ment of these systems should be done only by a
NISSAN dealer.
When maintenance work is required on the
vehicle, the front air bags, side air bags, curtain
and rollover air bags and pretensioners and
related parts should be pointed out to the

switch should always be in the LOCK position
when working under the hood or inside the
vehicle.
WARNING
.Once a supplemental air bag has
inflated, the air bag module will not
function again and must be re-
placed. Additionally, if any of the
supplemental front air bags inflate,
the activated pretensioners must
also be replaced. The air bag mod-
ule and pretensioner system should
be replaced by a NISSAN dealer.
The air bag modules and preten-
sioner system cannot be repaired.
.The front air bag, side air bag and

mental air bag or pretensioner sys-
tems, or scrap the vehicle, contact a

indicates the engine coolant
temperature.
The engine coolant temperature is within the
normal range when the gauge is within the zone
*2
shown in the illustration.
The engine coolant temperature varies with the
outside air temperature and driving conditions.
CAUTION
If the gauge indicates engine coolant
temperature near the hot (H) end of the
normal range, reduce vehicle speed to
decrease temperature. If gauge is over
the normal range, stop the vehicle as
soon as safely possible. If the engine is
overheated, continued operation of the
vehicle may seriously damage the en-
