the belt operation. Grasp the shoulder belt and pull
quickly forward. The retractor should lock and re-
strict further belt movement.
If the retractor does not lock during these checks or
if you have any questions about the seat belt opera-
tion see a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
SEAT BELT MAINTENANCE
•To clean the seat belt webbings,apply a mild
soap solution or any solution recommended for
cleaning upholstery or carpets. Then brush it,
wipe with a cloth and allow it to dry in the shade.
Do not allow the seat belts to retract until they
are completely dry.
•If dirt builds up in the shoulder belt guide of the
seat belt anchors, the seat belts may retract
slowly. Wipe the shoulder belt guide with a clean,
dry cloth.
•Periodically check to see whether the seat
belt and the metal componentssuch as buck-
les, tongues, retractors, flexible wires and an-
chors work properly. If loose parts, deteriora-
tion, cuts or other damage to the webbing is
found, the entire belt assembly should be re-
placed.
WARNING
•The pre-tensioner seat belt cannot be reused
after activation. It must be replaced together
with the retractor as a unit.
•If the vehicle is 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 or qualified workshop.
•No unauthorised changes should be made to
any components or wiring of the pre-tensioner
seat belt system. This is to prevent accidental
activation of the pre-tensioner seat belt or
damage to the pre-tensioner seat belt opera-
tion. Tampering with the pre-tensioner seat
belt system may result in serious personal in-
jury.
•Work on and around the pre-tensioner system
should be done by an authorised NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop. Installation of
electrical equipment should also be done by a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop. Unau-
thorised electrical test equipment and prob-
ing 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, contact a NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop. Correct pre-tensioner
disposal procedures are set forth in the ap-propriate NISSAN Service Manual. Incorrect
disposal procedures could cause personal in-
jury.
The front seat pre-tensioner seat belt system is acti-
vated in conjunction with the front air bag system. It
helps tighten the seat belt when the vehicle is in-
volved in certain types of collisions by restraining
the seat occupants via the seat belt retractor.
The pre-tensioner is encased with the seat belt’s
retractor. These seat belts are used in the same way
as conventional seat belts.
Additionally, the driver’s side pre-tensioner seat belt
system is also equipped with a lap pre-tensioner.
Both the retractor pre-tensioner and lap pre-ten-
sioner provide significant protection against injury in
an accident and increase the safety performance of
your vehicle.
When the pre-tensioner seat belt system activates,
smoke is released and a loud noise may be heard.
The smoke is harmless, but care should be taken
not to inhale it as it may cause irritation and choking.
When the ignition switch is in the ON or START
position, the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
air bag warning light will illuminate. The SRS air bag
warning light will turn off after approximately 7 sec-
onds if the system is operational. If any of the follow-
ing conditions occur, the air bag and/or pre-ten-
sioner seat belt need servicing and your vehicle must
be taken to the nearest NISSAN dealer or qualified
workshop.
PRE-TENSIONER SEAT BELT
SYSTEM
Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-9
Page 30 of 235
Side and curtain air bags (where fitted)
The supplemental side air bags are located in the
outside of the seatback of the front seats. The
supplemental curtain air bags are located in the roof
side trims. The supplemental side air bags and cur-
tain air bags are designed to inflate in higher sever-
ity side collisions, although 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. Ve-
hicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an indica-
tion of proper supplemental side air bag operation.
When the supplemental side air bag and curtain air
bag inflate, a fairly loud noise may be heard, fol-
lowed by a release of smoke. This smoke is not
harmful and does not indicate a fire. However, care
should be taken not to inhale it, as it may cause irri-
tation and choking. Those with a history of a breath-
ing 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 air bags help
to cushion the impact force to the head of occu-
pants in the front and rear outer seating positions.
They can help save lives and reduce serious inju-
ries. However, an inflating side air bag and curtain
air bag may cause abrasions or other injuries.
Supplemental side air bags and curtain air bags do
not provide restraint to the lower body.
The seat belts should be correctly worn and the
driver and passenger seated upright, and as far as
is practical, away from the side air bag. Rear seat
passengers should be seated as far away as practi-
cal from the door finishers and side roof rails. The
side air bags and curtain air bags inflate quickly in
order to help protect the front occupants. Because
of this, the force of the side air bag and curtain air
bag inflating can increase the risk of injury if the
occupant is too close to, or is against, these air bag
modules during inflation. The side air bag and cur-
tain air bag will deflate quickly after the collision is
over.
WARNING
•Directly after inflation, several air bag system
components will be hot. Do not touch them;
you may severely burn yourself.
•No unauthorised changes should be made to
any components or wiring of the air bag sys-
tem. This is to prevent accidental inflation of
the air bag or damage to the air bag system.
•Tampering with the air bag system may result
in serious personal injury. Tampering includes
making changes to the steering wheel and
the instrument panel assembly by placing ma-
terial over the steering pad and above the
dashboard, or by installing additional trim ma-
terial around the air bag system.
•Do not attach any objects to the steering
wheel pad or to the instrument panel. Objects
attached to the steering wheel pad and in-
strument panel may become dangerous pro-
jectiles and cause injury if the air bag inflates.
•Work on and around the air bag system should
be done by a NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop. Installation of electrical equipment
should be done by a NISSAN dealer or quali-
fied workshop. The yellow SRS wiring har-
nesses* should not be modified or discon-
nected. Unauthorised electrical test equip-
ment and probing devices should not be used
on the air bag system.
