WARNING
.Every person who drives or rides
in this vehicle should use a seat
belt at all times.
. The seat belt should be properly
adjusted to a snug fit. Failure to
do so may reduce the effective-
ness of the entire restraint sys-
tem and increase the chance or
severity of injury in an accident.
Serious injury or death can occur
if the seat belt is not worn prop-
erly.
. Always route the shoulder belt
over your shoulder and across
your chest. Never put the belt
behind your back, under your
arm or across your neck. The belt
should be away from your face
and neck, but not falling off your
shoulder.
. Position the lap belt as low and
snug as possible AROUND THE
HIPS, NOT THE WAIST. A lap belt
worn too high could increase the
risk of internal injuries in an
accident.
. Be sure the seat belt tongue is
securely fastened to the proper buckle.
. Do not wear the seat belt inside
out or twisted. Doing so may
reduce its effectiveness.
. Do not allow more than one
person to use the same seat belt.
. Never carry more people in the
vehicle than there are seat belts.
. If the seat belt warning light
glows continuously while the
ignition is turned ON with all
doors closed and all seat belts
fastened, it may indicate a mal-
function in the system. Have the
system checked. It is recom-
mended you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.
. No changes should be made to
the seat belt system. For exam-
ple, do not modify the seat belt,
add material or install devices
that may change the seat belt
routing or tension. Doing so may
affect the operation of the seat
belt system. Modifying or tam-
pering with the seat belt system
may result in serious personal
injury.
. Once a seat belt pretensioner has
activated, it cannot be reused and
must be replaced together with

PRECAUTIONS ON SUPPLEMENTAL
RESTRAINT SYSTEM
This Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
section contains important information
concerning the following systems.
.Driver and passenger supplemental
front-impact air bag (NISSAN Ad-
vanced Air Bag System)
. Front seat-mounted side-impact sup-
plemental air bag
. Roof-mounted curtain side-impact
and rollover supplemental air bag
(Coupe models)
. Door-mounted curtain side-impact
supplemental air bag (Roadster mod-
els)
. Seat belt with pretensioner
Supplemental front-impact air bag sys-
tem: The NISSAN Advanced Air Bag Sys-
tem can help cushion the impact force to
the head and chest of the driver and front
passenger in certain frontal collisions.
Front seat-mounted side-impact sup-
plemental air bag system: This system
can help cushion the impact force to the
chest and pelvis 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. Roof-mounted curtain side-impact and
rollover supplemental air bag system
(for Coupe models):
This system can help
cushion the impact force to the head of
the driver and front passenger in certain
side-impact or rollover collisions. In a
side-impact, the curtain air bags are
designed to inflate on the side where
the vehicle is impacted. In a rollover,
curtain air bags on both sides are de-
signed to inflate and remain inflated for a
short time.
Curtain air bags are also designed to
inflate in certain types of rollover colli-
sions or near rollovers. As a result, certain
vehicle movements may cause the cur-
tain air bags to inflate.
Door-mounted curtain side-impact
supplemental air bag system (for Road-
ster models): This system can help cush-
ion the impact force to the heads of the
driver and front passenger in certain side
impact collisions. The curtain air bags are
designed to inflate on the side where the
vehicle is impacted.
These supplemental restraint systems are
designed to supplement the crash pro-
tection provided by the driver and pas-
senger 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 pa-
nel and door finishers. (See “Seat belts”
(P.1-10) for instructions and precautions
on seat belt usage.)
The supplemental air bags operate only
when the ignition switch is in the ON
position.
After pushing the ignition switch to the
ON position, the supplemental air bag
warning light illuminates. The supple-
mental air bag warning light will turn
off after about 7 seconds if the systems
are operational.
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM

tion.
The NISSAN 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 buckle switches 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 pas-
senger, the occupant classification sensor
is also monitored. Based on information
from the sensors, only one front air bag
may inflate in a crash, depending on the
crash severity and whether the front
occupants are belted or unbelted. Addi-
tionally, the front passenger air bag may
be automatically turned OFF under some
conditions, depending on the information
provided by the occupant classification
sensor. If the front passenger air bag is
OFF, the front passenger air bag status
light will be illuminated (if the seat is
unoccupied, the light will not be illumi-
nated, but the air bag will be off). (See
“Front passenger air bag and status light”
(P.1-38) for further details.) One front air
bag inflating does not indicate improper
performance of the system.
If you have any questions about your air
bag system, it is recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer to obtain informationabout the system. If you are considering
modification of your vehicle due to a
disability, you may also contact a NISSAN
dealer. Contact information is contained
in the front of this Owner’s Manual.
When a 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.
Front air bags, along with the use of seat
belts, help to cushion the impact force on
the head and chest of the front occu-
pants. They can help save lives and
reduce serious injuries. However, an in-
flating front air bag may cause facial
abrasions or other injuries. Front air bags
do not provide restraint to the lower
body.
Even with NISSAN advanced air bags, 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 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 front air bags deflate quickly after a
collision.
The supplemental front air bags oper-
ate only when the ignition switch is in
the ON position.
After pushing the ignition switch to the
ON position, the supplemental air bag
warning light illuminates. The supple-
mental air bag warning light will turn
off after about 7 seconds if the system
is operational.

