properly secured prior to each use. If the
child restraint is loose, repeat steps 3
through 6.

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 inflate 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 center
bench seat, follow these instructions
carefully.

The three-point seat belt in your vehicle

is equipped with an Automatic Locking
Retractor (ALR) 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 unsecured and cause in-
jury to the child in a sudden stop or
collision. Also, it can change the opera-
tion of the front passenger air bag. See
“Front passenger air bag and status
light” later in this section.

When installing a child restraint system

in the rear center position, both the
center seat belt connector tongue and
buckle tongue must be secured. See
“Attaching the 3rd row center seat belt”
earlier in this section.
