NOTICE
Make sure the front seatback does
not contact the rear seat when re-
clining the seat. When the front seat
is reclined to the rearmost position, it
may contact the rear seat. This may
cause an indentation in the seat-
back.

, hold the knob
,
and tilt the seatback forward.
2. Use the seat adjustment switchto
slide the seat forward to a position
where it will be easier to enter or exit
the rear seats. Fold the shoulder belt
guide for easier access to the rear
seat.
To return the seatback to its original
position, hold the knob
, raise the seat- back, and use the seat adjustment switch
to adjust the seat position.
WARNING
Head restraints/headrests supple-
ment the other vehicle safety sys-
tems. They may provide additional
protection against injury in certain
rear end collisions.
Head restraints/headrests must be
adjusted properly, as specified in this
section. Check the adjustment after
someone else uses the seat. Failure
to follow these instructions can re-
duce the effectiveness of the head
restraints/headrests. This may in-
crease the risk of serious injury or
death in a collision.
Safety

.If the vehicle becomes involved in
a collision but the pretensioner is
not activated, it is recommended
to have the pretensioner system
checked and, if necessary, re-
placed by a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer.
. No unauthorized changes should
be made to any components or
wiring of the pretensioners. This
is to prevent damage to or acci-
dental activation of the preten-
sioners. Tampering with the
pretensioner system may result
in serious personal injury.
. Work around and on the preten-
sioners should be done by a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer. Installa-
tion of electrical equipment
should also be done by a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer. Un-
authorized electrical test equip-
ment and probing devices should
not be used on the pretensioners.
. If you need to dispose of a pre-
tensioner or scrap the vehicle, it is
recommended you contact a
GT-R certified NISSAN dealer. In-
correct disposal procedures
could cause personal injury. The pretensioner system may activate
with the supplemental air bag system in
certain types of collisions. Working with
the seat belt retractor, it helps tighten the
seat belt when the vehicle becomes
involved in certain types of collisions,
helping to restrain front seat occupants.
The pretensioner is encased with the seat
belt retractor. These seat belts are used
the same way as conventional seat belts.
When a pretensioner activates, smoke is
released and a loud noise may be heard.
The smoke is not harmful, and it does not
indicate a fire. Care should be taken not
to inhale it as it may cause irritation and
choking. Those with a history of a breath-
ing condition should get fresh air
promptly.
After pretensioner activation, load limiters
allow the seat belt to release webbing (if
necessary) to reduce forces against the
chest.
The supplemental air bag warning light
“Supplemental air bag warning light”
page 1-48 for more details.) If the opera-
tion of the supplemental air bag warning
light indicates there is a malfunction, it is
recommended you have the system
checked by a GT-R certified NISSAN deal-
er. When selling your vehicle, we request that
you inform the buyer about the preten-
sioner system and guide the buyer to the
appropriate sections in this Owner’s Man-
ual.

.The supplemental air bag warning
light remains on after approximately
7 seconds.
. The supplemental air bag warning
light flashes intermittently.
. The supplemental air bag warning
light does not come on at all.
Under these conditions, the air bag and/
or pretensioner systems may not operate
properly. They must be checked and
repaired. It is recommended you take
your vehicle to the nearest GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer.

Fastening the seat belts1. Adjust the seat. (
“Seats” page 1-2)
2. Slowly pull the seat belt out of the retractor and insert the tongue into
the buckle until you hear and feel the
latch engage.
.
The retractor is designed to lock
during a sudden stop or on im-
pact. A slow pulling motion per-
mits the belt to move, and allows
you some freedom of movement
in the seat.
.
If the seat belt cannot be pulled
from its fully retracted position,
firmly pull the belt and release it. Then smoothly pull the belt out of
the retractor.

The ELR locks the seat belt when the
vehicle slows down rapidly or during
impacts.
The Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR)
mode or child restraint mode locks the
seat belt for child restraint installation.
When the ALR mode is activated the seat
belt cannot be extended again until the
seat belt tongue is detached from the
buckle and fully retracted. The seat belt
returns to the ELR mode after the seat
belt is fully retracted.
(
“Front passenger air bag and
status light” page 1-42)
WARNING
When fastening the seat belts, be
certain that seatbacks are comple-
tely secured in the latched position.
If they are not completely secured,
passengers may be injured in an
accident or sudden stop.
Unfastening the seat beltsTo unfasten the seat belt, push the
button on the buckle. The seat belt
automatically retracts.
Checking seat belt operationSeat belt retractors are designed to lock
seat belt movement by two separate
methods:
. When the belt is pulled quickly from
the retractor.
. When the vehicle slows down rapidly.
To increase your confidence in the seat
belts, check the operation as follows:
. Grasp the shoulder belt and pull for-
ward quickly. The retractor should
lock and restrict further belt move-
ment.
If the retractor does not lock during this
check or if you have any question about
seat belt operation, see a GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer.
