INFINITI ADVANCED AIR BAG SYSTEM
(front seats)
This vehicle is equipped with the INFINITI Ad-
vanced Air Bag System for the driver and front
passenger seats. This system is designed to
meet certification requirements under U.S.
regulations. It is also permitted in Canada.
However, all of the information, cautions and
warnings in this manual still apply and must be
followed.
The driver supplemental front-impact air bag is
located in the center of the steering wheel. The
front passenger supplemental front-impact air
bag is mounted in the instrument panel above
the glove box. The front air bags are designed
to inflate in higher severity frontal collisions,
although they may inflate if the forces in an-
other 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 front air bag operation.The INFINITI Advanced Air Bag System has dual
stage air bag inflators. The system monitors
information from the crash zone sensor, the Air
bag Control Unit (ACU), seat belt buckleswitches and the occupant classification sensor
(pattern sensor). Inflator operation is based on
the severity of a collision and seat belt usage
for the driver. For the front passenger, the
