PRECAUTIONS ON

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT

SYSTEM

This Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) sec-

tion contains important information concerning

the following systems:

● Driver and 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

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 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 front passenger in certain side impact

collisions. The side air bags are 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 and roll-

over air bags are designed to inflate on the side

where the vehicle is impacted. In a rollover, both

curtain and rollover air bags are designed to

inflate and remain inflated for a short time.
These supplemental restraint systems are de-

signed to supplement the crash protection pro-

vided by the seat belts and are not a substitute

for them. Seat belts should always be correctly

worn and the occupant seated a suitable dis-

tance away from the steering wheel, instrument

panel and door finishers. See “Seat belts” earlier

in this section for instructions and precautions on

seat belt usage.
The supplemental air bags operate only

when the ignition switch is in the ON or

START position.
After placing 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.
