Foreword
WARNING
Operating, servicing and maintaining a passenger vehicle or
off-highway motor vehicle can
expose you to chemicals including engine exhaust, carbon
monoxide, phthalates, and
lead, which are known to the
State of California to cause
cancer and birth defects or
other reproductive harm. To
minimize exposure, avoid
breathing exhaust, do not idle
the engine except as necessary, service your vehicle in a
well-ventilated area and wear
gloves or wash your hands
frequently when servicing your
vehicle. For more information
go to www.P65Warnings.ca.
gov/passenger-vehicle.
This manual was prepared to help you
understand the operation and maintenance of your vehicle so that you may
enjoy many miles of driving pleasure.
Please read through this manual before
operating your vehicle.
A separate Warranty Information Booklet explains details about the warranties
covering your vehicle. Additionally, a
separate Customer Care/Lemon Law
Booklet (U.S. only) will explain how to
resolve any concerns you may have
with your vehicle, as well as clarify your
rights under your state’s lemon law.
In addition to factory installed options,
your vehicle may also be equipped with
additional accessories installed by NISSAN
or by your NISSAN dealer prior to delivery.
It is important that you familiarize yourself with all disclosures, warnings, cautions and instructions concerning proper
use of such accessories prior to operating
the vehicle and/or accessory. See a
NISSAN dealer for details concerning the
particular accessories with which your
vehicle is equipped.
Your NISSAN dealer knows your vehicle
best. When you require any service or
have any questions, we will be glad to
assist you with the extensive resources
available to us.

mental restraint system
. Do not ride in a moving vehicle
when the seatback is reclined.
This can be dangerous. The
shoulder belt will not be against
your body. In an accident, you
could be thrown into it and receive neck or other serious injuries. You could also slide under
the lap belt and receive serious
internal injuries.
. For the most effective protection
when the vehicle is in motion, the
seat should be upright. Always sit
well back and upright in the seat
with both feet on the floor and
adjust the seat belt properly. See
“Precautions on seat belt usage”
(P.1-10).
. After adjustment, gently rock in
the seat to make sure it is securely locked.
. Do not leave children unattended
inside the vehicle. They could
unknowingly activate switches
or controls. Unattended children
could become involved in serious
accidents.
. To help avoid risk of injury or
death through unintended operation of the vehicle and/or its
systems, do not leave children,
people who require the assistance of others or pets unattended in your vehicle.
Additionally, the temperature inside a closed vehicle on a warm
day can quickly become high
enough to cause a significant risk
of injury or death to people and
pets.
. The seatback should not be re-
clined any more than needed for
comfort. Seat belts are most effective when the passenger sits
well back and straight up in the
seat. If the seatback is reclined,
the risk of sliding under the lap
belt and being injured is increased.
SEATS
WARNING
1-2 Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
SSS0133
CAUTION
. When adjusting the seat posi-
tions, be sure not to contact any
moving parts to avoid possible
injuries and/or damages.
FRONT SEATS
Front power seat adjustment
Operating tips:
. The power seat motor has an auto-
reset overload protection circuit. If the
motor stops during operation, wait 30
seconds, then reactivate the switch.
. Do not operate the power seat switch
for a long period of time when the
engine is off. This will discharge the
battery.
Forward and backward (if so equipped):
Moving the switch
ward will slide the seat forward or backward to the desired position.
Reclining (if so equipped):
Move the recline switch
the desired angle is obtained. To bring the
seatback forward again, move the switch
forward.
The reclining feature allows adjustment
of the seatback for occupants of different
sizes for added comfort and to help
obtain proper seat belt fit. (See “Precautions on seat belt usage” (P.1-10).) The
seatback may also be reclined to allow
forward or back-
backward until

HEAD RESTRAINTS/HEADRESTS
WARNING
Head restraints/headrests supplement the other vehicle safety systems. They may provide additional
protection against injury in certain
rear end collisions. Adjustable head
restraints/headrests must be adjusted properly, as specified in this
section. Check the adjustment after
someone else uses the seat. Do not
attach anything to the head restraint/headrest stalks or remove
the head restraint/headrest. Do not
use the seat if the head restraint/
headrest has been removed. If the
head restraint/headrest was removed, reinstall and properly adjust
the head restraint/headrest before
an occupant uses the seating position. Failure to follow these instructions can reduce the effectiveness of
the head restraint/headrest. This
may increase the risk of serious
injury or death in a collision.
