ON-PAVEMENT AND OFF-ROAD DRIVING (4WD models)
This vehicle will handle and manoeuvre differently from an ordinary passenger vehicle, because it has a higher centre of gravity for off-road use. 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 “On-pavement and off-road driving precautions” and “Fourwheel drive (4WD)” in the “5. Starting and driving” section of this manual.
The NISSAN GREEN PROGRAM symbol indicates environmentally friendly information and best practices.
This symbol means “Do not do this” or “Do not let this happen”.
Arrows in an illustration that are similar to these point to the front of the vehicle.
Arrows in an illustration that are similar to these indicate movement or action.
Arrows in an illustration that are similar to these call attention to an item in the illustration.

SEATS
WARNING
•Do not adjust the driver’s seat while driving. The seat may move suddenly and could cause loss of control of the vehicle.
•After adjustment, gently rock in the seat to make sure it is securely locked.
•The seatback should not be reclined any more than needed for comfort. Seat belts are most effective when the passenger sits well back and upright in the seat. If the seatback is reclined, the risk of sliding under the lap belt and being injured is increased.
•When returning the seatbacks to the upright position, be certain that they are completely secured in the latched position. If they are not completely secured, passengers may be injured in an accident or sudden stop. When operating the seatback release always rock the seatback afterward to check that it is locked.
•When the vehicle is being used to carry cargo, 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.
•Never allow anyone to ride in the luggage area or on the rear seat when it is in the foldeddown position. Use of these areas by passengers without proper restraints could result in serious injury in an accident or sudden stop.
•Closely supervise children when they are around the vehicle to prevent them from playing and being locked in the luggage compartment where they could be seriously injured. Keep the vehicle locked with the rear seatback securely latched when not in use, and prevent children from having access to the vehicle’s keys.

•Head restraints should be adjusted properly as they may provide significant protection against injury in an accident. Check the height after someone else uses the seat.
•If the head restraints 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.
•7–seater: The head restraints of the 3rd row should always be put into the highest position when the seat is occupied.

SEAT BELTS
ACTIVE HEAD RESTRAINTS (front seats)
SPA1025Z
WARNING
•Always adjust the head restraints properly as specified in the previous section. Failure to do so can reduce the effectiveness of the active head restraint.
•Active head restraints are designed to supplement other safety systems. Always wear seat belts. No system can prevent all injuries in an accident.
•Do not attach anything to the head restraint stalks. Doing so could impair the active head restraint’s function.
The head restraint moves forward utilising the force that the seatback receives from the occupant in a rear-end collision. The movement of the head restraint helps support the occupant’s head by reduc-
ing its backward movement and by helping to absorb some of the forces that may lead to whiplash type injuries.
Active head restraints are effective for collisions at low to medium speeds in which it is said that whiplash injury occurs most.
Active head restraints operate only in certain rearend collisions. After the collision, the head restraints return to their original positions.
Properly adjust the active head restraints as described in the previous section.
1-6 Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
NPA1051
WARNING
7–seater: Seat belts for 3rd row seats are not part of the seat belt warning monitoring system.
SEAT BELT WARNINGS
jA Driver and front passenger
The seat belt warning lights, located in the instrument panel jA , will light up if the driver and/or front passenger seat belts have not been fastened. See “Warning/indicator lights and audible reminders” in the “2. Instruments and controls” section for further details.
jB Rear passengers
The rear passenger seat belt warning is shown in the vehicle information display jB . See “Vehicle information display” in the “2. Instruments and controls” section.
The seat belt warning alerts the driver and/or front passenger if a (rear) seat belt is not securely fas-

