serious injuries. You and your passengers
could also slide under the lap belt and
receive serious injuries.
. For the most effective protection while the
vehicle is in motion, the seatback should be
upright. Always sit well back in the seat and
adjust the seat belt properly. (See Seat

secured in the latched position. If they are
not completely secured, passengers may be
injured in an accident or sudden stop.
. Securely store the removed head restraints
(if equipped) to prevent them from being
thrown around in case of a sudden stop or

adjusted properly as they may provide sig-
nificant protection against whiplash injury.
Always replace and adjust them properly if
they have been removed for any reason.

PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT USAGE

GUID-D6A96923-6676-40BF-ABA5-226510496F76
If you are wearing the seat belt properly adjusted and
sitting upright and well back in the seat, chances of
being injured or killed in an accident and/or the severity
of injury may be greatly reduced. NISSAN strongly
encourages you and all of your passengers to buckle
up every time you drive, even if your seating position
includes the supplemental air bag systems.

SEAT BELTS

Black plate (21,1)
SSS0134A
SSS0136A
SSS0014 SSS0016
WARNING:
. Seatbelts 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. Ser-
ious injury may occur if a seat belt is not
worn properly.
. Position the lap belt as low and snug as
possible around the hips, not the waist. A
lap belt worn too high could increase the
risk of internal injuries in an accident.
. Do not allow more than one person to use
the same seat belt. Each belt assembly must
only be used by one occupant; it is danger-
ous to put a belt around a child being carried
on the occupants lap.
. Never carry more people in the vehicle than
there are seat belts.
. Never wear seat belts inside out. Belts
should not be worn with straps twisted.
Doing so may reduce their effectiveness.
. Seatbelts 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.
. Every person who drives or rides in this
vehicle should use a seat belt at all times.
Children should be properly restrained on
the rear seat and, if appropriate, in a child
restraint system.
Safety seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system 1-7
Black plate (22,1)
1-8 Safety seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
. Do not run the belt behind your back or
under your arm. Always route the shoulder
belt over your shoulder and across your
chest. The belt should be away from your
face and neck, but not falling off your
shoulder. Serious injury may occur if a seat
belt is not worn properly.
. No modifications or additions should be
made by the user which will either prevent
the seat belt adjusting devices from operat-
ing to remove slack, or prevent the seat belt
assembly from being adjusted to remove
slack.
. Care should be taken to avoid contamina-
tion 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, con-
taminated 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.
. All seat belt assemblies including retractors
and attaching hardware should be inspected
after any collision by a NISSAN dealer.
NISSAN recommends that all seat belt
assemblies in use during a collision 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, when necessary, replaced if
either damage or improper operation is
noted.
. Once the pre-tensioner seat belt (if
equipped) has activated, it cannot be reused.
It must be replaced together with the
retractor. Contact a NISSAN dealer.
. Removal and installation of the pre-ten-
sioner seat belt system components (if
equipped) should be done by a NISSAN
dealer.

CHILD SAFETY

GUID-BAB8F5D8-D1DC-4C60-8080-5DAA6733F22B
WARNING:
. Infants and children need special protection.
The vehicles seat belts may not fit them
properly. The shoulder belt may come too
close to the face or neck. The lap belt may
not fit over their small hipbones. In an
accident, an improperly fitted seat belt could
cause serious or fatal injury.
. Always use an appropriate child restraint
system.
Children need adults to help protect them. They need
to be properly restrained. The proper restraint depends
on the child’s size.
Infants and small children
GUID-86834268-98A9-4C2A-A71B-B688289A27B9
SSS0099
NISSAN recommends that infants and small children
be seated in a child restraint system. You should
choose a child restraint system that fits your vehicle
and the child, and always follow the manufacturer’s
instructions for installation and use.
Large children
GUID-980A4C6C-98D5-4373-9C27-BCDADB902D30
WARNING:
. Never allow children to stand or kneel on
any seats.
. Never allow children in the cargo areas while
the vehicle is moving. A child could be
seriously injured in an accident or sudden
stop.
Children who are too large for a child restraint system
should be seated and restrained by the seat belts that
are provided.
If the child’s seating position has a shoulder belt that
fits close to the face or neck, the use of a booster seat
(commercially available) may help overcome this. The
booster seat should raise the child so that the shoulder
belt is properly positioned across the top, middle
Black plate (23,1)
portion of the shoulder and the lap belt is low on the
hips. The booster seat should also fit the vehicle seat.
Once the child has grown so that the shoulder belt is
no longer on or near the face or neck of the child, use
the shoulder belt without the booster seat. In addition,
there are many types of child restraint systems
available for larger children that should be used for
maximum protection.

