These supplemental restraint systems are de- signed to supplement the crash protection provided by the driver and passenger seat belts and are not a substitute for them. Seat belts should always be correctly worn and the occu- pant seated a suitable distance away from the steering wheel, instrument panel, door finishers and side roof rails. (See “Seat belts” earlier in this section for instructions and precautions on seat belt usage.) After turning the ignition switch to the ON position, the supplemental air bag warning light illuminates. The supplemental air bag warning light will turn off after about 7 seconds if the systems are operational. SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM PRECAUTIONS ON SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM This Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) sec- tion contains important information concerning the driver and passenger front impact supple- mental air bags, front seat side-impact supple- mental air bags, curtain side-impact and rollover air bags and front seat pre-tensioner seat belts. Supplemental front impact air bag system: This system can help cushion the impact force to the face and chest of the driver and front passenger in certain frontal collisions. Supplemental side-impact air bag system: This system can help cushion the impact force to the chest area of the driver and front passenger in certain side impact collisions. The front seat side-impact supplemental air bags are designed to inflate on the side where the vehicle is impacted. Supplemental curtain side-impact and roll- over air bag system: This system can help cushion the impact force to the head of occu- pants in front and rear outboard seating posi- tions in certain side impact or rollover collisions. In a side impact, the curtain air bags are de- signed to inflate on the side where the vehicle is impacted. In a rollover, both curtain air bags are designed to inflate and remain inflated for a while. Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system 1-39 墌 05.4.8/Z50-D/V5.0 墍 from the steering wheel or instru- ment panel. Always use the seat belts. 쐌 The driver and front passenger seat belt buckles are equipped with sen- sors that detect if the seat belts are fastened. The air bag system moni- tors the severity of a collision and then inflates the air bags based on belt usage. Failure to properly wear seat belts can increase the risk or severity of injury in an accident. 쐌 Keep hands on the outside of the steering wheel. Placing them inside the steering wheel rim could increase the risk that they are injured when the supplemental front air bag in- flates. 쐌 Never let children ride unrestrained or extend their hands or face out of the window. Do not attempt to hold them in your lap or arms. Some ex- amples of dangerous riding positions are shown in the previous illustra- tions. Pre-teens and children should WARNING 쐌 The supplemental front air bags ordi- narily will not inflate in the event of a side impact, rear impact, rollover, or lower severity frontal collision. Al- ways wear your seat belts to help reduce the risk or severity of injury in various kinds of accidents. 쐌 The seat belts and the supplemental front air bags are most effective SSS0131B when you are sitting well back and upright in the seat. Supplemental front air bags inflate with great force. If you are unrestrained, leaning for- ward, sitting sideways or out of posi- tion in any way, you are at greater risk of injury or death in a crash. You may also receive serious or fatal in- juries from the supplemental front air bag if you are up against it when it inflates. Always sit back against the seatback and as far away as practical 1-40 Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system 墌 05.4.8/Z50-D/V5.0 墍 be properly restrained in the rear seat, if possible. 쐌 Children may be severely injured or killed when the supplemental front air bags, side air bags or curtain side-impact and rollover air bags in- flate if they are not properly re- strained. Pre-teens and children should be properly restrained in the rear seat, if possible. 쐌 Also, never install a rear facing child restraint in the front seat. An inflating supplemental front air bag could SSS0132B SSS0006 seriously injure or kill your child. For additional information, see “Child re- straints” earlier in this section.