WARNING
The front passenger air bag is de-
signed to automatically turn OFF
under some conditions. Read this
section carefully to learn how it
operates. Proper use of the seat,
seat belt and child restraints is ne-
cessary for most effective protec-
tion. Failure to follow all
instructions in this manual concern-
ing the use of seats, seat belts andchild restraints can increase the risk
or severity of injury in an accident.
Status light:
The front passenger air bag status light
is located on the instrument panel.
After the ignition switch is placed in the
ON position, the front passenger air bag
status light illuminates for about 7 sec-
onds and then turns off or illuminates
depending on the front passenger seat
occupied status. The light operates as
follows:
. Unoccupied front passenger seat: The
is OFF and the front passenger air
bag is OFF and will not inflate in a
crash.
. Front passenger seat occupied by a
small adult, child or child restraint as
outlined in this section: The
illu-
minates to indicate that the front
passenger air bag is OFF and will not
inflate in a crash.
. Occupied front passenger seat and
the front passenger meets the condi-
tions outlined in this section: The light
is OFF to indicate that the front
passenger air bag is operational. Front passenger air bag:
The front passenger air bag is designed
to automatically turn OFF when the
vehicle is operated under some condi-
tions as described below as permitted by
U.S. regulations. If the front passenger air
bag is OFF, it will not inflate in a crash. The
driver air bag and other air bags in your
vehicle are not part of this system.
The purpose of the regulation is to help
reduce the risk of injury or death from an
inflating air bag to certain front passen-
ger seat occupants, such as children, by
requiring the air bag to be automatically
turned OFF.
The occupant classification sensor (pat-
tern sensor) is in the front passenger seat
cushion and is designed to detect an
occupant and objects on the seat. For
example, if a child is in the front passen-
ger seat, the Advanced Air Bag System is
designed to turn the front passenger air
bag OFF in accordance with the regula-
tions. Also, if a child restraint of the type
specified in the regulations is on the seat,
the occupant classification sensor can
detect it and cause the air bag to turn
OFF.
Front passenger seat adult occupants
who are properly seated and using the
seat belt as outlined in this manual
should not cause the front passenger air

1-42Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
bags and curtain 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, and seated as far away as
practical from the door finishers and side
roof rails. The side air bags and curtain air
bags inflate quickly in order to help
protect the occupants. Because of this,
the force of the side air bags and curtain
air bags inflating can increase the risk of
injury if the occupant is too close to, or is
against, these air bag modules during
inflation. The side air bags and curtain air
bags will remain inflated for a short
period of time. For Coupe models, in a
rollover, the curtain air bags on both side-
impact situations, the curtain air bags will
remain inflated for a short period of time.
The side air bags and curtain air bags
operate only when the ignition switch is
in the ON position.
After placing the ignition switch in 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
.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 finisher and the front
seat. Such objects may become
dangerous projectiles and cause
injury if a side air bag inflates.
. Right after inflation, several side
air bags and curtain air bag sys-
tem components will be hot. Do
not touch them; you may severely
burn yourself.
. No unauthorized changes should
be made to any components or
wiring of side air bag and curtain
air bag systems. This is to prevent
accidental inflation of the side air
bag and curtain air bag or da-
mage to side air bag and curtain
air bag systems.
. Do not make unauthorized
changes to your vehicle’s electri-
cal system, suspension system or
side panel. This could affect prop-
er operation of the side air bag
and curtain air bag systems. .
Tampering with the air bag sys-
tem may result in serious perso-
nal injury. For example, do not
change the front seats by placing
material near the seatback or by
installing additional trim materi-
al, such as seat covers, around
the side air bags.
. It is recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer for work on and
around the pretensioner system.
It is also recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer for installation of
electrical equipment. The SRS
wiring harnesses* should not be
modified or disconnected. Un-
authorized electrical test equip-
ment and probing devices should
not be used on the side-impact
air bag system.
* The SRS wiring harness connectors are
yellow and orange for easy identifica-
tion.
When selling your vehicle, we request that
you inform the buyer about the side air
bag and curtain air bag systems and
guide the buyer to the appropriate sec-
tions in this Owner’s Manual.
