or neck. If it does, put the shoulder
belt behind the child restraint. If you
must install a front facing child re-
straint in the front seat, see instruc-
tions later in this section.

When your child restraint is not in
use, store it in the trunk or keep it
secured with a seat belt to prevent it
from being thrown around in case of
a sudden stop or accident.
CAUTION
Remember that a child restraint left in a
closed vehicle can become very hot.
Check the seating surface and buckles
before placing your child in the child
restraint.
INSTALLATION ON REAR SEAT
CENTER OR OUTBOARD
POSITIONS
WARNING

The three-point rear seat belts on
your vehicle are equipped with a
locking mode retractor which must
be used when installing a child re-
straint.

Failure to do so will result in the child
restraint not being properly secured.
It could tip over or otherwise be un-
secured and cause injury to the child
in a sudden stop or collision.

When installing a child restraint sys-
tem in the rear center position, both
the center seat belt connector tongue
and buckle tongue must be secured.
See “Attaching rear center seat belt”
earlier in this section.
Front facingWhen you install a child restraint in a rear
outboard or center seat, follow these steps:
1. Position the child restraint on the seat. It can
be placed in a front facing direction, depend-
ing on the size of the child. Adjust the head
restraint to its highest position or remove it if
the child restraint uses a top tether strap.
Always follow the restraint manufacturer’s
instructions.

2. Route the seat belt tongue through the child
restraint and insert it into the buckle until you
hear and feel the latch engage.
Be sure to follow the child restraint manufac-
turer’s instructions for belt routing.3. Pull on the shoulder belt until all of the belt is
fully extended. At this time, the belt retractor
is in the automatic locking mode (child re-
straint mode). It reverts back to emergency
locking mode when the belt is fully retracted.

4. Allow the belt to retract. Pull up on the belt to
remove any slack in the belt.5. Before placing the child in the child restraint,
use force to tilt the child restraint from side to
side, and tug it forward to make sure that it is
securely held in place. It should not move
more than 1 inch (25 mm).
6. Check that the retractor is in the automatic
locking mode by trying to pull more belt out of
the retractor. If you cannot pull any more belt
webbing out of the retractor, the belt is in the
automatic locking mode.
7. Check to make sure that the child restraint is
properly secured prior to each use. If the belt
is not locked, repeat steps 3 through 6.
After the child restraint is removed and the seatbelt 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.

LATCH (LOWER ANCHORS AND
TETHERS FOR CHILDREN)
SYSTEM
WARNING

Attach LATCH system compatible
child restraints only at the locations
shown. If a child restraint is not se-
cured properly, your child could be
seriously injured or killed in an
accident.
Do not secure a child restraint in the
center rear seating position using the
child restraint lower anchors. The
child restraint will not be secured
properly.

The LATCH system anchors are de-
signed to withstand only those loads
imposed by correctly fitted child re-
straints. Under no circumstance are
they to be used for adult seat belts or
harnesses.
Some child restraints include two rigid or
webbing-mounted attachments that can be con-
nected to two anchors located at certain seating
positions in your vehicle. This system is known
as the LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for
CHildren) system. This system may also be
referred to as the ISOFIX or ISOFIX compatible
system. With this system, you do not have to use
a vehicle seat belt to secure the child restraint.
Your vehicle is equipped with special anchor
points that are used with LATCH system com-
patible child restraints. Check your child restraint
for a label stating that it is compatible with the
LATCH system. This information may also be in
the child restraint owner’s manual. If you have
such a child restraint, refer to the illustration for
SSS0233Seats, restraints and supplemental air bag systems

INSTALLATION ON FRONT
PASSENGER SEAT
WARNING

Never install a rear facing child re-
straint in the front passenger seat.
Supplemental air bags inflate with
great force. A rear facing child re-
straint could be struck by the supple-
mental air bag in a crash and could
seriously injure or kill your child.
NISSAN recommends that child re-
straints be installed in the rear seat.
However, if you must install a front
facing child restraint in the front pas-
senger seat, move the passenger
seat to the rearmost position.

A child restraint with a top tether
strap should not be used in the front
passenger seat.

The three-point belt in your vehicle is
equipped with a locking mode retrac-
tor which must be used when install-ing a child restraint.

Failure to use the retractor’s locking
mode will result in the child restraint
not being properly secured. The child
restraint could tip over or otherwise
be unsecured and cause injury to the
child in a sudden stop or collision.
