NISSAN 2010 Xterra - Manual (Page 31)

● Properly secure all cargo with ropes or
straps to help prevent it from sliding or
shifting. In a sudden stop or collision,
unsecured cargo could cause personal
injury.
● When returning the seatbacks to the
upright position, be certain they are
completely secured. If they are not com-
pletely secured in the latched position,
passengers may be injured in an acci-
dent or sudden stop.
● If the seat cushions are removed for any
reason, they should be securely stored
to prevent them from causing injury to
passengers or damage to the vehicle in
case of sudden braking or an accident.
PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT
USAGE
If you are wearing your seat belt properly ad-
justed and you are sitting upright and well back in
your seat with both feet on the floor, your chances
of being injured or killed in an accident and/or the
severity of injury may be greatly reduced.
NISSAN strongly encourages you and all of your
passengers to buckle up every time you drive,
even if your seating position includes a supple-
mental air bag.
Most U.S. states and Canadian provinces
or territories specify that seat belts be worn
at all times when a vehicle is being driven.
