NISSAN 2008 Altima Hybrid - Owner's Manual - Manual (Page 74)

The front seat-mounted side-impact
supplemental air bags and roof-mounted
curtain side-impact supplemental air bags
operate only when the ignition switch is in
the ON position.
After pushing the ignition switch to the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warning
light illuminates. The supplemental air bag
warning light will turn off after about 7
seconds if the system is operational.
WARNING
● Do not place any objects near the seat-
back of the front seats. Also, do not
place any objects (an umbrella, bag,
etc.) between the front door finisher
and the front seat. Such objects may
become dangerous projectiles and
cause injury if the front seat-mounted
side-impact supplemental air bag
inflates.
● Right after inflation, several front seat-
mounted side-impact supplemental air
bag and roof-mounted curtain side-
impact supplemental air bag system
components 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 front seat-mounted side-impact
supplemental air bag and roof-mounted
curtain side-impact supplemental air
bag system. This is to prevent acciden-
tal inflation of the side air bag and cur-
tain side-impact air bag or damage to
the front seat-mounted side-impact
supplemental air bag and roof-mounted
curtain side-impact supplemental air
bag system.
● Do not make unauthorized changes to
your vehicle’s electrical system, sus-
pension system or side panel. This
could affect proper operation of the
front seat-mounted side-impact
supplemental air bag and roof-mounted
curtain side-impact supplemental air
bag system.
● Tampering with the front seat-mounted
side-impact supplemental air bag sys-
tem may result in serious personal in-
jury. For example, do not change the
front seats by placing material near the
seatbacks or by installing additional
trim material, such as seat covers,
around the side air bag.
● Work around and on the roof-mounted
curtain side-impact supplemental air
bag system should be done by a
NISSAN dealer. Installation of electrical
equipment should also be done by a
NISSAN dealer. The SRS wiring har-
nesses* should not be modified or dis-
connected. Unauthorized electrical test
equipment and probing devices should
not be used on the front seat-mounted
side-impact supplemental air bag and
roof-mounted curtain side-impact
supplemental air bag system.
* The SRS wiring harness connectors are
yellow and orange for easy identification.
When selling your vehicle, we request that you
inform the buyer about the front seat-mounted
side-impact supplemental air bag and roof-
mounted curtain side-impact supplemental air
bag system and guide the buyer to the appropri-
ate sections in this Owner’s Manual.
