Operation Manual

Child restraint anchorages are de-
signed to withstand only those loads
imposed by correctly fitted child re-
straints. Under no circumstances are
they to be used to attach adult seat
belts, or other items or equipment to
the vehicle. Doing so could damage
the child restraint anchorages. The
child restraint will not be properly in-
stalled using the damaged anchorage,
and a child could be seriously injured
or killed in a collision.
Top tether anchor point locations:
Anchor points are located on the back side of the
seatbacks.
The child restraint top tether strap must be used
when installing child restraints with the LATCH
lower anchor attachments or seat belts. For ad-
ditional information, refer to “Installing top tether
strap” in this section.
If you have any questions when installing a
top tether strap, consult a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer for details.
REAR-FACING CHILD RESTRAINT
INSTALLATION USING LATCH
For additional information, refer to all Warnings
and Cautions in “Child safety” and “Child re-
straints” in this section before installing a child
restraint.
Do not use the lower anchors if the combined
weight of the child and the child restraint exceeds
65 lbs (29.5 kg). If the combined weight of the
child and the child restraint is greater than 65 lbs
(29.5 kg), use the vehicle’s seat belt (not the
lower anchors) to install the child restraint. Be
sure to follow the child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions for installation.
Follow these steps to install a rear-facing child
restraint using the LATCH system:
1. Position the child restraint on the seat. Always
follow the child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions.
