2015 NISSAN LEAF remove seats

After the child restraint is removed and the seat
belt is fully retracted, the ALR mode (child re-
straint mode) is canceled.INSTALLING TOP TETHER STRAP
WARNING
• 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 in-
stalled using the damaged anchorage,
and a child could be seriously injured
or killed in a collision. • Do not allow anything to come in con-
tact with the strap, when the top tether
strap is in use. Doing so may result in
the strap being damaged in a collision.
Your child could be seriously injured or
killed in a collision if the child restraint
top tether strap is damaged.
First, secure the child restraint with the LATCH
lower anchors (rear outboard seat positions only)
or the seat belt, as applicable.
1. Flip up the anchor cover from the anchor point which is located on the back side of the
seatbacks.
2. If necessary, raise or remove the head restraint/headrest to position the top tether
strap over the top of the seatback. If the head
restraint/headrest is removed, store it in a
secure place. Be sure to reinstall the head
restraint/headrest when the child restraint is
removed.
See “Remove”, “Install”, or “Adjust” under
“Head restraints/headrests” for head restraint/
headrest adjustment, removal and installation
information.
Position the top tether strap over the top of the
seatback.

BOOSTER SEAT INSTALLATION
CAUTION
Do not use the lap/shoulder belt Auto-
matic Locking Retractor (ALR) mode
when using a booster seat with the seat
belts.
Refer to all Warnings and Cautions in “Child
safety”, “Child restraints” and “Booster seats” in
this section before installing a child restraint.
Follow these steps to install a booster seat on the
rear seat or on the front passenger seat:
1.If you must install a booster seat in the
front seat, move the seat to the rearmost
position.
2. Position the booster seat on the seat. Only place it in the forward-facing direction. Al-
ways follow the booster seat manufacturer’s
instructions.
3. The booster seat should be positioned on the vehicle seat so that it is stable. If necessary, adjust or remove the head
restraint/headrest to obtain the correct
booster seat fit. If the head restraint/headrest
is removed, store it in a secure place.
Be sure
to reinstall the head restraint/headrest
when the booster seat is removed. See
“Remove”, “Install” or “Adjust” under “Head
restraints/headrests” for head restraint/
headrest adjustment, removal and installation
information.

The front seats and the rear outboard seats can
be warmed by built-in heaters. The switches lo-
cated on the center console and at the side of the
front passenger seatback can be operated inde-
pendently of each other.
1. Place the power switch in the ON position.
2. Push the LO or HI position of the switch, asdesired, depending on the temperature. The
indicator light in the switch will illuminate.
3. To turn off the heater, return the switch to the level position. Make sure the indicator light
goes off. The heater is controlled by a thermostat, auto-
matically turning the heater on and off. The indi-
cator light will remain on as long as the switch is
on.
When the vehicle’s interior is warmed, or before
you leave the vehicle, be sure to turn the switch
off.
NOTE:
The heated seats consumes less power
than the heater and can be used to either
help extend vehicle range by reducing
heater use or to maximize comfort by
supplementing the heater.
WARNING
Do not use or allow occupants to use the
seat heater if you or the occupants can-
not monitor elevated seat temperatures
or have an inability to feel pain in those
body parts in contact with the seat. Use of
the seat heater by such people could re-
sult in serious injury.
CAUTION
• Do not use the seat heater for ex- tended periods or when no one is us-
ing the seat.
• Do not put anything on the seat which insulates heat, such as a blanket,
cushion, seat cover, etc. Otherwise, the
seat may become overheated.
• Do not place anything hard or heavy on the seat or pierce it with a pin or similar
object. This may result in damage to
the heater.
• Any liquid spilled on the heated seat should be removed immediately with a
dry cloth.
• When cleaning the seat, never use gasoline, thinner, or any similar mate-
rials.
• If any abnormalities are found or the heated seat does not operate, turn the
switch off and have the system
checked by a NISSAN certified LEAF
dealer.

CHROME PARTS
Clean chrome parts regularly with a non- abrasive
chrome polish to maintain the finish.
TIRE DRESSING
NISSAN does not recommend the use of tire
dressings. Tire manufacturers apply a coating to
the tires to help reduce discoloration of the rub-
ber. If a tire dressing is applied to the tires, it may
react with the coating and form a compound. This
compound may come off the tire while driving and
stain the vehicle paint.
If you choose to use a tire dressing, take the
following precautions:
• Use a water-based tire dressing. The coating onthe tire dissolves more easily with an oil-based
tire dressing.
• Apply a light coat of tire dressing to help prevent it from entering the tire tread/grooves (where it
would be difficult to remove) .
• Wipe off excess tire dressing using a dry towel. Make sure the tire dressing is completely re-
moved from the tire tread/grooves.
• Allow the tire dressing to dry as recommended by the tire dressing manufacturer. Occasionally remove loose dust from the interior
trim, plastic parts and seats using a vacuum
cleaner or soft bristled brush. Wipe the vinyl and
leather surfaces with a clean, soft cloth damp-
ened in mild soap solution, then wipe clean with a
dry soft cloth.
Regular care and cleaning is required in order to
maintain the appearance of the leather.
Before using any fabric protector, read the manu-
facturer’s recommendations. Some fabric pro-
tectors contain chemicals that may stain or
bleach the seat material.
Use a cloth dampened only with water to clean
the meter and gauge lens.
WARNING
Do not use water or acidic cleaners (hot
steam cleaners) on the seat. This can
damage the seat or occupant classifica-
tion sensor. This can also affect the op-
eration of the air bag system and result in
serious personal injury.
CAUTION
• Never use benzine, thinner, or any similar material. • Small dirt particles can be abrasive
and damaging to the leather surfaces
and should be removed promptly. Do
not use saddle soap, car waxes, pol-
ishes, oils, cleaning fluids, solvents,
detergents or ammonia-based clean-
ers as they may damage the leather’s
natural finish.
• Never use fabric protectors unless rec- ommended by the manufacturer.
• Do not use glass or plastic cleaner on meter or gauge lens covers. It may
damage the lens cover.
AIR FRESHENERS
Most air fresheners use a solvent that could affect
the vehicle interior. If you use an air freshener,
take the following precautions:
• Hanging-type air fresheners can cause perma-
nent discoloration when they contact vehicle
interior surfaces. Place the air freshener in a
location that allows it to hang free and not
contact an interior surface.
• Liquid-type air fresheners typically clip on the vents. These products can cause immediate
damage and discoloration when spilled on inte-
rior surfaces.
