●Make sure that there is no object placed
under the front passenger’s seat.
Steps
1. Adjust the seat as outlined in the “Seats”
section of the Owner’s Manual. Sit upright,
leaning against the seat back, and centered
on the seat cushion with your feet comfort-
ably extended to the floor.
2. Make sure there are no objects on the occu-
pant’s lap.
3. Fasten the seat belt as outlined in the “Seat
belts” section of the Owner’s Manual.
4. Remain in this position for 30 seconds al-
lowing the system to classify the passenger
before the vehicle is put into motion.
5. Ensure proper classification by checking the
passenger air bag status light.NOTE:
This vehicle’s Occupant Classification Sys-
tem locks the classification during driving
so it is important that you confirm that the
passenger is properly classified prior to
driving. Also, the Occupant Classification
System may recalculate the weight of the
occupant when the vehicle comes to a stop
(i.e stop light, stop sign etc.) , so front pas-
senger seat occupants should continue to
remain seated as outlined above.
Troubleshooting
If you think the passenger air bag status light is
incorrect:
1. If the light is ON with no front passenger and
no objects on the front passenger seat:
This may be due to the following conditions that
may be interfering with the weight sensors:
●An object weighing over 2.2 lbs (1 kg) hang-
ing on the seat or placed in the seat-back
pocket.
●A child seat or other object pressing against
the rear of the seat-back.
●A rear passenger pushing or pulling on the
back of the front passenger’s seat.●The front seat or seat-back is forced back
against an object on the seat or floor behind
it.
●An object placed under the front passen-
ger’s seat.
●An object placed between the seat cushion
and center console or between door and
cushion.
If the vehicle is moving please come to a stop
when it is safe to do so. Check and correct any of
the above conditions. Restart the vehicle and
wait one minute.
NOTE:
A system check will be performed during
which the passenger air bag status light
will remain lit for about 7 seconds initially.
If the light is still on after this, the vehicle should
be checked by a NISSAN dealer as soon as
possible.
2. If the light is ON with an adult occupying the
front passenger seat:
●Occupant is a small adult→the air bag light
is functioning as intended. The front passen-
ger air bag is suppressed.
Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-59

However, if the occupant is not a small adult, then
this may be due to the following conditions that
may be interfering with the weight sensors:
●Occupant is not sitting upright, leaning
against the seat back, and centered on the
seat cushion with feet comfortably extended
to the floor.
●A child seat or other object pressing against
the rear of the seat-back.
●A rear passenger pushing or pulling on the

the above conditions. Restart the vehicle and
wait one minute.NOTE:

which the passenger air bag status light
will remain lit for about 7 seconds initially.
If the light is still on after this, the person should
be advised not to ride in the front passenger seat
and the vehicle should be checked by a NISSAN
dealer as soon as possible.

child restraint occupying the front passen-
ger seat.

on the seat cushion with feet comfortably
extended to the floor.
●The child restraint is not properly installed,
as outlined in the “Child restraints” section of
