SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING
LIGHT
GUID-B383DCA3-1C40-4754-971A-A1BC875CB104The supplemental air bag warning light,
displayingin the instrument panel,
monitors the circuits of the supplemental
front-impact air bag, front seat-mounted
side-impact supplemental air bag, door-
mounted curtain side-impact supplemental
air bag, and seat belt pretensioner sys-
tems. The monitored circuits include the Air
bag Control Unit (ACU), satellite sensors,
crash zone sensor, occupant classification
system, front air bag modules, side air bag
modules, curtain air bag modules, preten-
sioner, front passenger air bag status light and all related wiring.
When the ignition switch is in the ON
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
front air bag, side air bag, curtain air bag
and pretensioner systems need servicing:
.
The supplemental air bag warning light
remains on approximately 7 seconds
after the ignition switch is pushed to
the ON position.
. The supplemental air bag warning light
flashes intermittently.
. The supplemental air bag warning light
does not come on at all.
Under these conditions, the front air bag,
side air bag, curtain air bag or pretensioner
systems may not operate properly. They
must be checked and repaired. Take your
vehicle to the nearest INFINITI retailer.
WARNING
If the supplemental air bag warning light is
on, it could mean that the front air bag, side
air bag, curtain air bag and/or pretensioner

systems will not operate in an accident. To
help avoid injury to yourself or others, have
your vehicle checked by a retailer as soon as
possible.
REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT PROCE-
DURE
GUID-50212D88-2A8B-4767-BD8B-779D3D757EAFThe front air bags, side air bags, curtain air
bags and pretensioners are designed to
activate on a one-time-only basis. As a
reminder, unless it is damaged, the sup-
plemental air bag warning light will remain
illuminated after inflation has occurred.
Repair and replacement of these systems
should be done only by an INFINITI retailer.
When maintenance work is required on the
vehicle, the front air bags, side air bags,
curtain air bags, pretensioners and related
parts should be pointed out to the person
conducting the maintenance. The ignition
switch should always be in the LOCK
position when working under the hood or
inside the vehicle.
WARNING
.Once a front air bag, side air bag, or
curtain air bag has inflated, the air bag module will not function again and must
be replaced. Additionally, the activated
pretensioner must also be replaced. The
air bag module and pretensioner system
should be replaced by an INFINITI
retailer. The air bag module and preten-
sioner system cannot be repaired.
. The front air bag, side air bag, curtain air
bag and the pretensioner system should
be inspected by an INFINITI retailer if
there is any damage to the front end or
side portion of the vehicle.
. If you need to dispose of the supple-
mental air bag or pretensioner systems
or scrap the vehicle, contact an INFINITI
retailer. Correct supplemental air bag
and seat belt pretensioner system dis-
posal procedures are set forth in the
appropriate INFINITI Service Manual.
Incorrect disposal procedures could
cause personal injury.
SSS0983
POP-UP ROLL BAR SYSTEMGUID-24ECAD3E-4A9E-45EA-AE2E-575767614C4FThe pop-up roll bars are designed to
deploy during rollover collisions. The pop-
up roll bars are located behind the rear
seatback and deploy when the Air bag
Control Unit (ACU) judges that the vehicle
will overturn.
The pop-up roll bars, with proper seat belt
usage, help preserve occupant headroom
in a rollover collision and can help reduce
the risk of occupant injury.

WARNING/INDICATOR LIGHTS AND
AUDIBLE REMINDERS

If an ABS malfunction occurs, the anti-lock
function is turned off. The brake system
then operates normally, but without anti-
lock assistance. (See“Brake system”(P.5-

it to be safe, drive carefully to the
nearest service station for repairs. Otherwise, have your vehicle towed
because driving it could be dangerous.
. Pressing the brake pedal with the
engine stopped and/or low brake fluid
level may increase your stopping dis-
tance and braking will require greater
pedal effort as well as pedal travel.
. If the brake fluid level is below the
minimum or MIN mark on the brake fluid
reservoir, do not drive until the brake
system has been checked at an INFINITI
retailer.
Charge warning lightGUID-395A5584-740A-4FA6-93D2-68A9BB3FD46EIf the light comes on while the engine is
