PREGNANT WOMEN
•
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.
Do not allow children to play with the
seat belts. Most seating positions are
equipped with Automatic Locking Re-
tractor (ALR) mode seat belts. If the
seat belt becomes wrapped around a
child’s neck with the ALR mode acti-
vated, the child can be seriously in-
jured 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.
NISSAN recommends that pregnant women use
seat belts. The seat belt should be worn snug,
and always position the lap belt as low as pos-
sible around the hips, not the waist. Place the
shoulder belt over your shoulder and across your
chest. Never put 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.
Fastening the seat belts
THREE-POINT TYPE SEAT BELT
WITH RETRACTOR
1. Adjust the seat. See “Seats” in this section.
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.
WARNING
• 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 move-
ment in the seat.
•
Every person who drives or rides in this
vehicle should use a seat belt at all
times.
