from side to side, and tug it forward to
make sure it is securely held in place.
6. Check that the retractor is in the auto-
matic locking mode by trying to pull more
belt out of the retractor. If you cannot pull
any more belt webbing out of the retrac-
tor, the retractor is in the automatic lock-
ing mode.
7. Check to make sure the child restraint is

Rear facing (Three-point type with
retractor, except Crew Cab models)
WARNING
Never install a rear facing child re-
straint in the front seating position
of crew cab models. Install a rear
facing child restraint in the rear seat
only. The force of the inflating air
bag could cause serious injury or kill
the child in the child restraint.
If so equipped, keep the passenger
supplemental air bag ON/OFF switch
turned ON unless a rear-facing child
restraint is used in the front seat. If
the switch is OFF, the air bag will not
inflate in a collision as designed.
Be
sure
to
turn
the
passenger
supplemental air bag ON/OFF switch
OFF when using a rear facing child
restraint in the front passenger seat.
If it is not OFF, the air bag may inflate
in a collision. The force of the rapidly
inflating air bag could cause serious
injury or kill the child in the child
restraint.
See
‘‘Passenger
supple-
mental air bag ON/OFF switch and
light’’ earlier in this section.
If the supplemental air bag warning
light located in the instrument panel
next to the speedometer comes on
when the passenger supplemental air
bag OFF indicator light is also illumi-
nated, something may be wrong with
the air bag system. Do not use a child
restraint in the front passenger seat
until the system is checked by your
NISSAN dealer.
The passenger three-point seat belt
is equipped with an automatic lock-
ing mode retractor which must be
used
when
installing
a
child
re-
straint.
