7. If the child restraint is equipped with a top

tether strap, route the top tether strap and
secure the tether strap to the tether anchor
point (rear seat installation only). See “Top
tether strap child restraint” in this section.
Do not install child restraints that require the
use of a top tether strap to seating positions
that do not have a top tether anchor.

8. After attaching the child restraint, test it be-

fore you place the child in it. Push it from side
to side while holding the seat near the seat
belt path. The child restraint should not
move more than 1 inch (25 mm), side to
side. Try to tug it forward and check to see if

the belt holds the restraint in place. If the
restraint is not secure, tighten the belt as
necessary, or put the restraint in another
seat and test it again. You may need to try a
different child restraint. Not all child re-
straints fit in all types of vehicles.

9. Check that the retractor is in the ALR mode

by trying to pull more seat belt out of the
retractor. If you cannot pull any more seat
belt webbing out of the retractor, the retrac-
tor is in the ALR mode.

10. Check to make sure the child restraint is

properly secured prior to each use. If the
seat belt is not locked, repeat steps 3
through 8.

11. If the child restraint is installed in the front

passenger seat, place the ignition switch in
the ON position. The front passenger air bag
status light

should illuminate. If this

light is not illuminated see

ЉFront passenger

air bag status light

Љ in this section. Move

the child restraint to another seating
position.
Have the system checked by a
NISSAN dealer.

After the child restraint is removed and the seat
belt is fully retracted, the ALR mode (child re-
straint mode) is canceled.
