tails.
CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION
USING LATCH
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)” earlier in this section. If a
child restraint is not secured prop-
erly, 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 harnesses.
. Inspect the lower anchors by insert-
ing your fingers into the lower
anchor area and feeling to make
sure there are no obstructions over
the LATCH anchors, such as seat
belt webbing or seat cushion mate-
rial. The child restraint will not be
secured properly if the LATCH an-
chors are obstructed.
Front-facingFollow these steps to install a front-facing child
restraint using LATCH system:
1. Position the child restraint on the seat.
Always follow the child restraint manufac-
turer’s instructions.

Front-facing (webbing-mounted) — step 2
2. Secure the child restraint anchor attach-ments to the LATCH lower anchors. Check
to make sure the LATCH attachment is
properly attached to the lower anchors.
3. The back of the child restraint should be secured against the vehicle seatback. If the
seating position does not have an adjustable
head restraint and it is interfering with the
proper child restraint fit, try another seating
position or a different child restraint.

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.
5. 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
RESTRAINT” earlier in this section.)

6. 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.

CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION
USING THE SEAT BELTS
WARNING
.Even with the NISSAN Advanced Air
Bag System, never install a rear-
facing child restraint in the front
passenger seat. Front air bags in-
flate with great force. A rear-facing
child restraint could be struck by the
front air bag in a crash and could
seriously injure or kill your child.
. NISSAN recommends that child re-
straints be installed in the rear seat. However, if you must install a front-
facing child restraint in the front
passenger seat, move the passen-
ger 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” later in this section
for details.
. The three-point seat belt in your
vehicle is equipped with an Auto-
matic Locking Retractor (ALR) which
must be used when installing a child
restraint.
. Failure to use the ALR mode will
result in the child restraint not being
properly secured. The restraint
could tip over or otherwise be un-
secured and cause injury to the child
in a sudden stop or collision.
. When using the rear center seat belt
to install a child restraint, make sure
the connector tongue and the seat
belt tongue are secured. Do not use
the seat belt with only the seat belt
tongue attached. This could result in
serious personal injury in case of an
accident or sudden stop. .
A child restraint with a top tether
strap should not be used in the front
passenger seat.
The instructions in this section apply to child
restraint installation using the vehicle seat belts
in the rear seat or the front passenger seat.1-30

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 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.
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 or remove the head
restraint (front passenger seat only) to
obtain the correct child restraint fit. (See
“HEAD RESTRAINTS” earlier in this sec-
tion.)
If the head restraint is removed, store it in a
secure place. Be sure to reinstall the head
restraint when the child restraint is removed.
If the seating position does not have an
adjustable head restraint and it is interfering
with the proper child restraint fit, try another
seating position or a different child restraint.

Front-facing — step 3
3. Route the seat belt tongue through the child
restraint and insert it into the buckle until you
hear and feel the latch engage. Be sure to
follow the child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions for belt routing.

4. Pull the shoulder belt until the belt is fullyextended. At this time, the seat belt retractor
is in the Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR)
mode (child restraint mode) . It reverts to the
Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) mode
when the seat belt is fully retracted.

Front-facing — step 6
6. Remove any additional slack from the seatbelt; press downward and rearward firmly in
the center of the child restraint with your
knee to compress the vehicle seat cushion
and seatback while pulling up on the seat
belt.
7. 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 (rear seat installation only) . (See “TOP
TETHER STRAP CHILD RESTRAINT” ear-
lier 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.

8. After attaching the child restraint, test itbefore you place the child in it. Push it from
side to side while holding the seat by the
seat belt 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 belt holds the restraint in place. If the
restraint is not secure, tighten the belt 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. 9. Check that the retractor is in the ALR mode
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
in the ALR mode.
10. Check to make sure the child restraint is properly secured prior to each use. If the
seat belt is not locked, repeat steps 3
through 9.

Front-facing — step 11
11. If the child restraint is installed in the frontpassenger seat, turn the ignition switch to
the ON position. The front passenger air bag
status light
should illuminate. If this
light is not illuminated, see “Front passenger
air bag and status light” later in this section.
Move the child restraint to another
seating position . Have the system
checked by a NISSAN dealer.
After the child restraint is removed and the seat
belt is fully retracted, the ALR mode (child
restraint mode) is canceled.
