fan NISSAN NOTE 2006 Owners Manual

CHILD SAFETY
Infants or small children
NISSAN recommends that infants or small children
should be seated in a child restraint on the rear
seats if available. According to accident statistics,
children are safer when properly restrained in the
rear seat than in the front seat, see “Child restraints”
later in this section.You should choose a child
restraint system which fits your vehicle and al-
ways follow the manufacturer’s instructions for
installation and use.
Children
Children who are too large for child restraints should
be seated and restrained by the seat belts that are
provided.
The use of a booster seat (commercially available)
may help to avoid the shoulder belt coming across
the face or neck area of a child’s seating position.
The booster seat should raise the child so that the
shoulder belt is properly positioned across the top,middle portion of the shoulder and the lap belt is low
on the hips. The booster seat should fit the vehicle’s
seat. Once the child has grown so the shoulder belt
is no longer on or near the face and neck, use the
shoulder belt without the booster seat.
WARNING
Never let a child stand or kneel on any seat and
do not allow a child in the cargo areas while the
vehicle is moving.
PREGNANT WOMEN
NISSAN recommends that pregnant women use
seat belts. Contact your doctor for specific recom-
mendations. The seat belt should be worn snug,
always position the lap belt as low as possible
around the hips, place the shoulder belt over your
shoulder and across your chest. Never run the lap/
shoulder belt over your abdominal area.
INJURED PERSONS
NISSAN recommends that injured persons use seat
belts, depending on the injury. Check with your doc-
tor for specific recommendations.
THREE-POINT TYPE SEAT BELTS
Every person who drives or rides in this vehicle
should wear a seat belt at all times.
Fastening the seat belts
1. Adjust the seat.
WARNING
The seatback should not be reclined any more
than needed for comfort. Seat belts are most
effective when the passenger sits well back and
upright in the seat. If the seat is reclined, the risk
of sliding under the lap belt and being injured is
increased.
2. Slowly pull the seat belt out of the retractor and
insert the tongue into the buckle until it snaps.
CAUTION
The seat belt retractor is designed to lock during
a sudden impact. A slow pulling motion will per-
mit the belt to move, and allow you some free-
dom of movement in the seat.

make sure the front passenger air bag indicator
light
illuminates for a few seconds and then
turns off.
WARNING
If any of the following conditions occur after the
ignition switch has been turned to the ON posi-
tion, the front passenger air bag system needs
servicing and your vehicle must be taken to the
nearest NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
•The front passenger air bag indicator light
comes on and remains illuminated after ap-
proximately 7 seconds while the front pas-
senger air bag switch is ON.
•The front passenger air bag indicator light
does not come on at all while the front pas-
senger air bag switch is ON.
Unless checked and repaired, the front passenger
air bag system may not function properly.
PRECAUTIONS ON CHILD
RESTRAINT USAGE
Infants and small children shouldalwaysbe placed
in an infant or child restraint while riding in the ve-
hicle.
WARNING
•Infants and small children should never be
carried on your lap. It is not possible for even
the strongest adult to resist the forces of an
accident. The child could be crushed between
the adult and parts of the vehicle. Also, do not
put the same seat belt around both your child
and yourself. In general, child restraints are
designed to be installed with the lap portion
of a three-point type seat belt.
•NISSAN recommends to install the child re-
straint on the rear seat when available. Ac-
cording to accident statistics, children are
safer when properly restrained in the rear seat
than in the front seat.
•An improperly installed child restraint could
lead to serious injury in an accident.
Child restraints specially designed for infants and
small children are offered by several manufacturers.
When selecting any child restraint, keep the follow-
ing points in mind:
•Choose a child restraint that complies with the
latest European safety standard, ECE Regula-
tion 44.03.
•Place your child in the child restraint and check
the various adjustments to be sure that the child
restraint is suitable for your child. Always follow
all of the recommended procedures.
•Check the child restraint in your vehicle to be
sure it is compatible with the vehicle’s seat belt
system.
•Refer to the tables further in this section for a list
of the recommended fitment positions and the
approved child restraint for your vehicle.
WARNING
•Since your vehicle is equipped with a front
passenger air bag, never install a rear facing
child restraint in the front seat without first
deactivating the front passenger air bag.
•Adjustable seatbacks should be positioned to
fit the child seat; however, it should be as
upright as possible.
•Follow all the child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions for installation and use. An ap-
SSS0099Z
CHILD RESTRAINTS
1-16Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

