dimensions NISSAN MAXIMA 1998 A32 / 4.G Owners Manual

After the child restraint is removed and the
seat belt is allowed to wind back into the
retractor, the automatic locking mode (child
restraint mode) is canceled; the seat belt only
locks during a sudden stop or impact.
TOP STRAP CHILD RESTRAINTIf your child restraint has a top strap, it must be
secured to the provided anchor point. Anchor
bracket hardware must be installed. The top
strap anchor bracket is available through your
NISSAN dealer.
Part No. 88894-89900
Secure the child restraint with the center lap
belt or the lap portion of an outboard three-
point belt and latch the top strap hook onto the
appropriate anchor bracket. To install the an-
chor bracket, a metric bolt of the dimensions
listed below must be used.Bolt diameter: 8.0 mm
Bolt length: more than 1.18 in (30 mm)
Thread pitch: 1.25 mm
Secure the top strap to the attaching bolt which
provides the straightest installation of the top
strap.
Child restraint anchor points are de-
signed to withstand only those loads
imposed by correctly fitted child re-
straints. Under no circumstances are
they to be used for adult seat belts or
harnesses.
