PRE-TENSIONER SEAT BELT

SYSTEM

The front seat pre-tensioner seat belt system is ac-

tivated in conjunction with the front air bag system.

It helps tighten the seat belt when the vehicle is

involved in certain types of collisions by restraining

the seat occupants via the seat belt retractor.

after activation. It must be replaced together

with the retractor as a unit.

If the vehicle is involved in a frontal collision

The pre-tensioner is encased with the seat belt's

retractor. These seat belts are used in the same way

as conventional seat belts.

but the pre-tensioner is not activated, be sure

to have the pre-tensioner system checked

and, if necessary, replaced by a NISSAN dealer

or qualified workshop.

Additionally, the driver's side pre-tensioner seat belt

system is also equipped with a lap pre-tensioner.

Both the retractor pre-tensioner and lap pre-ten-

sioner provide significant protection against injury

in an accident and increase the safety performance

of your vehicle.

No unauthorised changes should be made to

•

any components or wiring of the pre-

tensioner seat belt system. This is to prevent

accidental activation of the pre-tensioner seat

belt or damage to the pre-tensioner seat belt

operation. Tampering with the pre-tensioner

seat belt system may result in serious per-

sonal injury.

belts can be stored out of the way using the storage

holder shown in the illustration.

When the pre-tensioner seat belt system activates,

smoke is released and a loud noise may be heard.

The smoke is harmless, but care should be taken

not to inhale it as it may cause irritation and chok-

CHILD SAFETY

Unless checked and repaired, the Supplemental Re-

straint System (SRS) and/or pre-tensioner seat belt

may not function properly. It must be checked and

repaired.

Children need adults to help protect them.

They need to be properly restrained.

accident statistics, children are safer when prop-

erly restrained in the rear seat than in the front

seat.

In addition to the general information in this

manual, child safety information is available from

many other sources, including doctors, teachers,

government traffic safety offices, and community

organisations. Every child is different, so be sure to

learn the best way to transport your child.

This is especially important because your vehicle

has a supplemental restraint system (air bag sys-

tem) for the front passenger. (See “Supplemental

Restraint System (SRS)” later in this section.)

When selling your vehicle, we request that you in-

form the buyer about the pre-tensioner seat belt

system and guide the buyer to the appropriate sec-

tions in this Owner's Manual.

INFANTS

There are two basic types of child restraint system:

Infants up to at least 1 year old should be placed in

a rear-facing child restraint. You should choose a

child restraint that fits your vehicle and always fol-

low the manufacturer’s instructions for installation

and use.

Rear-facing child restraints

•

Front-facing child restraints

•

The proper restraint depends on the child’s size.

Generally, infants (up to about 1 year and less than

9 kg) should be placed in rear-facing child restraints.

Front-facing child restraints are available for chil-

dren who outgrow rear-facing child restraints and

are at least 1 year old.

SMALL CHILDREN

Children that are over 1 year old and weigh at least

9 kg can be placed in a front-facing child restraint.

Refer to the manufacturer’s instructions for mini-

mum and maximum weight and height recommen-

dations. You should choose a child restraint that fits

your vehicle and always follow the manufacturer’s

instructions for installation and use.

WARNING

Infants and children need special protection. 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 hip

bones. In an accident, an improperly fitting seat

belt could cause serious or fatal injury. Always use

appropriate child restraints.

LARGER CHILDREN

Children who are too large for a child restraint sys-

tem should be seated and restrained by the seat

belts that are provided. If the child's seating posi-

tion has a shoulder belt that fits close to the face or

neck, the use of a booster seat (commercially avail-

able) 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

A child restraint may be secured in the vehicle by

using either the ISOFIX child restraint system or with

the vehicle seat belt, see “Child restraints” later in

this section for more information.

NISSAN recommends that all pre-teens and chil-

dren be restrained in the rear seat. According to
