SEAT BELTS

Trang 28

쐌 Every person who drives or rides in

this vehicle should use a seat belt at

all times.

쐌 The seat belt should be properly

ad-justed 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.

쐌 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.

쐌 Position the lap belt as low and snug

as possible AROUND THE HIPS, NOT THE WAIST A lap belt worn too high could increase the risk of internal injuries in an accident.

쐌 Be sure the seat belt tongue is curely fastened to the proper buckle.

se-쐌 Do not wear the seat belt inside out

or twisted Doing so may reduce its effectiveness.

쐌 Do not allow more than one person

to use the same seat belt.

쐌 Never carry more people in the hicle than there are seat belts This vehicle has only two seating positions Never allow anyone to ride in the luggage area.

ve-쐌 If the seat belt warning light glows continuously while the ignition is turned ONwith all doors closed and all seat belts fastened, it may indicate a malfunction in the system Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer.

pre-tensioner seat belt system

compo-nents should be done by a NISSAN

dealer.

쐌 All seat belt assemblies, including

retractors and attaching hardware,

should be inspected after any

colli-sion by a NISSAN dealer NISSAN

recommends that all seat belt

as-semblies in use during a collision be replaced unless the collision was mi- nor and the belts show no damage and continue to operate properly.

Seat belt assemblies not in use ing a collision should also be inspected and replaced if either damage or improper operation is noted.

seat belts which are provided The seat belt may

not fit properly if the child is less than 4 feet 9

inches (142.5 cm) tall and weighs between 40

lbs (18 kg) and 80 lbs (36 kg) A booster seat

should be used to obtain proper seat belt fit

NISSAN recommends that a child be placed in a

commercially available booster seat if the

shoul-der belt in the child’s seating position fits close

to the face or neck or if the lap portion of the seat

belt goes across the abdomen The booster seat

should raise the child so that the shoulder belt is

properly positioned across the top, middle

por-tion of the shoulder and the lap belt is low on the

hips A booster seat can only be used in seating

positions that have a three-point type seat belt

The booster seat should fit the vehicle seat and

have a label certifying that it complies with

Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards or

Ca-nadian Motor Vehicle Safety Standards Once

the child has grown so the shoulder belt is no

longer on or near the face and neck, use the

shoulder belt without the booster seat

PREGNANT WOMEN

seat belts The seat belt should be worn snug,

and always position the lap belt as low as

possible around the hips, not the waist Place

the shoulder belt over your shoulder and across

your chest Never run the lap/shoulder belt overyour abdominal area Contact your doctor forspecific recommendations
