The Active Head Restraint moves forward utiliz-

ing the force that the seatback receives from theoccupant in a rear-end collision. The movementof the head restraint helps support the occu-pants head by reducing its backward movementand helping absorb some of the forces that maylead to whiplash-type injuries.

Active Head Restraints are effectivefor collisionsat low to medium speeds in which it is said thatwhiplash injuries occur most.

Active Head Restraints operate only in certain

rear-end collisions. After the collision, the headrestraints return to their original positions.

Properly adjust the Active Head Restraints asdescribed in this section.

Some child restraints include tworigid or webbing-mounted attachments that canbe connected to these loweranchors. For details,see LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers forCHildren) system later in this section.

If you do not have a LATCH compatible childrestraint, the vehicle seat belts can be used. SeeChild restraint installation using the seat beltslater in this section.In general, child restraintsarealso designed to be installed with a lap/shoulder

seat belt.

Several manufacturers offer child restraints forinfants and small children of various sizes. Whenselecting any child restraint, keep the followingpoints in mind:

Chooseonly a restraint with a label certifyingthat it complies with Federal Motor VehicleSafety Standard 213 or Canadian MotorVehicle Safety Standard 213.

Check thechild restraint in yourvehicle to besure it is compatible with the vehicles seatand seat belt system.

If the child restraint is compatible with yourvehicle, place your child in the child restraintand check the various adjustments to besure the child restraint is c ompatible with

your child. Choose a child restraint that isdesigned for your childs height and weight.Always follow all recommended procedures.

All U.S. states and Canadian provinces orterritories require that infants and smallchildren be restrained in an approved childrestraint at all times while the vehicle isbeing operated. Canadian law requires thetop tether strap on front-facing child re-straints be secured to the designated an-chor point on the vehicle.

CHILD RESTRAINT INSTALLATION

USING THE SEAT BELTS

WARNING

Even with the NISSAN Advanced AirBag System, never install a rear-facingchild restraint in the front passengerseat. Front air bags inflate with greatforce. A rear-facing child restraint couldbe struck by the front air bag in a crashand could seriously injure or kill your

child.

NISSAN recommends that child re-straints be installed in the rear seat.However, if you must install a front-facing child restraint in the front pas-senger seat, move the passenger seat

to the rearmost position. Also, be surethe front passenger air bag status lightis illuminated to indicate the passengerair bag is OFF. See Front passenger airbag and status light later in this sec-tion for details.

The three-point seat belt in your vehicleis equipped with an Automatic LockingRetractor (ALR) which must be usedwhen installing a child restraint.

Failure to use the ALR mode will resultin the child restraint not being properlysecured. The restraint could tip over orotherwise be unsecured and cause in-jury to the child in a sudden stop orcollision. Also, it can change the opera-tion of the front passenger air bag. SeeFront passenger air bag and statuslight later in this section.

A child restraint with a top tether strapshould not be used in the front passen-

ger seat.

When a front air bag inflates, a fairly loud noisemay be heard, followed by the release of smoke.Thissmoke is not harmful and does not indicate afire.Careshould be takento not inhale it,as it maycause irritation and choking. Those with a historyof a breathing condition should get fresh airpromptly.

Front air bags, along with the use of seat belts,help to cushion the impact force on the face andchest of the front occupants. They can help savelives and reduce serious injuries. However, aninflating front air bag may cause facial abrasionsor other injuries. Front air bags do not providerestraint to the lower body.

Even with NISSAN air bags, seat belts should becorrectly worn and the driver and passengerseated upright as far as practical away from the

steering wheel or instrument panel. The front airbags inflate quickly in order to help protect thefront occupants. Because of this, the force of the

front air bag inflating can increase the risk ofinjury if the occupant is too close to,or is against,the front air bag module during inflation.

The front air bags deflate quickly after a collision.

The front air bags operate only when the
