PRECAUTIONS ON SRS
This SRS section contains important in-
formation concerning the following sys-
tems:
.Driver and front passenger supple-
mental front-impact air bag (NISSAN
Advanced Air Bag System)
. Driver and front passenger supple-
mental knee air bag
. Front seat-mounted side-impact sup-
plemental air bag
. Rear outboard seat-mounted side-
impact supplemental air bag
. Front central seat-mounted side-im-
pact supplemental air bag (if so
equipped)
. Roof-mounted curtain side-impact
and rollover supplemental air bag
. Seat belt with pretensioner (front and
rear outboard seats)
Supplemental front-impact air bag sys-
tem: The NISSAN Advanced Air Bag Sys-
tem can help cushion the impact force to
the head and chest of the driver and front
passenger in certain frontal collisions.
Driver and front passenger supplemen-
tal knee air bag system: This system can
help cushion the impact force to the
driver’s and front passenger’s knees in
certain collisions. Front seat-mounted side-impact sup-
plemental air bag system:This system
can help cushion the impact force to the
chest and pelvic area of the driver and
front passenger in certain side impact
collisions. The side air bag is designed to
inflate on the side where the vehicle is
impacted.
Rear outboard seat-mounted side-im-
pact supplemental air bag system:
This
system can help cushion the impact force
to the chest and pelvic area of the rear
outboard seat passengers in certain side-
impact collisions. The side air bags are
designed to inflate on the side where the
vehicle is impacted.
Front central seat-mounted side-im-
pact supplemental air bag (if so
equipped): This system can help cushion
the impact force to the head area of the
driver and front passenger in certain side-
impact collisions. The front central side-
impact air bag is designed to inflate in the
front central area where the vehicle is
impacted.
Roof-mounted curtain side-impact and
rollover supplemental air bag system:
This system can help cushion the impact
force to the heads of occupants in front
and rear outboard seating positions in
certain side impact or rollover collisions.
In a side-impact, the curtain air bags are designed to inflate on the side where the
vehicle is impacted. In a rollover, the
curtain air bags on both sides are de-
signed to inflate. Under both side-impact
and rollover situations, the curtain air
bags will remain inflated for a short
period of time.
These supplemental restraint systems are
designed to
supplement the crash pro-
tection provided by the driver, passenger
and rear outboard seat belts and are not
a substitute for them. Seat belts should
always be correctly worn and the occu-
pant seated a suitable distance away
from the steering wheel, instrument pa-
nel and door finishers. (See “Seat belts”
(P.1-13) for instructions and precautions
on seat belt usage.)
The supplemental air bags operate only
when the ignition switch is in the ON
position.
After the ignition is placed in the ON
position, the supplemental air bag
warning light illuminates. The supple-
mental air bag warning light will turn
off after about 7 seconds if the systems
are operational.

WARNING
.The front air bags ordinarily will
not inflate in the event of a side
impact, rear impact, rollover, or
lower severity frontal collision.
Always wear your seat belts to
help reduce the risk or severity of
injury in various kinds of acci-
dents.
. The front passenger air bag and
passenger knee air bag will not
inflate if the front passenger air
bag status light is lit. See “Front
passenger air bag and status
light” (P.1-54).
. The seat belts and the front air
bags are most effective when you
are sitting well back and upright
in the seat with both feet on the
floor. The front air bags inflate
with great force. Even with the
NISSAN Advanced Air Bag System,
if you are unrestrained, leaning
forward, sitting sideways or out
of position in any way, you are at
greater risk of injury or death in a
crash. You may also receive ser-
ious or fatal injuries from the
front air bag if you are up against
it when it inflates. Always sit back

NISSAN ADVANCED AIR BAG SYS-
TEM (front seats)
WARNING
To ensure proper operation of the
passenger’s Advanced Air Bag sys-
tem, please observe the following
items.
.Do not allow a passenger in the
rear seat to push or pull on the
seatback pocket.
. Do not place heavy loads heavier
than 9.1 lbs (4 kg) on the seat-
back, head restraint or in the
seatback pocket.
. Make sure nothing is pressing
against the rear of the seatback,

