INSTALLATION USING THE SEAT
BELTS
WARNING
The three-point seat belt with Auto-
matic Locking Retractor (ALR) must
be used when installing a child re-
straint. Failure to use the ALR mode
will result in the child restraint not
being properly secured. The restraint
could tip over or be loose and cause
injury to a child in a sudden stop or
collision.
For additional information, refer to all
Warnings and Cautions in the “Child
safety” and “Child restraints” sections
before installing a child restraint.
Do not use the lower anchors if the
combined weight of the child and the
child restraint exceeds 65 lbs (29.5 kg). If
the combined weight of the child and the
child restraint is greater than 65 lbs (29.5
kg), use the vehicle’s seat belt (not the
lower anchors) to install the child re-
straint. Be sure to follow the child re-
straint manufacturer’s instructions for
installation. Follow these steps to install a rear-facing
child restraint using the vehicle seat belts
in the rear seats:

For additional information, refer to all
Warnings and Cautions in the “Child
safety” and “Child restraints” sections
before installing a child restraint.
Do not use the lower anchors if the
combined weight of the child and the
child restraint exceeds 65 lbs (29.5 kg). If
the combined weight of the child and the
child restraint is greater than 65 lbs (29.5
kg), use the vehicle’s seat belt (not the
lower anchors) to install the child re-
straint. Be sure to follow the child re-
straint manufacturer’s instructions for
installation.
Follow these steps to install a forward-
facing child restraint using the LATCH

ufacturer’s instructions.
SSS0645Forward-facing web-mounted — step 2
2. Secure the child restraint anchor at-
tachments to the LATCH lower an-
chors. Check to make sure the LATCH
attachment is properly attached to
the lower anchors.
If the child restraint is equipped with a
top tether strap, route the top tether
strap and secure the tether strap to
the tether anchor point. See “Installing
top tether strap” (P.1-37). Do not install
child restraints that require the use of
a top tether strap in seating positions
that do not have a top tether anchor.

Installing top tether strap
WARNING
.Child restraint anchorages are
designed to withstand only those
loads imposed by correctly fitted
child restraints. Under no circum-
stances are they to be used to
attach adult seat belts, or other
items or equipment to the vehi-
cle. Doing so could damage the
child restraint anchorages. The
child restraint will not be properly
installed using the damaged an-
chorage, and a child could be

seriously injured or killed in a
collision.
. Do not hook the top tether strap
on the seatback carpet. Be sure to
use the tether anchor point to
secure the top tether strap.
The child restraint top tether strap must
be used when installing forward-facing
child restraint with the LATCH lower
anchor attachments.
First, secure the child restraint with the
LATCH lower anchors.
1. Remove the head restraint/headrest and store it in a secure place. Be sure
to reinstall the head restraint/head-
rest when the child restraint is re-
moved.
See “Head restraints/headrests” (P.1-9)
for head restraint/headrest adjust-
ment, removal and installation infor-
mation.
2. Position the top tether strap as shown.
3. Secure the top tether strap to the tether anchor point as shown.
4. Refer to the appropriate child restraint installation procedure steps in this
section before tightening the tether
strap. If you have any questions when instal-
ling a top tether strap, it is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.
FORWARD-FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT INSTALLATION USING THE
SEAT BELTS
WARNING
The three-point seat belt with Auto-
matic Locking Retractor (ALR) must
be used when installing a child re-
straint. Failure to use the ALR mode
will result in the child restraint not
being properly secured. The restraint
could tip over or be loose and cause
injury to a child in a sudden stop or
collision. Also, it can change the
operation of the front passenger air
bag. See “Front passenger air bag
and status light” (P.1-54).
For additional information, refer to all
Warnings and Cautions in the “Child
safety” and “Child restraints” sections
before installing a child restraint.
Do not use the lower anchors if the
combined weight of the child and the
child restraint exceeds 65 lbs (29.5 kg). If
the combined weight of the child and the child restraint is greater than 65 lbs (29.5
kg), use the vehicle’s seat belt (not the
lower anchors) to install the child re-
straint. Be sure to follow the child re-
straint manufacturer’s instructions for
installation.
Follow these steps to install a forward-
facing child restraint using the vehicle
seat belt in the rear seats or in the front
passenger seat:

SSS0640Forward-facing (front passenger seat) — step 1
1.If you must install a child restraint in
the front seat, it should be placed in
a forward-facing direction only.
Move the seat to the rearmost posi-
tion. Child restraints for infants must
be used in the rear-facing direction
and, therefore, must not be used in
the front seat.
2. Position the child restraint on the seat. Always follow the child restraint man-
ufacturer’s instructions.
The back of the child restraint should
be secured against the vehicle seat-
back.
If necessary, adjust or remove the
head restraint/headrest to obtain the correct child restraint fit. If the head
restraint/headrest is removed, store it
in a secure place.
Be sure to reinstall
the head restraint/headrest when
the child restraint is removed. See
“Head restraints/headrests” (P.1-9) for
head restraint/headrest adjustment,
removal and installation information.
If the seating position does not have
an adjustable head restraint/headrest
and it is interfering with the proper
child restraint fit, try another seating
position or a different child restraint.
SSS0360BForward-facing — step 3
3. Route the seat belt tongue through
the child restraint and insert it into the
buckle until you hear and feel the
latch engage. Be sure to follow the
child restraint manufacturer’s instruc-
tions for belt routing.
If the child restraint is equipped with a
top tether strap, route the top tether
strap and secure the tether strap to
the tether anchor point (rear seat
installation only). See “Installing top
tether strap” (P.1-42). Do not install
child restraints that require the use
of a top tether strap in seating posi-
tions that do not have a top tether
anchor.
