PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT
USAGE
Your chances of being injured in an accident and/or
the severity of injury may be greatly reduced if you
are wearing your seat belt and it is properly ad-
justed. NISSAN strongly encourages you and all of
your passengers to buckle up every time you drive,
even if your seating position is equipped with an air
bag.
WARNING
Be sure to observe the following warnings when
using seat belts. Failure to do so could increase
the chance and/or severity of injury in an acci-
dent.
•Seat belts are designed to bear upon the bony
structure of the body, and should be worn low
across the front of the pelvis or the pelvis,
chest and shoulders, as applicable; wearing
the lap section of the belt across the abdomi-
nal area must be avoided. Serious injury can
occur if the seat belt is not worn properly.
•No modifications or additions should be made
by the user which will either prevent the seat
belt adjusting devices from operating to re-
move slack, or prevent the seat belt assembly
from being adjusted to remove slack.
•Seat belts should be adjusted as firmly as
possible, consistent with comfort to provide
the protection for which they have been de-
signed. A slack belt will greatly reduce the
protection afforded to the wearer.
•Care should be taken to avoid contamination
of the webbing with polishes, oils and chemi-
cals, and particularly battery acid. Cleaning
may safely be carried out using mild soap and
water. The belt should be replaced if webbing
becomes frayed, contaminated or damaged.
•It is essential to replace the entire assembly
after it has been worn in a severe impact even
if damage to the assembly is not obvious.
•Belts should not be worn with straps twisted.
•Each seat belt assembly must only be used by
one occupant; it is dangerous to put a belt
around a child being carried on the occupant’s
lap.
•Every occupant in this vehicle should wear a
seat belt at all times.
•Your vehicle has seating positions and seat
belts for five (5) occupants; two (2) in the front
seats and three (3) in the rear. Never carry
more people in the vehicle than there are seat
belts.
•All seat belt assemblies, including retractors
and attaching hardware, should be inspected
by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop af-
ter any collision. NISSAN recommends that
all seat belt assemblies in use during a colli-sion should be replaced unless the collision
was minor and the belts show no damage and
continue to operate properly. Seat belt assem-
blies not in use during a collision should also
be inspected and replaced if either damage
or improper operation is noted.
•Once the pre-tensioner seat belt has been ac-
tivated, it cannot be re-used. It must be re-
placed together with the retractor. See a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
•Removal and installation of the pre-tensioner
seat belt system components should be done
by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop
ONLY.
•If the seat belt warning light glows continu-
ously while the ignition switch is in the ON
position, all doors are closed and seat belts
is/are fastened, it may indicate a malfunction
in the system. Have the system checked by a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
•Always route the shoulder belt over your
shoulder and across your chest. Never run
the belt under your arm. Serious injury can
occur if the seat belt is not worn properly.
•Position the lap belt as low as possible
AROUND THE HIPS, NOT THE WAIST.

Child restraint on front passenger seat
(front passenger air bag equipped
models)
Vehicles equipped with a front passenger air bag,
will have an air bag warning label attached to the
passenger’s side of the instrument panel as (previ-
ously) illustrated.
This label mentions:
“Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearward facing
child restraint on a seat protected by an airbag in
front of it!”
This label warns you not to fit a rear facing child
restraint on the front passenger seat without first
deactivating the front passenger air bag.
NISSAN recommends that infants or small children
be seated in a child restraint system on the rear seat
if available. According to accident statistics, chil-
dren are safer when properly restrained in the rear
seat than in the front seat.
When installing child restraints in your vehicle, al-
ways carefully observe the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions. For more details on the installation of child
restraints, see “Child restraints” later in this section.
Children on front passenger seat (side
air bag equipped models)
Vehicles equipped with side air bags, will have a
side air bag warning label attached to the vehicle’s
interior as shown in the (previous) illustration.
This label warns you not to let infants or small chil-
dren sit on the front passenger’s seat as the air bag
may cause serious injury in case of deployment dur-
ing a collision.
NISSAN recommends that infants or small children
be seated in a child restraint system on the rear seat
if available. According to accident statistics, chil-
dren are safer when properly restrained in the rear
seat than in the front seat.
AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT
The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) air bag
warning light, displayingin the instrument
panel, monitors the circuits of the front air bag sys-
tem, side and curtain air bag systems (where fitted)
and pre-tensioner seat belt system. The circuits

