Activating the front passenger air bag
You should reactivate the front passenger air bag
system as soon as the child restraint is not in use on
the front passenger seat to ensure protection of the
front passenger seat occupant in the event of an
impact.
To reactivate the front passenger air bag system:
1. With the ignition switch in the LOCK position and the engine off, open the front passenger
door.
2. Insert the ignition key/emergency key (Intelligent Key equipped models) in the front passenger air
bag switch and turn the key to the ON position.
3. Turn the ignition switch to the ON position and make sure the front passenger air bag indicator
light
illuminates for a few seconds and then
turns off.
WARNING
If any of the following conditions occur after the
ignition switch has been turned to the ON posi-
tion, the front passenger air bag system needs
servicing and your vehicle must be taken to the
nearest NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
The front passenger air bag indicator light
comes on and remains illuminated after ap-
proximately 7 seconds while the front pas-
senger air bag switch is ON.
The front passenger air bag indicator light
does not come on at all while the front pas-
senger air bag switch is ON.
Unless checked and repaired, the front passenger
air bag system may not function properly.
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.

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.
