2015 INFINITI Consumer Safety & Air Bag Information Guide 2
THE INFINITI ADVANCED AIR BAG SYSTEM
All 2015 INFINITI vehic les are equipped with the INFINITI Advanced Air Bag System (AABS) for the
driver and front passenger seats. T his system, which has dual-stage inflators, * monitors
information from various crash sensors, the front seat belt buckle sensors, and the occupant
classification sensor.
The front passenger air bag may be automatically turned OFF under some conditions, depending
on the weight detected by the occupant classification sensors in the passenger seat. See the
vehicle owner’s manual for more informatio n. If the front passenger air bag is OFF, the front
passenger air bag status light will be illuminated. **
The front passenger air bag status light does not indicate a malfunction of the front passenger air
bag. If the front passenger air bag status light is illuminated while an adult occupies the seat ,
the occupant may need to shift his or her seating position so the system can turn ON the front
passenger air bag and turn OFF the status light. See your owner’s manual for proper seating
positions.
Remember, all air bags are supplemental restraint systems. You must properly use seat belts
and child restraints, as explained in the vehicle owner’s manual and your child restraint
manufacturer’s instructions.
THE MOST IMPORTANT PART OF AN AIR BAG: Y OUR SEAT BELT
Your chances of surviving a collision will improve greatly if one simple piece of advice is
followed : always wear your seat belt. Do no t count on just the air bags for occupant protection ;
th ey are merely a
supplemental restraint system.
Seat belts help to protect the occupants of your vehicle during co llisions in which the air bags
are n ot designed to activate. In addition , in situations where the air bags are activated, seat
belt s enhance their effectiveness and can help reduce the risk of injur y from an inflating air bag.
S eat belt s will also help protect the occupants of your vehicle during multiple- impact collisions,
while the air bag s work only one time if a collision is severe enough to activate them . Please see
the
SEAT BELT SAFETY and CHILD SAFETY sections of this guide and the vehicle owner’s manual
for more information.
*D ual -stage inflators vary the inflation rate based on the severity of the collision (for example, less forceful
inflation for moderate impacts and a higher in flation force for more severe impacts). In addition, based on
information from the seat belt buckle sensors that detect whether the seat belts are fastened , the
deployment of the front air bags is adjusted. Only one front air bag may inflate in a crash, depe nding on
the crash severity and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
**When the system detects that the seat is unoccupied, the passenger air bag status light will not
i lluminate even though the front passenger air bag i s OFF.
