DRIVING
This vehicle will handle and maneuver differently from an ordinary passenger vehicle because it has a higher center of gravity. As with
other vehicles with features of this type, failure
to operate this vehicle correctly may result in
loss of control or an accident.
Be sure to read “Driving precautions” and
“Avoiding collision and rollover” in the “Starting
and driving” section of this manual.

serious personal injury or death. An electronic copy of the NISSAN body builders
guide is available at
www.nissancommercialvehicles.com.
Modifications made to this vehicle by
conversion companies or dealers may affect the final certification of the engine,
vehicle or equipment. The conversion

claims, resulting from any component,

do not recommend or endorse the use of
any aftermarket OBD plug-in devices, unless specifically approved by NISSAN. The
vehicle warranty may not cover damage
caused by any aftermarket plug-in device.

SEATS
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 and
upright 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 unattended inside
the vehicle. They could unknowingly activate switches or controls or make the
vehicle move. 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.
● 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.
1-2 Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
CAUTION
When adjusting the seat positions, be
sure not to contact any moving parts to
avoid possible injuries and/or damage.
FRONT MANUAL SEAT

FLEXIBLE SEATING
WARNING
● 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.
● Never allow anyone to ride in the cargo
area or on the 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.
● 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 the seatbacks to the
upright position, be certain they are
completely secured in the latched position. 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.
LRS2042
Folding the front passenger’s seatback
To fold the front passenger’s seatback flat for
extra storage length when transporting long
items:
1. Slide the seat to the rearmost position. Lift
up on the recline lever, located on the outside edge of the seat, and allow the seatback to fold forward as far as it will go.
1-6 Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
LRS2034
2. Once the seatback is released, it will enable
you to fold the front passenger seatback flat
over the seat cushion.
3. To return the front passenger’s seat to a
seating position, lift up on the seatback and
push it up to an upright position. Then pull up
on the recline lever and lean the seatback to
a proper seating position. Release the lever
to lock the seatback in position.
WARNING
● If you fold the front passenger’s seatback flat forward to carry longer objects, be sure this cargo is properly secured and not near an air bag. In a crash,
an inflating air bag might force that
object toward a person. This could
cause severe injury or even death. Secure objects away from the area in
which an air bag would inflate. For additional information, refer to “Precautions on SRS” in this section.
● Never allow anyone to ride in the cargo
area or on the front passenger’s seat
when it is in the fold-down position. Use
of these areas by passengers could result in serious injury or death in an accident or sudden stop.
● Properly secure all cargo to help prevent it from sliding and shifting. In a
sudden stop or collision, unsecured
cargo could cause personal injury (even
if the vehicle has equipped a partition
accessory to divide the front seats from
the cargo area) .
CAUTION
Do not apply a load to the back of the
table if it is not fully horizontal. Doing so
may cause deformation/malfunction.
NOTE:
The belt buckle must be in the forwardmost
position for the seat to be folded to avoid
premature aging.
Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system 1-7
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
restraints/headrests. This may increase
the risk of serious injury or death in a
collision.
LRS2631
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.
● The non-adjustable head
restraints/headrests have a single locking
notch to secure them to the seat frame.
● 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.
