LIGHT
GUID-FC2CCCAD-ABA5-4075-9F93-F2472626804EThe supplemental air bag warning light,
displaying in the instrument panel, moni-
tors the circuits for the air bag systems,
pretensioners 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.

GUID-14E865CD-CF42-4FB6-85F1-2404D96FDE4EThe 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 should
be replaced by an INFINITI retailer. The air bag module and pretensioner 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 or scrap
the vehicle, contact an INFINITI retailer.
Correct supplemental air bag and seat
belt pretensioner system disposal pro-
cedures are set forth in the appropriate
INFINITI Service Manual. Incorrect dis-
posal procedures could cause personal
injury.