* SRS wiring harnesses are covered with yellow
insulation either just before the harness con-
nectors or on the complete harness, for an
easy identification.

monitored by the SRS air bag warning light are: all
sensors, air bag modules and all related wiring, and
the pre-tensioner seat belt.
After turning the ignition switch to the ON or
START position, the supplemental air bag warn-
ing light illuminates. The air bag warning light will
turn off after approximately 7 seconds if the sys-
tem is operational.
If any of the following conditions occurs, the front air
bag, side and curtain air bag systems (where fitted)
and pre-tensioner seat belt need servicing and
should be taken to the nearest NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop:
•The SRS air bag warning light remains on after
approximately 7 seconds.
•The SRS air bag warning light flashes intermit-
tently.
•The SRS air bag warning light does not come on
at all.
Under these conditions, the front air bags, side and
curtain air bags (where fitted) and/or pre-tensioner
seat belt will not operate properly. They must be
checked and repaired.
Repair and replacement procedure
The front air bags, side air bags (where fitted), cur-
tain air bags (where fitted) and pre-tensioner seat
belt are designed to activate on a one-time-only ba-
sis. As a reminder, unless it is damaged, the air bag
warning light will remain illuminated after inflationhas occurred. Repair and replacement of the air bag
system should be done only by a NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop.
When maintenance work is required on the vehicle,
the air bag systems, related parts and pre-tensioner
seat belt should be pointed out to the person con-
ducting the maintenance. The ignition switch should
always be in the LOCK position when working un-
der the bonnet or inside the vehicle.
WARNING
•Once the air bag has inflated or the pre-ten-
sioner seat belt has been activated, the air
bag module and pre-tensioner seat belt will
not function again and must be replaced. The
air bag module should be replaced by a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop. The air
bag module cannot be repaired.
•All air bag systems should be inspected by a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop if there
is any damage to the front end portion of the
vehicle.
•When selling your vehicle, we request that you
inform the buyer about the air bag system and
guide the buyer to the appropriate sections in
this Owner’s Manual.
•If you need to dispose of an air bag or scrap
the vehicle, contact a NISSAN dealer or quali-
fied workshop. Correct air bag disposal pro-
cedures are set forth in the appropriate
NISSAN Service Manual. Incorrect disposal
procedures could cause personal injury.Note that the above illustration is for LHD models.
FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG
INDICATOR LIGHT
WARNING
•Since your vehicle is equipped with a front
passenger air bag, it is not permitted to install
a rear facing child restraint on the front pas-
senger seat unless the front passenger air bag
has been previously deactivated.
•Do not fit a rear facing child seat on the front
passenger seat if the air bag activation/deac-
tivation system is malfunctioning. Your ve-
hicle must be immediately taken to a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop in such situa-
tion.
The front passenger air bag indicator light
lo-
cated on the centre console illuminates for approxi-
mately 7 seconds and then goes off. This means the
system is operational.

WARNING
•Do not leave children or adults who would
normally require the support of others alone
in your vehicle. Pets should also not be left
alone. They could accidentally injure them-
selves or others through inadvertent opera-
tion of the vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny days,
temperatures in a closed vehicle could quickly
become high enough to cause severe or pos-
sibly fatal injuries to people or animals.
•To prevent luggage or packages from sliding
forward during braking, do not stack anything
in the cargo area higher than the seatbacks.
•Secure all cargo with ropes or straps to pre-
vent it from sliding or shifting.
•Failure to follow proper seating instructions
see “Seats” in the “1. Safety — seats, seat
belts and supplemental restraint system” sec-
tion, could result in serious personal injury in
an accident or sudden stop.
EXHAUST GAS (Carbon Monoxide)
WARNING
•Do not breathe exhaust gases; they contain
colourless and odourless carbon monoxide.
Carbon monoxide is a dangerous gas and can
cause unconsciousness or death.
•If you suspect that exhaust fumes are enter-
ing the vehicle, drive with all windows fully
open and have the vehicle inspected immedi-
ately.
•Do not run the engine in closed spaces, such
as a garage, for any longer than is absolutely
necessary.
•Do not park the vehicle with the engine run-
ning for any extended length of time.
•Keep the back door closed while driving, oth-
erwise exhaust gases could be drawn into the
passenger compartment. If you must drive in
this way for some reason, take the following
steps:
1) Open all the windows.
2) Manual air conditioner equipped models:
Move the air intake lever to the
posi-
tion.
Automatic air conditioner equipped mod-
els: Switch on the outside air mode.
3) Set the fan speed control to the maximum
position to circulate the air.
•If electrical wiring or other cable connections
must pass to a trailer through the seal of the
body, follow the manufacturer’s recommen-
dations to prevent carbon monoxide entry into
the vehicle.
•When a vehicle has been stopped in an open
area with its engine running for any significant
length of time, turn the fan on to force outside
air into the vehicle.
•The exhaust system and body should be in-
spected by a NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop whenever:
– the vehicle is raised for service.
– you suspect that exhaust fumes are enter-
ing into the passenger compartment.
– you notice a change in the sound of the
exhaust system.
– you have had an accident involving dam-
age to the exhaust system, underbody, or
rear of the vehicle.
