switch is in the “ON” position.

This system can help cushion the impact force

to the head of the driver and passengers in

front and rear outboard seating positions in

certain side-impact or rollover collisions. In a

side-impact, the supplemental curtain side-

impact and rollover air bag is designed to

inflate on the side where the vehicle is im-

pacted. In a rollover, the supplemental curtain

side-impact and rollover air bags on both sides

are designed to inflate. Under the both side-

impact and rollover situations, the supplemen-

tal curtain side-impact and rollover air bags will

remain inflated for a short period of time.

When the ignition switch is in the “ON”

position, the SRS air bag warning light

illuminates for about 7 seconds and then

turns off. This indicates that the SRS air bag

system is operational. (See “SRS air bag

warning light” (P.1-36).)

Supplemental side-impact air bag sys-

tem (if equipped)

This system can help cushion the impact force

to the chest area of the driver and front

passenger in certain side-impact collisions.

The supplemental side-impact air bag is de-

signed to inflate on the side where the vehicle

is impacted.

The SRS is designed to supplement the acci-

dent protection provided by the driver’s and

passenger’s seat belts and is not designed to

substitute for them. The SRS can help save

lives and reduce serious injuries. However,

inflating air bags may cause abrasions or other

injuries. Air bags do not provide protection to

the lower body. Seat belts should always be

correctly worn and the occupants should al-

ways be seated a suitable distance away from

the steering wheel and instrument panel. (See

“Seat belts” (P.1-10).) The air bags inflate quickly

in order to help protect the occupants. The

force of the air bags inflating can increase the

risk of injury if the occupants are too close to,

1-32 Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

.

Observe the following precautions for a

model with Advanced Air Bag System:

— The front passenger air bag will not

inflate if the front passenger air bag

status light is lit.

— The driver and front passenger seat

belt buckles are equipped with sen-

sors that detect if the seat belts are

fastened. The advanced air bag sys-

tem monitors the severity of a colli-

sion and seat belt usage then inflates

the air bags. Failure to properly wear

seat belts can increase the risk or

severity of injury in an accident.

SSS0131A

— The front passenger seat is equipped

with occupant classification sensors

(weight sensors) that turn the front

passenger air bag OFF under some

conditions. These sensors are only

used in this seat. Failure to be prop-

erly seated and wearing the seat belt

can increase the risk or severity of

injury in an accident. (See “Supple-

mental front-impact air bag system

(with Advanced Air Bag System)” (P.1-

39).)

position in any way, you and your pas-

sengers are at greater risk of injury or

death in an accident. You and your

passengers may also receive serious or

fatal injuries from the supplemental

front-impact air bag if you are up against

it when it inflates. Always sit back against

the seatback and as far away as practical

from the steering wheel or instrument

panel. Always use the seat belts.

Keep hands on the outside of the steering

wheel. Placing them inside the steering

wheel rim could increase the risk of injury

if the supplemental front air bag inflates.

WARNING:

.

The supplemental front-impact air bags

ordinarily will not inflate in the event of a

side impact, rear impact, rollover, or low-

er severity frontal collision. Always wear

the seat belts to help reduce the risk or

severity of injury in accidents.

The seat belts and the supplemental

front-impact air bags are most effective

when you are sitting well back and up-

right in the seat. The front-impact air

bags inflate with great force. If you and

your passengers are unrestrained, lean-

ing forward, sitting sideways, or out of

The supplemental curtain side-impact

and rollover air bags ordinarily will not

inflate in the event of a front impact, rear

impact, or lower severity side collision.

Always wear the seat belts to help reduce

the risk or severity of injury in accidents

(for Korea).

The seat belts and the supplemental

side-impact air bags, supplemental cur-

tain side-impact air bags and supple-

mental curtain side-impact and rollover

may be seriously injured. Be especially

careful with children, who should always

be properly restrained.

Do not use seat covers on the front

seatbacks. They may interfere with the

supplemental side-impact air bag infla-

tions.

.

Pre-tensioner seat belt system

The pre-tensioner seat belt system activates in

conjunction with the supplemental front-im-

pact air bag. Working with the seat belt

retractor and anchor, it helps tighten the seat

belt the instant the vehicle becomes involved in

certain types of collisions, helping to restrain

front seat occupants. (See “Pre-tensioner seat

belt system” (P.1-49).)

damage the seat or occupant classifica-

tion sensors (weight sensors). This can

affect the operation of the air bag system

and result in serious personal injury.

Do not use water or acidic cleaners (hot

steam cleaners) on the seat. This can

damage the seat or occupant classifica-

tion sensors. This can also affect the

operation of the air bag system and

result in serious personal injury.

Removing or modifying the front passen-

ger seat may affect the function of the air

injury.

