SEATS
.
The seatback should not be reclined any more than needed for comfort.
Seat belts are most effective when the passenger sits well back and straight up in the seat. If the seatback is reclined, the risk of sliding under the lap belt and being injured is increased.
SSS0133
WARNING
.
Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the seatback is reclined. This can be dangerous. The shoulder belt will not be against your body. In an accident, you could be thrown into it and receive neck or other serious injuries. You could also slide under the lap belt and receive serious internal injuries.
.
For the most effective protection when the vehicle is in motion, the seat should be upright. Always sit well back in the seat with both feet on the floor and adjust the seat belt properly. See “Precautions on seat belt usage” (P.1-10).
.
After adjustment, gently rock in the seat to make sure it is securely locked.
.
Do not leave children unattended inside the vehicle. They could unknowingly activate switches or controls. Unattended children could become involved in serious accidents.

HEAD RESTRAINTS/HEADRESTS
WARNING
Head restraints/headrests supplement the other vehicle safety systems. They may provide additional protection against injury in certain rear end collisions. Adjustable head restraints/headrests must be adjusted properly, as specified in this section. Check the adjustment after someone else uses the seat. Do not attach anything to the head restraint/headrest stalks or remove the head restraint/headrest. Do not use the seat if the head restraint/ headrest has been removed. If the head restraint/headrest was removed, reinstall and properly adjust the head restraint/headrest before an occupant uses the seating position. Failure to follow these instructions can reduce the effectiveness of the head restraint/ headrest. This may increase the risk of serious injury or death in a collision.
SSS1007
The illustration shows the seating positions equipped with head restraints/headrests.
Indicates the seating position is equipped with a head restraint.
.
Your vehicle is equipped with a head restraint/headrest that may be integrated, adjustable or non-adjustable.
.
Adjustable head restraints/headrests have multiple notches along the stalk to lock them in a desired adjustment position.
.
The non-adjustable head restraints/headrests have a single locking notch to secure them to the seat frame.
.
Proper Adjustment:
— For the adjustable type, align the head restraint/headrest so the center of your ear is approximately level with the center of the head restraint/headrest.
— If your ear position is still higher than the recommended alignment, place the head restraint/headrest at the highest position.
.
If the head restraint/headrest has been removed, ensure that it is reinstalled and locked in place before riding in that designated seating position.

SSS0508
FRONT-SEAT ACTIVE HEAD RE-
STRAINTS (if so equipped)
The Active Head Restraint moves forward utilizing the force that the seatback receives from the occupant in a rear-end collision. The movement of the head restraint helps support the occupant’s head by reducing its backward movement and helping absorb some of the forces that may lead to whiplash-type injuries.
Active Head Restraints are effective for collisions at low to medium speeds in which it is said that whiplash injury occurs most.
Active Head Restraints operate only in certain rear-end collisions. After the collision, the head restraints return to their original positions.
The front head restraints have multiple adjustment notches.
Properly adjust the Active Head Restraints as described in this section.

