when the ignition switch is turned to the ON position
and an empty circle when the related seat belt has
been securely fastened, or after approximately 35
seconds after engine start, or when acknowledged
by the driver pushing the steering wheel switch
ji
(where fitted).
NOTE
If there is a change in (2nd row) rear seat belt
status during a journey then the applicable
symbol for any unbuckled seat will show again
for a further 35 seconds.
The front passenger seat belt warning light
will not illuminate if the seat is unoccupied.
Seat belts for 3rd row seats (where fitted) are
not part of the seat belt warning monitoring
system.
PRECAUTIONS ON SEAT BELT
USAGE
Your chances of being injured in an accident and/or
the severity of injury may be greatly reduced if you
are wearing your seat belt and it is properly ad-
justed. NISSAN strongly encourages you and all of
your passengers to buckle up every time you drive,
even if your seating position is equipped with an air
bag.
WARNING
Be sure to observe the following warnings when
using seat belts. Failure to do so could increase
the chance and/or severity of injury in an acci-
dent.
Seat belts are designed to bear upon the bony
structure of the body, and should be worn low
across the front of the pelvis or the pelvis,
chest and shoulders, as applicable; wearing
the lap section of the belt across the abdomi-
nal area must be avoided.
No modifications or additions should be made
by the user which will either prevent the seat
belt adjusting devices from operating to re-
move slack, or prevent the seat belt assembly
from being adjusted to remove slack.
Seat belts should be adjusted as firmly as
possible, consistent with comfort to provide
the protection for which they have been de-
signed. A slack belt will greatly reduce the
protection afforded to the wearer.
Care should be taken to avoid contamination
of the webbing with polishes, oils and chemi-
cals, and particularly battery acid. Cleaning
may safely be carried out using mild soap and
water. The belt should be replaced if webbing
becomes frayed, contaminated or damaged.
It is essential to replace the entire assembly
after it has been worn in a severe impact even
if damage to the assembly is not obvious.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine 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. Occupants with a history of
breathing difficulties, such as asthma, 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 theoccupant 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 easy
identification.
j1 SRS air bag warning labels
The warning labels are located on the surface
of the sun visor.
j2SRS front passenger air bag warning label
The warning label is located on the outer side
of the instrument panel (passenger side).
j3SRS side air bag warning label
The warning label is located on the side of the
passenger side centre pillar.
Tags are also sewn into the front seat covers.

FEATURE
WARNING
Whilst driving, using the mobile phone is ex-
tremely dangerous because it significantly im-
pairs your concentration and diminishes your re-
action capabilities to sudden changes on the
road, and it may lead to a fatal accident. This
applies to all phone call situations such as when
receiving an incoming call, during a phone con-
versation, when calling through the phone book
search, etc.
CAUTION
Certain country jurisdictions prohibit the use of
the mobile phone in the car without hands-free
support.
This chapter provides information about the NISSAN
hands-free phone system using a Bluetooth
®con-
nection. Bluetooth
®is a wireless radio communication stan-
dard. This system offers a hands-free facility for your
mobile telephone to enhance driving comfort.
NOTE
For models with NISSAN Connect system, see
the separately provided Owner’s Manual.
In order to use your mobile phone with the Blue-
tooth
®of the audio system, the mobile phone must
first be setup. For details, see “BLUETOOTH®
settings” later in this section. Once it has been
setup, the hands-free mode is automatically acti-
vated on the registered mobile phone (via Blue-
tooth
®) when it comes into range.
A notification message appears on the audio display
when the phone is connected, when an incoming
call is being received, as well as when a call is initi-
ated.
When a call is active, the audio system, microphone
(located in the ceiling in front of the rear view mir-
ror), and steering wheel switches enable hands-free
communication.
If the audio system is in use at the time, the radio,
CD, or AUX source mode will be muted and will stay
muted until the active call has ended.
The Bluetooth
®system may be not be able to con-
nect with your mobile phone for the following rea-
sons:
The mobile phone is too far away from the ve-
hicle.
The Bluetooth®mode on your mobile phone has
not been activated.
Your mobile phone has not been paired with the
Bluetooth®system of the audio unit.
The mobile phone does not support Bluetooth®

sential for your safety and comfort. As a driver, you
should be the one who knows best how to drive in
the given circumstances.
ENGINE COLD START PERIOD
Due to the higher engine speeds when the engine is
cold, extra caution must be exercised when select-
ing a gear during the engine warm-up period after
starting the engine.
LOADING LUGGAGE
Loads, their distribution and the attachment of equip-
ment (coupling devices, roof luggage carriers, etc.)
