FRONT SEATS
Manual seat adjustment
WARNING
•Do not adjust the driver’s seat while driving.
The seat may move suddenly and could cause
loss of control of the vehicle.
•After adjustment, gently rock in the seat to
make sure it is securely locked.
•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 seatback is re-
clined, the risk of sliding under the lap belt
and being injured is increased.
Forward and backward:
Pull the bar
j1 up while you slide the seat forward
or backward to the desired position. Release the
bar to lock the seat in position.Seat lifter (driver’s seat – where fitted):
Pull up or push down the lever
j2 to adjust the
angle and the height of the seat cushion to the de-
sired position.
Reclining:
Turn the dial
j3 and lean back until the desired
angle is obtained. To return the seatback forward,
turn the dial and move your body forward.
REAR SEAT
WARNING
•When the vehicle is being used to carry cargo,
properly secure all cargo to help prevent it
from sliding or shifting. Do not place cargo
higher than the seatbacks. In a sudden stop
or collision, unsecured cargo could cause per-
sonal injury.
•Seats should always be set into a latched con-
dition when the vehicle is in motion. Make
sure the rear bench seat is adequately latched
every time it has been previously slid. If it is
not completely secured, passengers may be
injured in an accident or sudden stop.
•Never allow anyone to ride in the luggage area
or on the rear seat when it is in the fold-down
position. Use of these areas by passengers
without proper restraints could result in seri-
ous injury in an accident or sudden stop.
•When returning the seatbacks to the upright
position, be certain that they are completely

3. Position the lap belt portionlow on the hipsas
shown.
4. Pull the shoulder belt portion toward the retrac-
tor to take up extra slack. Make sure the shoul-
der belt is routed over your shoulder and snug
across your chest.
WARNING
•The seat belt should rest on the middle of the
shoulder. It must not rest against the neck.
•Make sure that the seat belt is not twisted in
any way.
Selecting the correct set of belts
The rear centre seat belt buckle is identified by the
markjA . The centre seat belt tongue can only be
fastened into the centre seat belt buckle.
Shoulder belt height adjustment (front
seats only – where fitted)
The shoulder belt anchor height should be adjusted
to the position best for you (see “Precautions on
seat belt usage” earlier in this section).To adjust, pull the release button
j1 and move the
shoulder belt anchorj2 to the appropriate position,
so that the belt passes over the centre of the shoul-
der. Release when the appropriate position has
been found in order to lock the shoulder belt anchor
into position. The belt should be away from your
face and neck, but not falling off your shoulder.
WARNING
•After adjustment, release the button or knob
and check by moving the shoulder belt as-
sembly up and down to make sure the shoul-
der belt anchor is securely fixed in position.
•The seat belt should be away from your face
and neck, but not falling off your shoulder.
Unfastening the seat belts
To unfasten the seat belt, press the button on the
buckle. The seat belt will automatically retract.
Checking the seat belt operation
Your seat belt retractors are designed to lock the
belt movement in two separate situations:
•When the belt is pulled quickly from the retrac-
tor.
•When the vehicle slows down rapidly.
To increase your confidence in the belts, check the
operation as follows:
Take place in the seat for which you wish to check

