seats NISSAN ARMADA 2018 Owner´s Manual

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 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 bags. This is to prevent da-
mage to or accidental inflation of
the 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.
. Removing or modifying the front
passenger seat may affect the
function of the air bag system
and result in serious personal
injury.
. It is recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer for work on and
around the side air bag and
curtain air bag. It is also recom-
mended you visit a NISSAN dealer
for installation of electrical equip-
ment. The Supplemental Re-
straint System (SRS) wiring
harnesses* should not be modi-
fied or disconnected. Unauthor-
ized electrical test equipment
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.
SEAT BELTS WITH PRETENSIONERS
(front seats)
WARNING
.
The pretensioners cannot be re-
used after activation. They must
be replaced together with the
retractor and buckle as a unit.
. If the vehicle becomes involved in
a collision but a pretensioner is
not activated, be sure to have the
pretensioner system checked
and, if necessary, replaced. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
. No unauthorized changes should
be made to any components or
wiring of the pretensioner sys-
tem. This is to prevent damage to
or accidental activation of the
pretensioners. Tampering with
the pretensioner system may re-
sult in serious personal injury.
. 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
Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-69

1-70Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
electrical equipment. Unauthor-
ized electrical test equipment
and probing devices should not
be used on the pretensioner sys-
tem.
. If you need to dispose of a pre-
tensioner or scrap the vehicle, it is
recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service. Correct
pretensioner disposal procedures
are set forth in the appropriate
NISSAN Service Manual. Incorrect
disposal procedures could cause
personal injury.
The pretensioner system may activate
with the supplemental air bag system in
certain types of collisions. Working with
the seat belt retractor, it helps tighten the
seat belt when the vehicle becomes
involved in certain types of collisions,
helping to restrain front seat occupants.
The pretensioner is encased with the seat
belt retractor and buckle anchor. These
seat belts are used the same way as
conventional seat belts.
When a pretensioner activates, smoke is
released and a loud noise may be heard.
The smoke is not harmful, and it 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 breath- ing condition should get fresh air
promptly.
After pretensioner activation, load limiters
allow the seat belt to release webbing (if
necessary) to reduce forces against the
chest.
The supplemental air bag warning light
is used to indicate malfunctions in
the pretensioner system. (See “Supple-
mental air bag warning light” (P.1-71) for
more details.) If the operation of the
supplemental air bag warning light indi-
cates there is a malfunction, have the
system checked. It is recommended you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
When selling your vehicle, we request that
you inform the buyer about the preten-
sioner system and guide the buyer to the
appropriate sections in this Owner’s Man-
ual.

SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING
LABELS
Warning labels about the supplemental
front-impact air bag system are placed in
the vehicle as shown in the illustration.
SRS air bag
The warning labelsare located on the
surface of the sun visors.
WARNING
Do not use a rear-facing child re-
straint on a seat protected by an air
bag in front of it. If the air bag

deploys, it may cause serious injury
or death.
SPA1097
SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING
LIGHT
The supplemental air bag warning light,
displayingin the instrument panel,
monitors the circuits for the air bag
systems, pretensioners and all related
wiring.
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warn-
ing light illuminates for about 7 seconds
and then turns off. This means the system
is operational.
If any of the following conditions occur,
the air bag and/or pretensioner systems
need servicing: .
The supplemental air bag warning
light remains on after approximately
7 seconds.
. The supplemental air bag warning
light flashes intermittently.
. The supplemental air bag warning
light does not come on at all.
Under these conditions, the air bag and/
or pretensioner systems may not operate
properly. They must be checked and
repaired. It is recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
WARNING
If the supplemental air bag warning
light is on, it could mean that the
front air bag, side air bag, curtain air
bag and/or pretensioner systems
will not operate in an accident. To
help avoid injury to yourself or
others, have your vehicle checked
as soon as possible. It is recom-
mended you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.

REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT PRO-
CEDURE
The front air bags, side air bags, curtain
air bags and pretensioners are designed
to activate on a one-time-only basis. As a
reminder, unless it is damaged, the sup-
plemental air bag warning light will re-
main illuminated after inflation has
occurred. These systems should be re-
paired and/or replaced as soon as possi-
ble. It is recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
When maintenance work is required on
the vehicle, the front air bags, side air
bags, curtain air bags, pretensioners and
related parts should be pointed out to the
person conducting the maintenance. The
ignition switch should always be in the
LOCK position when working under the
hood or inside the vehicle.
WARNING
.Once a front air bag, side air bag
or curtain air bag has inflated, the
air bag module will not function
again and must be replaced. Ad-
ditionally, the activated preten-
sioner must also be replaced. The
air bag module and pretensioner
should be replaced. It is recom- mended you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service. However, the air
bag module and pretensioner
system cannot be repaired.
. The front air bag, side air bag,
curtain air bag and the preten-
sioner should be inspected if
there is any damage to the front
end or side portion of the vehicle.
It is recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
. If you need to dispose of a sup-
plemental air bag or pretensioner
or scrap the vehicle, it is recom-
mended you visit a NISSAN deal-
er. Correct supplemental air bag
and pretensioner system dispo-
sal procedures are set forth in the
appropriate NISSAN Service Man-
ual. Incorrect disposal procedures
could cause personal injury.
. If there is an impact to your
vehicle from any direction, your
Occupant Classification Sensor
(OCS) should be checked to verify
it is still functioning correctly. It is
recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
The OCS should be checked even
if no air bags deploy as a result of
the impact. Failure to verify prop-
er OCS function may result in an improper air bag deployment re-
sulting in injury or death.
