Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine This Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) section
contains important information concerning the driver
and front passenger air bags, side air bags, curtain
air bags and pre-tensioner seat belt system.
Front air bag system:this system can help cushion
the impact force to the face and chest of the driver
and front passenger in certain frontal collisions.
NOTE
For further information about the front passen-
ger air bag deactivation system see “Front pas-
senger air bag deactivation system” later in this
section.
Side 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 bag is designed to inflate on the side
where the vehicle is impacted.
Curtain air bag system: this system can help cush-
ion the impact force to the head of an occupant in
the front and rear outer seating position. Curtain air
bags are designed to inflate on the side where the
vehicle is impacted.
SRS is designed to supplementthe crash protec-
tion provided by the driver and front passenger seat
belts and is not designed to substitute them. Seat
belts should always be correctly worn and the driver
and front passenger seated a suitable distance away
from the steering wheel, instrument panel and front
door finishers. For additional information, see “Seat
belts” earlier in this section.
After turning the ignition switch to the ON or START position, the air bag warning light will illu-
minate. The air bag warning light will turn off
after approximately 7 seconds if the system is
operational. See “Warning/indicator lights and
audible reminders” in the “2. Instruments and
controls” section
for further details.
The air bag will operate only when the ignition
switch is in the ON or START position.
WARNING
Driver and front passenger air bags:
The air bags ordinarily will not inflate in the
event of a side impact, rear impact, roll over,
or lower severity frontal collision. Always wear
your seat belts to help reduce the risk or se-
verity of injury in various kinds of accidents.
The seat belts and the air bags are most ef-
fective when you are sitting back and upright
in the seat. Air bags inflate with great force. If
you are unrestrained, leaning forward, sitting
sideways or out of position in any way, you
are at greater risk of injury or death in a crash
and may also receive serious or fatal injuries
from the air bag if you are up against it when
it inflates.
WARNING
Never let children ride unrestrained or extend
their hands or face out of the window. Do not
attempt to hold them on your lap or in your
arms. Some examples of dangerous riding
positions are shown in the previous illustra-
tions.
Children may be severely injured or killed if
not properly restrained when the supplemen-
tal front air bags or supplemental side air bags
inflate. Preteens and children should be prop-
erly restrained in the rear seat if possible.

Warning labels about the air bag system are placed
in the vehicle. Warning labels are for your safety and
the safety of your passengers; do not remove them.
Child restraint on front passenger seat
NISSAN recommends that infants or small children
be seated in a child restraint system on the rear seat
if available. According to accident statistics, chil-
dren are safer when properly restrained in the rear
seat rather than in the front seat.
Front passenger air bag:
Your vehicle is equipped with a front passenger air
bag, you will find an air bag warning label attached
to the passenger side of the instrument panel as
shown in the previous illustration.
This label warns:
“Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearward facing
child restraint on a seat protected by an air bag
in front of it!”
This label warns NOT to fit a rearward facing child
restraint on the front passenger seat without first
deactivating the front passenger air bag.
For instructions on deactivating the front passenger
air bag see “Front passenger air bag deactivation
system” later in this section.
When installing child restraints in your vehicle, al-
ways carefully observe the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions.For more details on the installation of child restraints,
see also “Child restraints” later in this section.
Side air bags:
Your vehicle is equipped with side air bags. You will
find a side air bag warning label attached to the
vehicle’s interior as shown in the previous illustra-
tion.
This label warns you not to let infants or small chil-
dren sit on the front passenger seat as the air bag
may cause serious injury in case of deployment dur-
ing a collision.
AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT
The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) air bag
warning light, displayingin the instrument
panel, monitors the circuits of the front air bag sys-
tem, the side and curtain air bag systems and the
pre-tensioner seat belt system. The circuits moni-
tored by the SRS air bag warning light are: all sen-
sors, air bag modules and all related wiring, and the
pre-tensioner seat belt. After turning the ignition switch to the ON or
START position, the supplemental air bag warn-
ing light illuminates. The air bag warning light will

WARNING
Since your vehicle is equipped with a front
passenger air bag, it is not permitted to install
a rearward facing child restraint on the front
passenger seat unless the front passenger air
bag has been deactivated first.
Do not fit a rearward facing child seat on the
front passenger seat if the air bag activation/
deactivation system is malfunctioning. Your
vehicle must immediately be taken to a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop in such
a situation.
The front passenger air bag indicator light
,
located in the combination meter, illuminates for ap-
proximately 7 seconds and then goes off. This
means the system is operational.
The front passenger air bag indicator light warns of front passenger air bag status. If the front passen-
ger air bag has been deactivated, the light comes on
and stays on as long as the front passenger air bag
switch remains in the OFF position.

If you must install a child restraint system in the front
seat, follow these steps:
1. Deactivate the front passenger air bag. See“Front passenger air bag deactivation system”
earlier in this section for further details.
2. Move the seat to the rearmost position.
3. Adjust the head restraint to its highest position. Remove it if it interferes with the child restraint
installation. In such situations, securely store the
head restraint in the luggage compartment so
that it does not become a dangerous projectile
during a sudden stop or in an accident.
4. Position the child restraint system in the front passenger seat.
Always follow the child restraint system manu-
facturer’s instructions for installation and use. 5. Route the seat belt tongue through the child re-
straint system and insert it into the buckle until
you hear and feel the latch engage.
To prevent slack in the lap belt, secure the shoul-
der belt in place with a locking clip
jA. Use a
locking clip attached to the child restraint sys-
tem, or one which is equivalent in dimensions
and strength.
Be sure to follow the child restraint system
manufacturer’s instructions for belt routing.
6. Slide the seat forwards so that the seat belt fully tightens the child restraint system and the child
restraint reaches the vehicle dashboard.
7. Test the child restraint system before you place the child in it. Check that it does not tilt too far
from side to side. Try to tug it forwards and check
if it is held securely in place.
