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.
PRECAUTIONS ON SUPPLEMENTAL
RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS)
This Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) section
contains important information concerning the driv-
er’s and passenger’s supplemental front impact air
bags, front seat-mounted side-impact supplemental
air bags, roof-mounted curtain side-impact air bags,
and pre-tensioner seat belts.
Supplemental front-impact air bag
system
This system can help cushion the impact force to
the head and chest area of the driver and/or front
passenger in certain frontal collisions. The supple-
mental front-impact air bag is designed to inflate on
the front where the vehicle is impacted.
Front seat-mounted side-impact
supplemental air bag system
(where fitted)
This system can help cushion the impact force to
the chest and pelvis areas of the driver and front
passenger in certain side-impact collisions. The front
seat-mounted side-impact supplemental air bag is
designed to inflate on the side where the vehicle is
impacted.

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT
SYSTEM (SRS)
Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-29

Roof-mounted curtain side-impact
supplemental air bag system
(where fitted)
This system can help cushion the impact force to
the head of the driver and passengers in front and
rear outer seating positions in certain side-impact
collisions. The roof-mounted curtain side-impact
supplemental air bag is designed to inflate on the
side where the vehicle is impacted.
The SRS is designed tosupplementthe crash pro-
tection provided by the driver and front passenger
seat belts and isnot designed to substitutethem.
Seat belts should always be correctly worn and the
driver and front passenger seated a suitable dis-
tance away from the steering wheel, instrument
panel and front door finishers. For additional infor-
mation, see “Seat belts” earlier in this section.
After placing the ignition switch in the ON or
START position, the air bag warning light will illu-
minate. The air bag warning light will turn off
after approximately 7 seconds if the system is
operational. See “Warning/indicator lights and
audible reminders” in the “2. Instruments and
controls” sectionfor further details.
The air bag will operate only when the ignition
switch is in the ON or START position.Driver and front passenger air bags:
WARNING
•The supplemental front-impact air bags ordi-
narily will not inflate in the event of a side
impact, rear impact, rollover, or lower sever-
ity frontal collision. Always wear the seat belts
to help reduce the risk or severity of injury in
accidents.
•The seat belts and the supplemental front-im-
pact air bags are most effective when you are
sitting well back and upright in the seat. The
front-impact air bags inflate with great force.
If you are unrestrained, leaning forward, sit-
ting sideways, or out of position in any way,
you are at greater risk of injury or death in an
accident. You may also receive serious or fa-
tal injuries from the supplemental front-im-
pact air bag if you are up against it when itinflates. Always sit back against the seatback
and as far away as practical from the steering
wheel. Always use the seat belts.
WARNING
•Never install a child restraint system in the
front seat. An inflating supplemental front-im-
pact air bag could seriously injure or kill your
child (see “Air bag warning labels” later in this
section).
•Children may be severely injured or killed
when the air bags inflate if they are not prop-
erly restrained see “Child restraints” earlier in
this section.
•Never let children ride unrestrained or extend
their hands or face out of the window. Do not
attempt to hold them in your lap or arms.

Side and curtain air bags (where fitted):
WARNING
•The front seat-mounted side-impact supple-
mental air bags and roof-mounted curtain
side-impact supplemental air bags ordinarily
will not inflate in the event of a front impact,
rear impact, rollover, or lower severity side
collision. Always wear the seat belts to help
reduce the risk or severity of injury in acci-
dents.
•The seat belts, the front seat-mounted side-
impact supplemental air bags and roof-
mounted curtain side-impact supplemental
air bags are most effective when you are sit-
ting well back and upright in the seat. The
front seat-mounted side-impact supplemen-
tal air bags and roof-mounted curtain side-im-
pact supplemental air bags inflate with great
force. If you and your passengers are unre-
strained, leaning forward, sitting sideways, or
out of position in any way, you and your pas-
sengers are at greater risk of injury or death in
an accident.
•Do not allow anyone to place their hands, legs,
or face near the front seat-mounted side-im-
pact supplemental air bags and roof-mounted
curtain side-impact supplemental air bags on
the sides of the seatback of the front seats or
near the side roof rails. Do not allow anyone
sitting in the front seats or rear outer seats to
extend their hands out of the windows or lean
against the doors.
•When sitting in the rear seats, do not hold
onto the seatback of the front seats. If the
front seat-mounted side impact supplemental
air bags and roof-mounted curtain side-im-
pact supplemental air bags inflate, you may
be seriously injured. Be especially careful with
children, who should always be properly re-
strained.
•Do not use seat covers on the front seatbacks.
They may interfere with the front seat-
mounted side-impact supplemental air bag in-
flations.
NOTE
For an overview see “Seat belts and supplemen-
tal restraint system” in the “0. Illustrated table of
contents” section.
Pre-tensioner seat belt system
The pre-tensioner seat belt system may activate with
the supplemental air bag system in certain types of
collisions.
Working with the seat belt retractor and anchor, it
helps tighten the seat belt the instant the vehicle
becomes involved in certain types of collisions, help-
ing to restrain front seat occupants. See “Pre-ten-
sioner seat belt system” earlier in this section.