such as a child restraint installed
in the rear seat or an object
stored on the floor.
. Make sure that there is no object
placed under the front passenger
seat.
. Make sure that there is no object
placed between the seat cushion
and center console or between
the seat cushion and the door.
. Be sure that the front passenger
seat does not contact the rear
seat, instrument panel, etc., or the
head restraint does not contact
the roof.
. Do not position the front passen-
ger seat so it contacts the rear
seat. If the front seat does con-
tact the rear seat, the air bag
system may determine a sensor
malfunction has occurred and the
front passenger air bag status
light may illuminate and the sup-
plemental air bag warning light
may flash.
. If a forward facing child restraint
is installed in the front passenger
seat, do not position the front
passenger seat so the child re-
straint contacts the instrument
panel. If the child restraint does contact the instrument panel, the
system may determine the seat is
occupied and the passenger air
bag and front passenger knee air
bag may deploy in a collision.
Also the front passenger air bag
status light may not illuminate.
See “Child restraints” (P.1-23) for
information about installing and
using child restraints.
. Confirm the operating condition
with the front passenger air bag
status light.
. If you notice that the front pas-
senger air bag status light is not
operating as described in this
section, it is recommended you
visit a NISSAN dealer to check the
passenger seat Advanced Air Bag
System.
. Until you have confirmed with
your dealer that your passenger
seat Advanced Air Bag is working
properly, position the occupants
in the rear seating positions.
This vehicle is equipped with the NISSAN
Advanced Air Bag System for the driver
and front passenger seats. This system is
designed to meet certification require-
ments under U.S. regulations. It is also
permitted in Canada. All of the informa- tion, cautions and warnings in this
manual apply and must be followed.
The driver supplemental front-impact air
bag is located in the center of the
steering wheel. The passenger supple-
mental front-impact air bag is mounted in
the instrument panel above the glove
box. The front air bags are designed to
inflate in higher severity frontal collisions,
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 damage (or lack of it) is
not always an indication of proper front
air bag operation.
The NISSAN Advanced Air Bag System has
dual stage air bag inflators. The system
monitors information from the Air bag
Control Unit (ACU), seat belt buckle sen-
sors and the occupant classification sen-
sors (weight sensors). Inflator operation is
based on the severity of a collision and
seat belt usage for the driver. For the
front passenger, the occupant classifica-
tion sensors are also monitored. 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 occupants are belted
or unbelted. Additionally, the front pas-
senger air bag and front passenger knee
Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-53

1-54Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
air bag may be automatically turned OFF
under some conditions, depending on the
information provided by the occupant
classification sensors. If the front passen-
ger air bag and front passenger knee air
bag are OFF, the front passenger air bag
status light will be illuminated. (See “Front
passenger air bag and status light” (P.1-
54) for further details.) One front air bag
inflating does not indicate improper per-
formance of the system.
If you have any questions about your air
bag system, it is recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer to obtain information
about the system. If you are considering
modification of your vehicle due to a
disability, you may also contact NISSAN.
Contact information is contained in the
front of this Owner’s Manual.
When a 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 not to inhale it, as it may cause
irritation and choking. Those with a
history of a breathing condition should
get fresh air promptly.
Front air bags, along with the use of seat
belts, help to cushion the impact force on
the head and chest of the front occu-
pants. They can help save lives and
reduce serious injuries. However, an in-flating front air bag may cause facial
abrasions or other injuries. Front air bags,
other than the driver’s and front passen-
ger’s knee 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 front air
bags inflate quickly in order to help
protect the front occupants. 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 air bag module during inflation.
The front air bags deflate quickly after a
collision.
The front air bags operate only when
the ignition switch is in the ON position.
After the ignition is placed in the ON
position, the supplemental air bag
warning light illuminates. The supple-
mental air bag warning light will turn
off after about 7 seconds if the system
is operational.

Front passenger air bag and status
light
WARNING
The front passenger air bag and
front passenger knee air bag are
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 ne-
cessary for most effective protec-
tion. Failure to follow all
instructions in this manual concern-

