NISSAN 2014 LEAF - Owner's Manual - Manual (Page 121)

WARNING
• The front air bags ordinarily will not in-
flate 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 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. See “Front passenger
air bag and status light”.
• 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 for-
ward, 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 practical from the steering
wheel or instrument panel. Always use
the seat belts.