These systems are designed to meet optional certification re- quirements under U.S. regulations. They are also permitted in Canada. The optional certification allows front air bags to be designed to inflate somewhat less forcefully than previously. How- ever, all of the information, cautions and warnings in this manual still apply and must be followed. The front air bags are designed to inflate in higher severity frontal collisions, although they may inflate if the forces in another type of collision are similar to those of a higher severity frontal impact. They may not inflate in certain frontal collisions. Vehicle dam- age (or lack of it) is not always an indication of proper supplemental air bag operation. The supplemental air bag system has dual stage inflators for both the driver and passenger air bags. The system monitors information from the crash zone sensor, the diagnosis sensor unit and seat belt buckle sensors that detect if the seat belts are fastened. Inflator operation is based on the severity of a collision and whether the seat belts are being used. Only one front air bag may inflate in a crash, depending on the crash sever- ity and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted. This does not indicate improper per- formance of the system. If you have any ques- tions about the performance of your air bag system, contact a NISSAN dealer. position, the supplemental air bag warning light illuminates. The supplemental air bag warning light will turn off after about 7 seconds if the system is operational. When the supplemental front air bag inflates, a fairly loud noise may be heard, followed by 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 breathing condition should get fresh air promptly. Supplemental front air bags, along with the use of seat belts, helps to cushion the impact force on the face 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. The seat belts should be correctly worn and the driver and passenger seated upright as far as practical away from the steering wheel or instru- ment panel. The supplemental front 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 the collision is over. After turning the ignition switch to the ON WARNING 쐌 Do not place any objects on the steering wheel pad or on the instru- ment panel. Also, do not place any objects between any occupant and the steering wheel or instrument panel. Such objects may become dangerous projectiles and cause in- jury if the supplemental front air bag inflates. 쐌 Immediately after inflation, several front air bag system components will be hot. Do not touch them; you may severely burn yourself. 쐌 No unauthorized changes should be made to any components or wiring of the supplemental air bag system. This is to prevent accidental inflation of the air bag or damage to the air bag system.

When selling your vehicle, we request that you inform the buyer about the supplemental front air bag system and guide the buyer to the appro- priate sections in this Owner’s Manual. 쐌 Do not make unauthorized changes to your vehicle’s electrical system, suspension system or front end structure. This could affect proper operation of the supplemental air bag system. 쐌 Tampering with the supplemental front air bag system may result in serious personal injury. Tampering includes changes to the steering wheel and the instrument panel as- sembly by placing material over the steering wheel pad and above the instrument panel or by installing ad- ditional trim material around the air bag system. 쐌 Work around and on the supplemen- tal front air bag system should be done by a NISSAN dealer. Installa- tion of electrical equipment should also be done by a NISSAN dealer. The yellow and orange Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) wiring and connectors should not be modified or disconnected. Unauthorized electri SSS0190 Supplemental side air bag and curtain side-impact and rollover air bag systems The supplemental side air bags are located in the outside of the seatback of the front seats. The supplemental curtain side-impact and roll- over air bags are located in the side roof rails. These systems are designed to meet voluntary guidelines to help reduce the risk of injury to out-of-position occupants. However, all of the information, cautions and warnings in this manual still apply and must be followed. The supplemental side air bags and curtain side-impact and rollover air bags are designed to inflate in higher severity side collisions on the 1-46 Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system 墌 05.4.8/Z50-D/V5.0 墍 side where the vehicle is impacted, although they may inflate if the forces in another type of collision are similar to those of a higher severity side impact. They are designed to inflate on the side where the vehicle is impacted. They may not inflate in certain side collisions. Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an indication of proper supplemental side air bag and curtain side- impact and rollover air bag operation. Curtain side-impact and rollover air bags are also designed to inflate in certain types of roll- over collisions or near rollovers. When the supplemental side air bag and curtain side-impact/rollover air bag inflate, a fairly loud noise may be heard, followed by 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 breathing condition should get fresh air promptly. Supplemental side air bags, along with the use of seat belts, help to cushion the impact force on the chest of the front occupants. Curtain side- impact and rollover air bags help to cushion the impact force to the head of occupants in the front and rear outboard seating positions. They can help save lives and reduce serious injuries. However, an inflating side air bag and curtain side-impact/rollover air bag may cause abra- sions or other injuries. Supplemental side air bags and curtain side-impact and rollover air bags do not provide restraint to the lower body. The seat belts should be correctly worn and the driver and passenger seated upright as far as practical away from the side air bag. Rear seat passengers should be seated as far away as practical from the door finishers and side roof rails. The side air bags and curtain side-impact and rollover air bags inflate quickly in order to help protect the front occupants. Because of this, the force of the side air bag and curtain side-impact/rollover air bag inflating can in- crease the risk of injury if the occupant is too close to, or is against, these air bag modules during inflation. The side air bag will deflate quickly after the collision is over. The curtain side-impact and rollover air bags will remain inflated for a while. After turning the ignition switch to the ON position, the supplemental air bag warning light illuminates. The air bag warning light will turn off after about 7 seconds if the systems are operational. WARNING 쐌 Do not place any objects near the seatback of the front seats. Also, do not place any objects (an umbrella, bag, etc.) between the front door fin- isher and the front seat. Such objects may become dangerous projectiles and cause injury if the side air bag inflates. 쐌 Right after inflation, several side air bag and curtain side-impact and roll- over air bag system components will be hot. Do not touch them; you may severely burn yourself. 쐌 No unauthorized changes should be made to any components or wiring of the side air bag and curtain side- impact/rollover air bag system. This is to prevent accidental inflation of the side air bag and curtain side- impact/rollover air bag or damage to the side air bag and curtain side- impact/rollover air bag system. 쐌 Do not make unauthorized changes to your vehicle’s electrical system, suspension system or side panel.

