Shoulder belt height adjustment (front
seats only)
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, depress the adjustment button as illus-
trated and move the shoulder belt anchor to the
appropriate position, so that the belt passes over the centre of the shoulder. Release the adjustment
button to lock the shoulder belt anchor into position.
WARNING
After adjustment, release the adjustment but-
ton and check by moving the shoulder belt
assembly up and down to make sure the
shoulder belt anchor is securely fixed in posi-
tion.
The seat belt should be away from your face
and neck, but not falling off your shoulder.
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:
Take place in the seat for which you wish to check
the belt operation. Grasp the shoulder belt and pull
quickly forward. The retractor should lock and re-
strict further belt movement.
If the retractor does not lock during these checks or
if you have any questions about the seat belt opera-
tion, see a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
SEAT BELT MAINTENANCE
To clean the seat belt webbing, apply a mild
soap solution or any solution recommended for
cleaning upholstery or carpets. Then brush it,
wipe with a cloth and allow it to dry in the shade.
Do not allow the seat belts to retract until they
are completely dry.
If dirt builds up in the shoulder belt guide of
the seat belt anchors, the seat belts may retract
slowly. Wipe the shoulder belt guide with a clean,
dry cloth.
Periodically check to see whether the seat
belt and the metal components such as buck-
les, tongues, retractors, flexible wires and an-
chors work properly. If loose parts, deteriora-
tion, cuts or other damage to the webbing is
found, the entire belt assembly should be re-
placed.

PRECAUTIONS ON CHILD
RESTRAINT USAGE
Infants and small children should alwaysbe placed
in an infant or child restraint while riding in the ve-
hicle.
WARNING
Infants and small children should never be
carried on your lap. It is not possible for even
the strongest adult to resist the forces of an
accident. The child could be crushed between
the adult and parts of the vehicle. Also, do not
put the same seat belt around a child and
yourself. In general, child restraints are de-
signed to be installed with the lap portion of a
three-point type seat belt.
NISSAN recommends installing the child re-
straint on the rear seat. According to accident
statistics, children are safer when properly re-
strained in the rear seat than in the front seat.

CHILD RESTRAINTS
1-18Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine An improperly installed child restraint could
lead to serious injury in an accident.
Child restraints specially designed for infants and
small children are offered by several manufacturers.
When selecting any child restraint, keep the follow-
ing points in mind:
Choose a child restraint that complies with the
latest European safety standard, ECE Regula-
tion 44.04.
Place your child in the child restraint and check
the various adjustments to be sure that the child
restraint is suitable for your child. Always follow
all of the recommended procedures.
Check the child restraint in your vehicle to be
sure it is compatible with the vehicle’s seat belt
system.
Refer to the tables further on in this section for a
list of the recommended fitment positions and
the approved child restraint for your vehicle.
WARNING
Never install a rear facing child restraint in the
front seat without first deactivating the front
passenger air bag.
Adjustable seatbacks should be positioned to
fit the child seat; however, the seatback
should be as upright as possible.
Follow all of the child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions for installation and use.
Choose a child restraint appropriate to the
child and the vehicle. It may not be possible
to properly install some types of child restraint
in your vehicle.
Improper use of a child restraint can increase
injuries to the infant or child and other occu-
pants in the vehicle.
When your child restraint is not in use, keep it
secured with a seat belt to prevent it from
being thrown forwards in case of a sudden
stop or accident.
Remember that a child restraint left in a closed
vehicle can become very hot. Check the seat-
ing surface and buckles before placing your
child in the child restraint.
After attaching a child restraint, test the seat
before you place the child in it. Check that it
does not tilt too far from side to side. Try to
tug it forwards and check whether the belt
holds it in place. If the restraint is not secure,
tighten the belt as necessary, or put the re-
straint in another seat and test it again.
If the child restraint is not anchored properly,
the risk of a child being injured in a collision
or sudden stop greatly increases.
The front passenger seat should be
positioned to fit the child seat appropriately.
See “Installation of a child restraint system on
the front passenger seat” later in this section.
For a front facing child restraint installed on a
three-point type lap/shoulder belt, make sure the shoulder belt does not go in front of the
child’s face or neck. If it does, put the shoul-
der belt behind the child restraint.
If the child restraint is equipped with a locking
clip, ensure that the clip is securely fastened
to the vehicle seat belt. If the locking clip is
not used, injuries could result from the child
restraint tipping over during normal vehicle
braking or cornering.
Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-19
Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Rear facing
If you must install a child restraint system in the front
seat, follow these steps:
1. Deactivate the front passenger air bag. See“Front passenger air bag deactivation system”
earlier in this section for further details.
2. Move the seat to the rearmost position.
3. Adjust the head restraint to its highest position. Remove it if it interferes with the child restraint
installation. In such situations, securely store the
head restraint in the luggage compartment so
that it does not become a dangerous projectile
during a sudden stop or in an accident.
4. Position the child restraint system in the front passenger seat.
Always follow the child restraint system manu-
facturer’s instructions for installation and use. 5. Route the seat belt tongue through the child re-
straint system and insert it into the buckle until
you hear and feel the latch engage.
To prevent slack in the lap belt, secure the shoul-
der belt in place with a locking clip
jA. Use a
locking clip attached to the child restraint sys-
tem, or one which is equivalent in dimensions
and strength.
Be sure to follow the child restraint system
manufacturer’s instructions for belt routing.
6. Slide the seat forwards so that the seat belt fully tightens the child restraint system and the child
restraint reaches the vehicle dashboard.
7. Test the child restraint system before you place the child in it. Check that it does not tilt too far
from side to side. Try to tug it forwards and check
if it is held securely in place.
INSTALLATION OF A CHILD
RESTRAINT SYSTEM ON REAR
SEATS
WARNING
NISSAN recommends that infants or small
children be seated in a child restraint system.
According to accident statistics, children are
safer when properly restrained in the rear seat
than in the front seat.
The direction of the child restraint system de-
pends on the type of the child restraint sys-
tem and the size of the child.

