replaced unlessthecollision wasminor
and thebelts show nodamage andcontinue
to operate properly. Seatbeltassemblies
not inuse during acollision shouldalsobe
inspected and,when necessary, replacedif
either damage orimproper operation is
noted.

CHILD SAFETY
T32A1308 27-21B0D B95-14A2-4 73E-92AA-1384BE5E3511
WARNING:
. Infants andchildren needspecial protection.
The vehicle's seatbelts maynotfitthem
properly. Theshoulder beltmay come too
close tothe face orneck. Thelapbelt may
not fitover their small hipbones. Inan
accident, animproperly fittedseatbeltcould
cause serious orfatal injury.
. Always useanappropriate childrestraint
system.
Children needadults tohelp protect them.Theyneed
to be properly restrained. Theproper restraint depends
on the child's size.

NISSAN recommends thatinfants andsmall children
be seated inachild restraint system.You should
choose achild restraint systemthatfitsyour vehicle
and thechild, andalways followthemanufacturer's
instructions forinstallation anduse.
Large children
T32A1308 27-080B8EE5-AA4F-4 AF7-AC3E-2 E920E4076D3
WARNING:
. Never allowchildren tostand orkneel on
any seats.
. Never allowchildren inthe cargo areaswhile
the vehicle ismoving. Achild could be
seriously injuredinan accident orsudden
stop.
Children whoaretoo large forachild restraint system
should beseated andrestrained bythe seat belts that
are provided.
If the child's seating position hasashoulder beltthat
fits close tothe face orneck, theuse ofabooster seat
(commercially available)mayhelp overcome this.The
booster seatshould raisethechild sothat theshoulder
belt isproperly positioned acrossthetop, middle
portion ofthe shoulder andthelapbelt islow onthe
hips. Thebooster seatshould alsofitthe vehicle seat.
Once thechild hasgrown sothat theshoulder beltis
no longer onornear theface orneck ofthe child, use
the shoulder beltwithout thebooster seat.Inaddition,
there aremany types ofchild restraint systems
available forlarger children thatshould beused for
maximum protection.

ious vehicle damage couldoccurandmay
lead toan accident andcould result in
serious personal injury.Check thetire pres-
sure forallfour tires. Adjust thetire pressure
to the recommended COLDtirepressure
shown onthe tire placard toturn thelow tire
