prevent it from sliding or shifting.
Do not place cargo higher than the
seatbacks. In a sudden stop or
collision, unsecured cargo could
cause personal injury.
.When returning the seatbacks, be
sure to attach the rear center seat
belt connector.
.Do not unfasten the rear center seat
belt connector except when folding
down the rear seat.
.When attaching the rear center seat
belt connector, be certain that the
seatbacks are completely secured in
the latched position and the rear
center seat belt connector is com-
pletely secured.
.If the rear center seat belt connector
and the seatbacks are not secured
in the correct position, serious per-
sonal injury may result in an acci-
dent or sudden stop.
HEAD RESTRAINTS
WARNING
Head restraints should be adjusted
properly as they may provide significant
protection against injury in an accident.
Do not remove them. Check the adjust-
ment after someone else uses the seat.

WARNING
.Child restraint anchor points are
designed to withstand only those
loads imposed by correctly fitted
child restraints. Under no circum-
stances are they to be used for adult
seat belts or harnesses.
.Your child could be seriously injured
or killed in a collision if the child
restraint top tether strap is da-
maged.
— If the cargo cover contacts the
top tether strap when it is at-
tached to the top tether anchor,
remove the cargo cover from the
vehicle or secure it on the cargo
floor below its attachment loca-
tion. If the cargo cover is not
removed, it may damage the top
tether strap during a collision.
— Do not allow cargo to contact
the top tether strap when it is
attached to the top tether an-
chor. Properly secure the cargo
so it does not contact the top
tether strap. Cargo that is not
properly secured or that con-tacts the top tether strap may
damage the top tether strap
during a collision.
SSS0802
Top tether anchor point locationsAnchor points are located on the floor behind
the outboard and center seating positions.Installing top tether strapFirst secure the child restraint with the LATCH
system (rear outboard seating positions only) or
the seat belt as applicable.
1. Remove the anchor cover from the anchor
point which is located directly behind the
child seat.
2. Position the top tether strap over the top of
the seatback.
3. Secure the tether strap to the tether anchor

lation.

manufacturer’s instructions to remove any

tails.
CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION
USING LATCH
WARNING
.Attach LATCH compatible child re-
straints only at the locations shown.
For the LATCH lower anchor loca-
tions, see “Lower Anchors and
Tethers for CHildren SYSTEM
(LATCH)” earlier in this section. If a
child restraint is not secured prop-
erly, your child could be seriously
injured or killed in an accident.
.The LATCH anchors are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed
by correctly fitted child restraints.
Under no circumstance are they to
be used for adult seat belts orharnesses.
.Inspect the lower anchors by insert-
ing your fingers into the lower
anchor area and feeling to make
sure there are no obstructions over
the LATCH anchors, such as seat
belt webbing or seat cushion mate-
rial. The child restraint will not be
secured properly if the LATCH an-
chors are obstructed.
Front-facingFollow these steps to install a front-facing child
restraint using LATCH:
1. Position the child restraint on the seat.
Always follow the child restraint manufac-
turer’s instructions.
SSS0645
Front facing (webbing-mounted) — step 2
2. Secure the child restraint anchor attach-
ments to the LATCH lower anchors. Check
to make sure the LATCH attachment is
properly attached to the lower anchors.
3. The back of the child restraint should be
secured against the vehicle seatback. If the
seating position does not have an adjustable
head restraint and it is interfering with the
proper child restraint fit, try another seating
position or a different child restraint.

Front facing (front passenger seat) — step 1
Front-facingFollow these steps to install a front-facing child
restraint using the vehicle seat belt in the rear
seat or in the front passenger seat:
1.If you must install a child restraint in
the front seat, it should be placed in a
front-facing direction only. Move the
seat to the rearmost position. Child
restraints for infants must be used in
the rear-facing direction and therefore
must not be used in the front seat.
2. Position the child restraint on the seat.
Always follow the child restraint manufac-
turer’s instructions.The back of the child restraint should be
secured against the seatback. If necessary,
adjust or remove the head restraint (front
passenger seat only) to obtain the correct
child restraint fit. (See “HEAD RE-
STRAINTS” earlier in this section.)
If the head restraint is removed, store it in a
secure place. Be sure to install the head
restraint when the child restraint is removed.
If the seating position does not have an
adjustable head restraint and it is interfering
with the proper child restraint fit, try another
seating position or a different child restraint.

Front facing — step 3
3. Route the seat belt tongue through the child
restraint and insert it into the buckle until you
hear and feel the latch engage. Be sure to
follow the child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions for belt routing.

tether strap, route the top tether strap and
secure the tether strap to the tether anchor
point (rear seat installation only) . (See “TOP
TETHER STRAP CHILD RESTRAINT” ear-
lier in this section.) Do not install child
restraints that require the use of a top tether
strap to seating positions that do not have a

straints fit in all types of vehicles.9. Check that the retractor is in the ALR mode
by trying to pull more seat belt out of the
retractor. If you cannot pull any more belt
webbing out of the retractor, the retractor is
in the ALR mode.

PRECAUTIONS ON BOOSTER SEATS
WARNING
.Infants and small children should
always be placed in an appropriate
child restraint while riding in the
vehicle. Failure to use a child re-
straint or booster seat can result in
serious injury or death.
.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 a severe
accident. The child could be crushedbetween the adult and parts of the
vehicle. Also, do not put the same
seat belt around both your child and
yourself.
.NISSAN recommends that the boos-
ter seat be installed in the rear seat.
According to accident statistics,
children are safer when properly
restrained in the rear seat than in
the front seat. If you must install a
booster seat in the front seat, see
“BOOSTER SEAT INSTALLATION”
later in this section.
.A booster seat must only be in-
stalled in a seating position that has
a lap/shoulder belt. Failure to use a
three-point type seat belt with a
booster seat can result in a serious
injury in sudden stop or collision.
.Improper use or improper installa-
tion of a booster seat can increase
the risk or severity of injury for both
the child and other occupants of the
vehicle and can lead to serious
injury or death in an accident.
.Do not use towels, books, pillows or
other items in place of a booster
seat. Items such as these may moveBOOSTER SEATS
