REAR SEATS

Folding

Before folding the rear seats:
. Secure the seat belts on the seat belt hooks

on the side wall. (See “Seat belt hooks”
(P.1-15).)

. Release the connector tongue of the rear

center seat belt from the buckle, and store
the connector and seat belt tongues into the
retractor base on the ceiling. (See “Rear
center seat belt” (P.1-15).)

. If necessary, move the front seats forward to

provide enough clearance so that the rear
seats can be folded down completely.

To fold down the seatback of each rear seat, pull
the adjusting knob

To return the seatback to the seating position, lift
up each seatback and push it to the upright
position until it is latched.

WARNING

. Do not use the rear seat belts when

the buckles are stowed in the seat
pockets. Failure to do so may re-
duce the effectiveness of the entire
restraint system and increase the
chance or severity of injury in an
accident.

. Do not fold down the rear seats

when occupants are in the rear seat
area or any objects are on the rear
seats.

. Never allow anyone to ride in the

cargo area or on the rear seats
when they are in the fold-down
position. Use of these areas by
passengers without proper re-
straints could result in serious injury
in an accident or sudden stop.

. Properly secure all cargo with ropes

or straps to help prevent it from

sliding or shifting. Do not place
cargo higher than the seatbacks. In
a sudden stop or collision, unse-
cured cargo could cause personal
injury.

. 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.

WARNING

Head restraint/headrest supplement
the other vehicle safety systems. They
may provide additional protection
against injury in certain rear end colli-
sions. Adjustable head restraints/head-
rests 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 re-
move the head restraint/headrest. Do
not use the seat if the head restraint/
headrest has been removed. If the head
restraint/headrest was removed, rein-
stall 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.

PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT
USAGE

If you are wearing your seat belt properly
adjusted, and you are sitting upright and well
back in your seat with both feet on the floor, your
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 a
supplemental air bag.

Most U.S. states specify that seat belts be
worn at all times when a vehicle is being
driven.

WARNING

. Every person who drives or rides in

this vehicle should use a seat belt at
all times. Children should be prop-
erly restrained in the rear seat and,
if appropriate, in a child restraint.

. The seat belt should be properly

adjusted to a snug fit. Failure to do
so may reduce the effectiveness of
the entire restraint system and in-
crease the chance or severity of
injury in an accident. Serious injury
or death can occur if the seat belt is
not worn properly.

. Always route the shoulder belt over

your shoulder and across your
chest. Never put the belt behind
your back, under your arm or across
your neck. The belt should be away
from your face and neck, but not
falling off your shoulder.

. 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 acci-
dent.

. Be sure the seat belt tongue is

securely fastened to the proper
buckle.

. Do not wear the seat belt inside out

or twisted. Doing so may reduce its
effectiveness.

. Do not allow more than one person

to use the same seat belt.

. Never carry more people in the

vehicle than there are seat belts.

. If the seat belt warning light glows

continuously while the ignition is
turned ON with all doors closed and
all seat belts fastened, it may in-
dicate a malfunction in the system.
Have the system checked by a
NISSAN dealer.

. No changes should be made to the

seat belt system. For example, do
not modify the seat belt, add mate-
rial, or install devices that may
change the seat belt routing or
tension. Doing so may affect the
operation of the seat belt system.
Modifying or tampering with the
seat belt system may result in
serious personal injury.

. Once a seat belt with pretensioner

has activated, it cannot be reused
and must be replaced together with
the retractor. See a NISSAN dealer.

. Removal and installation of the

pretensioner system components
should be done by a NISSAN dealer.

. All seat belt assemblies, including

retractors and attaching hardware,
should be inspected after any colli-
sion by a NISSAN dealer. NISSAN
recommends that all seat belt as-
semblies in use during a collision be
replaced unless the collision was
minor and the belts show no da-
mage and continue to operate prop-
erly. Seat belt assemblies not in use
during a collision should also be
inspected and replaced if either
damage or improper operation is
noted.

. All child restraints and attaching

hardware should be inspected after
any collision. Always follow the
restraint manufacturer’s inspection
instructions and replacement re-
commendations. The child restraints
should be replaced if they are

damaged.

PREGNANT WOMEN

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 put the lap/shoulder belt over
your abdominal area. Contact your doctor for
specific recommendations.

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 BELT

WARNING

. Every person who drives or rides in

this vehicle should use a seat belt at
all times.

