tenance
cTo clean the shoulder harnesses and belt
buckle webbing, apply a mild soap solu-
tion or any solution recommended for
cleaning upholstery or carpets. Then
brush the webbing, wipe it with a cloth
and allow it to dry in the shade. Do not
allow the shoulder harnesses to retract
until they are completely dry.
cThe integrated child safety seats cloth
removable pads may be cleaned with
mild soap and water. The cloth remov-
able pads are attached to the seats with
fastener strips, and may be easily re-
moved. The pads are machine washable.
Fo best results, machine wash in cold
water in the gentle cycle. Tumble dry on
low heat. Do not use chlorine bleach, and
do not dry clean.
CAUTION
Failure to follow the washing instruc-
tions provided on the cloth removable
pads may result in premature wear or
damage.cPeriodically inspect the belt and metal
components of the integrated child safety
seats, such as the buckles, tongues,
shoulder harness webbings, and latching
indicators. Periodically check the func-
tion of the integrated child safety seat
shoulder harness retractor functions. If
loose parts, deterioration, cuts, frays,
malfunctions or other damage to the belt
webbings or metal parts are found, see
an authorized NISSAN dealer for repairs.
Inspection after an accident
If your vehicle was involved in an accident,
before using the integrated child safety

Record the key number and keep it in a safe
place (such as your wallet), NOT IN THE
CAR. A key number plate is supplied with
your key. Keep the plate in a safe place.
NISSAN does not record key numbers so it
is very important to keep track of your key
number plate.
A key number is necessary only when you
have lost all vehicle keys and do not have
one to duplicate. If you still have a key, this
key can be duplicated by an authorized
NISSAN dealer or locksmith shop.
Two keys are supplied with your vehicle Ð
one has a plastic head and one is all metal.
Both keys perform the same functions.
WARNING
cAlways 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
unintentionally opening the doors,
and will help keep out intruders.
cBefore opening any door, always
look for and avoid oncoming traffic.
c
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.
CAUTION
cAlways use the door handle to open
or close the sliding door. Do not
attempt to open or close the door by
merely placing your hand on the
door edge or door slide roller, as this
may cause injury.cWhen opening the sliding door on a
slope, ensure that it is fully open and
that it does not close by itself.