PREGNANT WOMEN

GUID-DC27FAF6-825C-4B88-A052-42F3885DCD35
NISSAN recommends that pregnant women use seat
belts. The seat belt should be worn snug, and always
position the lap belt as low as possible around the
hips, not the waist. Place the shoulder belt over your
shoulder and across your chest. Never run the lap/
shoulder belt over your abdominal area. Contact your
doctor for specific recommendations.

INJURED PERSONS

GUID-385E24D4-B866-4986-9A3B-D5762B143C1D

motion permits the seat 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.

SEAT BELT MAINTENANCE

GUID-BF75E75C-F51C-4CA8-8B79-0873316F8DED
Periodically check that the seat belt and all the metal
components, such as buckles, tongues, retractors,
flexible wires and anchors, work properly. If loose parts,
deterioration, cuts or other damage on the seat belt
webbing is found, the entire seat belt assembly should
be replaced.
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.
To clean the seat belt webbing, apply a mild soap
solution or any solution recommended for cleaning
upholstery or carpet. Then wipe with a cloth and allow
the seat belts to dry in the shade. Do not allow the seat
belts to retract until they are completely dry.

PRECAUTIONS ON CHILD RESTRAINT
USAGE
GUID-C5C178B1-D6BE-4439-B6FE-3C8BC0EA2D26
SSS0099
WARNING:
. Infants and small children should never be
carried on your lap. It is not possible for even
the strongest adult to resist the forces of a
severe accident. The child could be crushed
between the adult and parts of the vehicle.
Also, it is dangerous to put a seat belt
around a child being carried on the occu-
pants lap.
. Infants and children need special protection.
The vehicles seat belts may not fit them
properly. The shoulder belt may come too
close to the face or neck. The lap belt may
not fit over their small hip bones. In an
accident, an improperly fitting seat belt
could cause serious or fatal injury.
. Infants and small children should always be
placed in an appropriate child restraint
system while riding in the vehicle. Failure
to use a child restraint system can result in
serious injury or death.
. Child restraint systems specially designed
for infants and small children are available
from several manufacturers. When selecting
any child restraint systems, place your child
in the child restraint system and check the
various adjustments to be sure that the child
restraint system is compatible with your
child. Always follow the manufacturers in-
structions for installation and use.
. NISSAN recommends that the child restraint
system be installed on the rear seat. Accord-
ing to accident statistics, children are safer
when properly restrained on the rear seat
rather than on the front seat.
. Follow all of the child restraint system
manufacturers instructions for installation
and use. When purchasing a child restraint
system, be sure to select one which will fit
your child and vehicle. It may not be possible
to properly install some types of child
restraint systems in your vehicle.
. For a front-facing child restraint system,
check to make sure the shoulder belt does
not fit close to childs face or neck. If it does,
put the shoulder belt behind the child
restraint system.
. Never install a rear-facing child restraint
system on the front seat. An inflating
supplemental front-impact air bag (if
equipped) could seriously injure or kill your
child. A rear-facing child restraint system
must only be used on the rear seat.
. Adjustable seatbacks should be positioned
to fit a child restraint system, but as upright
as possible.

. If the seat belt in the position where a child
restraint system is installed requires a lock-
ing clip or another locking device and if it is
not used, injuries could result from a child
restraint system tipping over during normal
vehicle braking or cornering.
. After attaching a child restraint system, test
it before you place the child in it. Tilt it from
side to side. Try to tug it forward and check if
it is held securely in place. The child restraint
system should not move more than 25 mm (1
in). If the restraint is not secure, tighten the
belt as necessary, or install the restraint in
another seat and test it again.
. Check the child restraint system in your
vehicle to be sure that it is compatible with
the vehicles seat belt system.
. If a child restraint system is not anchored
properly, the risk of a child being injured in a
collision or a sudden stop greatly increases.
. Improper use of a child restraint system can
increase the risk or severity of injury for both
the child and other occupants in the vehicle.
. Always use an appropriate child restraint
system. An improperly installed child re-
straint system could lead to serious injury
or death in an accident.
. When the child restraint system is not in use,
keep it secured with a seat belt to prevent it
from being thrown around in case of a
sudden stop or accident.
NISSAN recommends that infants and small children
be seated in a child restraint system. You should
choose a child restraint system that fits your vehicle
and always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for
installation and use. In addition, there are many types
of child restraint systems available for larger children
that should be used for maximum protection.
CAUTION:
Remember that a child restraint system left in a
closed vehicle can become very hot. Check the
seating surface and buckles before placing your
child in a child restraint system.
