2008 NISSAN TITAN warning light

When the ignition key is in the ON or START
position, the supplemental air bag warning light
illuminates for about 7 seconds and then turns
off. This means the system is operational.
If any of the following conditions occur, the
supplemental front air bag, front seat-mounted
side-impact supplemental air bag, roof-mounted
curtain side-impact and rollover supplemental air
bag and pretensioner systems need servicing:
cThe supplemental air bag warning light re-
mains on after approximately 7 seconds.
cThe supplemental air bag warning light
flashes intermittently.
cThe supplemental air bag warning light does
not come on at all.
Under these conditions, the supplemental front
air bag, front seat-mounted side-impact supple-
mental air bags and roof-mounted curtain side-
impact and rollover supplemental air bag or pre-
tensioner systems may not operate properly. It
must be checked and repaired. Take your vehicle
to the nearest NISSAN dealer.WARNING
If the supplemental air bag warning light
is on, it could mean that the supplemental
front air bag, front seat-mounted side-
impact supplemental air bag, roof-
mounted curtain side-impact and rollover
supplemental air bag systems and/or pre-
tensioner systems will not operate in an
accident. To help avoid injury to yourself
or others, have your vehicle checked by a
NISSAN dealer as soon as possible.
Repair and replacement procedure
The supplemental front air bags, front seat-
mounted side-impact supplemental air bags,
roof-mounted curtain side-impact and rollover
supplemental air bags and seat belts with preten-
sioner are designed to inflate on a one-time-only
basis. As a reminder, unless it is damaged, the
supplemental air bag warning light remains illu-
minated after inflation has occurred. Repair and
replacement of these supplemental air bag sys-
tems should be done only by a NISSAN dealer.
When maintenance work is required on the ve-
hicle, the supplemental front air bags, front seat-
mounted side-impact supplemental air bags,
roof-mounted curtain side-impact and rollover
supplemental air bags, seat belts pretensioners
and related parts should be pointed out to theperson performing the maintenance. The ignition
key should always be in the LOCK position when
working under the hood or inside the vehicle.
WARNING
cOnce a supplemental front air bag, front
seat-mounted side-impact supplemen-
tal air bags, roof-mounted curtain side-
impact and rollover 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 seat belts with pretensioners
must also be replaced. The air bag mod-
ule and seat belts with pretensioners
should be replaced by a NISSAN dealer.
The air bag module and seat belts with
pretensioners cannot be repaired.
cThe supplemental front air bag, roof-
mounted curtain side-impact and roll-
over supplemental air bag systems, and
the seat belts with pretensioners
should be inspected by a NISSAN
dealer if there is any damage to the
front end or side portion of the vehicle.

System (ABS)
warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON position,
the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning light
illuminates and then turns off. This indicates the
ABS is operational.
If the ABS warning light illuminates while the
engine is running, or while driving, it may indicate
the ABS is not functioning properly. Have the
system checked by a NISSAN dealer.
If an ABS malfunction occurs, the anti-lock func-
tion is turned off. The brake system then operates