monitored by the SRS air bag warning light are: all
sensors, air bag modules and all related wiring, and
the pre-tensioner seat belt.
After turning the ignition switch to the ON or
START position, the supplemental air bag warn-
ing light illuminates. The air bag warning light will
turn off after approximately 7 seconds if the sys-
tem is operational.
If any of the following conditions occurs, the front air
bag, side and curtain air bag systems (where fitted)
and pre-tensioner seat belt need servicing and
should be taken to the nearest NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop:
•The SRS air bag warning light remains on after
approximately 7 seconds.
•The SRS air bag warning light flashes intermit-
tently.
•The SRS air bag warning light does not come on
at all.
Under these conditions, the front air bags, side and
curtain air bags (where fitted) and/or pre-tensioner
seat belt will not operate properly. They must be
checked and repaired.
Repair and replacement procedure
The front air bags, side air bags (where fitted), cur-
tain air bags (where fitted) and pre-tensioner seat
belt are designed to activate on a one-time-only ba-
sis. As a reminder, unless it is damaged, the air bag
warning light will remain illuminated after inflationhas occurred. Repair and replacement of the air bag
system should be done only by a NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop.
When maintenance work is required on the vehicle,
the air bag systems, related parts and pre-tensioner
seat belt should be pointed out to the person con-
ducting the maintenance. The ignition switch should
always be in the LOCK position when working un-
der the bonnet or inside the vehicle.
WARNING
•Once the air bag has inflated or the pre-ten-
sioner seat belt has been activated, the air
bag module and pre-tensioner seat belt will
not function again and must be replaced. The
air bag module should be replaced by a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop. The air
bag module cannot be repaired.
•All air bag systems should be inspected by a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop if there
is any damage to the front end portion of the
vehicle.
•When selling your vehicle, we request that you
inform the buyer about the air bag system and
guide the buyer to the appropriate sections in
this Owner’s Manual.
•If you need to dispose of an air bag or scrap
the vehicle, contact a NISSAN dealer or quali-
fied workshop. Correct air bag disposal pro-
cedures are set forth in the appropriate
NISSAN Service Manual. Incorrect disposal
procedures could cause personal injury.Note that the above illustration is for LHD models.

INSTALLATION OF A CHILD
RESTRAINT SYSTEM ON THE FRONT
PASSENGER SEAT
WARNING
•Never install a rear facing child restraint sys-
tem in the front seat without first deactivating
the front passenger air bag. Inflating supple-
mental front-impact air bags inflate with greatforce. A child restraint system could be struck
by the supplemental front-impact air bags in
an accident and could seriously injure or kill
your child.
•NISSAN recommends that infants or small
children be seated in a child restraint system
in the rear seat. According to accident statis-
tics, children are safer when properly
restrained in the rear seat than in the front
seat.
Rear facing
If you install a child restraint system in the front seat,
follow these steps:
1. Deactivate the front passenger air bag. See
“Supplemental Restraint System (air bag
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 situation, 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’s 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, it will be neces-
sary to secure the shoulder belt in place with a
locking clip
jA . Use a locking clip attached to
the child restraint system, or one which is equiva-
lent in dimensions and strength.
Be sure to follow the child restraint system
manufacturer’s instructions for belt routing.
6. Slide the seat forward 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. Tilt it from side to side. Try to tug it
forward and check if it is held securely in place.

tance can be set up to 63,000 km (31,500 miles)
after which the display returns to zero.
If no further action is made, the display returns to oil
level status mode and the new interval is set.
If the interval distance is set to 0, the display will
skip the distance to oil change information and
wrench symbol display mode and will directly dis-
