
Do not use glass or plastic cleaner on meter or gauge lens covers. It may
damage the lens cover.
AIR FRESHENERS
Most air fresheners use a solvent that could affect
the vehicle interior. If you use an air freshener,
take the following precautions:
Hanging-type air fresheners can cause perma-
nent discoloration when they contact vehicle
interior surfaces. Place the air freshener in a
location that allows it to hang free and not
contact an interior surface.
Liquid-type air fresheners typically clip on the vents. These products can cause immediate
damage and discoloration when spilled on inte-
rior surfaces.

3. Remove the license plate bracket and con-nect the arcs from the ovals. Mark the point in
the center of each oval. These are pilot drilling
locations.
Use a 0.49 in (12.5 mm) drill bit for the license
plate screw holes and carefully open holes in
the places marked. (Make sure that the drill
only goes through the fascia.)
4. Install the license plate with two 0.23 in (6 mm) screws.
WARNING
It is extremely dangerous to ride in the cargo area inside the vehicle. In a col-
lision, people riding in these areas are
more likely to be seriously injured or
killed.
Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped
with seats and seat belts.
Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly.
