2000 NISSAN QUEST child restraint

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.

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
seats, all related components should be
inspected for damage by an authorized NIS-
SAN dealer. Damage to the integrated child
safety seat or related components must be
repaired.
