FRONT SEATS
Manual seat adjustment
WARNING
•Do not adjust the driver’s seat while driving.
The seat may move suddenly and could cause
loss of control of the vehicle.
•After adjustment, gently rock in the seat to
make sure it is securely locked.
•The seatback should not be reclined any more
than needed for comfort. Seat belts are most
effective when the passenger sits well back
and upright in the seat. If the seatback is re-
clined, the risk of sliding under the lap belt
and being injured is increased.
Forward and backward:
Pull the bar
j1 up while you slide the seat forward
or backward to the desired position. Release the
bar to lock the seat in position.Seat lifter (driver’s seat – where fitted):
Pull up or push down the lever
j2 to adjust the
angle and the height of the seat cushion to the de-
sired position.
Reclining:
Turn the dial
j3 and lean back until the desired
angle is obtained. To return the seatback forward,
turn the dial and move your body forward.
REAR SEAT
WARNING
•When the vehicle is being used to carry cargo,
properly secure all cargo to help prevent it
from sliding or shifting. Do not place cargo
higher than the seatbacks. In a sudden stop
or collision, unsecured cargo could cause per-
sonal injury.
•Seats should always be set into a latched con-
dition when the vehicle is in motion. Make
sure the rear bench seat is adequately latched
every time it has been previously slid. If it is
not completely secured, passengers may be
injured in an accident or sudden stop.
•Never allow anyone to ride in the luggage area
or on the rear seat when it is in the fold-down
position. Use of these areas by passengers
without proper restraints could result in seri-
ous injury in an accident or sudden stop.
•When returning the seatbacks to the upright
position, be certain that they are completely

3. Position the lap belt portionlow on the hipsas
shown.
4. Pull the shoulder belt portion toward the retrac-
tor to take up extra slack. Make sure the shoul-
der belt is routed over your shoulder and snug
across your chest.
WARNING
•The seat belt should rest on the middle of the
shoulder. It must not rest against the neck.
•Make sure that the seat belt is not twisted in
any way.
Selecting the correct set of belts
The rear centre seat belt buckle is identified by the
markjA . The centre seat belt tongue can only be
fastened into the centre seat belt buckle.
Shoulder belt height adjustment (front
seats only – where fitted)
The shoulder belt anchor height should be adjusted
to the position best for you (see “Precautions on
seat belt usage” earlier in this section).To adjust, pull the release button
j1 and move the
shoulder belt anchorj2 to the appropriate position,
so that the belt passes over the centre of the shoul-
der. Release when the appropriate position has
been found in order to lock the shoulder belt anchor
into position. The belt should be away from your
face and neck, but not falling off your shoulder.
WARNING
•After adjustment, release the button or knob
and check by moving the shoulder belt as-
sembly up and down to make sure the shoul-
der belt anchor is securely fixed in position.
•The seat belt should be away from your face
and neck, but not falling off your shoulder.
Unfastening the seat belts
To unfasten the seat belt, press the button on the
buckle. The seat belt will automatically retract.
Checking the seat belt operation
Your seat belt retractors are designed to lock the
belt movement in two separate situations:
•When the belt is pulled quickly from the retrac-
tor.
•When the vehicle slows down rapidly.
To increase your confidence in the belts, check the
operation as follows:

TYRE AGE
Remember tyre age. Never use a tyre over six years
old, regardless of whether they have been used or
not.
Tyres degrade with age as well as the use they are
subjected to. Have the tyres checked and balanced
frequently by a NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop. Report all accidents where the tyre is knocked
even if it is minor.
CHANGING TYRES AND WHEELS
WARNING
Do not install a deformed wheel or tyre even if it
has been repaired. Such wheels or tyres could
have structural damage and could fail without
warning.
When replacing a tyre, use the same size, speed
rating and load carrying capacity as originally
equipped. Recommended types and sizes are men-
tioned in “Wheels and tyres” in the “9. Technical
information” section.
The use of tyres other than those recommended or
the mixed use of tyres of different brands, construc-
tion (bias, bias-belted or radial), or tread patterns
can adversely affect the ride, braking, handling,
ground clearance, body-to-tyre clearance, snow
chain clearance, speedometer calibration, headlight
aim and bumper height.
WARNING
Some of these effects may lead to accidents and
could result in serious personal injury.
If the wheels are changed for any reason, always
replace with wheels which have the same offset
dimension. Wheels of a different offset could cause
early tyre wear, possibly degraded vehicle handling
characteristics and/or interference with the brake
discs/drums. Such interference can lead to
decreased braking efficiency and/or early brake
pad/shoe wear.
WHEEL BALANCE
Unbalanced wheels may affect vehicle handling and
tyre life. Even with regular use, wheels can get out
of balance. Therefore, they should be balanced as
required.
Wheel balance service should be performed with
the wheels off the vehicle. Spin balancing the front
wheels on the vehicle could lead to transmission
damage.
SPARE TYRE
The temporary-use spare wheel/tyre can be identi-
fied by the temporary-use spare tyre label which
contrasts to the standard road wheels. If in doubt,
contact a NISSAN dealer, qualified workshop or
see “Spare tyre” in the “6. In case of emergency”
section.
CARE OF WHEELS
For details, see “Care of wheels” in the “7. Appear-
ance and care” section.

should first find out if the fuel available is suitable for
your vehicle’s engine.
Using fuel with too low octane/cetane rating may
cause engine damage. Therefore, avoid taking your
vehicle to areas where appropriate fuel is not avail-
able.
When transferring your vehicle registration to an-
other country,check with the appropriate authori-
ties that the vehicle complies with the requirements
as it may not be possible to adapt it. In some cases,
a vehicle cannot meet the legal requirements and in
other cases, it may be necessary to modify the ve-
hicle to meet specific laws and regulations.
The laws and regulations for motor vehicle emission
control and safety standards vary according to the
country; therefore, vehicle specifications may differ.
NISSAN is not responsible for any inconvenience
when the vehicle is taken and registered into an-
other country. The necessary modifications,
transportation and registration are the owner’s
responsibility.VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION PLATE
