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. The front air bags
inflate with great force. Even with the
NISSAN advanced air bag system, if
you are unrestrained, leaning for-
ward, sitting sideways or out ofposition 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 advanced air bag sys-
tem monitors the severity of a colli-
sion and belt usage then inflates the
air bags. 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-

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 NISSAN or a NISSAN dealer. If
you are considering modifications of your vehicle
due to a disability, you may also contact
NISSAN. Contact information is contained in thefront of this Owner’s Manual.
When a supplemental front air bag inflates, a
fairly 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 head 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 operateonly when the ignition switch is in the ON
or START position.
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 system is operational.1-48

Front passenger air bag and status
light
WARNING
The front passenger air bag is designed
to automatically turn OFF under some
conditions. Read this section carefully
to learn how it operates. Proper use of
the seat, seat belt and child restraints is
necessary for most effective protection.Failure to follow all instructions in this
manual concerning the use of seats,
seat belts and child restraints can in-
crease the risk or severity of injury in an
accident.
Status light:
The front passenger air bag status light
is
located on the map light cover. The light oper-
ates as follows:
Unoccupied passenger seat: Theis
OFF and the front passenger air bag is OFF
and will not inflate in a crash.
Passenger seat occupied by a small adult,
child or child restraint as outlined in this
section: The
illuminates to indicate that
the front passenger air bag is OFF and will
not inflate in a crash.
Occupied passenger seat and the passenger
meets the conditions outlined in this section:
The
is OFF to indicate that the front
passenger air bag is operational.
Front passenger air bag:
The front passenger air bag is designed to
automatically turn OFF when the vehicle is op-
erated under some conditions as describedbelow in accordance with U.S. regulations. If the
front passenger air bag is OFF, it will not inflate
in a crash. The driver air bag and other air bags
in your vehicle are not part of this system.
The purpose of the regulation is to help reduce
the risk of injury or death from an inflating air bag
to certain front passenger seat occupants, such
as children, by requiring the air bag to be
automatically turned OFF. Certain sensors are
used to meet the requirements.
One sensor used is the occupant classification
sensor (pressure sensor). It is in the bottom of
the front passenger seat cushion and is de-
signed to detect an occupant and objects on the
seat by weight. It works together with seat belt
sensors described later. For example, if a child is
in the front passenger seat, the advanced air bag
system is designed to turn the passenger air bag
OFF in accordance with the regulations. Also, if
a child restraint of the type specified in the
regulations is on the seat, its weight and the
child’s weight can be detected and cause the air
bag to turn OFF. The occupant classification
sensor operation can vary depending on the
front passenger seat belt sensors.
The front passenger seat belt sensors are de-
signed to detect if the seat belt is buckled and
the amount of tension on the seat belt, such as
when it is in the automatic locking mode (child

