WHEN READING THE MANUAL

The inside pages of this manual contain

a minimum of 50% recycled ﬁbers,

including 10% post-consumer ﬁbers.

Your new NISSAN is the result of our dedication to

produce the finest in safe, reliable and economical

transportation. Your vehicle is the product of a suc-

cessful worldwide company that manufactures cars

and trucks in over 17 countries and distributes them

in 170 nations.

NISSAN vehicles are designed and manufactured

by Nissan Motor Co., Ltd. which was founded in

Tokyo, Japan in 1933, and NISSAN affiliates world-

wide, collectively growing to become the fifth largest

automaker in the world. In addition to cars and

trucks, NISSAN also makes forklift trucks, marine

engines, boats and other diversified products.

NISSAN has made a substantial and growing in-

vestment in North America. NISSAN’s commitment

is over $6 billion dollars in capital investments in

facilities across the continent. Some of the facilities

include the Nissan Manufacturing facility in Smyrna,

Tennessee, vehicle styling design at Nissan Design

America, Inc. in San Diego, California, and engineer-

ing at Nissan Technical Center North America in

Farmington Hills, Michigan. Additionally, NISSAN

employs nearly 19,000 people throughout the

United States, Canada, and Mexico. An additional

60,000 people work for the 1,250 NISSAN and

INFINITI dealers across North America.

NISSAN is also a substantial contributor to the

Canadian economy. Nissan Canada Inc., its suppli-

ers and over 150 dealers employ approximately

4,500 people. These include company employees

and the staffs of NISSAN dealers all across Canada.

In addition, many Canadians work for companies

that supply NISSAN and NISSAN dealers with ma-

terials and services ranging from the operation of

port facilities and transportation services, to the

supply of lubricants, parts and accessories.

NISSAN pioneered the use of electronics and com-

puters in automobiles, and has led the industry in

improving both performance and fuel efficiency

through new engine designs and the use of syn-

thetic materials to reduce vehicle weight. The com-

pany has also developed ways to build quality into its

vehicles at each stage of the production process,

both through extensive use of automation and —

most importantly — through an awareness that

people are the central element in quality control.

From the time the parts arrived from our suppliers

until you took delivery of your new NISSAN, dozens

of checks were made to ensure that only the best job

was being done in producing and delivering your

vehicle. NISSAN also takes great care to ensure that

when you take your NISSAN to your dealer for

maintenance, the service technician will perform his

work according to the quality standards that have

been established by NISSAN.

Safety has also been built into your NISSAN. As you

know, seat belts are an integral part of the safety

systems that will help protect you and your passen-

gers in the event of a sudden stop or an accident.

We urge you to use the seat belts every time you

drive the vehicle.

The NISSAN story of growth and achievement re-

flects our major goal: to provide you, our customer,

with a vehicle that is built with quality and craftsman-

ship — a product that we can be proud to build and

you can be proud to own.

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 and adjust the seat properly. See

“Precautions on Seat Belt Usage” later

in this section.

FRONT MANUAL SEAT

FOLDING REAR SEAT

Interior trunk access

The trunk can be accessed from the rear seat for

loading and unloading, as shown.

s

1 Pull the knob in the trunk to release the rear

seatback.

s

2Fold down the rear seatback.

WARNING

●Never allow anyone to ride in the cargo

area or on the rear seat when it is in the

fold-down position. Use of these areas

by passengers without proper restraints

could result in serious injury in an acci-

dent or sudden stop.

●Properly secure all cargo with ropes or

straps to help prevent it from sliding or

shifting. Do not place cargo higher than

the seatbacks. In a sudden stop or col-

lision, unsecured cargo could cause

personal injury.

●When returning the seatbacks to the

upright position, be certain they are

completely secured. If they are not com-

pletely secured in the latched position,

passengers may be injured in an acci-

dent or sudden stop.

●Closely supervise children when they

are around cars to prevent them from

playing and becoming locked in the

trunk where they could be seriously in-

jured. Keep the car locked, with the rear

seatback and trunk lid securely latched

when not in use, and prevent children’s

access to car keys.

