NISSAN 2014 LEAF - Owner's Manual - Manual (Page 122)

• The driver and front passenger seat
belt buckles are equipped with sen-
sors that detect if the seat belts are
fastened. The Advanced Air Bag Sys-
tem monitors the severity of a collision
and seat belt usage then 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 occupant classification sensors
(weight sensors) that turn the front
passenger air bag OFF under some
conditions. 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 acci-
dent. See “Front passenger air bag
and status light”.
• Keep hands on the outside of the
steering wheel. Placing them inside
the steering wheel rim could increase
the risk that they are injured if the front
air bag inflates.
