Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Belts should not be worn with straps twisted.
Each belt assembly must only be used by one
occupant; it is dangerous to put a belt around
a child being carried on the occupant’s lap.
Every occupant in this vehicle should wear a
seat belt at all times.
Never carry more people in the vehicle than
there are seat belts.
All seat belt assemblies, including retractors
and attaching hardware, should be inspected
by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop af-
ter any collision. NISSAN recommends that
all seat belt assemblies in use during a colli-
sion should be replaced unless the collision
was minor and the belts show no damage and
continue to operate properly. Seat belt assem-
blies not in use during a collision should also
be inspected and replaced if either damage
or improper operation is noted.
Once the pre-tensioner seat belt has been ac-
tivated, it cannot be re-used. It must be re-
placed together with the retractor. See a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
Removal and installation of the pre-tensioner
seat belt system components should be done
by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop
ONLY.
If the seat belt warning light glows continu-
ously while the ignition switch is in the ON
position, all doors are closed and occupied
seat belts are fastened, it may indicate a mal-function in the system. Have the system
checked by a NISSAN dealer or qualified
workshop.
Always route the shoulder belt over your
shoulder and across your chest. Never run
the belt under your arm. Serious injury can
occur if the seat belt is not worn properly.
Position the lap belt as low as possible
AROUND THE HIPS, NOT THE WAIST.
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 re-
straint system which fits your vehicle and always fol-
low 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.

Warning labels about the air bag system are placed
in the vehicle. Warning labels are for your safety and
the safety of your passengers; do not remove them.
Child restraint on front passenger seat
NISSAN recommends that infants or small children
be seated in a child restraint system on the rear seat
if available. According to accident statistics, chil-
dren are safer when properly restrained in the rear
seat rather than in the front seat.
Front passenger air bag:
Your vehicle is equipped with a front passenger air
bag, you will find an air bag warning label attached
to the passenger side of the instrument panel as
shown in the previous illustration.
This label warns:
“Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearward facing
child restraint on a seat protected by an air bag
in front of it!”
This label warns NOT to fit a rearward facing child
restraint on the front passenger seat without first
deactivating the front passenger air bag.
For instructions on deactivating the front passenger
air bag see “Front passenger air bag deactivation
system” later in this section.
When installing child restraints in your vehicle, al-
ways carefully observe the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions.For more details on the installation of child restraints,
see also “Child restraints” later in this section.
Side air bags:
Your vehicle is equipped with side air bags. You will
find a side air bag warning label attached to the
vehicle’s interior as shown in the previous illustra-
tion.
This label warns you not to let infants or small chil-
dren sit on the front passenger seat as the air bag
may cause serious injury in case of deployment dur-
ing a collision.
AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT
The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) air bag
warning light, displayingin the instrument
panel, monitors the circuits of the front air bag sys-
tem, the side and curtain air bag systems and the
pre-tensioner seat belt system. The circuits moni-
tored by the SRS air bag warning light are: all sen-
sors, 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.
Take your vehicle to the nearest NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop to have the air bag systems and
pre-tensioner seat belt serviced if the SRS air bag
warning light:
Remains on after approximately 7 seconds
Flashes intermittently
Does not come on at all
Under these conditions, the front air bags, side and
curtain air bags 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, curtain air bags,
and pre-tensioner seat belt system are designed to
activate on a one-time-only basis. As a reminder,
unless it is damaged, the air bag warning light will
remain illuminated after inflation has occurred. Re-
pair and replacement of the air bag system should
be done only by a NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop.
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-

air bag system may not function properly.
PRECAUTIONS ON CHILD
RESTRAINT USAGE
Infants and small children should alwaysbe 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 a child and
yourself. In general, child restraints are de-
signed to be installed with the lap portion of a
three-point type seat belt.
NISSAN recommends installing the child re-
straint on the rear seat. According to accident
statistics, children are safer when properly re-
strained in the rear seat than in the front seat.

CHILD RESTRAINTS
1-18Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
Page 38 of 297

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.