Modifying or tampering with the front

passenger seat may result in serious

personal injury. For example, do not

change the front seats by placing materi-

al on the seat cushion or by installing

additional trim material, such as seat

covers, on the seat that is not specifically

WARNING:

This vehicle is equipped with Advanced Air Bag

System for the driver and front passenger

seats. The driver’s supplemental front-impact

air bag is located at the center of the steering

wheel. The passenger’s supplemental front-

impact air bag is located at the instrument

panel above the glove box.

The supplemental front-impact air bag system

is designed to inflate in higher severity frontal

collisions, although it may inflate if the forces in

another type of collision are similar to those of

a higher severity frontal impact. It may not

inflate in certain frontal collisions. Vehicle

damage (or lack of it) is not always an indica-

tion of proper supplemental front-impact air

bag system operation.

The Advanced Air Bag System has dual stage

air bag inflators. The system monitors informa-

tion from the crash zone sensor, the Air bag

Control Unit (ACU), seat belt buckle sensors and

the occupant classification sensors (weight

sensors). Inflator operation is based on the

severity of a collision and seat belt usage for

the driver. For the front passenger, the occu-

pant classification sensors are also monitored.

Based on information from the sensors, only

To ensure proper operation of the passen-

ger’s Advanced Air Bag System, observe the

following items.

.

Do not allow a passenger in the rear seat

to push or pull on the seatback pocket.

Do not place heavy loads heavier than 4

kg (9.1 lbs) on the seatback, head re-

straint or in the seatback pocket.

.

Do not store luggage behind the seat that

can press into the seatback.

Be sure that the front passenger seat

does not contact the rear seat, instru-

ment panel, etc., or the head restraint

does not contact the roof.

.

Confirm the operating condition with the

front passenger air bag status light.

If you notice that the front passenger air

bag status light is not operating in

accordance with the above description,

take your vehicle to a NISSAN dealer to

check the passenger seat Advanced Air

one front air bag may inflate in

a crash,

depending on the crash severity and whether

the front occupants are belted or unbelted.

Additionally, the front passenger’s air bag may

be automatically turned OFF under some con-

ditions, depending on the information provided

by the occupant classification sensors. If the

front passenger air bag is OFF, the front

passenger air bag status light will be illumi-

nated. One front air bag inflating does not

indicate improper performance of the system. If

you have any questions about the performance

of your air bag system, please contact NISSAN

or a NISSAN dealer.

Supplemental front air bags, along with the use

of seat belts, help to cushion the impact force

on the head and chest of the front occupants.

They can help save lives and reduce serious

injuries. However, an inflating front air bag may

cause facial abrasions or other injuries. Front

air bags do not provide restraint to the lower

body.

Even with Advanced Air Bag System, seat belts

should be correctly worn and the driver and

passenger seated upright as far as practical

away from the steering wheel or instrument

panel. The supplemental front-impact air bags

inflate quickly in order to help protect the front

occupants. Because of this, the force of the

front air bag inflating can increase the risk of

injury if the occupant is too close to, or is

against, the air bag module during inflation.

The air bag will deflate quickly after a collision.

The front passenger seat is equipped with the

occupant classification sensors (weight sensor)

that turn the front passenger air bag on or off

depending on the weight applied to the front

passenger seat. The status of the front pas-

senger air bag (ON or OFF) is indicated by the

front passenger air bag status light

which is located on the instrument panel.

After the ignition switch is placed in the “ON”

position, the front passenger air bag status

light on the instrument panel illuminates for

about 7 seconds and then turns off or remains

illuminated depending on the front passenger

seat occupied status. The light operates as

Front passenger seat adult occupants who are

properly seated and using the seat belt as

outlined in this manual should not cause the

passenger’s air bag to be automatically turned

OFF. For small adults, it may be turned OFF,

however, if the occupant does not sit on the

seat properly (for example, by not sitting up-

right, by sitting on an edge of the seat, or by

otherwise being out of position), this could

cause the sensors to turn the air bag OFF.

Always be sure to be seated and wearing the

seat belt properly for the most effective pro-

tection by the seat belt and supplemental air

bag.

a

crash. However, heavy objects

placed on the seat could result in air bag

inflation, because of the object being detected

by the occupant classification sensors. Other

conditions could also result in air bag inflation,

such as if a child is standing on the seat, or if

two children are on the seat, contrary to the

instructions in this manual. Always be sure that

you and all vehicle occupants are seated and

restrained properly.

Front passenger air bag:

Using the front passenger air bag status light,

you can monitor when the front passenger air

bag is automatically turned OFF.

If an adult occupant is in the seat but the front

passenger air bag status light is illuminated

(indicating that the air bag is OFF), it could be

that the person is a small adult, or is not sitting

on the seat properly.

