Before fastening the seat belt, a�fjust the
shoul�fer belt ar�b to the lock position where
the belt fits snugly on the shoul�fer. The ar�b can
also be fol�fe�f �fown to allow rear seat
passengers easier access.
Pulling the ar�b forwar�f will allow an easy access
to the belt.
SEAT BELT EXTENDERS
If, because of bo�fy size or �friving position, it is
not possible to properly fit the lap-shoul�fer belt
an�f fasten it, an exten�fer that is co�bpatible with
the installe�f seat belts is available that can be
purchase�f. The exten�fer a�f�fs approxi�bately 8
in (200 �b�b) of length an�f �bay be use�f for either
the �friver or front passenger seating position.
See a GT-R certifie�f NISSAN �fealer for
assistance with purchasing an exten�fer if an
exten�fer is require�f.
WARNING
. Only NISSAN seat belt extenders,
made by the same company which
made the original equipment seat
belts, should be used with the
NISSAN seat belts.
. Adults and children who can use the
standard seat belt should not use an
extender. Such unnecessary use
could result in serious personal
injury in the event of an accident.
. Never use seat belt extenders to
install child restraints. If the child
restraint is not secured properly, the
child could be seriously injured in a

collision or a sudden stop.
SEAT BELT MAINTENANCE
.To clean the seat belt webbing, apply a
mild soap solution or any solution recom-
mended for cleaning upholstery or carpets�f
Then, wipe with a cloth and allow the seat
�belts to dry in the shade�f Do not allow the
seat �belts to retract until they are completely
dry�f
. If dirt builds up in the shoulder belt
guide of the seat �belt anchors, the seat
�belts may retract slowly�f Wipe the shoulder
�belt guide with a clean, dry cloth�f
. Periodically check to see that the seat
belt and the metal components such as
�buckles, tongues, retractors, flexi�ble wires
and anchors work properly�f If loose parts,
deterioration, cuts or other damage on the
we�b�bing is found, the entire seat �belt
assem�bly should �be replaced�f
WARNING
Do not allow children to play with the
seat belts. Most seating positions are
equipped with Automatic Locking Re-
tractor (ALR) mode seat belts. If the
seat belt becomes wrapped around a
child’s neck with the ALR mode acti-
vated, the child can be seriously injured
or killed if the seat belt retracts and
becomes tight. This can occur even if
the vehicle is parked. Unbuckle the seat
belt to release the child. If the seat belt
can not be unbuckled or is already
unbuckled, release the child by cutting
the seat belt with a suitable tool (such
as a knife or scissors) to release the
seat belt.
Children need adults to help protect them.
They need to be properly restrained.
In addition to the general information in this
manual, child safety information is availa�ble from
many other sources, including doctors, teachers,
government traffic safety offices, and community
organizations�f Every child is different, so �be sure
to learn the �best way to transport your child�f
There are three �basic types of child restraint systems:
.
Rear-facing child restraint
. Forward-facing child restraint
. Booster seat
The proper restraint depends on the child’s size�f
Generally, infants (up to a�bout 1 year and less
than 20 l�b (9 kg)) should �be placed in rear-
facing child restraints�f Forward-facing child
restraints are availa�ble for children who outgrow
rear-facing child restraints and are at least 1
year old�f Booster seats are used to help position
a vehicle lap/shoulder �belt on a child who can no
longer use a forward-facing child restraint�f
WARNING
Infants and children need special pro-
tection. The vehicle’s seat belts may not
fit them properly. The shoulder belt may
come too close to the face or neck. The
lap belt may not fit over their small hip
bones. In an accident, an improperly
fitting seat belt could cause serious or
fatal injury. Always use appropriate
child restraints.
All U�fS�f states and Canadian provinces or
territories require the use of approved child

