NISSAN GT-R 2022 Owners Manual

8 Do-it-yourself

.If the vehicle becomes involved in
a collision but the pretensioner is
not activated, it is recommended
to have the pretensioner system
checked and, if necessary, re-
placed by a GT-R certified NISSAN
dealer.
. No unauthorized changes should
be made to any components or
wiring of the pretensioners. This
is to prevent damage to or acci-
dental activation of the preten-
sioners. Tampering with the
pretensioner system may result
in serious personal injury.
. Work around and on the preten-
sioners should be done by a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer. Installa-
tion of electrical equipment
should also be done by a GT-R
certified NISSAN dealer. Un-
authorized electrical test equip-
ment and probing devices should
not be used on the pretensioners.
. If you need to dispose of a pre-
tensioner or scrap the vehicle, it is
recommended you contact a
GT-R certified NISSAN dealer. In-
correct 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. 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
“Supplemental air bag warning light”
page 1-48 for more details.) If the opera-
tion of the supplemental air bag warning
light indicates there is a malfunction, it is
recommended you have the system
checked by a GT-R certified NISSAN deal-
er. 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
LIGHTThe supplemental air bag warning light,
displaying
in the meter, monitors the
circuits for the air bag systems, preten-
sioners and all related wirings.
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 SRS air
bag systems are 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 take
your vehicle to the nearest GT-R certified
NISSAN dealer.
