PRECAUTIONS ON
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT
SYSTEMThis Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) sec-
tion contains important information concerning
the driver and passenger front impact supple-
mental air bags (NISSAN advanced air bag
system), front seat side-impact supplemental air
bags, curtain side-impact and rollover air bags
and front seat pre-tensioner seat belts.
Supplemental front impact air bag system:
The NISSAN advanced air bag system can help
cushion the impact force to the face and chest of
the driver and front passenger in certain frontal
collisions.
Supplemental side-impact air bag system:
This system can help cushion the impact force to
the chest area of the driver and front passenger
in certain side impact collisions. The front seat
side-impact supplemental air bags are designed
to inflate on the side where the vehicle is
impacted.
Supplemental curtain side-impact and roll-
over air bag system:This system can help
cushion the impact force to the head of occu-
pants in front and rear outboard seating posi-
tions in certain side impact or rollover collisions.
In a side impact, the curtain air bags are de-
signed to inflate on the side where the vehicle is
impacted. In a rollover, both curtain air bags aredesigned to inflate and remain inflated for a
while.
These supplemental restraint systems are de-
signed tosupplementthe crash protection
provided by the driver and passenger seat belts
and arenot a substitutefor them. Seat belts
should always be correctly worn and the occu-
pant seated a suitable distance away from the
steering wheel, instrument panel, door finishers
and side roof rails. (See “Seat belts” earlier in
this section for instructions and precautions on
seat belt usage.)
After turning the ignition switch to 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 systems are operational.SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT

WARNING
The supplemental front air bags ordi-
narily will not inflate in the event of a
side impact, rear impact, rollover, or
lower severity frontal collision. Al-
ways wear your seat belts to help
reduce the risk or severity of injury in
various kinds of accidents.
The front passenger air bag will not
inflate if the passenger air bag statuslight is lit or if the front passenger
seat is unoccupied. See “Front pas-
senger air bag and status light” later
in this section.
The seat belts and the supplemental
front air bags are most effective
when you are sitting well back and
upright in the seat. Supplemental
front air bags inflate with great force.
Even with the NISSAN advanced air
bag system, if you are unrestrained,
leaning forward, sitting sideways orout of position in any way, you are at
greater risk of injury or death in a
crash. You may also receive serious
or fatal injuries from the supplemen-
tal front air bag if you are up against
it when it inflates. Always sit back
against the seatback and as far away
as practical from the steering wheel
or instrument panel. Always use the
seat belts.
The driver and front passenger seat
belt buckles are equipped with sen-
sors that detect if the seat belts are
fastened. The air bag system moni-
tors the severity of a collision and
then inflates the air bags based on
belt usage. Failure to properly wear
seat belts can increase the risk or
severity of injury in an accident.
The front passenger seat is equipped
with an occupant classification sen-
sor (pressure sensor) that turns the
front passenger air bag OFF under
some conditions. This sensor is only
used in this seat. Failure to be prop-

erly seated and wearing the seat belt
can increase the risk or severity of
injury in an accident. See “Front Pas-
senger air bag and status light” later
in this section.
Keep hands on the outside of the
steering wheel. Placing them inside
the steering wheel rim could increase
the risk that they are injured when
the supplemental front air bag in-
flates.
Never let children ride unrestrained
or extend their hands or face out ofthe window. Do not attempt to hold
them in your lap or arms. Some
examples of dangerous riding posi-
tions are shown in the illustrations.
Pre-teens and children should be
properly restrained in the rear seat, if
possible.
Children may be severely injured or
killed when the supplemental front
air bags, side air bags or curtain
side-impact and rollover air bags in-
flate if they are not properly re-
strained. Pre-teens and children
should be properly restrained in therear seat, if possible.
Even with the NISSAN advanced air
bag system, never install a rear fac-
ing child restraint in the front seat.
An inflating supplemental front air
bag could seriously injure or kill your
child. See “Child restraints” earlier in
this section for details.

NISSAN ADVANCED AIR BAG
SYSTEM (front seats)This vehicle is equipped with the NISSAN ad-
vanced air bag system for the driver and front
passenger seats. This system is designed to
meet certification requirements under U.S. regu-
lations. It is also permitted in Canada.However,
all of the information, cautions and warn-
ings in this manual still apply and must be
followed.
The driver supplemental front air bag is located
in the center of the steering wheel. The front
passenger supplemental front air bag is
mounted in the instrument panel above the glove
box. The supplemental front air bags are de-
signed to inflate in higher severity frontal colli-
sions, although they may inflate if the forces in
another type of collision are similar to those of a
higher severity frontal impact. They may not
inflate in certain frontal collisions. Vehicle dam-
age (or lack of it) is not always an indication of
proper supplemental air bag system operation.
The NISSAN advanced air bag system has dual
stage inflators. It also monitors information from
the crash zone sensor, the diagnosis sensor unit,
seat belt buckle switches, occupant classifica-

