2007 NISSAN QUEST lock

s2Slowly pull the seat belt out of the retractor
and insert the tongue into the buckle until
you hear and feel the latch engage.
cThe retractor is designed to lock during
a sudden stop or on impact. A slow
pulling motion permits the seat belt to
move, and allows you some freedom of
movement in the seat.
cIf the seat belt cannot be pulled from
its fully retracted position, firmly pull
the belt and release it. Then smoothly
pull the belt out of the retractor.s3Position the lap belt portionlow and snug
on the hipsas shown.
s4Pull the shoulder belt portion toward the
retractor to take up extra slack. Be sure the
shoulder belt is routed over your shoulder
and across your chest.
The front passenger seat, 2nd row captain’s
chairs and the rear bench seat three-point seat
belts have a locking mechanism for child restraint
installation. It is referred to as the automatic lock-
ing mode or child restraint mode.
When automatic locking mechanism is activated
the seat belt cannot be extended again until the
seat belt tongue is detached from the buckle andfully retracted. Once retracted, the seat belt is in
the emergency locking mode. See “Child re-
straints” later in this section for more information.
The automatic locking mode should be
used only for child restraint installation.
During normal seat belt use by a passen-
ger, the locking mode should not be acti-
vated. If it is activated it may cause uncom-
fortable seat belt tension. It can also
change the operation of the front passen-
ger air bag. See “Front passenger air bag
and status light” later in this section.
WARNING
When fastening the seat belts, be certain
that the seatbacks are completely se-
cured in the latched position. If they are
not completely secured, passengers may
be injured in an accident or sudden stop.WRS0137WRS0138

cWhen attaching the rear center seat
belt connector, be certain that the seat-
backs are completely secured in the
latched position and the rear center
seat belt connector is completely
secured.
cIf the rear center seat belt connector
and the seatbacks are not secured in
the correct position, serious personal

den stop.
Shoulder belt height adjustment (Front
and 2nd row seats)
The shoulder belt anchor height should be ad-
justed to the position best for you. (See “Precau-
tions on seat belt usage” earlier in this section.)
To adjust, push or pull out
s1the adjustment
button and move the shoulder belt anchor
s2to
the desired position, so the belt passes over the
center of the shoulder. The belt should be away
from your face and neck, but not falling off your

the shoulder belt anchor into position.
WARNING
cAfter adjustment, release the adjust-
ment button and try to move the shoul-
der belt anchor up and down to make
sure it is securely fixed in position.
cThe shoulder belt anchor height should
be adjusted to the position best for you.
Failure to do so may reduce the effec-
tiveness of the entire restraint system
and increase the chance or severity of
injury in an accident.

cNISSAN recommends that child re-
straints be installed in the rear seat.
However, if you must install a forward-
facing child restraint in the front pas-
senger seat, move the passenger seat
to the rearmost position. Also, be sure
the front passenger air bag status light
is illuminated to indicate the passenger
air bag is OFF. See “Front passenger air
bag and status light” earlier in this sec-
tion for details.
cThe three-point seat belt in your vehicle
is equipped with an automatic locking
mode retractor which must be used
when installing a child restraint.
cFailure to use the retractor’s locking
mode will result in the child restraint
not being properly secured. The re-
straint could tip over or otherwise be
unsecured and cause injury to the child
in a sudden stop or collision. Also, it can
change the operation of the front pas-
senger air bag. See “Front passenger
air bag and status light” later in this
section.cWhen installing a child restraint system
in the rear center position, both the
center seat belt connector tongue and
buckle tongue must be secured. See
“Attaching the 3rd row center seat belt”
earlier in this section.
cA child restraint with a top tether strap
should not be used in the front passen-
ger seat except for the 2-passenger
cargo van.
cFront-facing child restraints can be in-
stalled in all 3rd row bench seat posi-
tions. However, front-facing child re-
straints that require the use of a top
tether strap can be installed in the cen-
ter 3rd row position only. Do not install
a child restraint requiring a top tether
strap in an outboard position and at-
tempt to angle the tether to the 3rd row
center anchor.
The instructions in this section apply to child
restraint installation using the vehicle seat belts in
the rear seats or the front passenger seat.
Front-facing
Follow these steps to install a front-facing child
restraint using the vehicle seat belt in the rear
seats or in the front passenger seat:
1.If you must install a child restraint in
the front seat, it should be placed in a
front-facing direction only. Move the
seat to the rearmost position. Child
restraints for infants must be used in
the rear-facing direction and therefore
must not be used in the front seat.
