child restraint, insert the child restraint
LATCH system anchor attachments into the
anchor points on the seat. If the child re-
straint is equipped with a top tether, see
“Top tether strap child restraint” later in this
section for installation instructions.

TOP TETHER STRAP CHILD
RESTRAINT
If your child restraint has a top tether strap, it must
be secured to the anchor point provided behind
its position.
WARNING
Child restraint anchor points are designed
to withstand only those loads imposed by
correctly fitted child restraints. Under no
circumstances are they to be used for
adult seat belts or harnesses.First, secure the child restraint with the seat belt
or the LATCH system (2nd row outboard seat
positions only) , as applicable.
For the 2nd row bench seats (if so equipped)
outboard seating positions only, adjust the head
restraint to its highest position and route the top
tether strap between the head restraint and the
top of the seatback. Secure the tether strap to the
tether anchor point on the floor directly behind
the seat. The center position of the 2nd row
bench seat is not equipped with a top tether
anchor point.
For the 2nd row captain’s chairs (if so equipped) ,
adjust the head restraint to its highest position
and route the top tether strap between the head
restraint and the top of the seatback. Secure the
tether strap to the tether anchor point on the floor
directly behind the seat.
The center position of the 3rd row bench seat is
the seating position that can use a top tether
strap. The center 3rd row seat position does not
have a head restraint. Position the top tether
strap over the top of the seatback and secure it to
the tether anchor bracket as shown later in this
section. Tighten the tether strap according to the
manufacturer’s instructions to remove any slack.
WARNING
In the 3rd row bench seat, a child restraint
with a top tether strap can only be used in
the center position. Do not place in an
outboard seating position and attempt to
angle the tether strap to the center
position.

If you must install a child restraint in the front seat,
follow these steps:
s1Position 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 in-
structions.Child restraints for infants
must be used in the rear-facing direc-
tion and therefore must not be used in
the front seat.The back of the child restraint should be
secured against the vehicle seat back. If
necessary, adjust or remove the head re-
straint 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

PRECAUTIONS ON BOOSTER
SEATS
WARNING
cInfants and small children should al-
ways be placed in an appropriate child
restraint while riding in the vehicle.
Failure to use a child restraint or
booster seat can result in serious injury
or death.
cInfants 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 accident. The child
could be crushed between the adult and
parts of the vehicle. Also, do not put the
same seat belt around both your child
and yourself.
cNISSAN recommends that the booster
seat be installed in the rear seat. Ac-
cording to accident statistics, children
are safer when properly restrained in
the rear seat than in the front seat.cA booster seat must only be installed in
a seating position that has a
lap/shoulder belt. Failure to use a
three-point type seat belt with a
booster seat can result in a serious in-
jury in sudden stop or collision.
cAn improperly installed booster seat
could lead to serious injury or death in
an accident.