tion sensor (pressure sensor) and passenger
seat belt tension sensor. Inflator operation is
based on the severity of a collision and seat belt
usage of the driver. For the front passenger, it
additionally monitors the weight of an occupant
or object on the seat and seat belt tension.
Based on information from the sensors, only one
front air bag may inflate in a crash, depending on
the crash severity and whether the front occu-
pants are belted or unbelted. Additionally, the
front passenger air bag may be automatically
turned OFF under some conditions, depending
on the weight detected on the passenger seat
and how the seat belt is used. If the front
passenger air bag is OFF, the passenger air bag
status light will be illuminated (if the seat is
unoccupied, the light will not be illuminated, but
the air bag will be off.). See “Front passenger air
bag and status light” later in this section for
further details. One front air bag inflating does
not indicate improper performance of the sys-
tem.
If you have any questions about your air bag
system, contact a NISSAN dealer. If you are
considering modifications of your vehicle due to
a disability, you may also contact a NISSAN
dealer. Contact information is contained in the
front of this Owner’s Manual.
When a supplemental front air bag inflates, afairly 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 to
not inhale it, as it may cause irritation and
choking. Those with a history of a breathing
condition should get fresh air promptly.
Supplemental front air bags, along with the use
of seat belts, help to cushion the impact force on
the face and chest of the front occupants. They
can help save lives and reduce serious injuries.
However, an inflating front air bag may cause
facial abrasions or other injuries. Front air bags
do not provide restraint to the lower body.
Even with NISSAN advanced air bags, seat belts
should be correctly worn and the driver and
passenger seated upright as far as practical
away from the steering wheel or instrument
panel. The supplemental front air bags inflate
quickly in order to help protect the front occu-
pants. Because of this, the force of the front air
bag inflating can increase the risk of injury if the
occupant is too close to, or is against the front
air bag module during inflation.
The front air bags deflate quickly after a collision.
The supplemental front air bags operate
only when the ignition switch is in the ON
or START position.
After turning the ignition switch to the ONposition, 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.1-46

If a malfunction occurs in the front passenger air
bag system, the supplemental air bag warning
light
, located in the meter and gauges
area, will blink. Have the system checked by a
NISSAN dealer.
Other supplemental front air bag
precautions
WARNING
Do not place any objects on the
steering wheel pad or on the instru-
ment panel. Also, do not place any
objects between any occupant and
the steering wheel or instrument
panel. Such objects may become
dangerous projectiles and cause in-
jury if the supplemental front air bag
inflates.
Immediately after inflation, several
front air bag system components will
be hot. Do not touch them; you may
severely burn yourself.
No unauthorized changes should be
made to any components or wiring ofthe supplemental air bag system.
This is to prevent accidental inflation
of the supplemental air bag or dam-
age to the supplemental air bag sys-
tem.
Do not make unauthorized changes
to your vehicle’s electrical system,
suspension system or front end
structure. This could affect proper
operation of the supplemental air
bag system.
Tampering with the supplemental
front air bag system may result in
serious personal injury. Tampering
includes changes to the steering
wheel and the instrument panel as-
sembly by placing material over the
steering wheel pad and above the
instrument panel or by installing ad-
ditional trim material around the air
bag system.
Modifying or tampering with the front
passenger seat may result in serious
personal injury. For example, do not
change the front seats by placingmaterial on the seat cushion or by
installing additional trim material,
such as seat covers, on the seat.
Additionally, do not stow any objects
under the front passenger seat or the
seat cushion and seatback. Such ob-
jects may interfere with the proper
operation of the occupant classifica-
tion sensor (pressure sensor).
No unauthorized changes should be
made to any components or wiring of
the seat belt system. This may affect
the supplemental front air bag sys-
tem. Tampering with the seat belt
system may result in serious per-
sonal injury.
Work on and around the supplemen-
tal front air bag system should be
done by a NISSAN dealer. Installa-
tion of electrical equipment should
also be done by a NISSAN dealer.
The Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) wiring should not be modified
or disconnected. Unauthorized elec-
trical test equipment and probing de-

while driving the vehicle.
The warning light goes off about 10 seconds
after the Intelligent Key is brought inside the
vehicle.
Low fuel warning light
This light comes on when the fuel in the tank is
getting low. Refuel as soon as it is convenient,
preferably before the fuel gauge reaches E.
There will be a small reserve of fuel re-
maining in the tank when the fuel gauge
needle reaches E.
Low tire pressure warning light
(if so equipped)
Your vehicle is equipped with a tire pressure
monitoring system (TPMS) that monitors the tire
pressure of all tires except the spare.
The low tire pressure warning light warns of low
tire pressure or indicates that the TPMS is not
functioning properly.
After the ignition switch is turned ON, this light
illuminates for about 1 second and turns off.
Low tire pressure warning:
If the vehicle is being driven with low tire pres-
sure, the warning light will illuminate. If you select
the tire pressure information (if so equipped) inthe display, the FLAT TIRE warning message will
be displayed. The tire pressure for each tire will
also be displayed.
When the low tire pressure warning light illumi-
nates, you should stop and adjust the tire pres-
sure to the recommended COLD tire pressure
shown on the Tire and Loading Information label
to turn the light OFF.
For additional information, see “Tire pressure
monitoring system (TPMS)” in the “5. Starting
and driving” section and the “6. In case of
emergency” section.
TPMS malfunction:
If the TPMS is not functioning properly, the low
tire pressure warning light will flash for approxi-
mately 1 minute when the ignition switch is
turned ON. The light will remain on after the 1
minute. Have the system checked by a NISSAN
dealer.
For additional information, see “Tire pressure
monitoring system (TPMS)” in the “5. Starting
and driving” section.
WARNING
If the light does not illuminate with
the ignition switch turned ON, have
the vehicle checked by a NISSAN
dealer as soon as possible.
If the light illuminates while driving,
avoid sudden steering maneuvers or
abrupt braking, reduce vehicle speed,
pull off the road to a safe location
and stop the vehicle as soon as pos-
sible. Serious vehicle damage could
occur and may lead to an accident
and could result in serious personal
injury. Check the tire pressure for all
four tires. Adjust the tire pressure to
the recommended COLD tire pres-
sure shown on the Tire and Loading
Information label to turn the low tire
pressure warning light OFF. If the
light still comes on while driving after
adjusting the tire pressure, a tire may
be flat or the TPMS may be malfunc-
tioning. If you have a flat tire, replace
it with a spare tire as soon as