restraint mode). Based on the weight on the seat
detected by the occupant classification sensor
and the belt tension detected on the seat belt,
the advanced air bag system determines
whether the front passenger air bag should be
automatically turned OFF as required by the
regulations.
Front passenger seat adult occupants who are
properly seated and using the seat belt as
outlined in this manual should not cause the
passenger air bag to be automatically turned
OFF. For small adults it may be turned OFF,
however, if the occupant takes his/her weight off
the seat cushion (for example, by not sitting
upright, by sitting on an edge of the seat, or by
otherwise being out of position), this could
cause the sensor to turn the air bag OFF. In
addition, if the occupant improperly uses the
seat belt in the automatic locking mode (child
restraint mode), this could cause the air bag to
be turned OFF. Always be sure to be seated and
wearing the seat belt properly for the most
effective protection by the seat belt and supple-
mental air bag.
NISSAN recommends that pre-teens and chil-
dren be properly restrained in a rear seat.
NISSAN also recommends that appropriate
child restraints and booster seats be properly
installed in a rear seat. If this is not possible, the
occupant classification sensor and seat beltsensors are designed to operate as described
above to turn the front passenger air bag OFF
for specified child restraints as required by the
regulations. Failing to properly secure child re-
strains and to use the automatic locking mode
(child restraint mode) may allow the restraint to
tip or move in an accident or sudden stop. This
can also result in the passenger air bag inflating
in a crash instead of being OFF. See “Child
restraints” earlier in this section for proper use
and installation.
If the front passenger seat is not occupied, the
passenger air bag is designed not to inflate in a
crash. However, heavy objects placed on the
seat could result in air bag inflation, because of
the object’s weight detected by the occupant
classification sensor. Other conditions could
also result in air bag inflation, such as if a child is
standing on the seat, or if two children are on the
seat, contrary to the instructions in this manual.
Always be sure that you and all vehicle occu-
pants are seated and restrained properly.
Using the passenger air bag status light, you can
monitor when the front passenger air bag is
automatically turned OFF with the seat occu-
pied. The light will not illuminate when the front
passenger seat is unoccupied.
If an adult occupant is in the seat but the
passenger air bag status light is illuminated(indicating that the air bag is OFF), it could be
that the person is a small adult, or is not sitting
on the seat properly or is not using the seat belt
properly.
If a child restraint must be used in the front seat,
the passenger air bag status light may or may not
be illuminated, depending on the size of the child
and the type of child restraint being used. If the
air bag status light is not illuminated (indicating
that the air bag might inflate in a crash), it could
be that the child restraint or seat belt is not being
used properly. Make sure that the child restraint
is installed properly, the seat belt is used prop-
erly and the occupant is positioned properly. If
the air bag status light is still not illuminated,
reposition the occupant or child restraint in a
rear seat.
If the passenger air bag status light will not
illuminate even though you believe that the child
restraint, the seat belt and the occupant are
properly positioned, the system may be sensing
an unoccupied seat (in which case the air bag is
OFF). Your NISSAN dealer can check that the
system is OFF by using a special tool. However,
until you have confirmed with your dealer that
your air bag is working properly, reposition the
occupant or child restraint in a rear seat.
The air bag system and passenger air bag status
light will take a few seconds to register a change1-50

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-
vices should not be used on the air
bag system.
A cracked windshield should be re-
placed immediately by a qualified re-
pair facility. A cracked windshield
could affect the function of the
supplemental air bag system.
The SRS wiring harness connectors
are yellow and orange for easy iden-
tification.
When selling your vehicle, we request that you
inform the buyer about the supplemental front air
bag system and guide the buyer to the appro-
priate sections in this Owner’s Manual.
Supplemental side air bag and curtain
side-impact and rollover air bag
systemsThe supplemental side air bags are located in
the outside of the seatback of the front seats.
The supplemental curtain side-impact and roll-
over air bags are located in the side roof rails.
These systems are designed to meet voluntary
guidelines to help reduce the risk of injury to
out-of-position occupants.However, all of the
information, cautions and warnings in this
manual still apply and must be followed.
The supplemental side air bags and curtain
side-impact and rollover air bags are designed
to inflate in higher severity side collisions, al-though they may inflate if the forces in another
type of collision are similar to those of a higher
severity side impact. They are designed to inflate
on the side where the vehicle is impacted. They
may not inflate in certain side collisions.
Curtain side-impact and rollover air bags are
also designed to inflate in certain types of roll-
over collisions or near rollovers.
Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an
indication of proper supplemental side air bag
and curtain side-impact and rollover air bag
operation.
When the supplemental side air bag and curtain
side-impact/rollover air bag inflate, a fairly 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 not to inhale
it, as it may cause irritation and choking. Those
with a history of a breathing condition should get
fresh air promptly.
Supplemental side air bags, along with the use
of seat belts, help to cushion the impact force on
the chest of the front occupants. Curtain side-
impact and rollover air bags help to cushion the
impact force to the head of occupants in the
front and rear outboard seating positions. They
can help save lives and reduce serious injuries.
However, an inflating side air bag and curtain
side-impact/rollover air bag may cause abra-
sions or other injuries. Supplemental side air
bags and curtain side-impact and rollover air

