8. After attaching the child restraint, testit before you place the child in it. Push
it from side to side while holding the
child restraint near the seat belt path.
The child restraint should not move
more than 1 inch (25 mm), from side to
side. Try to tug it forward and check to
see if the belt holds the restraint in
place. If the restraint is not secure,
tighten the seat belt as necessary, or
put the restraint in another seat and
test it again. You may need to try a
different child restraint. Not all child
restraints fit in all types of vehicles.
9. Check to make sure the child restraint is properly secured prior to each use. If the seat belt is not locked, repeat
steps 2 through 8.

10. If the child restraint is installed in the
front passenger seat, place the igni-
tion switch in the ON position. The
front passenger air bag status light
should illuminate. If this light is not
illuminated, see “Front passenger air
bag and status light” (P.1-54). Move
the child restraint to another seating
position. Have the system checked. It
is recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
After the child restraint is removed and
the seat belt is fully retracted, the ALR
mode (child restraint mode) is canceled.

Installing top tether strap
WARNING
.Child restraint anchorages are
designed to withstand only those
loads imposed by correctly fitted
child restraints. Under no circum-
stances are they to be used to
attach adult seat belts, or other
items or equipment to the vehi-
cle. Doing so could damage the
child restraint anchorages. The
child restraint will not be properly
installed using the damaged an-
chorage, and a child could be seriously injured or killed in a
collision.
. Do not hook the top tether strap
on the seatback carpet. Be sure to
use the tether anchor point to
secure the top tether strap.
The child restraint top tether strap must
be used when installing forward-facing
child restraint with the seat belts.
First, secure the child restraint with the
seat belt.
1. Remove the head restraint/headrest and store it in a secure place. Be sure
to reinstall the head restraint/head-
rest when the child restraint is re-
moved.

BOOSTER SEATS
For additional information on installing a
booster seat in your vehicle, follow the
instructions outlined in this section.
Precautions on booster seats
WARNING
If a booster seat and seat belt are not
used properly, the risk of a child
being injured or killed in a sudden
stop or collision greatly increases:
.
Make sure the shoulder portion of
the belt is away from the child’s
face and neck and the lap portion
of the belt does not cross the
stomach.
. Make sure the shoulder belt is not
behind the child or under the
child’s arm.
. A booster seat must only be
installed in a seating position that
has a lap/shoulder belt.

Booster seats of various sizes are offered
by several manufacturers. When selecting
any booster seat, keep the following
points in mind:
.Choose only a booster seat with a
label certifying that it complies with
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard
213 or Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety
Standard 213.
. Check the booster seat in your vehicle
to be sure it is compatible with the
vehicle’s seat and seat belt system.
LRS0453
LRS0455
.Make sure the child’s head will be
properly supported by the booster
seat or vehicle seat. The seatback
must be at or above the center of
the child’s ears. For example, if a low
back booster seat
is chosen, the
vehicle seatback must be at or above
the center of the child’s ears. If the
seatback is lower than the center of
the child’s ears, a high back booster
seat
should be used.
. If the booster seat is compatible with
your vehicle, place your child in the
booster seat and check the various
adjustments to be sure the booster
seat is compatible with your child.
Always follow all recommended pro-
cedures.

rearmost position.
2. Position the booster seat on the seat. Only place it in a forward-facing
direction. Always follow the booster
seat manufacturer’s instructions.

LRS0454Front passenger position
3. The booster seat should be positionedon the vehicle seat so that it is stable.
If necessary, adjust or remove the
head restraint/headrest to obtain the
correct booster seat fit. If the head
restraint/headrest is removed, store it
in a secure place. Be sure to reinstall
the head restraint/headrest when
the booster seat is removed. See
“Head restraints/headrests” (P.1-9) for
head restraint/headrest adjustment,
removal and installation information.
If the head restraint/headrest of the
seating position is interfering with the
proper booster seat fit, try another
seating position or a different booster seat.
4. Position the lap portion of the seat belt low and snug on the child’s hips.
Be sure to follow the booster seat
manufacturer’s instructions for ad-
justing the seat belt routing.
5. Pull the shoulder belt portion of the seat belt toward the retractor to take
up extra slack. Be sure the shoulder
belt is positioned across the top,
middle portion of the child’s shoulder.
Be sure to follow the booster seat
manufacturer’s instructions for ad-
justing the seat belt routing.
6. Follow the warnings, cautions and instructions for properly fastening a

