PRECAUTIONS ON CHILD
RESTRAINTS
WARNING
Infants and small children should al-
ways be placed in an appropriate
child restraint while riding in the ve-
hicle. Failure to use a child restraint
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 acci-
dent. The child could be crushed be-
tween the adult and parts of the ve-
hicle. Also, do not put the same seat
belt around both your child and your-
self.
Never install a rear facing child re-
straint in the front seat. An inflating
supplemental air bag could seriously
injure or kill your child. A rear facing
child restraint must only be used in
the rear seat.NISSAN recommends that the child
restraint be installed in the rear seat.
According to accident statistics, chil-
dren are safer when properly re-
strained in the rear seat than in the
front seat.
An improperly installed child re-
straint could lead to serious injury or
death in an accident.
In general, child restraints are designed to be
installed with the lap portion of a three-point type
seat belt. In addition, this vehicle is equipped
with a universal child restraint lower anchor
system, referred to as the LATCH (Lower An-
chors and Tethers for CHildren) system. Some
child restraints include two rigid or webbing-
mounted attachments that can be connected to
these lower anchors. For details, see “LATCH
(Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren) SYS-
TEM” later in this section.
Child restraints for infants and children of various
sizes are offered by several manufacturers.
When selecting any child restraint, keep the
following points in mind:
choose only a restraint with a label certifying
that it complies with Canadian Motor VehicleSafety Standard 213 or Federal Motor Ve-
hicle Safety Standard 213.
check the child restraint in your vehicle to be
sure it is compatible with the vehicle’s seat
and seat belt system.
if the child restraint is compatible with your
vehicle, place your child in the child restraint
and check the various adjustments to be sure
the child restraint is compatible with your
child. Choose a child restraint that is de-
signed for your child’s height and weight.
Always follow all recommended procedures.
Canadian provinces and all US states re-
quire that infants and small children be
restrained in approved child restraints at
all times while the vehicle is being oper-
ated.
WARNING
Improper use of a child restraint can
result in increased injuries for both
the infant or child and other occu-
pants in the vehicle.
Follow all of the child restraint manu-
facturer’s instructions for installation

Front facingWhen you install a child restraint in a rear
outboard or center seat, follow these steps:
1. Position the child restraint on the seat. Al-
ways follow the restraint manufacturer’s in-
structions.
The back of the child restraint should be
secured against the vehicle seatback. If nec-
essary, adjust or remove the head restraint to
obtain the correct child restraint fit. See
“Head restraint adjustment” earlier in this
section. If the head restraint is removed, store
it in a secure place. Be sure to install thehead 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.2. 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 manufac-
turer’s instructions for belt routing.

Front facingIf you must install a child restraint in the front
seat, follow these steps:
1. Position the child restraint on the front pas-
senger seat.It should be placed in a front
facing direction only.Move the seat to the
rearmost position. Adjust the head restraint to
its highest position. Always follow the child
restraint manufacturer’s instructions.Child
restraints for infants must be used in
the rear facing direction and therefore
must not be used in the front seat.
The back of the child restraint should besecured against the vehicle seatback. If nec-
essary, adjust or remove the head restraint to
obtain the correct child restraint fit. See
“Head restraint adjustment” 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.

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
1
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
2
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 proce-
dures.All U.S. states and provinces of Canada
require that infants and small children be
restrained in an approved child restraint at
all times while the vehicle is being oper-
ated.
WARNING
Improper use of a booster seat can
increase the risk or severity of injury
for both the child and other occu-
pants of the vehicle.
Follow all of the booster seat manu-
facturer’s instructions for installation
and use. When purchasing a booster
seat, be sure to select one which will
fit your child and vehicle. It may not
be possible to properly install some
types of booster seats in your ve-
hicle.
If the booster seat and seat belt are
not used properly, the risk of a child
being injured in a collision or a sud-
den stop greatly increases.Adjustable seatbacks should be po-
sitioned to fit the booster seat, but as
upright as possible.
After placing the child in the booster
seat and fastening the seat belt,
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 abdomen.
Do not put the shoulder belt behind
the child or under the child’s arm. If
you must install a booster seat in the
front seat, see “Booster seat instal-
lation on front passenger seat” later
in this section.
When your booster seat is not in use,
keep it secured with a seat belt to
prevent it from being thrown around
in case of a sudden stop or accident.

WARNING
Always have the doors locked while
driving. Along with the use of seat
belts, this provides greater safety in
the event of an accident by helping to
prevent persons from being thrown
from the vehicle. This also helps keep
children and others from uninten-
tionally opening the doors, and will
help keep out intruders.
Before opening any door, always
look for and avoid oncoming traffic.
Do not leave children unattended in-
side the vehicle. They could unknow-
ingly activate switches or controls.
Unattended children could become
involved in serious accidents.
LOCKING WITH KEYThe power door lock system allows you to lock
or unlock all doors simultaneously.
Turning the driver’s door key to the front of
the vehicle
1
will lock all doors (including
the back door).
Turning the driver’s door key one time to the
rear of the vehicle2
will unlock the driver’s
door. From that position, returning the key to
neutral (where the key can only be removed
and inserted) and turning it to the rear again
within 5 seconds will unlock all doors.
LOCKING WITH INSIDE LOCK
KNOBTo individually lock the doors, move the inside
lock knobto the LOCK
1
position, then close
the door.
To unlock, pull the inside lock knobup to the
UNLOCK
2
position.
When locking the door without a key, be
sure not to leave the key inside the vehicle.
