PRECAUTIONS ON CHILD
RESTRAINTS

WARNING

. Failure to follow the warnings and

instructions for proper use and in-
stallation of child restraints could
result in serious injury or death of a
child or other passengers in a
sudden stop or collision:

— The child restraint must be used

and installed properly. Always
follow all of the child restraint
manufacturer’s instructions for
installation and use.

— Infants and children should

never be held on anyone’s lap.
Even the strongest adult cannot
resist the forces of a collision.

— Do not put a seat belt around

both a child and another pas-
senger.

— NISSAN recommends that all

child restraints be installed in
the rear seat. Studies show that
children are safer when properly
restrained in the rear seat than
in the front seat. If you must

install a forward-facing child
restraint in the front seat, see
“FORWARD-FACING CHILD RE-
STRAINT INSTALLATION USING
THE SEAT BELTS” later in this
section.

— Even with the NISSAN Advanced

Air Bag System, never install a
rear-facing child restraint in the
front seat. An inflating air bag
could seriously injure or kill a
child. A rear-facing child re-
straint must only be used in the
rear seat.

— Be sure to purchase a child

restraint that will fit the child
and vehicle. Some child re-
straints may not fit properly in
your vehicle.

— Child restraint anchor points are

designed to withstand loads
from child restraints that are
properly fitted.

— Never use the anchor points for

adult seat belts or harnesses.

— A child restraint with a top tether

strap should not be used in the
front passenger seat.

— Keep seatbacks as upright as
