CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION
USING THE SEAT BELTS
WARNING
. Even with the NISSAN Advanced Air
Bag System, never install a rear-
facing child restraint in the front
passenger seat. Front air bags in-
flate with great force. A rear-facing
child restraint could be struck by the
front air bag in a crash and could
seriously injure or kill your child.
. NISSAN recommends that child re-
straints be installed in the rear seat.
However, if you must install a front-
facing child restraint in the front
passenger seat, move the passen-
ger seat to the rearmost position.
Also, be sure the front passenger air
bag status light is illuminated to
indicate the passenger air bag is
OFF. (
“Front passenger air bag
and status light” page 1-38)
. The three-point seat belt in your
vehicle is equipped with an Auto-
matic Locking Retractor (ALR) mode
which must be used when installing
a child restraint.
. Failure to use the ALR mode will
result in the child restraint not being
properly secured. The restraint
could tip over or otherwise be un-
secured and cause injury to the child
in a sudden stop or collision.
. A child restraint with a top tether
strap should not be used in the front
passenger seat.
The instructions in this section apply to child
restraint installation using the vehicle seat belts
in the rear seat or the front passenger seat.
Front-facing (front passenger seat) — step 1
Front-facing
Follow these steps to install a front-facing child
restraint using the vehicle seat belt in the rear
seat or in the front passenger seat:
1. If you must install a child restraint in
the front seat, it should be placed in a
front-facing direction only. Move the
seat to the rearmost position. Child
restraints for infants must be used in
the rear-facing direction and therefore
must not be used in the front seat.
2. Position the child restraint on the seat.
Always follow the child restraint manufac-
turer’s instructions.