If a child restraint must be used in the front

seat, the front passenger air bag status light

may or may not be illuminated, depending on

the size of the child and the type of child

restraint being used. If the air bag status light is

not illuminated (indicating that the air bag

might inflate in a crash), it could be that the

child restraint or seat belt is not being used

properly. Make sure that the child restraint is

installed properly, the seat belt is used properly

and the occupant is positioned properly. If the

air bag status light is still not illuminated,

reposition the occupant or child restraint in a

rear seat.

The front passenger air bag is designed to

automatically turn OFF when the vehicle is

operated under some conditions as described

below. If the front passenger air bag is OFF, it

will not inflate in a crash. The driver’s air bag

and other air bags in your vehicle are not part

of this system.

The purpose of this system is to help reduce

the risk of injury or death from an inflating air

bag to certain front passenger seat occupants,

such as children, by requiring the air bag to be

automatically turned OFF.

The occupant classification sensors (weight

sensors) are on the seat frame under the front

passenger’s seat and are designed to detect an

occupant and objects on the seat. For example,

if a child is in the front passenger seat, the

Advanced Air Bag System is designed to turn

the front passenger air bag OFF. Also, if a child

restraint is on the seat, the occupant classifica-

tion sensors can detect it and cause the air bag

to turn OFF.

NISSAN recommends that pre-teens and chil-

dren be properly restrained in

a rear seat.

NISSAN also recommends that appropriate

child restraints and booster seats be properly

installed in a rear seat. If this is not possible, the

occupant classification sensors are designed to

operate as described above to turn the front

passenger’s air bag OFF for specified child

restraints. Failing to properly secure child

restrains and to use the automatic locking

mode (child restraint mode) (if equipped) may

allow the restraint to tip or move in an accident

or sudden stop. This can also result in the

passenger’s air bag inflating in a crash instead

of being OFF. (See “Child restraints” (P.1-15) for

proper use and installation.)

If the front passenger’s seat is not occupied,

the passenger’s air bag is designed not to

SRS AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT CONDI-

TIONS

The SRS air bags activate in the event of a front

or side impact in which the vehicle occupants

may be severely injured even if they are

wearing the seat belts properly.

They may not activate when the crash energy

is absorbed and/or distributed by the vehicle

body. Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not

always an indication of proper SRS air bag

system operation.

Work around or on the pre-tensioner seat

belt system should be done by a NISSAN

dealer. The SRS wiring should not be

modified or disconnected. Unauthorized

electrical test equipment and probing

devices should not be used on the pre-

tensioner seat belt system.

If you need to dispose of the pre-ten-

sioner seat belt system, or scrap the

vehicle, contact a NISSAN dealer. Correct

pre-tensioner disposal procedures are

set forth in the appropriate NISSAN Ser-

vice Manual. Incorrect disposal proce-

dures could cause personal injury.

a NISSAN dealer.

Correct disposal procedures are set forth

in the appropriate NISSAN Service Man-

ual. Incorrect disposal procedures could

cause personal injury.

The air bags and pre-tensioner seat belts are

designed to activate on a one-time-only basis.

As a reminder, unless the SRS air bag warning

light is damaged, the SRS air bag warning light

remains illuminated after inflation has oc-

curred. The repair and replacement of the SRS

should be done only by a NISSAN dealer.

When maintenance work is required on the

vehicle, information about the air bags, pre-

tensioner seat belts and related parts should

be pointed out to the person performing the

maintenance. The ignition switch should al-

ways be in the “LOCK” position when working

under the hood or inside the vehicle.

JVR0160X

The pre-tensioner is encased with the front

seat belt’s retractor and anchor. These seat

belts are used the same as conventional seat

belts.

When the pre-tensioner seat belt activates, a

fairly loud noise may be heard, followed by the

release of smoke. This smoke is not harmful

and does not indicate a fire. Care should be

taken not to inhale it, as it may cause irritation

and choking. Those with a history of a breath-

ing condition should get fresh air promptly.

WARNING:

.

The pre-tensioner seat belt cannot be

reused after activation. It must be re-

placed together with the retractor and

buckle as a unit.

REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT PROCE-

DURE

If the vehicle becomes involved in

a

collision but the pre-tensioner is not

activated, be sure to have the pre-ten-

sioner system checked and, if necessary,

replaced by a NISSAN dealer.

WARNING:

.

Once the air bags have been inflated, the

air bag modules will not function and

must be replaced. The air bag modules

must be replaced by a NISSAN dealer. The

inflated air bag modules cannot be re-

paired.

The air bag systems should be inspected

by a NISSAN dealer if there is any damage

to the front end portion of the vehicle.

.

No unauthorized changes should be

made to any components or wiring of

the pre-tensioner seat belt system. This

is to prevent accidental activation of the

pre-tensioner seat belt or damage to the

pre-tensioner seat belt system.
