¼ The three-point belt in your vehicle is equipped with an automatic locking mode retractor which must be used when installing a child restraint. ¼ Failure to use the retractor's locking mode will result in the child restraint not being properly secured. The restraint could tip over or otherwise be unsecured and cause injury to the child in a sudden stop or collision. ¼ 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. ¼ 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 illuminated, something may be wrong with the supplemental air bag system. Do not use a child restraint in the front passenger seat until the system is checked by your NISSAN dealer. WARNING When installing a rear facing child restraint, the passenger supplemental air bag must be disabled using the ON/OFF switch. See ''Passenger supplemental air bag ON/OFF switch and light'' earlier in this section. ARS1093 If you choose to install a child restraint in the front seat, follow these steps: 1. Position the child restraint on the front passenger seat. Always follow the restraint manufacturer's instructions. 1-30 Seats, restraints and supplemental air bag systems
