Installation on front passenger seat
WARNING
c
Never install a rear-facing child re-
straint in the front passenger seat.
Supplemental air bags inflate with
great force. A rear-facing child re-
straint could be struck by the supple-
mental air bag in a crash and could
seriously injure or kill your child.
cNISSAN recommends that child re-
straints be installed in the rear seat.
However, if you install a forward-facing child restraint in the front pas-
senger seat, move the passenger
seat to the rearmost position.
cA child restraint with a top strap
should not be used in the front pas-
senger seat.
cThe three-point belt in your vehicle
is equipped with an automatic lock-
ing mode retractor which must be
used when installing a child re-
straint.cFailure to use the retractor's locking
mode will result in the child restraint
not being properly secured. The seat
could tip over or otherwise be unse-
cured and cause injury to the child in
a sudden stop or collision.
