fluid is at a low level. Add windshield washer fluid
as necessary. See “Window washer fluid” in the
“Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section of this
manual.

chime
The light and chime remind you to fasten your
seat belts. The light illuminates whenever the

when the front passenger’s seat is occupied . For
7 seconds after the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position, the system does not activate the
warning light for the front passenger.
Refer to “Seat belts” in the “Safety—Seats, seat
belts and supplemental restraint system” section
for precautions on seat belt usage.

light
When the ignition switch is in the ON or START

illuminates for about 7 seconds and then turns
off. This means the system is operational.

air bag, side air bag (if so equipped) , curtain and
roll-over air bag (if so equipped) , and preten-
sioner systems need servicing and your vehicle
must be taken to a NISSAN dealer:

mains on after approximately 7 seconds.

flashes intermittently.

not come on at all.

tensioners may not function properly. For addi-
tional details see “Supplemental restraint sys-
tem” in the “Safety—Seats, seat belts and
supplemental restraint system” section of this
manual.

is on, it could mean that the front air bag,
side air bag (if so equipped) , curtain and
roll-over air bag systems (if so equipped) ,
and/or pretensioner systems will not op-
erate in an accident. To help avoid injury
to yourself or others, have your vehicle
checked by a NISSAN dealer as soon as
possible.