identification.
When selling your vehicle, we request that you
inform the buyer about the side air bag and
curtain side-impact/rollover air bag system and
guide the buyer to the appropriate sections in
this Owner’s Manual.
Pre-tensioner seat belt system (For
front seats)
WARNING
The pre-tensioner seat belt cannot be
reused after activation. It must be
replaced together with the retractor
and buckle as a unit.
If the vehicle becomes involved in a
frontal collision but the pre-tensioner
is not activated, be sure to have the
pre-tensioner system checked and, if
necessary, replaced by a NISSAN
dealer.
No unauthorized changes should bemade to any components or wiring of
the pre-tensioner seat belt system.
This is to prevent accidental activa-
tion of the pre-tensioner seat belt or
damage to the pre-tensioner seat
belt operation. Tampering with the
pre-tensioner seat belt system may
result in serious personal injury.
Work around and on the pre-
tensioner seat belt system should be
done by a NISSAN dealer. Installa-
tion of electrical equipment should
also be done by a NISSAN dealer.
Unauthorized electrical test equip-
ment and probing devices should not
be used on the pre-tensioner seat
belt system.
If you need to dispose of the pre-
tensioner or scrap the vehicle, con-
tact a NISSAN dealer. Correct pre-
tensioner disposal procedures are
set forth in the appropriate NISSAN
Service Manual. Incorrect disposal
procedures could cause personal
injury.The front seat pre-tensioner seat belt system
activates in conjunction with the supplemental
front air bag system. 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 occu-
pants.
Also, the front seat pre-tensioner seat belt sys-
tem activates in conjunction with the supple-
mental side-impact/rollover air bag system.
Working with the seat belt retractor, it helps
tighten the seat belt when the vehicle becomes
involved in certain types of rollover collisions or
rear rollovers.
The pre-tensioner is encased with the seat belt’s
retractor. These seat belts are used the same as
conventional seat belts.
When the pre-tensioner seat belt activates,
smoke is released and a loud noise may be
heard. The smoke is not harmful and 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 breathing condition should get
fresh air promptly.
If any abnormality occurs in the pre-tensioner
seat belt system, the supplemental air bag warn-
ing light
will not come on, will flash inter-
mittently or will turn on for 7 seconds and remain
on after the ignition switch has been turned to

SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG
WARNING LIGHTThe supplemental air bag warning light, display-
ing
in the instrument panel, monitors the
circuits of the supplemental front air bag,
supplemental side air bag and curtain side-
impact and rollover air bag systems, and pre-
tensioner seat belt systems. The circuits moni-
tored by the supplemental air bag warning light
are the diagnosis sensor unit, crash zone sen-
sors, satellite sensors, rollover sensors, front air
bag modules, side air bag modules, curtain
side-impact/rollover air bag modules, and pre-
tensioner seat belts and all related wiring.After turning the ignition switch to the ON or
START position, the supplemental air bag warn-
ing light illuminates. The supplemental air bag
warning light will turn off after about 7 seconds
if the system is operational.
If any of the following conditions occur, the
supplemental front air bag, supplemental side air
bag and curtain side-impact/rollover air bag
systems, and pre-tensioner seat belt systems
need servicing:
The supplemental air bag warning light re-
mains 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 supplemental front
air bags, supplemental side air bags, curtain
side-impact/rollover air bags and/or pre-
tensioner seat belt may not operate properly. It
must be checked and repaired. Take your vehicle
to a NISSAN dealer.
WARNING
If the supplemental air bag warninglight is on, it could mean that the
supplemental front air bag, supplemen-
tal side air bag, curtain side-impact/
rollover air bag systems and/or pre-
tensioner seat belt 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.
REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT
PROCEDUREThe supplemental front air bags, supplemental
side air bags, curtain side-impact/rollover air
bags and pre-tensioner seat belt 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. Repair and replacement of these
systems should be done only by a NISSAN
dealer.
When maintenance work is required on the
vehicle, the supplemental front air bags, side air
bags, curtain side-impact/rollover air bags, re-
lated parts and pre-tensioner seat belt should be
pointed out to the person conducting the main-
tenance. The ignition switch should always be in
