child lock NISSAN LEAF 2017 1.G User Guide

• If the booster seat is compatible with your ve-hicle, place your child in the booster seat and
check the various adjustments to be sure the
booster seat is compatible with your child. Al-
ways follow all recommended procedures.
All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or
territories require that infants and small
children be restrained in an approved child
restraint at all times while the vehicle is
being operated.
The instructions in this section apply to booster
seat installation in the rear seats or the front
passenger seat.
Booster seat installation
WARNING
To avoid injury to child, do not use the
lap/shoulder belt Automatic Locking Re-
tractor (ALR) mode when using a booster
seat with the seat belts.
For additional information, refer to all Warnings
and Cautions in “Child safety”, “Child restraints”
and “Booster seats” sections of this manual be-
fore installing a child restraint.
Follow these steps to install a booster seat on the
rear seat or in the front passenger seat: 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.
Front passenger seat

is sitting the front passenger seat exits the ve-
hicle, the front passenger air bag status light will
go from OFF to ON for a few seconds and then to
OFF. This is normal system operation and does
not indicate a malfunction.
If a malfunction occurs in the front passenger air
bag system, the supplemental air bag warning
light
, located in the meter and gauges area
of the instrument panel, will be illuminated (blink-
ing or steadily lit) . Have the system checked. It is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer for this service.
Normal operation:
In order for the occupant classification sensor
system to classify the front passenger based on
weight, please follow the precautions and steps
outlined below:
Precautions:
• Make sure that there are no objects weighing over 2.2 lbs (1 kg) hanging on the seat or placed
in the seatback pocket.
• Make sure that a child restraint or other object is not pressing against the rear of the seatback.
• Make sure that the rear passenger is not push- ing or pulling on the back of the front passenger
seat. • Make sure that the front passenger seat or
seatback is not forced back against an object
on the seat or floor behind it.
• Make sure that there is no object placed under the front passenger seat.
Steps:
1. Adjust the seat as outlined in the “Seats” section of this manual. Sit upright, leaning
against the seatback, and centered on the
seat cushion with your feet comfortably ex-
tended to the floor.
2. Make sure there are no objects on your lap.
3. Fasten the seat belt as outlined in the “Seat belts” section of this manual. Front passenger
seat belt buckle status is monitored by the
occupant classification system, and is used
as an input to determine occupancy status.
So, it is highly recommended that the front
passenger fasten their seat belt.
4. Remain in this position for 30 seconds allow- ing the system to classify the front passenger
before the vehicle is put into motion.
5. Ensure proper classification by checking the front passenger air bag status light.
NOTE:
This vehicle’s occupant classification sen-
sor system generally keeps the classifica-
tion locked during driving, so it is important
that you confirm that the front passenger is
properly classified prior to driving. How-
ever, the occupant classification sensor
may recalculate the weight of the occupant
under some conditions (both while driving
and when stopped) , so front passenger
seat occupants should continue to remain
seated as outlined above.
Troubleshooting:
If you think the front passenger air bag status light
is incorrect:
1. If the light is ON with an adult occupying thefront passenger seat:
• Occupant is a small adult — the air bag light is functioning as intended. The front passen-
ger air bag is suppressed.
However, if the occupant is not a small adult, then
this may be due to the following conditions that
may be interfering with the weight sensors:
• Occupant is not sitting upright, leaningagainst the seatback, and centered on the
seat cushion with his/her feet comfortably
extended to the floor.

LEAF dealer for registration. This is because the
registration process will erase the memory of all
key codes previously registered into the NISSAN
Vehicle Immobilizer System. After the registration
process, these components will only recognize
keys coded into the NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer
System during registration. Any key that is not
given to the dealer at the time of registration will
no longer be able to start your vehicle.
CAUTION
Do not allow the immobilizer system key,
which contains an electrical transponder,
to come into contact with water or salt
water. This could affect system function.
WARNING
• Always have the doors locked while driving. Along with the use of seat
belts, this provides greater safety in
the event of an accident by helping to
prevent persons from being thrown
from the vehicle. This also helps keep
children and others from unintention-
ally opening the doors, and will help
keep out intruders.
• Before opening any door, always look for and avoid oncoming traffic.
• To help avoid risk of injury or death through unintended operation of the
vehicle and or its systems, including
entrapment in windows or inadvertent
door lock activation, do not leave chil-
dren, people who require the assis-
tance of others or pets unattended in
your vehicle. Additionally, the tem-
perature inside a closed vehicle on a
warm day can quickly become high
enough to cause a significant risk of
injury or death to people and pets.
When the doors are locked using one of the
following methods, the doors cannot be opened
using the inside or outside door handles. The
doors must be unlocked to open the doors.
LOCKING WITH MECHANICAL KEY
(DRIVER’S SIDE ONLY)
The power door lock system allows you to lock or
unlock all doors simultaneously using the me-
chanical key.
• Turning the driver’s door key cylinder towards the front of the vehicle
1will lock all doors and
the rear hatch.

AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS
• All doors lock automatically when the vehiclespeed reaches 15 mph (24 km/h) .
• All doors unlock automatically when the power switch is placed in the OFF position.
CHILD SAFETY REAR DOOR LOCK
Child safety rear door locks help prevent the rear
doors from being opened accidentally, especially
when small children are in the vehicle.
When the levers are in the lock position
1,
the rear doors can be opened only from the
outside.
To disengage, move the levers to the unlock
position

door and the rear hatch locks by using the remote
control function or pushing the request switch on
the vehicle without taking the key out from a
pocket or purse. The operating environment
and/or conditions may affect the Intelligent Key