For example, do not change the front seats by placing material near the seatback or by in- stalling additional trim material, such as seat covers, around the side air bag. 쐌 Work around and on the side air bag and curtain side-impact/rollover air bag system should be done by a NISSAN dealer. Installation of elec- trical equipment should also be done by a NISSAN dealer. The SRS wiring harnesses* should not be modified or disconnected. Unauthorized electri- cal test equipment and probing de- vices should not be used on the side air bag system. * The SRS wiring harnesses are cov- ered with yellow and orange insula- tion either just before the harness connectors or over the complete har- ness for easy identification. When selling your vehicle, we request that you inform the buyer about the side air bag and curtain side-impact/rollover air bag system and guide the buyer to the appropriate sections in this Owner’s Manual. Pre-tensioner seat belt system (For front seats) WARNING 쐌 The pre-tensioner seat belt cannot be reused after activation. It must be replaced together with the retractor and buckle as a unit. 쐌 If the vehicle becomes involved in a frontal collision but the pre-tensioner is not activated, be sure to have the pre-tensioner system checked and, if necessary, replaced by a NISSAN dealer. 쐌 No unauthorized changes should be made to any components or wiring of the pre-tensioner seat belt system. This is to prevent accidental activa- tion of the pre-tensioner seat belt or damage to the pre-tensioner seat belt operation. Tampering with the pre-tensioner seat belt system may result in serious personal injury. 쐌 Work around and on the pre- tensioner seat belt system should be done by a NISSAN dealer. Installa- tion of electrical equipment should also be done by a NISSAN dealer. Unauthorized electrical test equip- ment and probing devices should not be used on the pre-tensioner seat belt system. 쐌 If you need to dispose of the pre- tensioner or scrap the vehicle, con- tact a NISSAN dealer. Correct pre- tensioner disposal procedures are set forth in the appropriate NISSAN Service Manual. Incorrect disposal procedures could cause personal injury. The front seat pre-tensioner seat belt system activates in conjunction with the supplemental front air bag system. Working with the seat belt retractor, it helps tighten the seat belt when the vehicle becomes involved in certain types of 1-48 Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system 墌 05.4.8/Z50-D/V5.0 墍 collisions, helping to restrain front seat occu- pants. Also, the front seat pre-tensioner seat belt sys- tem activates in conjunction with the supple- mental side-impact/rollover air bag system. Working with the seat belt retractor, it helps tighten the seat belt when the vehicle becomes involved in certain types of rollover collisions or rear rollovers. The pre-tensioner is encased with the seat belt’s retractor. These seat belts are used the same as conventional seat belts. When the pre-tensioner seat belt activates, smoke is released and a loud noise may be heard. The smoke is not harmful, but care should be taken not to inhale it as it may cause irritation and choking. Those with a history of a breathing condition should get fresh air promptly. If any abnormality occurs in the pre-tensioner seat belt system, the supplemental air bag warn- will not come on, will flash inter- ing light mittently or will turn on for 7 seconds and remain on after the ignition switch has been turned to the ON or START position. In this case, the pre-tensioner seat belt may not function prop- erly. They must be checked and repaired. Take your vehicle to a NISSAN dealer. When selling your vehicle, we request that you inform the buyer about the pre-tensioner seat belt system and guide the buyer to the appro- priate sections in this Owner’s Manual.
