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.
When returning the seatbacks to the upright
position, be certain that they are completely
secured in the latched position. If they are not
completely secured, passengers may be in-
jured in an accident or sudden stop. When
operating the seatback release always rock
the seatback afterward to check that it is
locked.
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.
Never allow anyone to ride in the luggage area
or on the rear seat when it is in the folded-
down position. Use of these areas by passen-
gers without proper restraints could result in
serious injury in an accident or sudden stop.
Closely supervise children when they are
around the vehicle to prevent them from play-
ing and being locked in the luggage compart-
ment where they could be seriously injured.
Keep the vehicle locked with the rear seat-
back securely latched when not in use, and
prevent children from having access to the
vehicle’s keys.FRONT SEATS

HEAD RESTRAINTS
WARNING
Do not drive and/or ride in the vehicle with
the head restraint removed. This can be dan-
gerous.
Head restraints should be adjusted properly
as they may provide significant protection
against injury in an accident. Check the height
after someone else uses the seat.
If the head restraints are removed for any rea-
son, they should be securely stored to pre-
vent them from causing injury to passengers
or damage to the vehicle in case of sudden
braking or an accident.
7–seater: The head restraints of the 3rd row
should always be put into the highest position
when the seat is occupied.
Adjustment
1. Pull up the head restraint to raise to the proper position.
2. Push in the lock knob as illustrated to lower the head restraint to the proper position.
Adjust the head restraint so that the centre is level
with your ears.

b. Press the black button to release the end tongue. When the seat belt has retracted fully, place the
end tongue onto stowage hook
j1 . Move the
tongue holder downwards if required.
Shoulder belt height adjustment (front
seats only)
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, depress the adjustment button as illus-
trated and move the shoulder belt anchor to the
appropriate position, so that the belt passes over the centre of the shoulder. Release the adjustment
button to lock the shoulder belt anchor into position.
WARNING
After adjustment, release the adjustment but-
ton and check by moving the shoulder belt
assembly up and down to make sure the
shoulder belt anchor is securely fixed in posi-
tion.
The seat belt should be away from your face
and neck, but not falling off your shoulder.
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 webbing, 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 components such 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.

Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-11

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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 44.04.
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 on in this section for a
list of the recommended fitment positions and
the approved child restraint for your vehicle.
WARNING
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, the seatback
should be as upright as possible.
Follow all of the child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions for installation and use.
Choose a child restraint appropriate to the
child and the vehicle. It may not be possible
to properly install some types of child restraint
in your vehicle.
Improper use of a child restraint can increase
injuries to the infant or child and other occu-
pants in the vehicle.
When your child restraint is not in use, keep it
secured with a seat belt to prevent it from
being thrown forwards 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. Check that it
does not tilt too far from side to side. Try to
tug it forwards and check whether the belt
holds it in place. If the restraint is not secure,
tighten the belt as necessary, or put the re-
straint 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 sudden stop greatly increases.
The front passenger seat should be
positioned to fit the child seat appropriately.
See “Installation of a child restraint system on
the front passenger seat” 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.
