NISSAN ARMADA 2023 Owners Manual

It is also recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer for installation of
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 and second row
outboard seats 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.1-74) 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
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, knee air bag, side air
bag, curtain air bag and/or preten-
sioner 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
recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.

REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT PRO-
CEDURE
The front air bags, knee 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 supplemental air bag
warning light will remain illuminated after
inflation has occurred. These systems
should be repaired and/or replaced as
soon as possible. It is recommended you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
When maintenance work is required on
the vehicle, the front air bags, knee 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, knee air bag,
side air bag or curtain air bag has
inflated, the air bag module will
not function again and must be
replaced. Additionally, the acti-
vated pretensioner must also be
replaced. The air bag module and pretensioner should be replaced.
It is recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
However, the air bag module and
pretensioner system cannot be
repaired.
. The front air bag, knee air bag,
side air bag, curtain air bag and
the pretensioner should be in-
spected 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.
