3. The booster seat should be positionedon the vehicle seat so that it is stable.
If necessary, adjust or remove the head
restraint/headrest to obtain the correct
booster seat fit. If the head restraint/
headrest is removed, store it in a secure
place. Be sure to reinstall the head
restraint/headrest when the booster
seat is removed. For additional infor-
mation, see “Head restraints/headrests”
(P. 1-9).

Front passenger air bag
The front passenger air bag is designed to
automatically turn OFF when the vehicle is
operated under some conditions as de-
scribed below in accordance with U.S. regu-
lations. If the front passenger air bag is OFF,
it will not inflate in a crash. The driver air bag
and other air bags in your vehicle are not
part of this system.
The purpose of the regulation is to help
reduce the risk of injury or death from an
inflating air bag to certain front passenger
seat occupants, such as children, by requir-
ing the air bag to be automatically turned
OFF. Certain sensors are used to meet the
requirements.
The occupant classification sensor in this
vehicle is a weight sensor. It is designed to
detect an occupant and objects on the
seat by weight. For example, if a child is in
the front passenger seat, the NISSAN Ad-
vanced Air Bag System is designed to turn
the front passenger air bag OFF in accor-
dance with the regulations. Also, if a child
restraint of the type specified in the regula-
tions is on the seat, its weight and the
child’s weight can be detected and cause
the air bag to turn OFF.Front passenger seat adult occupants who
are properly seated and using the seat belt
as outlined in this manual should not
cause the front passenger air bag and
front passenger supplemental knee air
bag to be automatically turned OFF. For
small adults it may be turned OFF, however
if the occupant takes his/her weight off the
seat cushion (for example, by not sitting
upright, by sitting on an edge of the seat, or
by otherwise being out of position), this
could cause the sensor to turn the front
passenger air bag and front passenger
supplemental knee air bag OFF. Always be
sure to be seated and wearing the seat belt
properly for the most effective protection
by the seat belt and supplemental air bag.
NISSAN recommends that pre-teens and
children be properly restrained in a rear
seat. NISSAN also recommends that ap-
propriate child restraints and booster
seats be properly installed in a rear seat. If
this is not possible, the occupant classifica-
tion sensor is designed to operate as de-
scribed above to turn the front passenger
air bag and front passenger supplemental
knee air bag OFF for specified child re-
straints as required by the regulations.
Failing to properly secure child restraints
and to use the ALR mode may allow the
restraint to tip or move in a collision orsudden stop. This can also result in the
passenger air bag and front passenger
supplemental knee air bag inflating in a
crash instead of being OFF. For additional
information about proper use and installa-
tion, see “Child restraints” (P. 1-26).
If the front passenger seat is not occupied,
the front passenger air bag and front pas-
senger supplemental knee air bag are de-
signed not to inflate in a crash. However,
heavy objects placed on the seat could re-
sult in air bag inflation, because of the ob-
ject’s weight detected by the occupant
classification sensor. Other conditions
could also result in air bag inflation, such as
if a child is standing on the seat, or if two
children are on the seat, contrary to the
instructions in this manual. Always be sure
that you and all vehicle occupants are
seated and restrained properly.
Using the front passenger air bag status
light, you can monitor when the front pas-
senger air bag and front passenger
supplemental knee air bag are automati-
cally turned OFF.
If an adult occupant is in the seat but the
front passenger air bag status light is illu-
minated (indicating that the front passen-
ger air bag and front passenger supple-
mental knee air bag are OFF), it could be

SECURITY SYSTEMS
2-32Instruments and controls

The system helps deter vehicle thef t but
cannot prevent it, nor can it prevent the
thef t of interior or exterior vehicle compo-
nents in all situations. Always secure your
vehicle even if parking for a brief period.
Never leave your Intelligent Key in the ve-
hicle, and always lock the vehicle when un-
attended. Be aware of your surroundings,
and park in secure, well-lit areas whenever
possible.
Many devices offering additional protec-
tion, such as component locks, identifica-
tion markers, and tracking systems, are
available at auto supply stores and spe-
cialty shops. A NISSAN dealer may also offer
such equipment. Check with your insur-
ance company to see if you may be eligible
for discounts for various thef t protection
features.
How to arm the vehicle security
system
1.Close all windows and the moonroof (if so
equipped). The system can be armed
even if the windows and moonroof are
open.
2. Remove the Intelligent Key from the vehicle. 3. Close all doors, hood and lif tgate. Lock
all doors. The doors can be locked with
the Intelligent Key, door handle request
switch or power door lock switch.
Key fob operation:
4. Confirm that the
indicator light
comes on. Theindicator stays
illuminated for a period of time indicat-
ing that the system is in the pre-armed
phase.
The
indicator light will blink every
3 seconds once the security system is
armed.
If during the pre-armed phase one of
the following occurs, the system will not
arm:
• A door is opened with the release button with the Intelligent Key on your person.
• The doors are unlocked using the unlock button on the Intelligent Key.
• The ignition switch is placed in the ACC or ON position. •
Even when the driver and/or passen-
gers are in the vehicle, the system will
activate when all the doors, hood and
lif tgate are locked with the ignition
switch placed in the LOCK position.
When placing the ignition switch in the
ACC or ON position, the system will be
released.
Vehicle security system activation
The vehicle security system will give the
following alarm:
• The turn signals blink and the horn sounds intermittently.
• The alarm automatically turns off af ter a period of time. However, the alarm reacti-
vates if the vehicle is tampered with
again. The alarm can be shut off by un-
locking the driver's door or lif tgate by
pressing the
button on the Intelli-
gent Key.
The alarm is activated by:
• Opening the door or lif tgate without us- ing the Intelligent Key (even if the door is
unlocked by releasing the door inside
lock switch).
Instruments and controls2-33

How to stop an activated alarm
The alarm stops only by unlocking the driv-
er’s door or the lif tgate by pressing the
button on the Intelligent Key or push-
ing the request switch on the driver's or
passenger's door with the Intelligent Key in
range of the door handle.

LUGGAGE HOOKS
When securing items using luggage hooks
located on the back of the seat or side
finisher do not apply a load over more than
6.5 lbs. (29 N) to a single hook.
The luggage hooks that are located on the
floor should have loads less than 110 lbs.
(490 N) to a single hook.
The luggage hooks can be used to secure
cargo with ropes or other types of straps.
WARNING
• Properly secure all cargo with ropes
or straps to help prevent it from slid-
ing or shif ting. Do not place cargo
higher than the seatbacks. In a sud-
den stop or collision, unsecured
cargo could cause personal injury.
• Use suitable ropes and hooks to se-
cure cargo.
• Never allow anyone to ride in the lug-
gage area. It is extremely dangerous
to ride in a cargo area inside of a ve-
hicle. In a collision, people riding in
these areas are more likely to be se-
riously injured or killed.
• Do not allow people to ride in any
area of your vehicle that is not
equipped with seats and seat belts.
• The child restraint top tether strap
may be damaged by contact with
items in the cargo area. Secure any
items in the cargo area. Your child
could be seriously injured or killed in
a collision if the top tether strap is
damaged.
• Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in
a seat and using a seat belt properly.
COAT HOOKS
The coat hooks, located on the rear assist
grips, may be used to store coats and other
articles of clothing.
CAUTION
Do not apply more than 33 lbs. (15 kg) to
the rear assist grip coat hook.
