Unfastening the seat belts

1

To unfasten the seat belt, press the button on
the buckle. The seat belt automatically re-
tracts.

Checking seat belt operation

Seat belt retractors are designed to lock seat belt
movement by two separate methods:

● When the seat belt is pulled quickly from the

retractor.

● When the vehicle slows down rapidly.

To increase your confidence in the seat belts,
check the operation as follows:

● Grasp the shoulder belt and pull forward

quickly. The retractor should lock and re-
strict further belt movement.

If the retractor does not lock during this check or
if you have any questions about seat belt opera-
tion, see a NISSAN dealer.

Shoulder belt guide

The shoulder arm can be adjusted to allow easier
access to the shoulder belt. The arm can also be
folded down to allow rear seat passengers easier
access.

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.
