PRECAUTIONS ON
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT
SYSTEM
This Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) sec-
tion contains important information concerning
the following systems:● Driver and passenger supplemental front-
impact air bag (NISSAN Advanced Air Bag
System)
● Front seat-mounted side-impact supple-
mental air bag
● Roof-mounted curtain side-impact and roll-
over supplemental air bag
● Seat belt with pretensioner
Supplemental front-impact air bag system:
The NISSAN Advanced Air Bag System 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 supple-
mental air bags: This system can help cushion
the impact force to the chest area of the driver
and front passenger in certain side impact colli-
sions. The supplemental side air bag is designed
to inflate on the side where the vehicle is im-
pacted. Roof-mounted curtain side-impact and
rollover supplemental air bag system:
This
system can help cushion the impact force to the
head of occupants in front and rear outboard
seating positions 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, both curtain and
rollover air bags are designed to inflate and re-
main inflated for a short time.
These supplemental restraint systems are de-
signed to supplement the crash protection pro-
vided by the seat belts and are not a substitute
for them. Seat belts should always be correctly
worn and the occupant seated a suitable dis-
tance away from the steering wheel, instrument
panel and door finishers. See “Seat belts” earlier
in this section for instructions and precautions on
seat belt usage.
The supplemental air bags operate only
when the ignition switch is placed in the
ON or START position.
After placing the ignition switch in 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 system is operational.

WARNING
●The seat belts, the side air bags and
curtain and rollover air bags are most
effective when you are sitting well back
and upright in the seat. The side air bag
and curtain and rollover air bag inflate
with great force. Do not allow anyone to
place their hand, leg or face near the
side air bag on the side of the seatback
of the front seat or near the side roof
rails. Do not allow anyone sitting in the
front seats or rear outboard seats to
extend their hand out of the window or
lean against the door. Some examples
of dangerous riding positions are
shown in the previous illustrations.

Front seat-mounted side-impact
supplemental air bag and roof-
mounted curtain side-impact and
rollover supplemental air bag systems
The side air bags are located in the outside of the
seatback of the front seats. The curtain and roll-
over air bags are located in the side roof rails in all
3 rows. 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 warn-
ings in this manual still apply and must be
followed. The side air bags and curtain and
rollover air bags are designed to inflate in higher severity side collisions, 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.
Curtain and rollover air bags are also designed to
inflate in certain types of rollover collisions or near
rollovers. As a result, certain vehicle movements
(for example, during severe off roading) may
cause the curtain and rollover air bags to inflate.
Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an
indication of proper side air bag and curtain and
rollover air bag operation.
When the side air bags and curtain and rollover
air bags 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.
Side air bags, along with the use of seat belts,
help to cushion the impact force on the chest of
the front occupants. Curtain and rollover air bags
help to cushion the impact force to the head of
occupants in the front and rear outboard seating
positions in all rows. They can help save lives and
reduce serious injuries. However, an inflating
side air bag or curtain and rollover air bag may
cause abrasions or other injuries. Side air bags
and curtain 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 and rollover air
bags inflate quickly in order to help protect the
occupants. Because of this, the force of the side
air bags and curtain and rollover 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 bag will deflate
quickly after the collision is over.
The curtain and rollover air bag will remain in-
flated for a short time.
The side air bags and curtain and rollover
air bags operate only when the ignition
switch is placed in the ON or START posi-
tion.
After placing the ignition switch in 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 system is operational.

ROOF RACK

Always distribute the luggage evenly on the roof
rack. Do not load more than 200 lbs (91 kg) on
entire roof rack. Be sure load is evenly distributed
across both crossbars. Be careful that your ve-
hicle does not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating (GVWR) or its Gross Axle Weight Rating
(GAWR front and rear) . The GVWR and GAWR
are located on the F.M.V.S.S. label (located on
the driver’s door pillar) . For more information
regarding GVWR and GAWR, refer to “Vehicle
loading information” in the “Technical and con-
sumer information” section later in this manual.The crossbars can be adjusted forward and
backward. Loosen the thumbwheel
1and ad-
just the crossbar to the desired position. Tighten
the thumbwheel. Place your luggage on the bars
and secure the luggage with rope to the utility
loops
2. Do not place luggage on the side rails
or tie rope directly to the side rails. Always be
sure the thumbwheels are fully tightened to keep
the crossbar in place. Do not use utility loops for
any purpose other than securing luggage.
POWER WINDOWS

AUTOMATIC MOONROOF
The moonroof will only operate when the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position. The auto-
matic moonroof is operational for about 45 sec-
onds, even if the ignition switch is placed in the
ACC or OFF position. If the driver’s door or the
front passenger’s door is opened during this
period of about 45 seconds, power to the moon-
roof is canceled.
Sliding the moonroof
To fully open the moonroof, push the switch to-
ward the open position
3.To fully close the moonroof, push the switch
toward the close position
4.
To open or close the moonroof part way, push the
switch in any direction
5while the moonroof is
sliding open or closed to stop it in the desired
position.
Tilting the moonroof
To tilt the moonroof up, push the tilt switch to-
ward the up position
1. When the moonroof is
open, it will automatically close and then tilt up.
To tilt the moonroof down, push the tilt switch
toward the down position
2.
Restarting the moonroof sliding switch
The sliding switch will become inoperable after
the battery terminal is disconnected, the electri-
cal supply interrupted and/or some abnormality
detected. Use the following reset procedure to
return moonroof operation to normal.
1. If the moonroof lid is open, push the tilting switch repeatedly toward the down position
2to fully close the lid.
2. Push and hold the tilting switch for more than 2 seconds toward the down position
2to reestablish the lid’s home position.
The moonroof should now operate normally.
Auto reverse function (when closing or
tilting down the moonroof)
The auto reverse function can be activated when
the moonroof is closed or tilted down by auto-
matic operation when the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position or for about 45 sec-
onds after the ignition switch is placed in the OFF
position.
Depending on the environment or driving
conditions, the auto reverse function may
be activated if an impact or load similar to
something being caught in the moonroof
occurs.