SEAT BELTS
PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT
USAGE
If you are wearing your seat belt properly adjusted, and you are sitting upright and well back in your seat with both feet on the floor, your chances of being injured or killed in an accident and/or the severity of injury may be greatly reduced. NISSAN strongly encourages you and all of your passengers to buckle up every time you drive, even if your seating position includes a supplemental air bag.
Most U.S. states and Canadian provinces or territories specify that seat belts be worn at all times when a vehicle is being driven.
1-10 Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
SSS0136A
SSS0134A
SSS0016
SSS0014
WARNING
.
Every person who drives or rides in this vehicle should use a seat belt at all times.
.
The seat belt should be properly adjusted to a snug fit. Failure to do so may reduce the effectiveness of the entire restraint system and increase the chance or severity of injury in an accident. Serious injury or death can occur if the seat belt is not worn properly.
.
Always route the shoulder belt over your shoulder and across your chest. Never put the belt behind your back, under your arm or across your neck. The belt should be away from your face and neck, but not falling off your shoulder.
.
Position the lap belt as low and snug as possible AROUND THE
HIPS, NOT THE WAIST. A lap belt worn too high could increase the risk of internal injuries in an accident.
.
Be sure the seat belt tongue is securely fastened to the proper buckle.
.
Do not wear the seat belt inside out or twisted. Doing so may reduce its effectiveness.
.
Do not allow more than one person to use the same seat belt.
.
Never carry more people in the vehicle than there are seat belts.
.
If the seat belt warning light glows continuously while the ignition is turned ON with all doors closed and all seat belts fastened, it may indicate a malfunction in the system.
Have the system checked by a
NISSAN dealer.
.
No changes should be made to the seat belt system. For example, do not modify the seat belt, add material or install devices that may change the seat belt routing or tension. Doing so may affect the operation of the seat belt system.
Modifying or tampering with the seat belt system may result in serious personal injury.
.
Once a seat belt pretensioner has activated, it cannot be reused and must be replaced together with the
Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system 1-11
retractor. See a NISSAN dealer.
.
Removal and installation of the pretensioner system components should be done by a NISSAN dealer.
.
All seat belt assemblies, including retractors and attaching hardware, should be inspected after any collision by a NISSAN dealer. NISSAN recommends that all seat belt assemblies in use during a collision be replaced unless the collision was minor and the belts show no damage and continue to operate properly.
Seat belt assemblies not in use during a collision should also be inspected and replaced if either damage or improper operation is noted.
.
All child restraints and attaching hardware should be inspected after any collision. Always follow the restraint manufacturer’s inspection instructions and replacement recommendations. The child restraints should be replaced if they are damaged.
PREGNANT WOMEN
NISSAN recommends that pregnant women use seat belts. The seat belt should be worn snug, and always position the lap belt as low as possible around the hips, not the waist, and place the shoulder belt over your shoulder and across your chest. Never run the lap/shoulder belt over your abdominal area. Contact your doctor for specific recommendations.
INJURED PERSONS
NISSAN recommends that injured persons use seat belts, depending on the injury. Check with your doctor for specific recommendations.
THREE-POINT TYPE SEAT BELT
WARNING
.
Every person who drives or rides in this vehicle should use a seat belt at all times.
.
Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the seatback is reclined. This can be dangerous. The shoulder belt will not be against your body. In an accident, you could be thrown into it and receive neck or other serious injuries. You could also slide under the lap belt and receive serious
1-12 Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system internal injuries.
.
For the most effective protection when the vehicle is in motion, the seat should be upright. Always sit well back in the seat with both feet on the floor and adjust the seat belt properly.
.
Do not allow children to play with the seat belts. Most seating positions are equipped with Automatic
Locking Retractor (ALR) mode seat belts. If the seat belt becomes wrapped around a child’s neck with the ALR mode activated, the child can be seriously injured or killed if the seat belt retracts and becomes tight. This can occur even if the vehicle is parked. Unbuckle the seat belt to release the child. If the seat belt can not be unbuckled or is already unbuckled, release the child by cutting the seat belt with a suitable tool (such as a knife or scissors) to release the seat belt.
SSS0292
Fastening the seat belts
1. Adjust the seat. (See “Seats” (P.1-2).)
2. Slowly pull the seat belt out of the retractor and insert the tongue into the buckle until you hear and feel the latch engage.
.
The retractor is designed to lock during a sudden stop or on impact.
A slow pulling motion permits the belt to move, and allows you some freedom of movement in the seat.
.
If the seat belt cannot be pulled from its fully retracted position, firmly pull the belt and release it. Then smoothly pull the belt out of the retractor.
SSS0290
3. Position the lap belt portion low and snug on the hips as shown.
4. Pull the shoulder belt portion toward the retractor to take up extra slack. Be sure the shoulder belt is routed over your shoulder and across your chest.
The three-point type seat belts have two modes of operation:
.
Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR)
.
Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR)
The Emergency Locking Retractor (ELR) mode allows the seat belt to extend and retract to allow the driver and passengers some freedom of movement in the seat. The ELR locks the seat belt when the vehicle slows down rapidly or during impacts.
The Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) mode
(child restraint mode) locks the seat belt for child restraint installation.
Pull the seat belt out until it is fully extended to activate the ALR mode. Detach the seat belt tongue from the buckle and retract the seat belt completely to cancel the ALR mode and revert back to the ELR mode.
When the ALR mode is activated the seat belt cannot be extended again until the seat belt tongue is detached from the buckle and fully retracted. For additional information, see “Child restraints” (P.1-19).
The ALR mode should be used only for child restraint installation. During normal seat belt use by an occupant, the ALR mode should not be activated. If it is activated it may cause uncomfortable seat belt tension.
WARNING
When fastening the seat belts, be certain that seatbacks are completely secured in the latched position. If they are not completely secured, passengers
Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system 1-13
may be injured in an accident or sudden stop.
SSS0326
Unfastening the seat belts
To unfasten the seat belt, push the button on the buckle. The seat belt automatically retracts.
Checking seat belt operation
Seat belt retractors are designed to lock seat belt movement by two separate methods:
.
When the 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
1-14 Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system restrict further belt movement.
If the retractor does not lock during this check or if you have any question about seat belt operation, see a NISSAN dealer.
SSS0588
Shoulder belt arm (for Coupe models)
Before fastening the seat belt, pull the shoulder belt arm forward until it clicks at the detent position.
Pulling the arm forward will allow an easy access to the belt.
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.
See a NISSAN dealer for assistance with purchasing an extender if an extender is required.
WARNING
.
Only NISSAN seat belt extenders, made by the same company which made the original equipment seat belts, should be used with the
NISSAN seat belts.
.
Adults and children who can use the standard seat belt should not use an extender. Such unnecessary use could result in serious personal injury in the event of an accident.
.
Never use seat belt extenders to install child restraints. If the child restraint is not secured properly, the child could be seriously injured in a collision or a sudden stop.
dry.
.
If dirt builds up in the shoulder belt guide of the seat belt anchors, the seat belts may retract slowly. Wipe the shoulder belt guide with a clean, dry cloth.
.
Periodically check to see that the seat belt and the metal components such as buckles, tongues, retractors, flexible wires and anchors work properly. If loose parts, deterioration, cuts or other damage on the webbing is found, the entire seat belt assembly should be replaced.
SEAT BELT MAINTENANCE
.
To clean the seat belt webbings, apply a mild soap solution or any solution recommended for cleaning upholstery or carpets.
Then, wipe with a cloth and allow the seat belts to dry in the shade. Do not allow the seat belts to retract until they are completely