. 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 in the seat with both feet
on the floor and adjust the seat belt
properly.

WARNING

Do not allow children to play with the
seat belts. Most seating positions are
equipped with Automatic Locking Re-
tractor (ALR) mode seat belts. If the
seat belt becomes wrapped around a
child’s neck with the ALR mode acti-
vated, the child can be seriously injured
or killed if the seat belt retracts and
becomes tight. This can occur even if
the vehicle is parked. Unbuckle the seat
belt to release the child. For the center
of the rear seat, the connector tongue

may also be released. Release the
connector tongue

by inserting a

suitable tool (such as a key) into the
connector buckle

. If the seat belt

can not be unbuckled or is already
unbuckled, release the child by cutting
the seat belt with a suitable tool (such
as a knife or scissors) to release the
seat belt.

Fastening the seat belts

1. Adjust the seat. (See “Seats” (P.1-2).)

SSS0292

2. Slowly pull the seat belt out of the retractor

and insert the tongue into the buckle until
you hear and feel the latch engage.

The retractor is designed to lock

during a sudden stop or on impact.
A slow pulling motion permits the
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.

SSS0290

3. Position the lap belt portion low and snug

on the hips as shown.

4. Pull the shoulder belt portion toward the

retractor to take up extra slack. Be sure the
shoulder belt is routed over your shoulder
and across your chest.

The front passenger seat and the rear seating
positions three-point seat belts have two modes
of operation:
. Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR)
. Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR)
The Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) mode
allows the seat belt to extend and retract to
allow the driver and passengers some freedom

of movement in the seat. The ELR locks the seat
belt when the vehicle slows down rapidly or
during certain impacts.

The Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) mode
(child restraint mode) locks the seat belt for
child restraint installation.

When ALR mode is activated the seat belt
cannot be extended again until the seat belt
tongue is detached from the buckle and fully
retracted. The seat belt returns to the ELR mode
after the seat belt fully retracts. For additional
information, see “Child restraints” (P.1-21).

The ALR mode should be used only for
child restraint installation. During normal
seat belt use by an occupant, the ALR
mode should not be activated. If it is
activated, it may cause uncomfortable seat
belt tension.

WARNING

When fastening the seat belts, be
certain that seatbacks are completely
secured in the latched position. If they
are not completely secured, passengers
may be injured in an accident or sudden
stop.

SSS0326

Unfastening the seat belts

To unfasten the seat belt, push the button on the
buckle. The seat belt automatically retracts.

Checking seat belt operation

Seat belt retractors are designed to lock seat
belt movement by two separate methods:
. When the belt is pulled quickly from the

retractor.

. When the vehicle slows down rapidly.
Check the operation as follows:
. Grasp the shoulder belt and pull forward

quickly. The retractor should lock and
restrict further belt movement.

should be adjusted to the position
best for you. Failure to do so may
reduce the effectiveness of the
entire restraint system and increase
the chance or severity of injury in an
accident.

SSS0798

Seat belt hooks

When the rear seat belts are not in use and
when folding down the rear seats, hook the rear
outer seat belts on the seat belt hooks.

SSS0391

center seat belt connector is com-
pletely secured.

. If the rear center seat belt connector

and the seatbacks are not secured
in the correct position, serious per-
sonal injury may result in an acci-
dent or sudden stop.

SEAT BELT EXTENDERS

If, because of body size or driving position, it is
not possible to properly fit the lap-shoulder belt
and fasten it, an extender that is compatible with
the installed seat belts is available that can be
purchased. The extender adds approximately 8
in (200 mm) of length and may be used for either
the driver or front passenger seating position.
See a NISSAN dealer for assistance with
purchasing an extender if an extender is
required.

WARNING

. Only NISSAN seat belt extenders,

made by the same company which
made the original equipment seat
belts, should be used with NISSAN
seat belts.

. Adults and children who can use the

standard seat belt should not use an
extender. Such unnecessary use
could result in serious personal
injury in the event of an accident.

. Never use seat belt extenders to

install child restraints. If the child
restraint is not secured properly, the
child could be seriously injured in a
collision or a sudden stop.

SEAT BELT MAINTENANCE

. To clean the seat belt webbing, apply a

mild soap solution or any solution recom-
mended for cleaning upholstery or carpets.
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.

. 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 that 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 on the
webbing is found, the entire seat belt

assembly should be replaced.