(�fChild restraints” pa�be 1-15)
A child restraint may be secured in the vehicle
by usin�b either the LATCH (Lower Anchor and
Tethers for CHildren) system or with the vehicle
seat belt. (
�fChild restraints” pa�be 1-15)
NISSAN recommends that all pre-teens
and children be restrained in the rear seat.
According to accident statistics, children
are safer when properly restrained in the
rear seat than in the front seat.
This is especially important because your
vehicle has a supplemental restraint sys-
tem (air bag system) for the front passen-
ger. (
“Supplemental restraint system”
page 1-34)
INFANTS
Infants up to at least one year old should be
placed in a rear-facin�b child restraint. NISSAN
recommends that infants be placed in child
restraints that comply with Federal Motor
Vehicle Safety Standards or Canadian Motor
Vehicle Safety Standards. You should choose a
child restraint which fits your vehicle and always
follow the manufacturer’s instructions for instal-
lation and use.
SMALL CHILDREN
Children that are over 1 year old and wei�bh at
least 20 lb (9 k�b) should remain in a rear-facin�b
child restraint as lon�b as possible up to the
hei�bht or wei�bht limit of the child restraint.
Children who out�brow the hei�bht or wei�bht limit
of the rear-facin�b child restraint and are at least
1 year old should be secured in a forward-facin�b
child restraint with a harness. Refer to the
manufacturer’s instructions for minimum and
maximum wei�bht and hei�bht recommendations.
NISSAN recommends that small children be
placed in child restraints that comply with
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards or
Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. You
should choose a child restraint that fits your
vehicle and always follow the manufacturer’s
instructions for installation and use.
LARGER CHILDREN
Children should remain in a forward-facin�b child
restraint with a harness until they reach the
maximum hei�bht or wei�bht limit allowed by the
child restraint manufacturer.
Once a child out�brows the hei�bht or wei�bht limit
of the harness-equipped forward-facin�b child
restraint, NISSAN recommends that the child be
placed in a commercially available booster seat
to obtain proper seat belt fit. For a seat belt to fit properly, the booster seat should raise the child
so that the shoulder belt is properly positioned
across the chest and the top, middle portion of
the shoulder. The shoulder belt should not cross
the neck or face and should not fall off the
shoulder. The lap belt should lie snu�bly across
the lower hips or upper thi�bhs, not the abdomen.
A booster seat can only be used in seatin�b
positions that have a three-point type seat belt.
The booster seat should fit the vehicle seat and
have a label certifyin�b that it complies with
Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards or
Canadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards.
Once the child has �brown so the shoulder belt
is no lon�ber on or near the face and neck, and
the lap belt can be positioned properly across
the lower hips or upper thi�bhs, use the seat belt
without the booster seat.WARNING
Never let a child stand or kneel on any
seat and do not allow a child in the
cargo areas while the vehicle is moving.
The child could be seriously injured or
killed in an accident or sudden stop.

PRECAUTIONS ON CHILD RE-
STRAINTS
WARNING
.Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use and in-
stallation of child restraints could
result in serious injury or death of a
child or other passengers in a
sudden stop or collision:
— The child restraint must be used
and installed properly. Always
follow all of the child restraint
manufacturer’s instructions for
installation and use.
— Infants and children should never be held on anyone’s lap.
Even the strongest adult cannot
resist the forces of a collision.
— Do not put a seat belt around both a child and another pas-
senger.
— NISSAN recommends that all child restraints be installed in
the rear seat. Studies show that
children are safer when properly
restrained in the rear seat than in the front seat. If you must
install a forward-facing child
restraint in the front seat.
(
“Forward-facing child re-
straint installation using the
seat belts” page 1-27)
— Even with the NISSAN Advanced Air Bag System, never install a
rear-facing child restraint in the
front seat. An inflating air bag
could seriously injure or kill a
child. A rear-facing child re-
straint must only be used in the
rear seat.
— Be sure to purchase a child restraint that will fit the child
and vehicle. Some child re-
straints may not fit properly in
your vehicle.
— Child restraint anchor points are designed to withstand loads
from child restraints that are
properly fitted.
— Never use the anchor points for adult seat belts or harnesses.
— A child restraint with a top tether strap should not be used in the

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use and installa-
tion of child restraints could result in
serious injury or death of a child or
other passengers in a sudden stop or
collision:
.
Attach LATCH system compatible
child restraints only at the locations
shown in the illustration.
. Inspect the lower anchors by insert-
ing your fingers into the lower
anchor area. Feel to make sure
there are no obstructions over the
anchors such as seat belt webbing
or seat cushion material. The child
restraint will not be secured prop-
erly if the lower anchors are ob-
structed.
Child restraint anchorages are de-
signed to withstand only those loads
imposed by correctly fitted child re- straints. Under no circumstances are
they to be used to attach adult seat
belts, or other items or equipment to
the vehicle. Doing so could damage the
child restraint anchorages. The child
restraint will not be properly installed
using the damaged anchorage, and a
child could be seriously injured or killed
in a collision.
