– For forward-facing child seats andboosters, DO NOT install if the child
restraint base extends past the
forward edge of the seat cushion
(King Cab® models).
– The child restraint must be used and installed properly. Always fol-
low all of the child restraint manu-
facturer’s instructions for installa-
tion 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 passenger.
– 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, refer to “Forward-facing child
restraint installation using the seat
belts” in this section. – Even with the NISSAN Advanced Air
Bag System, never install a rear-
facing child restraint in the front
seat. An inflating air bag could se-
riously injure or kill a child. A rear-
facing child restraint must only be
used in the rear seat.
– Be sure to purchase a child re- straint that will fit the child and ve-
hicle. Some child restraints may
not fit properly in your vehicle.
– 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 at-
tach adult seat belts, or other items
or equipment to the vehicle. Doing
so could damage the child re-
straint anchorages. The child re-
straint will not be properly in-
stalled using the damaged
anchorage, and a child could be se-
riously injured or killed in a
collision.
– Never use the anchor points for adult seat belts, or other items. – A child restraint with a top tether
strap should not be used in the
front passenger seat (King Cab®
models).
– Keep seatbacks as upright as pos- sible af ter fitting the child
restraint.
– Infants and children should always be placed in an appropriate 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 col-
lision, loose objects can injure occu-
pants or damage the vehicle.

install the child restraint. Be sure to follow
the child restraint manufacturer’s instruc-
tions for installation.
The LATCH lower anchor points are pro-
vided to install child restraints in the rear
outboard seating positions only. Do not at-
tempt to install a child restraint in the cen-
ter position using the LATCH lower an-
chors.
