WARNING
.Every person who drives or rides in
this vehicle should use a seat belt at
all times.
. The seat belt should be properly
adjusted to a snug fit. Failure to do
so may reduce the effectiveness of
the entire restraint system and in-
crease the chance or severity of
injury in an accident. Serious injury
or death can occur if the seat belt is
not worn properly.
. Always route the shoulder belt over
your shoulder and across your
chest. Never put the belt behind
your back, under your arm or across
your neck. The belt should be away
from your face and neck, but not
falling off your shoulder.
. Position the lap belt as low and
snug as possible AROUND THE
HIPS, NOT THE WAIST. A lap belt
worn too high could increase the
risk of internal injuries in an acci-
dent.
. Be sure the seat belt tongue is
securely fastened to the proper buckle.
. Do not wear the seat belt inside out
or twisted. Doing so may reduce its
effectiveness.
. Do not allow more than one person
to use the same seat belt.
. Never carry more people in the
vehicle than there are seat belts.
. If the seat belt warning light glows
continuously while the ignition is
turned ON with all doors closed and
all seat belts fastened, it may in-
dicate a malfunction in the system.
Have the system checked by a
NISSAN dealer.
. No changes should be made to the
seat belt system. For example, do
not modify the seat belt, add mate-
rial or install devices that may
change the seat belt routing or
tension. Doing so may affect the
operation of the seat belt system.
Modifying or tampering with the
seat belt system may result in
serious personal injury.
. Once a seat belt pretensioner has
activated, it cannot be reused and
must be replaced together with the

passenger air bag. See “Front passen-
ger air bag and status light” (P.1-35) .
SSS0640Front-facing (front passenger seat) — step 1
Refer to all Warnings and Cautions in the “Child
safety” and “Child restraints” sections before
installing a child restraint.
Follow these steps to install a front-facing child
restraint using the vehicle seat belt 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 this vehicle. 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 to obtain the correct child restraint
fit. 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. See “Head restraints” (P.1-5)
for head restraint adjustment, removal and
installation information.
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.

SSS0988Front-facing — step 11
11. If the child restraint is installed in the frontpassenger seat, push 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” (P.1-35). 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.
SSS0929
INSTALLING TOP TETHER STRAP (for
Coupe models)
First, secure the child restraint with the seat belt.
1. Flip down the flap marked with a label as shown in the illustration.
2. Position the top tether strap over the top of the seatback and secure it to the tether
anchor bracket that provides the straightest
installation.
3. Tighten the strap according to the manufac- turer’s instructions to remove any slack.
If you have any questions when installing a
top tether strap child restraint, consult
your NISSAN dealer for details.
BOOSTER SEATS
Precautions on booster seats
WARNING
If a booster seat and seat belt are not
used properly, the risk of a child being
injured in a sudden stop or collision
greatly increases:
. Make sure the shoulder portion of
the belt is away from the child’s face
and neck and the lap portion of the
belt does not cross the stomach.
. Make sure the shoulder belt is not
behind the child or under the child’s
arm.
. A booster seat must only be in-
stalled in a seating position that has
a lap/shoulder belt.