1-58Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
front passenger air bag status light is
illuminated (indicating that the front pas-
senger air bag and front passenger knee
air bag are OFF), it could be that the
person is a small adult, or is not sitting on
the seat properly.
If a child restraint must be used in the
front seat, the front passenger air bag
status light may or may not be illumi-
nated, depending on the size of the child
and the type of child restraint being used.
If the front passenger 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 properly and the occu-
pant is positioned properly. If the front
passenger air bag status light is not
illuminated, reposition the occupant or
child restraint in a rear seat.
If the front passenger air bag status light
will not illuminate even though you be-
lieve that the child restraint, the seat belts
and the occupant are properly positioned,
it is recommended that you take your
vehicle to a NISSAN dealer. A NISSAN
dealer can check the system status by
using a special tool. However, until you
have confirmed with your dealer that
your air bag is working properly, reposi-tion the occupant or child restraint in a
rear seat.
The NISSAN Advanced Air Bag System
and front passenger air bag status light
will take a few seconds to register a
change in the passenger seat status. This
is normal system operation and does not
indicate a malfunction.
If a malfunction occurs in the front
passenger air bag system, the supple-
mental air bag warning light
, located
in the meters and gauges area, will
illuminated (blinking or steadily lit). Have
the system checked. It is recommended
you visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
Normal operation:
In order for the occupant classification
sensor system to classify the front pas-
senger based on weight, please follow the
precautions and steps outlined below:
Precautions:
. Make sure that there are no objects
weighing over 9.1 lbs (4 kg) hanging on
the seat or placed in the seatback
pocket.
. Make sure that a child restraint or
other object is not pressing against
the rear of the seatback.
. Make sure that a rear passenger is not
pushing or pulling on the back of the
front passenger seat. .
Make sure that the front passenger
seat or seatback is not forced back
against an object on the seat or floor
behind it.
. Make sure that there is no object
placed under the front passenger
seat.
. Make sure that the front passenger
seat head restraint does not contact
the roof when adjusting the front
passenger seat.
Steps:
1. Adjust the seat as outlined. (See “Seats” (P.1-3).) Sit upright, leaning
against the seatback, and centered
on the seat cushion with your feet
comfortably extended to the floor.
2. Make sure there are no objects on your lap.
3. Fasten the seat belt as outlined. (See “Seat belts” (P.1-13).) Front passenger
seat belt buckle status is monitored
by the occupant classification system,
and is used as an input to determine
occupancy status. So, it is highly
recommended that the front passen-
ger fasten their seat belt.
4. Remain in this position for 30 seconds allowing the system to classify the
front passenger before the vehicle is
put into motion.

1-60Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
.The front passenger seat head re-
straint contacting the roof.
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 1 minute.
NOTE:
A system check will be performed dur-
ing which the front passenger air bag
status light will remain lit for about 7
seconds initially.
If the light is still OFF after this, the small
adult, child or child restraint should be
repositioned in the rear seat and it is
recommended that the vehicle should be
checked by a NISSAN dealer as soon as
possible.
3. If the light is OFF with no front passenger and no objects on the front passenger
seat, the vehicle should be checked as
soon as possible. It is recommended you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
Other supplemental front-impact
air bag precautions
WARNING
.Do not place any objects on the
steering wheel pad or on the
instrument panel. Also, do not place any objects between any
occupant and the steering wheel
or instrument panel. Such objects
may become dangerous projec-
tiles and cause injury if the front
air bags inflate.
. Do not place objects with sharp
edges on the seat. Also, do not
place heavy objects on the seat
that will leave permanent impres-
sions in the seat. Such objects
can damage the seat or occupant
classification sensors (weight
sensors). This can affect the op-
eration of the air bag system and
result in serious personal injury.
. Do not use water or acidic clea-
ners (hot steam cleaners) on the
seat. This can damage the seat or
occupant classification sensors.
This can also affect the operation
of the air bag system and result in
serious personal injury.
. Immediately after inflation, sev-
eral front air bag system compo-
nents will be hot. Do not touch
them; you may severely burn
yourself.
. No unauthorized changes should
be made to any components or
wiring of the supplemental air bag system. This is to prevent
accidental inflation of the supple-
mental air bag or damage to the
supplemental air bag system.
. Do not make unauthorized
changes to your vehicle’s electri-
cal system, suspension system or
front end structure. This could
affect proper operation of the
front air bag system.
. Tampering with the front air bag
system may result in serious per-
sonal injury. Tampering includes
changes to the steering wheel
and the instrument panel assem-
bly by placing material over the
steering wheel pad and above the
instrument panel or by installing
additional trim material around
the air bag system.
. Removing or modifying the front
passenger seat may affect the
function of the air bag system
and result in serious personal
injury.
. Modifying or tampering with the
front passenger seat may result
in serious personal injury. For
example, do not change the front
seats by placing material on the
seat cushion or by installing ad-