WRS0132

1-4 Seats, restraints and supplemental air bag systems

When using the fold down rear seatback, the rear

center seat belt retractor may lock up and prevent

folding down the seatback.

If the rear center seat belt retractor has inadvert-

ently locked up, push the seat belt webbing to-

ward the retractor as shown in the above illustra-

tion. This will unlock the seat belt retractor and

allow the rear seatback to fold down.

HEAD RESTRAINT ADJUSTMENT

To raise the head restraint, pull it up. To lower,

push and hold the lock knob and push the head

restraint down.

WARNING

Head restraints should be adjusted prop-

erly as they may provide significant pro-

tection against injury in an accident. Do

not remove them. Check the adjustment

after someone else uses the seat.

Adjust the head restraint so the center is level

with the center of your ears.

PRECAUTIONS ON

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT

SYSTEM

This Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) sec-

tion contains important information concerning

the driver and passenger supplemental front air

bags, supplemental side air bags and preten-

sioner seat belts.

Supplemental front impact air bag system:

This system can help cushion the impact force to

the face and chest of the driver and front passen-

ger in certain frontal collisions.

Supplemental side-impact air bag system

(if so equipped): This system can help cushion

the impact force to the chest area of the driver

and front passenger in certain side impact colli-

sions. The supplemental side air bag is designed

to inflate on the side where the vehicle is im-

pacted.

These supplemental restraint systems are de-

signed to the crash protection pro-supplement

vided by the driver and front passenger seat belts

and are for them. Seat beltsnot a substitute

should always be correctly worn and the driver

and front passenger seated a suitable distance

away from the steering wheel, instrument panel

and front door finishers. (See “Seat belts” later in

this section for instructions and precautions on

seat belt usage.)

The supplemental air bags operate only

when the ignition switch is in the ON or

START position.

After turning the ignition key to the ON

position, the supplemental air bag warning

light illuminates. The supplemental air bag

warning light will turn off after about 7

seconds if the system is operational.

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT

SYSTEM

1-6 Seats, restraints and supplemental air bag systems

WARNING

●The supplemental front air bags ordi-

narily will not inflate in the event of a

side impact, rear impact, rollover, or

lower severity frontal collision. Always

wear your seat belts to help reduce the

risk or severity of injury in various kinds

of accidents.

●The seat belts and the supplemental

front air bags are most effective when

you are sitting well back and upright in

the seat. The front air bags inflate with

great force. If you are unrestrained,

leaning forward, sitting sideways or out

of position in any way, you are at

greater risk of injury or death in a crash.

You may also receive serious or fatal

injuries from the supplemental front air

bag if you are up against it when it

inflates. Always sit back against the

seatback and as far away as practical

from the steering wheel or instrument

panel. Always use the seat belts.

●Keep hands on the outside of the steer-

ing wheel. Placing them inside the

steering wheel rim could increase the

risk that they are injured when the

supplemental front air bag inflates.

WARNING

●Never let children ride unrestrained or

extend their hands or face out of the

window. Do not attempt to hold them in

your lap or arms. Some examples of

dangerous riding positions are shown

in the illustrations.

ARS1042 ARS1043 ARS1044

Seats, restraints and supplemental air bag systems 1-9

WARNING

●Children may be severely injured or

killed when the supplemental front air

bags inflate if they are not properly re-

strained. Pre-teens and children should

be properly restrained in the rear seat, if

possible.

●Never install a rear-facing child re-

straint in the front seat. An inflating

supplemental front air bag could seri-

ously injure or kill your child. See “Child

restraints” later in this section for

details.

WARNING

Supplemental side air bag (if so

equipped):

●The supplemental side air bag ordi-

narily will not inflate in the event of a

frontal impact, rear impact or lower se-

verity side collision. Always wear your

seat belt to help reduce the risk or se-

verity of injury in various kinds of

accidents.

ARS1045 WRS0256 SSS0101

1-10 Seats, restraints and supplemental air bag systems

●The seat belts and the supplemental

side air bag are most effective when

you are sitting well back and upright in

the seat. The side air bag inflates with

great force. Do not allow anyone to

place their hand, leg or face near the

side air bag on the side of the seatback

of the front seat. Do not allow anyone

sitting in the front seat to extend their

hand out of the window or lean against

the door.

