1-8Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
WARNING
.Do not ride in a moving vehicle
when the seatback is reclined.
This can be dangerous. The
shoulder belt will not be against
your body. In an accident, you
could be thrown into it and re-
ceive neck or other serious inju-
ries. You could also slide under
the lap belt and receive serious
internal injuries.
. For the most effective protection
when the vehicle is in motion, the
seat should be upright. Always sit
well back and upright in the seat
with both feet on the floor and
adjust the seat belt properly. See
“Precautions on child restraints”
(P.1-33).
. After adjustment, check to be
sure the seat is securely locked.
SSS1069
Folding:
Pull the strap
and fold the seatback.
Return the seatback until it securely locks
in position.
WARNING
. Never allow anyone to ride in the
cargo area or on the third row
seat when it is in the folddown
position. Use of these areas by
passengers without proper re-
straints could result in serious
injury in an accident or sudden
stop. .
Properly secure all cargo with
ropes or straps to help prevent it
from sliding or shifting. Do not
place cargo higher than the seat-
backs. In a sudden stop or colli-
sion, unsecured cargo could
cause personal injury.
. When returning the seatbacks to
the upright position, be certain
they are completely secured in
the latched position. If they are
not completely secured, passen-
gers may be injured in an acci-
dent or sudden stop.

1-66Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
tions that may be interfering with the
weight sensors:
.Small adult or child is not sitting
upright, leaning against the seatback,
and centered on the seat cushion with
his/her feet comfortably extended to
the floor.
. The child restraint is not properly
installed, as outlined. (See “Child re-
straints” (P.1-32).)
. An object weighing over 9.1 lbs (4 kg)
hanging on the seat or placed in the
seatback pocket.
. A child restraint or other object press-
ing against the rear of the seatback.
. A rear passenger pushing or pulling
on the back of the front passenger
seat.
. Forcing the front seat or seatback
against an object on the seat or floor
behind it.
. An object placed under the front
passenger seat.
. An object placed between the seat
cushion and center console.
If the vehicle is moving, please come to a
stop when it is safe to do so. Check and
correct any of the above conditions.
Restart the vehicle and wait 1 minute. NOTE:
A system check will be performed dur-
ing which the front passenger air bag
status light will remain lit for about 7
seconds initially.
If the light is still OFF after this, the small
adult, child or child restraint should be
repositioned in the rear seat and it is
recommended that the vehicle be
checked by a NISSAN dealer as soon as
possible.
Other supplemental front-impact
air bag precautions
WARNING
.
Do not place any objects on the
steering wheel pad or on the
instrument panel. Also, do not
place any objects between any
occupant and the steering wheel
or instrument panel. Such objects
may become dangerous projec-
tiles and cause injury if the front
air bags inflate.
. Do not place objects with sharp
edges on the seat. Also, do not
place heavy objects on the seat
that will leave permanent impres-
sions in the seat. Such objects
can damage the seat or occupant classification sensors (weight
sensors). This can affect the op-
eration of the air bag system and
result in serious personal injury.
. Do not use water or acidic clea-
ners (hot steam cleaners) on the
seat. This can damage the seat or
occupant classification sensors.
This can also affect the operation
of the air bag system and result in
serious personal injury.
. Immediately after inflation, sev-
eral front air bag system compo-
nents will be hot. Do not touch
them; you may severely burn
yourself.
. No unauthorized changes should
be made to any components or
wiring of the supplemental air
bag system. This is to prevent
accidental inflation of the supple-
mental air bag or damage to the
supplemental air bag system.
. Do not make unauthorized
changes to your vehicle’s electri-
cal system, suspension system or
front end structure. This could
affect proper operation of the
front air bag system.
. Tampering with the air bag sys-
tem may result in serious perso-

2-58Instruments and controls
(GAWR front and rear). The GVWR and
GAWR are located on the F.M.V.S.S. or C.V.
M.S.S. certification label (located on the
driver’s door pillar). For additional infor-
mation regarding GVWR and GAWR, refer
to “Vehicle loading information” (P.10-14).
WARNING
.Always install the cross bars onto
the roof side rails before loading
cargo of any kind. Loading cargo
directly onto the roof side rails or
the vehicle’s roof may cause ve-
hicle damage.
. Drive extra carefully when the
vehicle is loaded at or near the
cargo carrying capacity, espe-
cially if the significant portion of
that load is carried on the roof
rack.
. Heavy loading of the roof rack
has the potential to affect the
vehicle stability and handling
during sudden or unusual hand-
ling maneuvers.
. Roof rack load should be evenly
distributed.
. Do not exceed maximum roof
rack load weight capacity. .
Properly secure all cargo with
ropes or straps to help prevent it
from sliding or shifting. In a sud-
den stop or collision, unsecured
cargo could cause personal in-
jury.

REAR BUMPER COVER
The rear bumper cover helps prevent the
rear bumper from being scratched or
damaged when loading or unloading a
cargo.
1. Open the cargo floor board using the
handle
.

