WARNING
IDo 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 re-
ceive neck or other serious injuries.
You could also slide under the lap
belt and receive serious internal
injuries.IFor most effective protection when
the vehicle is in motion, the seat
should be upright. Always sit well
back in the seat and adjust the seat
belt properly. See ªPrecautions on
seat belt usageº later in this section.

Center of rear seat (if so equipped)Selecting correct set of seat belts:
The center seat belt buckle is identified by the
CENTER mark. The center seat belt tongue
can be fastenedonlyinto the center seat belt

Shoulder belt height adjustment
(For front seats)The shoulder belt anchor height should be
adjusted to the position best suited for you.
(See ªPrecautions on seat belt usageº earlier
in this section.) To lower, push the release
button, and then move the shoulder belt an-
chor to the desired position, so that the belt
passes over the shoulder. Release the adjust-
ment button to lock the shoulder belt anchor
into position.
To raise, move the adjuster up to the desired
position without pushing the button.
WARNING
IAfter adjustment, release the adjust-
ment button and try to move the
shoulder belt down to make sure it is
securely fixed in position.
IThe shoulder belt anchor height
should be adjusted to the position
best for you. Failure to do so may
reduce the effectiveness of the entire
restraint system and increase the
chance or severity of injury in an
accident.SEAT BELT EXTENDERSIf, because of body size or driving position, it is
not possible to properly fit the lap-shoulder belt
and fasten it, an extender is available which is
compatible with the installed seat belts. The
extender adds approximately 8 inches (200
mm) of length and may be used for either the
driver or front passenger seating position. See
your NISSAN dealer for assistance if the ex-
tender is required.

WARNING
IAlways 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.
IBefore opening any door, always look
for and avoid oncoming traffic.
IDo not leave children unattended in-
side the vehicle. They could unknow-
ingly activate switches or controls.
Unattended children could become
involved in serious accidents.
LOCKING WITH KEY
PowerThe power door lock system allows you to lock
or unlock all doors simultaneously.
ITurning the driver's door key to the front of
the vehicle will lock all doors.
ITurning the driver's door key one time to
the rear of the vehicle will unlock the corre-
sponding door. From that position, return-
ing the key to neutral (where the key can
only be removed and inserted) and turning
it to the rear again within 5 seconds will
unlock all doors.
LOCKING WITH INSIDE LOCK
KNOBTo individually lock the doors from the outside
move the inside lock knob to the LOCK posi-
tion, then close the door. To unlock, pull up the
inside lock knob to the unlock position.
When locking the door without a key, be
sure not to leave the key inside the vehicle.
