CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION
USING LATCH (except for Cargo Van
models)
WARNING
.
Attach LATCH system compatible
child restraints only at the locations
shown. For the LATCH lower anchor
locations, see “Lower Anchors and
Tethers for CHildren System
(LATCH) (except for Cargo Van mod-
els)” earlier in this section. If a child
restraint is not secured properly,
your child could be seriously injured
or killed in an accident.
. The LATCH anchors are designed to
withstand only those loads imposed
by correctly fitted child restraints.
Under no circumstance are they to
be used for adult seat belts or

4. The back of the child restraint should besecured against the seatback.
If necessary, remove the headrest to obtain
the correct child restraint fit. (See “ADJUS-
TABLE HEADRESTS” earlier in this sec-
tion.)
If the headrest is removed, store it in a
secure place. Be sure to reinstall the
headrest when the child restraint is re-
moved. If the seating position does not have
a removal headrest and it is interfering with
the proper child restraint fit, try another
seating position or a different child restraint.

5. For child restraints that are equipped withwebbing-mounted attachments, remove any
additional slack from the anchor attach-
ments. Press downward and rearward firmly
in the center of the child restraint with your
knee to compress the vehicle seat cushion
and seatback while tightening the webbing
of the anchor attachments.
6. If the child restraint is equipped with a top tether strap, route the top tether strap and
secure the tether strap to the tether anchor
point. (See “TOP TETHER STRAP CHILD

7. After attaching the child restraint, test itbefore you place the child in it. Push it from
side to side while holding the seat near the
LATCH attachment path. The child restraint
should not move more than 1 inch (25 mm)
from side to side. Try to tug it forward and
check to see if the LATCH attachment holds
the restraint in place. If the restraint is not
secure, tighten the LATCH attachment as
necessary, or put the restraint in another
seat and test it again. You may need to try a
different child restraint. Not all child re-
straints fit in all types of vehicles.

Front-facing (front passenger seat) — step 1
Front-facingFollow these steps to install a front-facing child
restraint using the vehicle seat belt in the rear
seat (except for Cargo Van models) or in the
front passenger seat:
1. Adjust the rear seat to the upright andrearmost position.
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. 2. Position the child restraint on the seat.
Always follow the child restraint manufac-
turer’s instructions.
The back of the child restraint should be
secured against the seatback.
If necessary, adjust the head restraint (front
passenger seat only) or remove the head
restraint/headrest to obtain the correct child
restraint fit. (See “HEAD RESTRAINTS”
earlier in this section and “ADJUSTABLE
HEADRESTS” earlier in this section.)
If the head restraint/headrest is removed,
store it in a secure place. Be sure to reinstall
the head restraint/headrest when the child
restraint is removed.
If the seating position does not have a
removable head restraint/headrest and it is
interfering with the proper child restraint fit,
try another seating position or a different
child restraint.

secure the tether strap to the tether anchor
point. (See “TOP TETHER STRAP CHILD
RESTRAINT” earlier in this section.) Do not
install child restraints that require the use of
a top tether strap to seating positions that
do not have a top tether anchor.

by trying to pull more seat belt out of the
retractor. If you cannot pull any more belt
webbing out of the retractor, the retractor is

PRECAUTIONS ON BOOSTER SEATS
WARNING
. Infants and small children should
always be placed in an appropriate
child restraint while riding in the
vehicle. Failure to use a child re-
straint or booster seat can result in
serious injury or death.
. 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 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.
. NISSAN recommends that the boos-
ter seat be installed in the rear seat.
According to accident statistics,
children are safer when properly
restrained in the rear seat than in
the front seat. If you must install a
booster seat in the front seat, see
“BOOSTER SEAT INSTALLATION ON
FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AND
REAR SEAT” later in this section.
. A booster seat must only be in-
stalled 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
injury in sudden stop or collision.
. Improper use or improper installa-
tion of a booster seat can increase
the risk or severity of injury for both
the child and other occupants of the
vehicle and can lead to serious
injury or death in an accident.
. Do not use towels, books, pillows or
other items in place of a boosterBOOSTER SEATS
