7. Check to make sure the child restraint is properly secured prior to each use. If the seat belt is not locked, repeat steps 3 through 6. After the child restraint is removed and the seat belt is fully retracted, the automatic locking mode (child restraint mode) is canceled. Rear-facing (Three-point type with retractor, except Crew Cab models) WARNING WRS0380 ● 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 supplemental 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 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. ● The passenger three-point seat belt is equipped with an automatic locking mode retractor which must be used when installing a child restraint. Front Facing - step 5 5. Before placing the child in the child restraint, use force to tilt the child restraint from side to side, and tug it for ward to make sure that it is securely held in place. It should not move more than 1 inch. 6. Check that the retractor is in the automatic locking mode by trying to pull more seat belt out of the retractor. If you cannot pull any more belt webbing out of the retractor, the seat belt is in the automatic locking mode. ● Never install a rear facing child restraint 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. 1-46 Safety-Seats, seat belts and supplemental air bags