NPA1155
Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-31

The BACK SEAT is the SAFEST place for children
aged 12 and under. Always use seat belts and
child restraints. For maximum safety protection
in all types of crashes, you must always wear
your safety belt. Do not sit or lean unnecessarily
close to the airbag. Do not place any objects over
the airbag or between the airbag and yourself. If
the airbag warning light stays on or is flashing
when the ignition switch is placed in the ON posi-
tion, go to a NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop. Airbags can only be removed or disposed
of by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
Be sure to read the “AIRBAG LABEL” description
at the end of this manual.
In vehicles equipped with a front-impact passenger
air bag system, use a rear-facing child restraint sys-
tem only on the rear seats.
When installing a child restraint system in your ve-
hicle, always follow the child restraint system manu-
facturer’s instructions for installation. For informa-
tion, see “Child restraints” earlier in this section.SRS air bag warning light
The SRS air bag warning light, displayingin
the instrument panel, monitors the circuits of the
supplemental front-impact air bag, front seat-
mounted side-impact supplemental air bag (where
fitted), supplemental curtain side-impact air bags
(where fitted), and pre-tensioner seat belt systems.
The circuits monitored by the SRS air bag warning
light are the diagnosis sensor unit, crash zone sen-
sor, satellite sensors, front impact air bag modules,
front seat-mounted side-impact supplemental air
bag modules (where fitted), roof-mounted curtain
side-impact supplemental air bag modules (where
fitted), pre-tensioner seat belt systems, and all re-
lated wiring.
After placing the ignition switch in the ON or
START position, the supplemental air bag warn-
ing light illuminates. The air bag warning light will
turn off after approximately 7 seconds if the sys-
tem is operational.Have the air bag systems and/or pre-tensioner seat
belt systems serviced at the nearest NISSAN dealer
or qualified workshop if any of the following condi-
tions occur:
•The SRS air bag warning light remains on after
approximately 7 seconds.
•The SRS air bag warning light flashes intermit-
tently.
•The SRS air bag warning light does not illumi-
nate at all.
Under these conditions, the air bag systems and/or
pre-tensioner seat belt systems may not operate
properly. They must be checked and repaired. Con-
tact a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop imme-
diately.

WARNING
•Do not place any objects on the steering wheel
pad. Do not place any objects between the
driver and steering wheel pad. Such objects
may become dangerous projectiles and cause
injury if a supplemental air bag inflates.
•Immediately after inflation, several supple-
mental air bag system components will be hot.
Do not touch them: you may severely burn
yourself.
•No unauthorised changes should be made to
any components or wiring of the supplemen-
tal air bag systems. This is to prevent acci-
dental inflation of the supplemental air bags
or damage to the supplemental air bag sys-
tems.
•Do not make unauthorised changes to your
vehicle’s electrical system, suspension sys-
tem or front end structure. This could affect
proper operation of the supplemental air bag
systems.
•Tampering with the supplemental air bag sys-
tems may result in serious personal injury.
Tampering includes changes to the steering
wheel by placing materials over the steering
wheel pad and above, and by installing addi-
tional trim materials around the supplemental
air bag systems.NIC2170
Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-33

To turn on the front passenger air bag:
1. Place the ignition switch in the “OFF” position.
2. Open the glove box and insert the key into the
front passenger air bag switch.
3. Push and turn the key to the ON position.
4. Place the ignition switch in the ON position. The
front passenger air bag status ON light
will
illuminate, and after a period of time, will then
turn off.
Supplemental side–impact air bag
system
The supplemental side air bags are located in the
outside of the seatback of the front seats.
The supplemental side-impact air bag system is de-
signed to inflate in higher severity side collisions,
although it may inflate if the forces in another type of
collision are similar to those of a higher severity side
impact. It may not inflate in certain side collisions.
Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an indi-
cation of proper supplemental side-impact air bag
system operation.
The seat belts should be correctly worn and the
driver and passenger seated upright, and as far as
is practical, away from the side air bag. The side air
bags inflate quickly in order to help protect the front
occupants. Because of this, the force of the side air
bags inflating can increase the risk of injury if theoccupant is too close to, or is against, these air bag
modules during inflation. The side air bag will de-
flate quickly after the collision is over.
Supplemental side–impact curtain air
bag system (where fitted)
The supplemental side–impact curtain air bag is lo-
cated in the roof side trims.
The supplemental side–impact curtain air bag sys-
tem is designed to inflate in higher severity side col-
lisions, although it may inflate if the forces in another
type of collision are similar to those of a higher se-
verity side impact. It may not inflate in certain side
collisions. Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not al-
ways an indication of proper supplemental curtain
side–impact air bag system operation.
The seat belts should be correctly worn and the rear
seat passengers should be seated as far away as
practical from the door finishers and side roof rails.
The curtain air bags inflate quickly in order to help
protect the front and rear occupants. Because of
this, the force of the curtain air bag inflating can
increase the risk of injury if the occupant is too close
to, or is against, these air bag modules during infla-
tion. The curtain air bag will deflate quickly after the
collision is over.
WARNING
•Directly after inflation, several air bag system
components will be hot. Do not touch them;
you may severely burn yourself.
