7.Place the left shoulder harness over the
child's left shoulder. Insert the left shoulder
harness tongue into the left side of the belt
buckle. Confirm that the left shoulder har-
ness tongue indicator is green. The shoul-
der harness tongues only fit into the proper
sides of the belt buckle.
8.Place the right shoulder harness over the
child's right shoulder. Insert the right shoul-
der harness tongue into the right side of the
belt buckle. Confirm that the right shoulder
harness tongue indicator is green. The
shoulder harness tongues only fit into the
proper sides of the belt buckle.
9. Fasten the two halves of the chest clip
and confirm that the chest clip indicator is
green. Adjust the chest clip (slightly lower
than the child's shoulders) so it comfort-
ably holds the shoulder harness in positi-
ton on the child's shoulders.
WARNING
cShoulder harness tongues and chest
clips are equipped with visual indica-
tors to confirm proper and secure
latching. For the safety of the child
and occupants of the vehicle, all indi-cators must show green before oper-
ating the vehicle.
cIf the shoulder harness is unfas-
tened or not fastened properly, the
child could be seriously injured.
10. Grasp the right shoulder harness above
the chest clip and pull until the harness
fully extends and a click is heard. At this
time, the harness retractor is in the
automatic locking mode (child restraint
mode). With the child sitting properly
(straight up and back) in the integrated
child safety seat, allow the right shoul-

ZX
der harness to retract over the right
shoulder and securely restrain the child.
A clicking sound is heard as the har-
ness retracts, indicating that the retrac-
tor is in the automatic locking mode. Be
sure the left shoulder harness is also
properly positioned over the child's left
shoulder.
11. Check that the shoulder harness is in
the automatic locking mode by trying to
pull the shoulder harness out of the
retractor. If you cannot pull any of the
shoulder harness webbing out of the
retractor, the shoulder harness is in the
automatic locking mode. If the shoulder
harness is not locked, repeat step 10. If,
after repeated attempts, the integrated
child safety seat shoulder harness can-
not be placed in the automatic locking
mode, do not use the integrated child
safety seat and have it inspected by an
authorized NISSAN dealer.
To cancel the automatic locking mode, un-
buckle the chest clip and both shoulder
harness tongues. Allow the shoulder har-
nesses to retract completely. The automatic
locking mode is now canceled and theshoulder harness retractor is in the emer-
gency locking mode.
WARNING
The automatic locking mode (child re-
straint mode) must be reactivated each
time you place a child in the integrated
child safety seats.
In addition to the automatic locking retrac-
tors, the integrated child safety seat shoul-
der harnesses are equipped with emer-
gency locking retractors. The automatic
locking mode is best to use, especially for
children who need help staying properly
positioned in the seat and its harnesses (for
example, children who are younger and
smaller), because the belts are always
locked. In the emergency locking mode, the
shoulder belts only lock in a sudden stop or
accident, allowing a child more freedom of
movement. Use the emergency locking
mode only if you judge your child able to
remain properly positioned in the integrated
child safety seat.
Removing the child
1. Release the chest clip.
2. Release the left and right shoulder har-ness tongues from the belt buckle by
pressing the red belt buckle button.
3. Move the left and right shoulder har-
nesses aside and assist the child from
the integrated child safety seat.
Storing the Integrated Child Safety
Seat
1. Be sure the shoulder harnesses are fully
retracted and resting inside the inte-
grated child safety seat recess. It is not
necessary to reconnect the shoulder har-
nesses and belt buckle prior to storing
the integrated child safety seat.
2. While holding onto, but not pulling, the
cushion release strap, rotate the cushion
upward until it fits flush with the second
row seat back cushion and locks into
position.
3. Be sure the integrated child safety seat is
locked in the stowed position by grasping
the safety seat cushion and attempting to
lower it without pulling the cushion re-
lease strap. If the integrated child safety
seat is not locked in the stowed position,
repeat steps one through three.