propriate child restraint should be chosen and
purchased according to the child and the ve-
hicle as it may not be possible to properly
install some types of child restraints in your
vehicle.
•Improper use of a child restraint can increase
injuries for both the infant or child and other
occupants in the vehicle.
•When your child restraint is not in use, keep it
secured with a seat belt to prevent it from
being thrown forward in case of a sudden stop
or accident.
•Remember that a child restraint left in a closed
vehicle can become very hot. Check the seat-
ing surface and buckles before placing your
child in the child restraint.
•After attaching a child restraint, test the seat
before you place the child in it. Tilt it from side
to side. Try to tug it forward and check
whether the belt holds it in place. If the re-
straint is not secure, tighten the belt as nec-
essary, or put the restraint in another seat
and test it again.
•If the child restraint is not anchored properly,
the risk of a child being injured in a collision
or a sudden stop greatly increases.
•The front passenger seat and adjustable rear
bench seat should be positioned to fit the
child seat appropriately. See “Installation of a
child restraint system on the front passengerseat” later in this section and “Installation of a
child restraint system on rear seats” later in
this section.
•For a front facing child restraint, installed on a
three-point type lap/shoulder belt, make sure
the shoulder belt does not go in front of the
child’s face or neck. If it does, put the shoul-
der belt behind the child restraint.
•If the child restraint is equipped with a locking
clip, ensure that the clip is securely fastened
to the vehicle seat belt. If the locking clip is
not used, injuries could result from the child
restraint tipping over during normal vehicle
braking or cornering.
Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-17

in this position could cause serious injury to
the infant in case of air bag deployment dur-
ing a collision.
•In vehicles equipped with a side air bag sys-
tem, do not let any infants or small children sit
in the front passenger’s seat as the air bag
may cause serious injury in case of deploy-
ment during a collision.
NOTE
Universal child restraints approved to ECE Regu-
lation No. 44.03 are clearly marked “Universal”.
INSTALLATION OF A CHILD
RESTRAINT SYSTEM ON THE FRONT
PASSENGER SEAT
WARNING
•Never install a rear facing child restraint sys-
tem in the front seat without first deactivating
the front passenger air bag. Inflating supple-
mental front-impact air bags inflate with greatforce. A child restraint system could be struck
by the supplemental front-impact air bags in
an accident and could seriously injure or kill
your child.
•NISSAN recommends that infants or small
children be seated in a child restraint system
in the rear seat. According to accident statis-
tics, children are safer when properly
restrained in the rear seat than in the front
seat.
Rear facing
If you install a child restraint system in the front seat,
follow these steps:
1. Deactivate the front passenger air bag. See
“Supplemental Restraint System (air bag
system)” earlier in this section for further details.
2. Move the seat to the rearmost position.
3. Adjust the head restraint to its highest position.
Remove it if it interferes with the child restraint
installation. In such situation, securely store the
head restraint in the luggage compartment so
that it does not become a dangerous projectile
during a sudden stop or in an accident.
4. Position the child restraint system in the front
passenger’s seat.
Always follow the child restraint system manu-
facturer’s instructions for installation and use.5. Route the seat belt tongue through the child re-
straint system and insert it into the buckle until
you hear and feel the latch engage.
To prevent slack in the lap belt, it will be neces-
sary to secure the shoulder belt in place with a
locking clip
jA . Use a locking clip attached to
the child restraint system, or one which is equiva-
lent in dimensions and strength.
Be sure to follow the child restraint system
manufacturer’s instructions for belt routing.
6. Slide the seat forward so that the seat belt fully
tightens the child restraint system and the child
restraint reaches the vehicle dashboard.
7. Test the child restraint system before you place
the child in it. Tilt it from side to side. Try to tug it
forward and check if it is held securely in place.