●When sitting in the rear seat, do not

hold onto the seatback of the front seat.

If the side air bag inflates, you may be

seriously injured. Be especially careful

with children, who should always be

properly restrained. Some examples of

dangerous riding positions are shown

in the illustrations.

●Do not use seat covers on the front

seatbacks. They may interfere with

supplemental side air bag inflation.

so equipped)

5. Diagnosis sensor unit

Supplemental front air bag system

The driver supplemental front air bag is located in

the center of the steering wheel. The passenger

supplemental front air bag is mounted in the

dashboard above the glove box.

These systems are designed to meet optional

certification requirements under U.S. regulations.

They are also permitted in Canada. The optional

certification allows the front air bags to be de-

signed to inflate somewhat less forcefully than

previously. However, all of the information,

cautions and warnings in this manual still

apply and must be followed.

The supplemental front air bag system is de-

signed to inflate in higher severity frontal colli-

sions, although it may inflate if the forces in an-

other type of collision are similar to those of a

higher severity frontal impact. It may not inflate in

certain frontal collisions. Vehicle damage (or lack

of it) is not always an indication of proper supple-

mental front air bag system operation.

SSS0162 WRS0135

1-12 Seats, restraints and supplemental air bag systems

●Work around and on the pre-tensioner

system should be done by a NISSAN

dealer. Installation of electrical equip-

ment should also be done by a NISSAN

dealer. Unauthorized electrical test

equipment and probing devices should

not be used on the pre-tensioner seat

belt system.

●If you need to dispose of the pre-

tensioner or scrap the vehicle, contact a

NISSAN dealer. Correct pre-tensioner

disposal procedures are set forth in the

appropriate NISSAN Service Manual.

Incorrect disposal procedures could

cause personal injury.

The front seat pre-tensioner seat belt system

activates in conjunction with the supplemental

front air bag. Working with the seat belt retractor,

it helps tighten the seat belt the instant the ve-

hicle becomes involved in certain types of colli-

sions, thereby restraining seat occupants.

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

retractor. These seat belts are used the same as

conventional seat belts.

When the pre-tensioner seat belt activates,

smoke is released and a loud noise may be heard.

This smoke is not harmful and does not indicate a

fire. Care should be taken not to inhale it, as it may

cause irritation and choking. Those with a history

of a breathing condition should get fresh air

promptly.

If any abnormality occurs in the pre-tensioner

system, the supplemental air bag warning

light will flash intermittently after the igni-

tion key is turned to the ON or START position. In

this case, the pre-tensioner seat belt will not

function properly. They must be checked and

repaired. Take your vehicle to the nearest

NISSAN dealer.

When selling your vehicle, we request that you

inform the buyer about the pre-tensioner seat belt

system and guide the buyer to the appropriate

sections in this Owner’s Manual. 1. SRS Air Bag Warning Labels

so equipped)

SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG

WARNING LABELS

Warning labels about the supplemental front air

bag and supplemental side air bag (if so

equipped) systems are placed in the vehicle as

shown in the illustation.

WRS0136

1-16 Seats, restraints and supplemental air bag systems

SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG

WARNING LIGHT

The supplemental air bag warning light,

displaying in the instrument panel, moni-

tors the circuits of the supplemental front air

bags, pre-tensioner seat belt and supplemental

side air bag (if so equipped) systems. The circuits

monitored by the supplemental air bag warning

light are the diagnosis sensor unit, crash zone

sensor, supplemental air bag modules, pre-

tensioner seat belts and all related wiring.

When the ignition key is in the ON or START

position, the supplemental air bag warning light

illuminates for about 7 seconds and then turns

off. This means the system is operational.

If any of the following conditions occur, the

supplemental front air bag, supplemental side air

bag and pre-tensioner seat belt systems need

servicing:

●The supplemental air bag warning light re-

mains on after approximately 7 seconds.