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 dampened 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 manufacturer’s recommendations.
Some fabric protectors contain chemicals
that may stain or bleach the seat materi-
al.
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
classification sensors. This can also
affect the operation of the air bag
system and result in serious perso-
nal injury.
CAUTION
.Never use benzine, thinner, or any
similar material.
. For cleaning, use a soft cloth,
dampened with water. Never use
a rough cloth, alcohol, benzine,
thinner or any kind of solvent or
paper towel with a chemical
cleaning agent. They will scratch
or cause discoloration to the lens.
. Do not spray any liquid such as
water on the meter lens. Spraying
liquid may cause the system to
malfunction.
. Small dirt particles can be abra-
sive and damaging to the leather
surfaces and should be removed
promptly. Do not use saddle soap,
car waxes, polishes, oils, cleaning
fluids, solvents, detergents or
ammonia-based cleaners as they
may damage the leather’s natural
finish.
. Only use fabric protectors ap-
proved by NISSAN.
. 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 pre-
cautions:
.Hanging-type air fresheners can
cause permanent 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 disco-
loration when spilled on interior sur-
faces.
Carefully read and follow the manufac-
turer’s instructions before using air fresh-
eners.
FLOOR MATS
WARNING
To avoid potential pedal interference
that may result in a collision, injury
or death:
. NEVER place a floor mat on top of
another floor mat in the driver
front position or install them up-
side down or backwards.
Appearance and care7-5
CLEANING INTERIOR

7-6Appearance and care
.Use only genuine NISSAN floor
mats or equivalent floor mats
that are specifically designed for
use in your vehicle model and
model year.
. Properly position the mats in the
floorwell using the floor mat po-
sitioning hooks. See “Floor mat
installation” (P.7-6).
. Make sure the floor mat does not
interfere with pedal operation.
. Periodically check the floor mats
to make sure they are properly
installed.
. After cleaning the vehicle interior,
check the floor mats to make
sure they are properly installed.
The use of genuine NISSAN floor mats can
extend the life of your vehicle carpet and
make it easier to clean the interior. Mats
should be maintained with regular clean-
ing and replaced if they become exces-
sively worn.
SAI0038
Front (example)
Floor mat installation
Your vehicle is equipped with floor mat
positioning hook(s). The number and
shape of the floor mat positioning hooks
for each seating position varies depend-
ing on the vehicle.
When installing genuine NISSAN floor
mats, follow the installation instructions
provided with the floor mat and the
following:
1. Position the floor mat in the floorwell so that the mat grommet holes are
aligned with the hook(s).
2. Secure the grommet holes into the hook(s) and ensure that the floor mat is properly positioned.
3. Make sure the floor mat does not interfere with pedal operation. With
the ignition in the OFF position and
the shift lever in the P (Park) position,
fully apply and release all pedals. The
floor mat must not interfere with
pedal operation or prevent the pedal
from returning to its normal position.
It is recommended you see a NISSAN
dealer for details about installing the
floor mats in your vehicle.

floor mat positioning hooks.
SEAT BELTS
The seat belts can be cleaned by wiping
them with a sponge dampened in a mild
soap solution. Allow the belts to dry
completely before using them.
See “Seat belts” (P.1-20).
WARNING
Do not allow wet seat belts to roll up
in the retractor. NEVER use bleach,
dye, or chemical solvents to cleanthe seat belts, since these materials
may severely weaken the seat belt
webbing.
MOST COMMON FACTORS CON-
TRIBUTING TO VEHICLE CORRO-
SION
.
The accumulation of moisture-retain-
ing dirt and debris in body panel
sections, cavities, and other areas.
. Damage to paint and other protective
coatings caused by gravel and stone
chips or minor traffic accidents.
ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS INFLU-
ENCE THE RATE OF CORROSION
Moisture
Accumulation of sand, dirt and water on
the vehicle body underside can acceler-
ate corrosion. Wet floor coverings will not
dry completely inside the vehicle, and
should be removed for drying to avoid
floor panel corrosion.
Relative humidity
Corrosion will be accelerated in areas of
high relative humidity, especially those
areas where the temperatures stay above
freezing where atmospheric pollution ex-
ists, or where road salt is used.
Appearance and care7-7
CORROSION PROTECTION

7-8Appearance and care
Temperature
A temperature increase will accelerate
the rate of corrosion to those parts which
are not well ventilated.
Air pollution
Industrial pollution, the presence of salt in
the air in coastal areas, or heavy road salt
use will accelerate the corrosion process.
Road salt will also accelerate the disin-
tegration of paint surfaces.
TO PROTECT YOUR VEHICLE FROM
CORROSION
.Wash and wax your vehicle often to
keep the vehicle clean.
. Always check for minor damage to the
paint and repair it as soon as possible.
. Keep drain holes at the bottom of the
doors open to avoid water accumula-
tion.
. Check the underbody for accumula-
tion of sand, dirt or salt. If present,
wash with water as soon as possible.
CAUTION
.NEVER remove dirt, sand or other
debris from the passenger com-
partment by washing it out with a
hose. Remove dirt with a vacuum cleaner.
. Never allow water or other liquids
to come in contact with electronic
components inside the vehicle as
this may damage them.
Chemicals used for road surface deicing
are extremely corrosive. They accelerate
corrosion and deterioration of underbody
components such as the exhaust system,
fuel and brake lines, brake cables, floor
pan and fenders.
In winter, the underbody must be
cleaned periodically.
For additional protection against rust and
corrosion, which may be required in some
areas, it is recommended you consult a
NISSAN dealer.
