WARNING
∙ Do not allow people to ride in any areaof your vehicle that is not equipped
with seats and seat belts. Be sure ev-
eryone in your vehicle is in a seat and
using a seat belt properly.
∙ Head restraints/headrests should be adjusted properly as they may pro-
vide significant protection against in-
jury in an accident. Always replace
them properly if they have been re-
moved for any reason.
∙ If the head restraints/headrests are removed for any reason, they should
be securely stored to prevent them
from causing injury to passengers or
damage to the vehicle in case of sud-
den braking or an accident.
∙ When returning the seatbacks to the upright position, be certain they are
completely secured in the latched po-
sition. If they are not completely se-
cured, passengers may be injured in
an accident or sudden stop. ∙ Properly secure all cargo to help pre-
vent it from sliding or shif ting. Do not
place cargo higher than the seat-
backs. In a sudden stop or collision,
unsecured cargo could cause per-
sonal injury.
∙ Do not drive the vehicle unless all of the seats are installed and locked in
position. Loose seats can become
projectiles in a sudden stop or colli-
sion and cause serious personal in-
jury or death.

Folding the front passenger’s
seatback
To fold the front passenger’s seatback flat
for extra storage length when transporting
long items:1. Slide the seat to the rearmost position. Lif t up on the recline lever, located on
the outside edge of the seat, and allow
the seatback to fold forward as far as it
will go. 2. Once the seatback is released, it will
enable you to fold the front passenger
seatback flat over the seat cushion.
3. To return the front passenger’s seat to a seating position, lif t up on the seat-
back and push it up to an upright posi-
tion. Then pull up on the recline lever
and lean the seatback to a proper seat-
ing position. Release the lever to lock
the seatback in position.
WARNING
∙ If you fold the front passenger’s seat-back flat forward to carry longer ob-
jects, be sure this cargo is properly se-
cured and not near an air bag. In a
crash, an inflating air bag might force
that object toward a person. This
could cause severe injury or even
death. Secure objects away from the
area in which an air bag would inflate.
For additional information, refer to
“Precautions on SRS” in this section.
∙ Never allow anyone to ride in the cargo area or on the front passenger’s
seat when it is in the fold-down posi-
tion. Use of these areas by passengers
could result in serious injury or death
in an accident or sudden stop.
CAUTION
Do not apply a load to the back of the
table if it is not fully horizontal. Doing so
may cause deformation/malfunction.
NOTE:
The belt buckle must be in the forward-
most position for the seat to be folded to
avoid premature aging.

instructions could increase the
chance or severity of an injury in a col-
lision or sudden stop.

SEAT RAIL COVERS
Your vehicle has eight factory installed
small rail covers. It also comes with a Large
Seat Rail Cover kit. The kit contains four
large rail covers that can be used to cover
the seat tracks when the single seats in the
2nd and/or 3rd rows have been removed. If
additional seats are removed and you wish
to cover the seat tracks, contact the Parts
Department at a NISSAN dealer for the lat-
est parts information.Both the small and large seat rail covers
can be removed and installed the same
way.
WARNING
Properly stow the rail covers when not
in use. They should be securely stored
to prevent them from causing injury to
passengers or damage to the vehicle in
case of sudden braking or an accident.
Installation of rail covers
When installing the rail covers into the rail
opening, make sure that the Owner’s
Manual symbol is placed in the correct di-
rection.

SEAT CONFIGURATIONS
The seating system allows great flexibility
by allowing the 2nd, 3rd and 4th row seats
to be rearranged in multiple configura-
tions. Proper usage is important to your
safety. There is a total of six independent
seats in the rear rows and all of them can
be removed and rearranged. The illustra-
tion above shows which seats are com-
mon and interchangeable.

3. Position the lap belt portionlow and
snug on the hips as shown.
4. Pull the shoulder belt portion toward the retractor to take up extra slack. Be
sure the shoulder belt is routed over
your shoulder and across your chest.
The front passenger seat and the rear
seating positions three-point seat belt
have two modes of operation: ∙ Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR)
∙ Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) The ELR mode allows the seat belt to ex-
tend and retract to allow the driver and
passengers some freedom of movement
in the seat. The ELR locks the seat belt
when the vehicle slows down rapidly or
during certain impacts.
The ALR mode (child restraint mode) locks
the seat belt for child restraint installation.
When the ALR mode is activated, the seat
belt cannot be extended again until the
seat belt tongue is detached from the
buckle and fully retracted. The seat belt re-
turns to the ELR mode af ter the seat belt
fully retracts. For additional information, re-
fer to “Child restraints” in this section.
The ALR mode should be used only for
child restraint installation. During nor-
mal seat belt use by a passenger, the ALR
mode should not be activated. If it is ac-
tivated it may cause uncomfortable seat
belt tension.
WARNING
When fastening the seat belts, be certain
that the seatbacks are completely se-
cured in the latched position. If they are
not completely secured, passengers may
be injured in an accident or sudden stop.
Unfastening the seat belts
To unfasten the seat belt, press the button
on the buckle

cally retracts.
