Do not put the belt behind your back or
under your arm. Always route the shoulder
belt over your shoulder and across your
chest. The belt should be away from your
face and neck, but not falling off your
shoulder. Serious injury may occur if a seat
belt is not worn properly.

Once the pre-tensioner seat belt has acti-
vated, it cannot be reused. It must be
replaced together with the retractor. Contact
a NISSAN dealer.
NISSAN recommends that infants and small children
be seated in a child restraint system. You should
choose a child restraint system that fits your vehicle
and the child, and always follow the manufacturer’s
instructions for installation and use.
Removal and installation of the pre-ten-
sioner seat belt system components should
be done by a NISSAN dealer.

No modifications or additions should be
made by the user which will either prevent
the seat belt adjusting devices from operat-

assembly from being adjusted to remove
slack.

The vehicle’s seat belts may not fit them
properly. The shoulder belt may come too
close to the face or neck. The lap belt may
not fit over their small hipbones. In an
accident, an improperly fitted seat belt could
cause serious or fatal injury.
Care should be taken to avoid contamina-
tion of the webbing with polishes, oils and
chemicals, and particularly battery acid.
Cleaning may safely be carried out using
mild soap and water. The belt should be
replaced if webbing becomes frayed, con-
taminated or damaged.
Children who are too large for a child restraint system
should be seated and restrained by the seat belts that
are provided.
.
Always use an appropriate child restraint
system.
If the child’s seating position has a shoulder belt that
fits close to the face or neck, the use of a booster seat
(commercially available) may help overcome this. The
booster seat should raise the child so that the shoulder
belt is properly positioned across the top, middle
portion of the shoulder and the lap belt is low on the
hips. The booster seat should also fit the vehicle seat.
Once the child has grown so that the shoulder belt is
no longer on or near the face or neck of the child, use
the shoulder belt without the booster seat. In addition,
there are many types of child restraint systems
available for larger children that should be used for
maximum protection.
