SEAT BELT EXTENDERS
If, because of body size or driving position,
it is not possible to properly fit the lap-
shoulder belt and fasten it, an extender is
available which is compatible with the in-
stalled seat belts. The extender adds ap-
proximately 8 inches (200 mm) of length
and may be used for either the driver or right
passenger seating position. See an autho-
rized NISSAN dealer for assistance if the
extender is required.
WARNING
Only NISSAN belt extenders, made
by the same company which made
the original equipment belts, should
be used with NISSAN belts.
Persons who can use the standard
seat belt should not use an extender.
Such unnecessary use could result
in
serious
personal
injury
in
the
event of an accident.
SEAT BELT MAINTENANCE
To clean the seat belt webbings,
apply
a mild soap solution or any solution rec-
ommended
for
cleaning
upholstery
or
carpets. Then brush, wipe with a cloth
and allow it to dry in the shade. Do not
allow the seat belts to retract until they
are completely dry.
If dirt builds up in the shoulder belt
guide
of the seat belt anchors, the seat
belts may retract slowly. Wipe the shoul-
der belt guide with a clean, dry cloth.
Periodically check to see that the seat
belt and the metal components,
such
as buckles, tongues, retractors, flexible
wires and anchors, work properly. If loose
parts, deterioration, cuts or other damage
on the webbing is found, the entire seat
belt assembly should be replaced.
WARNING
Infants and small children should
always be placed in an appropriate
child restraint while riding in the ve-
hicle. Failure to use a child restraint
can result in serious injury or death.
Children and infants should never be
carried on your lap. It is not possible
for even the strongest adult to resist
the forces of a severe accident. The
child could be crushed between the
adult and parts of the vehicle. Also,
do not put the same seat belt around
both your child and yourself.
