2017 NISSAN QUEST ECU

1-28Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
in the front seat. If you must
install a forward-facing child
restraint in the front seat, see
“Forward-facing child restraint
installation using LATCH” (P.1-
37) .
— 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
front passenger seat.
— Keep seatbacks as upright as possible after fitting the child
restraint.
— Infants and children should al- ways be placed in an appropri-
ate child restraint while in the
vehicle.
. When the child restraint is not in
use, keep it secured with the LATCH
system or a seat belt. In a sudden
stop or collision, loose objects can
injure occupants or damage the
vehicle.
CAUTION
A child restraint in a closed vehicle can
become very hot. Check the seating
surface and buckles before placing a
child in the child restraint.
This vehicle is equipped with a universal child
restraint anchor system, referred to as the
LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHil- dren) system. Some child restraints include rigid
or webbing-mounted attachments that can be
connected to these anchors.
For details, see “Lower Anchors and Tethers for
CHildren System (LATCH)” (P.1-29) .
If you do not have a LATCH compatible child
restraint, the vehicle seat belts can be used.
Several manufacturers offer child restraints for
infants and small children of various sizes. When
selecting any child restraint, keep the following
points in mind:
.
Choose only a restraint with a label certifying
that it complies with Federal Motor Vehicle
Safety Standard 213 or Canadian Motor
Vehicle Safety Standard 213.
. Check the child restraint in your vehicle to
be sure it is compatible with the vehicle’s
seat and seat belt system.
. If the child restraint is compatible with your
vehicle, place your child in the child restraint
and check the various adjustments to be
sure the child restraint is compatible with
your child. Choose a child restraint that is
designed for your child’s height and weight.
Always follow all recommended procedures.
. If the combined weight of the child and child
restraint is less than 65 lbs (29.5 kg) , you
may use either the LATCH anchors or the
seat belt to install the child restraint (not

both at the same time) .
. If the combined weight of the child and child
restraint is greater than 65 lbs (29.5 kg) , use
the vehicle’s seat belt (not the lower
anchors) to install the child restraint.
. Be sure to follow the child restraint manu-
facturer’s instructions for installation.
All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or
territories require that infants and small
children be restrained in an approved child
restraint at all times while the vehicle is
being operated. Canadian law requires the
top tether strap on forward-facing child
restraints be secured to the designated
anchor point on the vehicle.

Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren
System (LATCH)
Your vehicle is equipped with special anchor
points that are used with LATCH (Lower
Anchors and Tethers for CHildren) system
compatible child restraints. This system may
also be referred to as the ISOFIX or ISOFIX
compatible system. With this system, you do not
have to use a vehicle seat belt to secure the
child restraint unless the combined weight of the
child and child restraint exceeds 65 lbs (29.5
kg) . If the combined weight of the child and child
restraint is greater than 65 lbs (29.5 kg) , use the
vehicle’s seat belt (not the lower anchors) to
install the child restraint. Be sure to follow the child restraint manufacturer’s instructions for
installation.
The LATCH anchor points are provided to install
child restraints in the following positions only:
.
2nd row seats
. 3rd row seat (for the right outboard seat
only)
LATCH lower anchor
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.
. Do not secure a child restraint in the
center rear seating position using
the LATCH lower anchors. The child
restraint will not be secured prop-
erly.
. Inspect the lower anchors by insert-
ing your fingers into the lower

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.

seating positions in your vehicle. With this
system, you do not have to use a vehicle seat
belt to secure the child restraint. Check your
child restraint for a label stating that it is
compatible with LATCH. This information may
also be in the instructions provided by the child
restraint manufacturer.

TOP TETHER STRAP CHILD RE-
STRAINT
If the manufacturer of your child restraint
requires the use of a top tether strap, it must
be secured to an anchor point.
WARNING
.In the 3rd row seat, a child restraint
with a top tether strap can only be
used in the center and right out-
board seating position. Do not place
a child restraint with a tether strap
in the center and left outboard
seating position and attempt to
angle the tether strap to the right
outboard position.
. Child restraint anchorages are de-
signed to withstand only those
loads imposed by correctly fitted
child restraints. Under no circum-
stances 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 re-
straint will not be properly installed
using the damaged anchorage, and
a child could be seriously injured or killed in a collision.
. Do not allow cargo to contact the
top tether strap when it is attached
to the top tether anchor. Properly
secure the cargo so it does not
contact the top tether strap. Cargo
that is not properly secured or cargo
that contacts the top tether strap
may damage the top tether strap
during a collision. Your child could
be seriously injured or killed in a
collision if the child restraint top
tether strap is damaged.
Top tether anchor point locations
Anchor points are located in the following
locations:
.2nd row seats on the back side of the
seatback as shown.
. 3rd row seat on the back side of the
seatback as shown.
If you have any questions when installing a
top tether strap child restraint on the rear
seat, it is recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.

Do not use the lower anchors if the combined
weight of the child and the child restraint
exceeds 65 lbs (29.5 kg) . If the combined
weight of the child and the child restraint is
greater than 65 lbs (29.5 kg) , use the vehicle’s
seat belt (not the lower anchors) to install the
child restraint. Be sure to follow the child
restraint manufacturer’s instructions for installa-
tion.
Follow these steps to install a rear-facing child
restraint in the 2nd row seats and 3rd row seat
using the LATCH system:

attachment as necessary, or put the restraint
in another seat and test it again. You may
need to try a different child restraint or try
installing by using the vehicle seat belt (if
applicable) . Not all child restraints fit in all
types of vehicles. 5. Check to make sure the child restraint is
properly secured prior to each use. If the
child restraint is loose, repeat steps 1
through 4.
REAR-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT IN-
STALLATION USING THE SEAT BELTS
WARNING
.The three-point seat belt with Auto-
matic Locking Retractor (ALR) must
be used when installing a child
restraint. Failure to use the ALR
mode will result in the child re-
straint not being properly secured.
The restraint could tip over or be
loose and cause injury to a child in a
sudden stop or collision. Also, it can
change the operation of the front
passenger air bag. See “Front pas-
senger air bag and status light ”(P.1-
55) .
. When installing a child restraint
system in the 3rd row center posi-
tion, both the center seat belt con-
nector tongue and buckle tongue
must be secured. See “3rd row
