PRECAUTIONS ON SUPPLEMENTAL
RESTRAINT SYSTEM
This Supplemental Restraint System (SRS)
section contains important information
concerning the following systems.
.Driver and passenger supplemental
front-impact air bag (INFINITI Advanced
Air Bag System)
. Front seat-mounted side-impact supple-
mental air bag
. Roof-mounted curtain side-impact and
rollover supplemental air bag
. Seat belt with pretensioner
Supplemental front-impact air bag system:
The INFINITI Advanced Air Bag System can
help cushion the impact force to the head
and chest of the driver and front passenger
in certain frontal collisions.
Front seat-mounted side-impact supple-
mental air bag system: This system can
help cushion the impact force to the chest
and pelvis area of the driver and front
passenger in certain side impact collisions.
The supplemental side air bag is designed
to inflate on the side where the vehicle is
impacted. Roof-mounted curtain side-impact and
rollover supplemental air bag system:
This
system can help cushion the impact force
to the head of occupants in front and rear
(2nd and 3rd) outboard seating positions
in certain side impact or rollover collisions.
In a side impact, the curtain and rollover
air bags are designed to inflate on the side
where the vehicle is impacted. In a rollover,
the curtain and rollover air bags on both
sides are designed to inflate. Under both
side-impact and rollover situations, the
curtain air bags will remain inflated for a
short period of time.
These supplemental restraint systems are
designed to supplementthe crash protec-
tion provided by the driver and passenger
seat belts and are not a substitutefor
them. Seat belts should always be cor-
rectly worn and the occupant seated a
suitable distance away from the steering
wheel, instrument panel and door fin-
ishers. (See “Seat belts” earlier in this
section for instructions and precautions on
seat belt usage.)
The supplemental air bags operate only
when the ignition switch is in the ON
position. After pushing the ignition switch to the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warn-
ing light illuminates. The supplemental air
bag warning light will turn off after about
7 seconds if the systems are operational.
Safety

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM

away as practical from the steering
wheel or instrument panel. Always use
the seat belts.
. The driver and front passenger seat belt
buckles are equipped with sensors that
detect if the seat belts are fastened. The
Advanced Air Bag System monitors the
severity of a collision and seat belt
usage then inflates the air bags. Failure
to properly wear seat belts can increase
the risk or severity of injury in an
accident.
. The front passenger seat is equipped
with occupant classification sensors
(weight sensors) that turn the front
passenger air bag OFF under some
conditions. This sensor is only used in
this seat. Failure to be properly seated
and wearing the seat belt can increase
the risk or severity of injury in an
accident. See “Front passenger air bag
and status light” later in this section.
. Keep hands on the outside of the
steering wheel. Placing them inside the
steering wheel rim could increase the
risk of injury if the front air bag inflates.