●The supplemental air bag warning light flashes

intermittently.

●The supplemental air bag warning light does

not come on at all.

Under these conditions, the supplemental front

air bag, supplemental side air bag or pre-

tensioner seat belt systems may not operate

properly. It must be checked and repaired. Take

your vehicle to the nearest NISSAN dealer.

WARNING

If the supplemental air bag warning light

is on, it could mean that the supplemental

front air bag or supplemental side air bag

system will not operate in an accident.

Repair and replacement procedure

The supplemental front air bags, pre-tensioner

seat belts and supplemental side air bags (if so

equipped) are designed to inflate on a one-time-

only basis. As a reminder, unless it is damaged,

the supplemental air bag warning light remains

illuminated after inflation has occurred. Repair

and replacement of these supplemental air bag

systems should be done only by a NISSAN

dealer.

When maintenance work is required on the ve-

hicle, the supplemental front air bags, supple-

mental side air bags (if so equipped), pre-

tensioner seat belts and related parts should be

pointed out to the person performing the mainte-

nance. The ignition key should always be in the

LOCK position when working under the hood or

inside the vehicle.

WARNING

●Once a supplemental front air bag or

supplemental side air bag has inflated,

the air bag module will not function

again and must be replaced. Addition-

ally, if any of the supplemental front air

bags inflate, the activated pre-

tensioner seat belts must also be re-

placed. The air bag module and pre-

tensioner seat belt system should be

replaced by a NISSAN dealer. The air

bag module and pre-tensioner seat belt

system cannot be repaired.

LRS0100

Seats, restraints and supplemental air bag systems 1-17

●The supplemental front air bag and

supplemental side air bag systems

should be inspected by a NISSAN

dealer if there is any damage to the

front end or side portion of the vehicle,

or replaced if the supplemental air bag

has inflated.

●If you need to dispose of the supple-

mental air bag, pre-tensioner seat belt

system or scrap the vehicle, contact a

NISSAN dealer. Correct supplemental

air bag and pre-tensioner seat belt sys-

tem disposal procedures are set forth in

the appropriate NISSAN Service

Manual. Incorrect disposal procedures

could cause personal injury. PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT

USAGE

If you are wearing your seat belt properly ad-

justed and you are sitting upright and well back in

your seat, 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 in-

cludes 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.

SSS0136

SEAT BELTS

1-18 Seats, restraints and supplemental air bag systems

WARNING

Infants and children need special protec-

tion. 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 fit-

ting seat belt could cause serious or fatal

injury. Always use appropriate child

restraints.

All U.S. states and Canadian provinces or terri-

tories require the use of approved child restraints

for infants and small children. See “Child Re-

straints” later in this section.

In addition, there are many types of child re-

straints available for larger children which should

be used for maximum protection.

NISSAN recommends that all pre-teens

and children be restrained in the rear seat.

According to accident statistics, children

are safer when properly restrained in the

rear seat than in the front seat. This is

especially important because your vehicle

has a supplemental restraint system (Air

bag system) for the front passenger. See

“Supplemental restraint system” earlier in

this section.

Infants and small children

NISSAN recommends that infants and small chil-

dren be placed in child restraints that comply with

Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards or Ca-

nadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards. You

should choose a child restraint that fits your ve-

hicle and always follow the manufacturer’s in-

structions for installation and use.

Larger children

Children who are too large for child restraints

should be seated and restrained by the seat belts

which are provided.

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 posi-

tioned across the top, middle portion of the

shoulder and the lap belt is low on the hips. The

booster seat should fit the vehicle seat and have

a label certifying that it complies with Federal

Motor Vehicle Safety Standards or Canadian Mo-

tor Vehicle Safety Standards. Once the child has

grown so the shoulder belt is no longer on or near

the face and neck, use the shoulder belt without

the booster seat.

WARNING

Never let a child stand or kneel on any

seat and do not allow a child in the cargo

areas while the vehicle is moving. The

child could be seriously injured or killed in

an accident or sudden stop.

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 pos-

sible around the hips, not the waist. 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. Check with your doctor for specific

recommendations.