tened. The seat belt warning shows a filled circle when the ignition switch is turned to the ON position and an empty circle when the related seat belt has been securely fastened, or after approximately 35 seconds after engine start, or when acknowledged by the driver pushing the steering wheel switch ji (where fitted).
NOTE
•If there is a change in (2nd row) rear seat belt status during a journey then the applicable symbol for any unbuckled seat will show again for a further 35 seconds.
•The front passenger seat belt warning light will not illuminate if the seat is unoccupied.
•Seat belts for 3rd row seats (where fitted) are not part of the seat belt warning monitoring system.
PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT USAGE
SSS0136Z
Sit upright and well back
SSS0134Z
Sit upright and well back
Your chances of being injured in an accident and/or the severity of injury may be greatly reduced if you are wearing your seat belt and it is properly adjusted. NISSAN strongly encourages you and all of your passengers to buckle up every time you drive, even if your seating position is equipped with an air bag.
WARNING
Be sure to observe the following warnings when using seat belts. Failure to do so could increase the chance and/or severity of injury in an accident.
•Seat belts are designed to bear upon the bony structure of the body, and should be worn low across the front of the pelvis or the pelvis, chest and shoulders, as applicable; wearing the lap section of the belt across the abdominal area must be avoided.
•No modifications or additions should be made by the user which will either prevent the seat belt adjusting devices from operating to remove slack, or prevent the seat belt assembly from being adjusted to remove slack.
•Seat belts should be adjusted as firmly as possible, consistent with comfort to provide the protection for which they have been designed. A slack belt will greatly reduce the protection afforded to the wearer.
•Care should be taken to avoid contamination of the webbing with polishes, oils and chemicals, and particularly battery acid. Cleaning may safely be carried out using mild soap and water. The belt should be replaced if webbing becomes frayed, contaminated or damaged.
•It is essential to replace the entire assembly after it has been worn in a severe impact even if damage to the assembly is not obvious.
Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system 1-7
Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine
•Belts should not be worn with straps twisted.
•Each belt assembly must only be used by one occupant; it is dangerous to put a belt around a child being carried on the occupant’s lap.
•Every occupant in this vehicle should wear a seat belt at all times.
•Never carry more people in the vehicle than there are seat belts.
•All seat belt assemblies, including retractors and attaching hardware, should be inspected by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop after any collision. NISSAN recommends that all seat belt assemblies in use during a collision should be replaced unless the collision was minor and the belts show no damage and continue to operate properly. Seat belt assemblies not in use during a collision should also be inspected and replaced if either damage or improper operation is noted.
•Once the pre-tensioner seat belt has been activated, it cannot be re-used. It must be replaced together with the retractor. See a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
•Removal and installation of the pre-tensioner seat belt system components should be done by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop ONLY.
•If the seat belt warning light glows continuously while the ignition switch is in the ON position, all doors are closed and occupied seat belts are fastened, it may indicate a mal-
function in the system. Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
•Always route the shoulder belt over your shoulder and across your chest. Never run the belt under your arm. Serious injury can occur if the seat belt is not worn properly.
•Position the lap belt as low as possible AROUND THE HIPS, NOT THE WAIST.
CHILD SAFETY
SSS0099Z
Infants or small children
NISSAN recommends that infants or small children should be seated in a child restraint on the rear seats if available. According to accident statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seat than in the front seat. See “Child restraints” later in this section. You should choose a child restraint system which fits your vehicle and always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for installation and use.
1-8 Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
Children
Children who are too large for child restraints should be seated and restrained by the seat belts that are provided.
The use of a booster seat (commercially available) may help to avoid the shoulder belt coming across the face or neck area of a child’s seating position. The booster seat should raise the child so that the shoulder belt is properly positioned across the top, middle portion of the shoulder and the lap belt is low on the hips. The booster seat should fit the vehicle’s seat. Once the child has grown so the shoulder belt is no longer on or near the face and neck, use the shoulder belt without the booster seat.
WARNING
Never let a child stand or kneel on any seat and do not allow a child in the cargo areas while the vehicle is moving.
PREGNANT WOMEN
NISSAN recommends that pregnant women use seat belts. Contact your doctor for specific recommendations. The seat belt should be worn snug, always position the lap belt as low as possible around the hips, place the shoulder belt over your shoulder and across your chest. Never run the lap/ shoulder belt over your abdominal area.

INJURED PERSONS
NISSAN recommends that injured persons use seat belts, depending on the injury. Check with your doctor for specific recommendations.
THREE-POINT TYPE SEAT BELTS
Every person who drives or rides in this vehicle should wear a seat belt at all times.
Fastening the seat belts
1.Adjust the seat.
WARNING
The seatback should not be reclined any more than needed for comfort. Seat belts are most effective when the passenger sits well back and upright in the seat. If the seat is reclined, the risk of sliding under the lap belt and being injured is increased.
SSS0292Z
CAUTION
The seat belt retractor is designed to lock during a sudden impact. A slow pulling motion will permit the belt to move and allow you some freedom of movement in the seat.

Shoulder belt height adjustment (front seats only)
The shoulder belt anchor height should be adjusted to the position best for you (see “Precautions on seat belt usage” earlier in this section).
To adjust, depress the adjustment button as illustrated and move the shoulder belt anchor to the appropriate position, so that the belt passes over
the centre of the shoulder. Release the adjustment button to lock the shoulder belt anchor into position.
WARNING
•After adjustment, release the adjustment button and check by moving the shoulder belt assembly up and down to make sure the shoulder belt anchor is securely fixed in position.
•The seat belt should be away from your face and neck, but not falling off your shoulder.
Checking the seat belt operation
Your seat belt retractors are designed to lock the belt movement in two separate situations:
•When the belt is pulled quickly from the retractor.
•When the vehicle slows down rapidly.
To increase your confidence in the belts, check the operation as follows:
Take place in the seat for which you wish to check the belt operation. Grasp the shoulder belt and pull quickly forward. The retractor should lock and restrict further belt movement.
If the retractor does not lock during these checks or if you have any questions about the seat belt operation, see a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
SEAT BELT MAINTENANCE
•To clean the seat belt webbing, apply a mild soap solution or any solution recommended for cleaning upholstery or carpets. Then brush it, wipe with a cloth and allow it to dry in the shade. Do not allow the seat belts to retract until they are completely dry.
•If dirt builds up in the shoulder belt guide of the seat belt anchors, the seat belts may retract slowly. Wipe the shoulder belt guide with a clean, dry cloth.
•Periodically check to see whether the seat belt and the metal components such as buckles, tongues, retractors, flexible wires and anchors work properly. If loose parts, deterioration, cuts or other damage to the webbing is found, the entire belt assembly should be replaced.
