1-40Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
using a booster seat with the seat
belts.
Refer to all Warnings and Cautions in the
“Child safety”, “Child restraints” and “Boos-
ter seats” sections earlier in this section
before installing a child restraint.
Follow these steps to install a booster
seat in the rear seat or in the front
passenger seat:
SSS0640
1. If you must install a booster seat in
the front seat, move the seat to the
rearmost position.
2. Position the booster seat on the seat. Only place it in a forward-facing
direction. Always follow the booster
seat manufacturer’s instructions.
LRS0454
Front passenger position
3. The booster seat should be positioned
on the vehicle seat so that it is stable.
If necessary, adjust or remove the
head restraint to obtain the correct
booster seat fit. If the head restraint is
removed, store it in a secure place. Be
sure to reinstall the head restraint
when the booster seat is removed.
See “Head restraints/headrests” (P.1-8)
for head restraint adjustment, re-
moval and installation information.
If the seating position does not have a
head restraint and it is interfering with
the proper booster seat fit, try another
seating position or a different booster
seat.

In addition to the above, certain objects
placed on the front passenger seat may
also cause the light to operate as de-
scribed above depending on their weight.
For additional information related to the
normal operation and troubleshooting of
this occupant classification sensor sys-
tem, please refer to “Normal operation”
(P.1-54) and “Troubleshooting” (P.1-55) in
this section.
Front passenger air bag:
The front passenger air bag is designed
to automatically turn OFF when the
vehicle is operated under some condi-
tions as described below as permitted by
U.S. regulations. If the front passenger air
bag is OFF, it will not inflate in a crash. The
driver air bag and other air bags in your
vehicle are not part of this system.
The purpose of the regulation is to help
reduce the risk of injury or death from an
inflating air bag to certain front passen-
ger seat occupants, such as children, by
requiring the air bag to be automatically
turned OFF.
The occupant classification sensors
(weight sensors) are on the seat cushion
frame under the front passenger seat and
are designed to detect an occupant and
objects on the seat. For example, if a child
is in the front passenger seat, the Ad-vanced Air Bag System is designed to turn
the passenger air bag OFF in accordance
with the regulations. Also, if a child
restraint of the type specified in the
regulations is on the seat, the occupant
classification sensors can detect it and
cause the air bag to turn OFF.
Front passenger seat adult occupants
who are properly seated and using the
seat belt as outlined in this manual
should not cause the passenger air bag
and passenger knee air bag to be auto-
matically turned OFF. For small adults it
may be turned OFF, however, if the
occupant does not sit in the seat properly
(for example, by not sitting upright, by
sitting on an edge of the seat, or by
otherwise being out of position), this
could cause the sensors to turn the air
bag OFF. Always be sure to be seated and
wearing the seat belt properly for the
most effective protection by the seat belt
and supplemental air bag.
NISSAN recommends that pre-teens and
children be properly restrained in a rear
seat. NISSAN also recommends that ap-
propriate child restraints and booster
seats be properly installed in a rear seat.
If this is not possible, the occupant
classification sensors are designed to
operate as described above to turn the
front passenger air bag and passenger
knee air bag OFF for specified child
restraints. Failing to properly secure child
restraints and to use the Automatic Lock-
ing Retractor (ALR) mode (child restraint
mode) may allow the restraint to tip or
move in an accident or sudden stop. This
can also result in the passenger air bag
and passenger knee air bag inflating in a
crash instead of being OFF. (See “Child
restraints” (P.1-21) for proper use and
installation.)
If the front passenger seat is not occu-
pied, the passenger air bag and passen-
ger knee air bag are designed not to
inflate in a crash. However, heavy objects
placed on the seat could result in air bag
inflation, because of the object being
detected by the occupant classification
sensors. Other conditions could also re-
sult in air bag inflation, such as if a child is
standing on the seat, or if two children
are on the seat, contrary to the instruc-
tions in this manual. Always be sure that
you and all vehicle occupants are seated
and restrained properly.
Using the front passenger air bag status
light, you can monitor when the front
passenger air bag and passenger knee air
bag are automatically turned OFF.
If an adult occupant is in the seat but the
front passenger air bag status light is
illuminated (indicating that the front pas-
