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

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.

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.

WARNING
The front passenger air bag is de-
signed to automatically turn OFF
under some conditions. Read this
section carefully to learn how it
operates. Proper use of the seat,
seat belt and child restraints is ne-
cessary for most effective protec-
tion. Failure to follow all
instructions in this manual concern-ing the use of seats, seat belts and
child restraints can increase the risk
or severity of injury in an accident.
Status light:
The front passenger air bag status light
is located on the center instrument
panel. After the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position, the front passenger air
bag status light on the instrument panel
illuminates for about 7 seconds and then
turns off or illuminates depending on the
front passenger seat occupied status.
The light operates as follows:
. Unoccupied passenger seat: Thelight is OFF and the front passenger
air bag is OFF and will not inflate in a
crash.
. Passenger seat occupied by a small
adult, child or child restraint as out-
lined in this section: The
light
illuminates to indicate that the front
passenger air bag is OFF and will not
inflate in a crash.
. Occupied passenger seat and the
passenger meets the conditions out-
lined in this section: The
light is
OFF to indicate that the front passen-
ger air bag is operational. Front passenger air bag:

wiring harnesses* should not be
modified or disconnected. Un-
authorized electrical test equip-
ment and probing devices should
not be used on the air bag sys-
tem.
. A cracked windshield should be
replaced immediately by a quali-
fied repair facility. A cracked
windshield could affect the func-
tion of the supplemental air bag
system.
* The SRS wiring harness connectors
are yellow and orange for easy identi-
fication.
When selling your vehicle, we request that
you inform the buyer about the front air
bag system and guide the buyer to the
appropriate sections in this Owner’s Man-
ual.

body.
The seat belts should be correctly worn
and the driver and passenger seated
upright as far as practical away from the
side air bags. The side air bags and
curtain air bags inflate quickly in order
to help protect occupants. Because of
this, the force of the side air bags and
curtain air bags inflating can increase the
risk of injury if the occupant is too close
to, or is against, these air bag modules
during inflation. In a rollover, the curtain
air bags on both sides are designed to
inflate. Under both side-impact situations,
the curtain air bags will remain inflated
for a short period of time.
The side air bags and curtain air bags
operate only when the ignition switch is
in the ON position.
After placing the ignition switch in the
ON position, the supplemental air bag
warning light illuminates. The air bag
warning light will turn off after about 7
seconds if the systems are operational.
WARNING
SEAT BELTS WITH PRETEN-
SIONERS (front seats)
WARNING
.The pretensioners cannot be re-
used after activation. They must
be replaced together with the
retractor and buckle as a unit.

Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC) warning light
The light will blink when the VDC system
or the traction control system is operat-
ing, thus alerting the driver that the
vehicle is nearing its traction limits. The
road surface may be slippery.
If the VDC warning light illuminates when
the VDC system is turned on, this light
alerts the driver to the fact that the VDC
system’s fail-safe mode is operating, for
example the VDC or hill start assist
system may not be functioning properly.
It is recommended you have the system
checked by a GT-R certified NISSAN deal-
er. If a malfunction occurs in the system,
the VDC system function will be canceled
but the vehicle is still driveable.