the belt operation. Grasp the shoulder belt and pull
quickly forward. The retractor should lock and re-
strict further belt movement.
If the retractor does not lock during these checks or
if you have any questions about the seat belt opera-
tion see a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
SEAT BELT MAINTENANCE
•To clean the seat belt webbings,apply a mild
soap solution or any solution recommended for
cleaning upholstery or carpets. Then brush it,
wipe with a cloth and allow it to dry in the shade.
Do not allow the seat belts to retract until they
are completely dry.
•If dirt builds up in the shoulder belt guide of the
seat belt anchors, the seat belts may retract
slowly. Wipe the shoulder belt guide with a clean,
dry cloth.
•Periodically check to see whether the seat
belt and the metal componentssuch as buck-
les, tongues, retractors, flexible wires and an-
chors work properly. If loose parts, deteriora-
tion, cuts or other damage to the webbing is
found, the entire belt assembly should be re-
placed.
WARNING
•The pre-tensioner seat belt cannot be reused
after activation. It must be replaced together
with the retractor as a unit.
•If the vehicle is involved in a frontal collision
but the pre-tensioner is not activated, be sure
to have the pre-tensioner system checked
and, if necessary, replaced by a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop.
•No unauthorised changes should be made to
any components or wiring of the pre-tensioner
seat belt system. This is to prevent accidental
activation of the pre-tensioner seat belt or
damage to the pre-tensioner seat belt opera-
tion. Tampering with the pre-tensioner seat
belt system may result in serious personal in-
jury.
•Work on and around the pre-tensioner system
should be done by an authorised NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop. Installation of
electrical equipment should also be done by a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop. Unau-
thorised electrical test equipment and prob-
ing devices should not be used on the pre-
tensioner seat belt system.
•If you need to dispose of the pre-tensioner or
scrap the vehicle, contact a NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop. Correct pre-tensioner
disposal procedures are set forth in the ap-propriate NISSAN Service Manual. Incorrect
disposal procedures could cause personal in-
jury.
The front seat pre-tensioner seat belt system is acti-
vated in conjunction with the front air bag system. It
helps tighten the seat belt when the vehicle is in-
volved in certain types of collisions by restraining
the seat occupants via the seat belt retractor.
The pre-tensioner is encased with the seat belt’s
retractor. These seat belts are used in the same way
as conventional seat belts.
Additionally, the driver’s side pre-tensioner seat belt
system is also equipped with a lap pre-tensioner.
Both the retractor pre-tensioner and lap pre-ten-
sioner provide significant protection against injury in
an accident and increase the safety performance of
your vehicle.
When the pre-tensioner seat belt system activates,
smoke is released and a loud noise may be heard.
The smoke is harmless, but care should be taken
not to inhale it as it may cause irritation and choking.
When the ignition switch is in the ON or START
position, the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
air bag warning light will illuminate. The SRS air bag
warning light will turn off after approximately 7 sec-
onds if the system is operational. If any of the follow-
ing conditions occur, the air bag and/or pre-ten-
sioner seat belt need servicing and your vehicle must
be taken to the nearest NISSAN dealer or qualified
workshop.

monitored by the SRS air bag warning light are: all
sensors, air bag modules and all related wiring, and
the pre-tensioner seat belt.
After turning the ignition switch to the ON or
START position, the supplemental air bag warn-
ing light illuminates. The air bag warning light will
turn off after approximately 7 seconds if the sys-
tem is operational.
If any of the following conditions occurs, the front air
bag, side and curtain air bag systems (where fitted)
and pre-tensioner seat belt need servicing and
should be taken to the nearest NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop:
•The SRS air bag warning light remains on after
approximately 7 seconds.
•The SRS air bag warning light flashes intermit-
tently.
•The SRS air bag warning light does not come on
at all.
Under these conditions, the front air bags, side and
curtain air bags (where fitted) and/or pre-tensioner
seat belt will not operate properly. They must be
checked and repaired.
Repair and replacement procedure
The front air bags, side air bags (where fitted), cur-
tain air bags (where fitted) and pre-tensioner seat
belt are designed to activate on a one-time-only ba-
sis. As a reminder, unless it is damaged, the air bag
warning light will remain illuminated after inflationhas occurred. Repair and replacement of the air bag
system should be done only by a NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop.
When maintenance work is required on the vehicle,
the air bag systems, related parts and pre-tensioner
seat belt should be pointed out to the person con-
ducting the maintenance. The ignition switch should
always be in the LOCK position when working un-
der the bonnet or inside the vehicle.
WARNING
•Once the air bag has inflated or the pre-ten-
sioner seat belt has been activated, the air
bag module and pre-tensioner seat belt will
not function again and must be replaced. The
air bag module should be replaced by a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop. The air
bag module cannot be repaired.
•All air bag systems should be inspected by a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop if there
is any damage to the front end portion of the
vehicle.
•When selling your vehicle, we request that you
inform the buyer about the air bag system and
guide the buyer to the appropriate sections in
this Owner’s Manual.
•If you need to dispose of an air bag or scrap
the vehicle, contact a NISSAN dealer or quali-
fied workshop. Correct air bag disposal pro-
cedures are set forth in the appropriate
NISSAN Service Manual. Incorrect disposal
procedures could cause personal injury.Note that the above illustration is for LHD models.
