SEAT BELTS ARS1101 ARS1100 ARS1103 PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT USAGE Your chances of being injured in an accident and/or the severity of injury may be greatly reduced if you are wearing your seat belt and it is properly adjusted. 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 may specify that seat belts be worn at all times when a vehicle is being driven. WARNING ● Every person who drives or rides in this vehicle should use a seat belt at all times. Children should be properly restrained and, if appropriate, in child restraints. ● The 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 run 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 as possible AROUND THE HIPS, NOT THE WAIST. A lap belt worn too high could increase the risk of internal injuries in an accident. Seats, restraints and supplemental air bag systems 1-17
