ON-PAVEMENT AND OFF-ROAD DRIVING

SEATS

Information Provided by:

WARNING

● 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.

ARS1152

● For the most effective protection when the vehicle is in motion, the seat should be upright. Always sit well back in the seat with both feet on the floor and adjust the seat properly. For additional information, refer to “Precautions on seat belt usage” in this section.

● After adjustment, gently rock in the seat to make sure it is securely locked.

● Do not leave children or adults who would normally require assistance of others alone in your vehicle. Pets should also not be left alone. They could accidentally injure themselves or others through inadvertent operation of the vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny days, temperatures in a closed vehicle could quickly become high enough to cause severe or possibly fatal injuries to people or animals.

● Do not adjust the driver’s seat while driving so full attention may be given to vehicle operation. The seat may move suddenly and could cause loss of control of the vehicle.

● The seatback should not be reclined 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.

CAUTION

When adjusting the seat positions, be sure not to contact any moving parts to avoid possible injuries and/or damage.

WARNING

● After adjustment, check to be sure the seat is securely locked.

ARMRESTS

The rear bench center armrest is locked in the up position. To lower the armrest, pull the armrest down.

To return the armrest to the up position, push up on the armrest until it is in the full up position.

FLEXIBLE SEATING

WARNING

● Never allow anyone to ride in the cargo area or on the rear seats when they are in the fold-down position. In a collision, people riding in these areas without proper restraints are more likely to be seriously injured or killed.

● Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat belts. Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly.

● Do not allow more than one person to use the same seat belt.

● Do not fold down the rear seats when occupants are in the rear seat area or any luggage is on the rear seats.

– Make sure that the seat path is clear

before moving the seat.

– Be careful not to allow hands or feet

to get caught or pinched in the seat.

● Head restraints/headrests should be adjusted properly as they may provide significant protection against injury in an accident. Always replace and adjust them properly if they have been removed for any reason.

● If the head restraints/headrests are removed for any reason, they should be securely stored to prevent them from causing injury to passengers or damage to the vehicle in case of sudden braking or an accident.

● When returning rear row seatbacks to the upright position, either by manual operation or power operation (if so equipped), the operator should always verify that the back is locked in the upright position by gently rocking the seatback before allowing passengers to occupy the rear seats. If they are not completely secured, passengers may be injured in an accident or sudden stop.

● Properly secure all cargo to help prevent it from sliding or shifting. Do not place cargo higher than the seatbacks. In a sudden stop or collision, unsecured cargo could cause personal injury.

Information Provided by:

Folding the rear bench seat

Before folding the rear seats:

● Disconnect and secure the center seat belt and tongue into the retractor base. For additional information, refer to “Stowing the rear center seat belt” in this section.

To fold down the seatbacks:

1. Pull the strap on the rear seat.

2. Pull the lever beside the cargo area and fold the seatback.

● Secure the seat belts on the seat belt hooks on the side wall. For additional information, refer to “Seat belt hooks” in this section.

Power operation (if so equipped):

1. Push and hold the corresponding switch located on the lower side of the instrument panel or the right or left side in the cargo area.

A beep sounds once and the seatback will be returned automatically.

A beep sounds twice when the seatback is fully returned to the seating position.

If the control unit detects any obstacle or malfunctions while in the power operation, a beep sounds for 4 seconds and the seatback will return to the folded position automatically. Check if there are any obstacles caught that prevent seats from returning to the folded position. See a NISSAN dealer if the beep still sounds.

CAUTION

When operating the rear power seatback return, make sure that the vehicle is stopped and the transmission is in the P (Park) position.

WARNING

● When returning the seatbacks, be sure to attach the rear center seat belt connector.

● Do not unfasten the rear center seat belt connector except when folding down the rear seat.

● When attaching the rear center seat belt connector, be certain that the seatbacks are completely secured in the latched position and the rear center seat belt connector is completely secured.

● If the rear center seat belt connector and the seatbacks are not secured in the correct position, serious personal injury may result in an accident or sudden stop.

Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system 1-9

HEAD RESTRAINTS/HEADRESTS

Information Provided by:

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 restraints/headrests. This may increase the risk of serious injury or death in a collision.

LRS2403

The illustration shows the seating positions equipped with head restraints/headrests.

䉱 Indicates the seating position is equipped with a head restraint.

䡲 Indicates the seating position is equipped with a headrest.

+ Indicates the seating position is not equipped with a head restraint or headrest (if applicable).

● Your vehicle is equipped with a head restraint/headrest that may be integrated, adjustable or non-adjustable.

● Adjustable head restraints/headrests have multiple notches along the stalk(s) to lock them in a desired adjustment position.

● Proper Adjustment:

– For the adjustable type, align the head

restraint/headrest so the center of your ear is approximately level with the center of the head restraint/headrest.

– If your ear position is still higher than the

recommended alignment, place the head restraint/headrest at the highest position.

● If the head restraint/headrest has been removed, ensure that it is reinstalled and locked in place before riding in that designated seating position.
