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 acci-
dent, you could be thrown into it and
receive 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 ad-
just the seat properly. For additional
information, refer to “Precautions on
seat belt usage” in this section.
• Af ter adjustment, gently rock in the seat to make sure it is securely
locked. • Do not leave children unattended
inside the vehicle. They could un-
knowingly activate switches or con-
trols or make the vehicle move. Un-
attended children could become
involved in serious accidents.
• To help avoid risk of injury or death through unintended operation of
the vehicle and/or its systems, do
not leave children, people who re-
quire the assistance of others or
pets unattended in your vehicle. Ad-
ditionally, the temperature inside a
closed vehicle on a warm day can
quickly become high enough to
cause a significant risk of injury or
death to people and pets.
• Do not adjust the driver’s seat while driving so full attention may be
given to vehicle operation. The seat
may move suddenly and could
cause loss of control of the vehicle.
• The seatback should not be reclined any more than needed for comfort.
Seat belts are most effective when
the passenger sits well back and
straight up in the seat. If the seat-
back is reclined, the risk of sliding
under the lap belt and being injured
is increased.

Folding
Before folding the rear seats:
• Secure the seat belts on the seat belthooks located on the side wall. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Seat belt hook”
in this section.
To fold down the seatback, pull the release
knob.
To return the seatback to the seating posi-
tion, lif t up each seatback and push it to the
upright position until it is latched.
WARNING
• Do not fold down the rear seats when occupants are in the rear seat
area or any objects are on the rear
seats.
• Never allow anyone to ride in the cargo area or on the rear seats when
they are in the folded-down posi-
tion. Use of these areas by passen-
gers without proper restraints could
result in serious injury or death in an
accident or sudden stop.
1-6Safety–Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

• Properly secure all cargo with ropesor straps to help prevent it from slid-
ing or shif ting. Do not place cargo
higher than the seatbacks. In a sud-
den stop or collision, 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, passengers may be injured
in an accident or sudden stop.WARNING
Head restraints/headrests supple-
ment the other vehicle safety systems.
They may provide additional protec-
tion against injury in certain rear end
collisions. Adjustable head restraints/
headrests must be adjusted properly,
as specified in this section. Check the
adjustment af ter someone else uses
the seat. Do not attach anything to the
head restraint/headrest stalks or re-
move the head restraints/headrests.
Do not use the seat if the head
restraint/headrest has been removed.
If the head restraint/headrest was re-
moved, reinstall and properly adjust
the head restraint/headrest before an
occupant uses the seating position.
Failure to follow these instructions can
reduce the effectiveness of the head
restraint/headrest. This may increase
the risk of serious injury or death in a
collision. The illustration shows the seating posi-
tions equipped with a head restraint/
headrest.
Indicates the seating position is
equipped with a head restraint.
+ Indicates the seating position is not
equipped with a head restraint or headrest
(if applicable).
• Your vehicle is equipped with a head restraint/headrest that may be inte-
grated, adjustable or non-adjustable.
HEAD RESTRAINTS/HEADRESTS
Safety–Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-7

• Adjustable head restraints/headrestshave multiple notches along the stalks
to lock them in a desired adjustment
position.
• The non-adjustable head restraints/ headrests have a single locking notch to
secure them to the seat frame.
• Proper Adjustment: – For the adjustable type, align the headrestraint/headrest so the center of
your ear is approximately level with the
center of the head restraint/headrest.
– If your ear position is still higher than the recommended alignment, place
the head restraint/headrest at the
highest position.
• If the head restraint/headrest has been removed, ensure that it is reinstalled and
locked in place before riding in that desig-
nated seating position.

3. Position the lap belt portionlow and
snug on the hips as shown.
4. Pull the shoulder belt portion toward the retractor to take up extra slack. Be sure
the shoulder belt is routed over your
shoulder and across your chest.
The front passenger seat and the rear
seating positions three-point seat belts
have two modes of operation:
• Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR)
• Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) The ELR mode allows the seat belt to ex-
tend and retract to allow the driver and
passengers some freedom of movement
in the seat. The ELR locks the seat belt
when the vehicle slows down rapidly or
during certain impacts.
The ALR mode (child restraint mode) locks
the seat belt for child restraint installation.
When ALR mode is activated the seat belt
cannot be extended again until the seat
belt tongue is detached from the buckle
and fully retracted. The seat belt returns to
the ELR mode af ter the seat belt fully re-
tracts. For additional information, refer to
“Child restraints” in this section.
The ALR mode should be used only for
child restraint installation. During nor-
mal seat belt use by an occupant, the ALR
mode should not be activated. If it is
activated, it may cause uncomfortable
seat belt tension. It can also change the
operation of the front passenger air bag.
For additional information, refer to
“Front passenger air bag and status
light” in this section.
WARNING
When fastening the seat belts, be cer-
tain that seatbacks are completely se-
cured in the latched position. If they
are not completely secured, passen-
gers may be injured in an accident or
sudden stop.

It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer for assistance with
purchasing an extender if an extender is
required.
WARNING
• Only NISSAN seat belt extenders, made by the same company which
made the original equipment seat
belts, should be used with NISSAN
seat belts.
• Adults and children who can use the standard seat belt should not use an
extender. Such unnecessary use
could result in serious personal in-
jury in the event of an accident.
• Never use seat belt extenders to in- stall child restraints. If the child re-
straint is not secured properly, the
child could be seriously injured or
killed in a collision or a sudden stop.
SEAT BELT MAINTENANCE
•To clean the seat belt webbing, apply a
mild soap solution or any solution recom-
mended for cleaning upholstery or car-
pets. Then wipe with a cloth and allow the
seat belts to dry in the shade. Do not allow
the seat belts to retract until they are
completely dry.
• If dirt builds up in the shoulder belt
guide of the seat belt anchors, the seat
belts may retract slowly. Wipe the shoul-
der belt guide with a clean, dry cloth.
• Periodically check to see that the seat
belt and the metal components , such as
buckles, tongues, retractors, flexible wires
and anchors, work properly. If loose parts,
deterioration, cuts or other damage on
the webbing is found, the entire seat belt
assembly should be replaced.WARNING
Do not allow children to play with the
seat belts. Most seating positions are
equipped with Automatic Locking Re-
tractor (ALR) mode seat belts. If the
seat belt becomes wrapped around a
child’s neck with the ALR mode acti-
vated, the child can be seriously in-
jured or killed if the seat belt retracts
and becomes tight. This can occur
even if the vehicle is parked. Unbuckle
the seat belt to release the child. If the
seat belt cannot be unbuckled or is al-
ready unbuckled, release the child by
cutting the seat belt with a suitable
tool (such as a knife or scissors) to re-
lease the seat belt.
Children need adults to help protect them.
They need to be properly restrained.
In addition to the general information in
this manual, child safety information is
available from many other sources, includ-
ing doctors, teachers, government traffic
safety offices, and community organiza-
tions. Every child is different, so be sure to
learn the best way to transport your child.
