1-2Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
SSS0133
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 properly. See
“Precautions on seat belt usage”
(P.1-11).
. After adjustment, gently rock in
the seat to make sure it is se-
curely locked.
. Do not leave children unattended
inside the vehicle. They could
unknowingly activate switches
or controls. Unattended children
could become involved in serious
accidents. .
To help avoid risk of injury or
death through unintended opera-
tion of the vehicle and/or its
systems, do not leave children,
people who require the assis-
tance of others or pets unat-
tended in your vehicle.
Additionally, the temperature in-
side 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 re-
clined any more than needed for
comfort. Seat belts are most ef-
fective when the passenger sits
well back and straight up in the
seat. If the seatback is reclined,
the risk of sliding under the lap
belt and being injured is in-
creased.

CAUTION
When adjusting the seat positions,

WARNING
Head restraint/headrest supplement
the other vehicle safety systems.
They may provide additional protec-
tion against injury in certain rear end
collisions. Adjustable head re-
straints/headrests must be adjusted
properly, as specified in this section.
Check the adjustment after someone
else uses the seat. Do not attach
anything to the head restraint/head-
rest stalks or remove the head re-
straint/headrest. Do not use the seat
if the head restraint/headrest has
been removed. If the head restraint/
headrest was removed, 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 colli-
sion.

.Grasp the shoulder belt and pull for-
ward quickly. The retractor should
lock and restrict further belt move-
ment.

SSS0351A
Shoulder belt height adjustment
(for front seats)
The shoulder belt anchor height should
be adjusted to the position best for you.
(See “Precautions on seat belt usage” (P.1-
11).)
To adjust, pull the adjustment button
,
and then move the shoulder belt anchor
to the desired position
, so that the belt
passes over the center of the shoulder.
The belt should be away from your face
and neck, but not falling off of your
shoulder. Release the adjustment button
to lock the shoulder belt anchor into
position.
The range of height adjustment of the shoulder belt may vary depending on the
model.
WARNING
.
After adjustment, release the ad-
justment button and try to move
the shoulder belt anchor up and
down to make sure it is securely
fixed in position.
. The shoulder belt anchor height
should be adjusted to the posi-
tion best for you. Failure to do so
may reduce the effectiveness of
the entire restraint system and
increase the chance or severity of
injury in an accident.
SEAT BELT EXTENDERS
If, because of body size or driving position,
it is not possible to properly fit the lap/
shoulder belt and fasten it, an extender
that is compatible with the installed seat
belts is available that can be purchased.
The extender adds approximately 8 in
(200 mm) of length and may be used for
either the driver or front passenger seat-
ing position. It is recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer for assistance with pur-
chasing an extender if an extender is
required.
