PRECAUTIONS ON SRS (with
NISSAN Advanced Air Bag System) (if
so equipped)
This SRS section contains important information
concerning the following systems:● Driver and front passenger supplemental
front-impact air bag (NISSAN Advanced Air
Bag System)
● Front seat-mounted side-impact supple-
mental air bag
● Roof-mounted curtain side-impact and roll-
over supplemental air bag
● Seat belt with pretensioner(s) (front seats)
Supplemental front-impact air bag system
The NISSAN Advanced Air Bag System can help
cushion the impact force to the head and chest of
the driver and right front passenger in certain
frontal collisions.
Front seat-mounted side-impact supple-
mental air bag system
This system can help cushion the impact force to
the chest area of the driver and right front pas-
senger in certain side impact collisions. The side
air bag is designed to inflate on the side 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 head 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, curtain air bags
are designed to inflate and remain inflated for a
short time.
The SRS is designed to
supplementthe crash
protection provided by the seat belts and is not a
substitute for them. Seat belts should always be
correctly worn and the occupant seated a suit-
able distance away from the steering wheel, in-
strument panel and door finishers. For additional
information about instructions and precautions
on seat belt usage, refer to “Seat belts” in this
section.
The supplemental air bags operate only
when the ignition switch is in the ON or
START position.
After turning the ignition key to the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warning
light illuminates. The supplemental air bag
warning light will turn off after about 7 sec-
onds if the system is operational.
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT
SYSTEM (SRS)
Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-51

WARNING
●The front air bags ordinarily will not
inflate in the event of a side impact, rear
impact, rollover, or lower severity fron-
tal collision. Always 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 status
light is lit or if the front passenger seat
is unoccupied. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Front passenger air bag
and status light” in this section. ●
The seat belts and the 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 Sys-
tem, if you are unrestrained, leaning
forward, sitting sideways or out of posi-
tion 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
front air bag if you are up against it
when it inflates. Always sit back against the seatback and as far away as practi-
cal from the steering wheel or instru-
ment panel. Always properly use the
seat belts.
● The driver and front passenger seat belt
buckles are equipped with sensors that
detect if the seat belts are fastened. The
NISSAN Advanced Air Bag System
monitors the severity of a collision and
inflates the air bags as needed. 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 sensor
(weight sensor) that turns the front pas-
senger air bag OFF under some condi-
tions. This sensor is only used in this
seat. Failure to be properly seated and
wearing the seat belt can increase the
risk or severity of injury in an accident.
For additional information, refer to
“Front passenger air bag and status
light” in this section.
● Keep hands on the outside of the steer-
ing wheel. Placing them inside the
steering wheel rim could increase the
risk that they are injured when the front
air bag inflates.

1-56Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

WARNING
●The seat belts, the side air bags and
curtain air bags are most effective when
you are sitting well back and upright in
the seat. The side air bag and curtain air
bag inflate with great force. Do not al-
low anyone to place their hand, leg or
face near the side air bag on the side of
the seatback of the front seat or near
the side roof rails. Do not allow anyone
sitting in the front seats or rear out-
board seats (if so equipped) to extend
their hand out of the window or lean
against the door. Some examples of
dangerous riding positions are shown
in the previous illustrations.
WARNING
● When sitting in the rear seat (if so
equipped) , do not hold onto the seat-
back of the front seat. If the side air bag
inflates, you may be seriously injured.
Be especially careful with children, who
should always be properly restrained.
Some examples of dangerous riding
positions are shown in the illustrations.
● Do not use seat covers on the front
seatbacks. They may interfere with side
air bag inflation.

Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-57

WARNING
To ensure proper operation of the passen-
ger’s NISSAN Advanced Air Bag System,
please observe the following items.
●Do not allow a passenger in the rear
bench seats (if so equipped) to push or
pull on the seatback pocket.
● Do not place heavy loads heavier than
1 kg (2.2 lb) on the seatback, head re-
straint or in the seatback pocket.
● Do not store luggage behind the seat
that can press into the seatback.
● Do not position the front passenger
seat so it contacts the rear bench seats
(if so equipped) . If the front seat does
contact the rear bench seats (if so
equipped) , the air bag system may de-
termine a sensor malfunction has oc-
curred and the front passenger air bag
status light may illuminate and the
supplemental air bag warning light may
flash. ●
If a forward-facing child restraint is in-
stalled in the front passenger seat, do
not position the front passenger seat so
the child restraint contacts the instru-
ment panel. If the child restraint does
contact the instrument panel, the sys-
tem may determine the seat as occu-
pied and the passenger air bag may
deploy in a collision. Also the front pas-
senger air bag status light may not illu-
minate. For additional information
about installing and using child re-
straints, refer to “Child restraints” in
this section.
● Confirm the operating condition with
the front passenger air bag status light.
● If you notice that the front passenger air
bag status light is not operating as de-
scribed in this section, get the occupant
classification system checked. It is rec-
ommended that you take your vehicle to
a NISSAN dealer for this service.
● Until you have confirmed with your
dealer that your passenger seat occu-
pant classification system is working
properly, position the occupants in the
rear seating positions (if so equipped) .
Do not use the front seat or transport a
child in the vehicle (Single Cab) . This vehicle is equipped with the NISSAN Ad-
vanced Air Bag System for the driver and front
passenger seats.
All of the information, cau-
tions and warnings in this manual still ap-
ply and must be followed.
The driver supplemental front-impact air bag is
located in the center of the steering wheel. The
front passenger supplemental front-impact air
bag is mounted in the dashboard 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 sys-
tem operation.
The NISSAN Advanced Air Bag System monitors
information from the crash zone sensor and the
Air bag Control Unit (ACU) . Inflator operation is
based on the severity of a collision and seat belt
usage for the driver. For the front passenger, the
occupant classification sensor is also monitored.
Based upon the information from the sensor, only
one front air bag may inflate in a crash, depending
on the crash severity. Additionally, the front pas-
senger air bag may be automatically turned off
under some conditions, depending on the weight
detected on the front passenger seat and how
the seat belt is used. If the front passenger air bag
Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-59

is OFF, the front 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) . For additional information, refer to “Front
passenger air bag and status light” in this section.
One front air bag inflating does not indicate im-
proper performance of the system.
If you have any questions about your air bag
system, it is recommended that you contact
NISSAN or a NISSAN dealer. If you are consid-
ering modification of your vehicle due to a disabil-
ity, you may also contact NISSAN. Contact infor-
mation 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 the 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.
Front air bags, along with the use of seat belts,
help to cushion the impact force on the face 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
front 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 front air bag module during infla-
tion.
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 placing the ignition switch in the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warning
light illuminates. The supplemental air bag
warning light will turn off after about 7 sec-
onds if the system is operational.
Front passenger air bag and status light
WARNING
The front passenger air bag is designed to
automatically turn OFF under some condi-
tions. 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 con-
cerning the use of seats, seat belts and
child restraints can increase the risk or
severity of injury in an accident.

properly for the most effective protection by the
seat belt and supplemental air bag.
NISSAN recommends that pre-teens and chil-
dren be properly restrained in a rear seat (if so
equipped) . NISSAN also recommends that ap-
propriate child restraints and booster seats be
properly installed in a rear seat (if so equipped) . If
this is not possible, the occupant classification
sensor is designed to operate as described
above to turn the front passenger air bag OFF for
specified child restraints as required by the regu-
lations. Failing to properly secure child restraints
and to use the ALR mode may allow the restraint
to tip or move in a collision or sudden stop. This
can also result in the passenger air bag inflating
in a crash instead of being OFF. For additional
information about proper use and installation,
refer to “Child restraints” in this section.
If the front passenger seat is not occupied, the
front 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 occupants
are seated and restrained properly.Using the front passenger air bag status light, you
can monitor when the front passenger air bag is
automatically turned OFF with the seat occupied.
The light will not illuminate when the front pas-
senger seat is unoccupied.
If an adult occupant is in the seat but the front
passenger air bag status light is illuminated (indi-
cating 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 not using the seat belt properly.
If a child restraint must be used in the front seat,
the front 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. Always make sure that the child restraint is
installed properly, the seat belt is used properly
and the occupant is positioned properly.
If necessary, a NISSAN dealer can check system
operation by using a special tool. Until you have
confirmed with a dealer that your air bag is work-
ing properly, reposition the occupant or child
restraint in a rear seat (if so equipped) . Do not
use the front seat or transport a child in the
vehicle (Single Cab) .
The NISSAN Advanced Air Bag System and front
passenger air bag status light will take a few
seconds to register a change in the front passen-
ger seat status. For example, if a large adult who
is sitting in the front passenger seat exits thevehicle, the front passenger air bag status light
will go from OFF to ON for a few seconds and
then to OFF. This is normal system operation and
does not indicate a malfunction.
If a malfunction occurs in the front passenger air
bag system, the supplemental air bag warning
light
, located in the meter and gauges area
of the instrument panel, will blink. Have the sys-
tem checked. It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
Normal operation
In order for the occupant classification sensor
system to classify the front passenger based on
weight, please follow the precautions and steps
outlined below:
Precautions
● Make sure that there are no objects weigh-
ing over 2.2 lbs (1 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 push-
ing or pulling on the back of the front pas-
senger seat.
