LRS0464
All U.S. states and Canadian provinces
or territories require that infants and
small children be restrained in an ap-
proved child restraint at all times while
the vehicle is being operated.
The instructions in this section apply to
booster seat installation in the rear seats
or the front passenger seat.
Booster seat installation
CAUTION
Do not use the lap/shoulder belt
Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR)
mode when using a booster seatwith 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:

Precautions:
.Make sure that there are no objects
weighing over 9.1 lbs (4 kg) hanging on
the seat or placed in the seatback
pocket.
. Make sure that a child restraint or
other object is not pressing against
the rear of the seatback.
. Make sure that a rear passenger is not
pushing or pulling on the back of the
front passenger seat.
. Make sure that the front passenger
seat or seatback is not forced back
against an object on the seat or floor
behind it.
. Make sure that there is no object
placed under the front passenger
seat.
Steps:
1. Adjust the seat as outlined. (See “Seats” (P.1-3).) Sit upright, leaning
against the seatback, and centered
on the seat cushion with your feet
comfortably extended to the floor.
2. Make sure there are no objects on your lap.
3. Fasten the seat belt as outlined. (See “Seat belts” (P.1-20).)
4. Remain in this position for 30 seconds allowing the system to classify the front passenger before the vehicle is
put into motion.
5. Ensure proper classification by check- ing the front passenger air bag status
light.
NOTE:
This vehicle’s occupant classification
sensor system locks the classification
during driving so it is important that
you confirm that the front passenger is
properly classified prior to driving. Also,
the occupant classification sensor sys-
tem may recalculate the weight of the
occupant when the vehicle comes to a
stop (i.e. stop light, stop sign, etc.), so
the front passenger seat occupant
should continue to remain seated as
outlined above.
Troubleshooting:If you think the front passenger air bag
status light is incorrect:
1. If the light is ON with no front passenger and no objects on the front passenger
seat:
This may be due to the following condi-
tions that may be interfering with the
weight sensors:
.An object weighing over 9.1 lbs (4 kg)
hanging on the seat or placed in the
seatback pocket. .
A child restraint or other object press-
ing against the rear of the seatback.
. A rear passenger pushing or pulling
on the back of the front passenger
seat.
. Forcing the front seat or seatback
against an object on the seat or floor
behind it.
. An object placed under the front
passenger seat.
. An object placed between the seat
cushion and center console or be-
tween the seat cushion and the door.
If the vehicle is moving, please come to a
stop when it is safe to do so. Check and
correct any of the above conditions.
Restart the vehicle and wait 1 minute.
NOTE:
A system check will be performed dur-
ing which the front passenger air bag
status light will remain lit for about 7
seconds initially.
If the light is still ON after this, it is
recommended that the vehicle be
checked by a NISSAN dealer as soon as
possible.
2. If the light is ON with an adult occupying the front passenger seat:
.Occupant is a small adult — the front
passenger air bag status light is func-
tioning as intended. The front passen-

REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT PRO-
CEDURE
The front air bags, knee air bags, side air
bags, curtain air bags and pretensioners
are designed to activate on a one-time-
only basis. As a reminder, unless it is
damaged, the supplemental air bag
warning light will remain illuminated after
inflation has occurred. These systems
should be repaired and/or replaced as
soon as possible. It is recommended you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
When maintenance work is required on
the vehicle, the front air bags, knee air
bags, side air bags, curtain air bags,
pretensioners and related parts should
be pointed out to the person conducting
the maintenance. The ignition switch
should always be in the LOCK position
when working under the hood or inside
the vehicle.
WARNING
.Once a front air bag, knee air bag,
side air bag or curtain air bag has
inflated, the air bag module will
not function again and must be
replaced. Additionally, the acti-
vated pretensioner must also be
replaced. The air bag module and pretensioner should be replaced.
It is recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
However, the air bag module and
pretensioner system cannot be
repaired.
. The front air bag, knee air bag,
side air bag, curtain air bag and
the pretensioner should be in-
spected if there is any damage
to the front end or side portion of
the vehicle. It is recommended
you visit a NISSAN dealer for this
service.
. If you need to dispose of a sup-
plemental air bag or pretensioner
or scrap the vehicle, it is recom-
mended you visit a NISSAN deal-
er. Correct supplemental air bag
and pretensioner system dispo-
sal procedures are set forth in the
appropriate NISSAN Service Man-
ual. Incorrect disposal procedures
could cause personal injury.
. If there is an impact to your
vehicle from any direction, your
Occupant Classification Sensor
(OCS) should be checked to verify
it is still functioning correctly. It is
recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
The OCS should be checked even if no air bags deploy as a result of
the impact. Failure to verify prop-
er OCS function may result in an
improper air bag deployment re-
sulting in injury or death.

Low hydraulic pressure warning indica-
tor:
If the brake warning light illuminates
when the engine is running, or while
driving with the parking brake is released,
check the brake fluid level. If the brake
fluid level is sufficient, it may indicate low
hydraulic pressure in the brake booster. It
is recommended that you have the brake
system checked by a NISSAN dealer
promptly.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning
indicator:
When the parking brake is released and
the brake fluid level is sufficient, if both
the brake warning light and the Anti-lock
Braking System (ABS) warning light illu-
minate, it may indicate the ABS is not
functioning properly. Have the brake
system checked, and if necessary re-
paired. It is recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service. (See “Anti-
lock Braking System (ABS) warning light”
(P.2-14).)
WARNING
.Your brake system may not be
working properly if the warning
light is on. Driving could be dan-
gerous. If you judge it to be safe, drive carefully to the nearest
service station for repairs. Other-
wise, have your vehicle towed
because driving it could be dan-
gerous.
. Pressing the brake pedal with the
engine stopped and/or low brake
fluid level may increase your
stopping distance and braking
will require greater pedal effort
as well as pedal travel.