PRECAUTIONS ON SRS
This SRS section contains important in-
formation concerning the following sys-
tems:
.Driver and front passenger supple-
mental front-impact air bag (NISSAN
Advanced Air Bag System)
. Driver and front passenger supple-
mental knee air bag
. Front seat-mounted side-impact sup-
plemental air bag
. Rear outboard seat-mounted side-
impact supplemental air bag
. Front central seat-mounted side-im-
pact supplemental air bag (if so
equipped)
. Roof-mounted curtain side-impact
and rollover supplemental air bag
. Seat belt with pretensioner (front and
rear outboard seats)
Supplemental front-impact air bag sys-
tem: The NISSAN Advanced Air Bag Sys-
tem can help cushion the impact force to
the head and chest of the driver and front
passenger in certain frontal collisions.
Driver and front passenger supplemen-
tal knee air bag system: This system can
help cushion the impact force to the
driver’s and front passenger’s knees in
certain collisions. Front seat-mounted side-impact sup-
plemental air bag system:This system
can help cushion the impact force to the
chest and pelvic area of the driver and
front passenger in certain side impact
collisions. The side air bag is designed to
inflate on the side where the vehicle is
impacted.
Rear outboard seat-mounted side-im-
pact supplemental air bag system:
This
system can help cushion the impact force
to the chest and pelvic area of the rear
outboard seat passengers in certain side-
impact collisions. The side air bags are
designed to inflate on the side where the
vehicle is impacted.
Front central seat-mounted side-im-
pact supplemental air bag (if so
equipped): This system can help cushion
the impact force to the head area of the
driver and front passenger in certain side-
impact collisions. The front central side-
impact air bag is designed to inflate in the
front central area where the vehicle is
impacted.
Roof-mounted curtain side-impact and
rollover supplemental air bag system:
This system can help cushion the impact
force to the heads of occupants in front
and rear outboard seating positions in
certain side impact or rollover collisions.
In a side-impact, the curtain air bags are designed to inflate on the side where the
vehicle is impacted. In a rollover, the
curtain air bags on both sides are de-
signed to inflate. Under both side-impact
and rollover situations, the curtain air
bags will remain inflated for a short
period of time.
These supplemental restraint systems are
designed to
supplement the crash pro-
tection provided by the driver, passenger
and rear outboard seat belts and are not
a substitute for them. Seat belts should
always be correctly worn and the occu-
pant seated a suitable distance away
from the steering wheel, instrument pa-
nel and door finishers. (See “Seat belts”
(P.1-13) for instructions and precautions
on seat belt usage.)
The supplemental air bags operate only
when the ignition switch is in the ON
position.
After the ignition is placed in the ON
position, the supplemental air bag
warning light illuminates. The supple-
mental air bag warning light will turn
off after about 7 seconds if the systems
are operational.
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)

SSS0131
SSS0132
WARNING
.The front air bags ordinarily will
not inflate in the event of a side
impact, rear impact, rollover, or
lower severity frontal collision.
Always wear your seat belts to
help reduce the risk or severity of
injury in various kinds of acci-
dents.
. The front passenger air bag and
passenger knee air bag will not
inflate if the front passenger air
bag status light is lit. See “Front
passenger air bag and status
light” (P.1-54).
. The seat belts and the front air
bags are most effective when you
are sitting well back and upright
in the seat with both feet on the
floor. The front air bags inflate
with great force. Even with the
NISSAN Advanced Air Bag System,
if you are unrestrained, leaning
forward, sitting sideways or out
of position in any way, you are at
greater risk of injury or death in a
crash. You may also receive ser-
ious or fatal injuries from the
front air bag if you are up against
it when it inflates. Always sit back
Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-47

against the seatback and as far-
away as practical from the steer-
ing wheel or instrument panel.
Always properly use the seat
belts.
. The driver and front passenger
seat belt buckles are equipped
with sensors that detect if the
seat belts are fastened. The Ad-
vanced Air Bag System monitors
the severity of a collision and seat
belt usage then inflates the air
bags as needed. Failure to prop-
erly wear seat belts can increase
the risk or severity of injury in an
accident.
. The front passenger seat is
equipped with occupant classifi-
cation sensors (weight sensors)
that turn the front passenger air
bag and front passenger knee air
bag OFF under some conditions.
These sensors are only used in
this seat. Failure to be properly
seated and wearing the seat belt
can increase the risk or severity
of injury in an accident. See
“Front passenger air bag and
status light” (P.1-54).
. Keep hands on the outside of the
steering wheel. Placing them in-
side the steering wheel rim could increase the risk that they are
injured if the front air bag in-
flates.

WARNING
.Never let children ride unrest-
rained or extend their hands or
face out of the window. Do not
attempt to hold them in your lap
or arms. Some examples of dan-
gerous riding positions are
shown in the illustrations.
. Children may be severely injured
or killed when the front air bags,
side air bags or curtain air bags
inflate if they are not properly
restrained. Pre-teens and chil-
dren should be properly re-
strained in the rear seat, if
possible.
. Even with the NISSAN Advanced
Air Bag System, never install a
rear-facing child restraint in the
front seat. An inflating front air
bag could seriously injure or kill
your child. See “Child restraints”
(P.1-23) for details.