ISOFIX SYSTEM (where fitted)
WARNING
Attach ISOFIX compatible child restraint sys-
tems only at the locations shown. If a child
restraint is not secured properly, your child
could be seriously injured or killed in an acci-
dent.
The rear seat is equipped with 2 ISOFIX com-
patible child restraint systems, on both outer
seats ONLY. Do not secure a child restraint in
the rear centre seating position using the child
restraint lower anchors. The child restraint will
not be secured properly.
The ISOFIX system anchors are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed by cor-
rectly fitted child restraints. Under no circum-
stances are they to be used for adult seat
belts or harnesses.
Some child restraints include two rigid or webbing-
mounted attachments that can be connected to two
anchors located at certain seating positions in your
vehicle. This system is known as the ISOFIX or
ISOFIX compatible system. With this system, you
do not have to use a vehicle seat belt to secure the
child restraint. Your vehicle is equipped with special
anchor points that are used with ISOFIX system
compatible child restraints on the rear seat. Check
your child restraint for a label stating that it is com-
patible with the ISOFIX system. This information
may also be in the child restraint owner’s manual. If
you have such a child restraint, refer to the illustra-
tion for the rear seating positions equipped with
ISOFIX system anchors which can be used to se-
cure the child restraint.
The ISOFIX system anchors are located at the rear
of the seat cushion near the seatback on the rear
seat. Labels are attached to the seat cushion to help
you locate the ISOFIX system anchors (as illus-
trated). CAUTION
The child restraint may also require the use of
a top tether strap. See “Top tether strap for
child restraint” later in this section for instal-
lation instructions. Alternatively, the child re-
straint may require an anti-rotation device
such as support leg. Refer to the child re-
straint system manufacturer’s instructions.
When installing a child restraint, carefully read
and follow the instructions in this manual and
those supplied with the child restraint.
When you install an ISOFIX system compatible child
restraint to the lower anchor attachments in the rear
seat, follow these steps:
1. Inspect the lower anchors by inserting your fin- gers into the lower anchor area and make sure
there are no obstructions over the ISOFIX sys-
tem anchors, such as seat belt webbing or seat
cushion material. The child restraint will not be
secured properly if the ISOFIX system anchors
are obstructed.
2. To install the ISOFIX system compatible child restraint, insert the child restraint ISOFIX system
anchor attachments into the anchor points on the
rear seat. See “Top tether strap for child
restraint” later in this section for installation in-
structions.
3. Fit the ISOFIX funnel guides (supplied with the
