WARNING
.Never let children ride unrestrained
or extend their hands or face out of
the window. Do not attempt to hold
them in your lap or arms. Some
examples of dangerous riding posi-
tions are shown in the illustrations.
. Children may be severely injured or
killed when the front air bags, side
air bags or curtain and rollover air
bags inflate if they are not properly
restrained. Pre-teens and children
should be properly restrained in the
rear seat, if possible.
. Even with the NISSAN Advanced Air
Bag System, never install a rear-
facing child restraint in the front
seat. An inflating front air bag could
seriously injure or kill your child.
See “Child restraints” earlier in this
section for details.

WARNING
Front seat-mounted side-impact sup-
plemental air bags and roof-mounted
curtain side-impact and rollover supple-
mental air bags (Hardtop models) or
door-mounted curtain side-impact and
rollover supplemental air bags (Cross-
Cabriolet models):
.The side air bags and curtain air
bags ordinarily will not inflate in the
event of a frontal impact, rear im-
pact or lower severity side collision.
Always wear your seat belts to help reduce the risk or severity of injury
in various kinds of accidents.
. The seat belts and air bags are most
effective when you are sitting well
back and upright in the seat with
both feet on the floor. The air bags
inflate with great force. Do not allow
anyone to place their hand, leg or
face near the side air bag on the
side of the seatback of the front
seat, near the side roof rails (Hard-
top models) , or near the top of the
door finisher (CrossCabriolet mod-
els) . Do not allow anyone sitting in
the front seats or rear outboard
seats to extend their hand out of
the window or lean against the
door. Some examples of dangerous
riding positions are shown in the
previous illustrations.
. When sitting in the rear seat, do not
hold onto the seatback of the front
seat. If the side air bag inflates, you
may be seriously injured. Be espe-
cially careful with children, who
should always be properly re-
strained. Some examples of danger-
ous riding positions are shown in
the illustrations. .
Do not use seat covers on the front
seatbacks. They may interfere with
side air bag inflation.

VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM (if so
equipped)
GUID-3A2129E5-3F98-44E7-8D33-56C1DC801E7AThe vehicle security system provides visual and
audio alarm signals if someone opens the doors
or lift gate/trunk when the system is armed. It is
not, however, a motion detection type system
that activates when a vehicle is moved or when a
vibration occurs.
The system helps deter vehicle theft but cannot
prevent it, nor can it prevent the theft of interior
or exterior vehicle components in all situations.
Always secure your vehicle even if parking for a
brief period. Never leave your keys in the vehicle,
and always lock it when unattended. Be aware
of your surroundings, and park in secure, well-lit
areas whenever possible.
Many devices offering additional protection,
such as component locks, identification markers,
and tracking systems, are available at auto
supply stores and specialty shops. Your
NISSAN dealer may also offer such equipment.
Check with your insurance company to see if
you may be eligible for discounts for various
theft protection features.

on for about 30 seconds. The vehicle
security system is now pre-armed. After
about 30 seconds the vehicle security
system automatically shifts into the armed
phase. The security light begins to flash
once every approximately 3 seconds. If,
during this 30-second pre-arm time period,
the door is unlocked, or the ignition switch is
pushed to ACC or ON, the system will not
arm.
Even when the driver and/or passengers
are in the vehicle, the system will activate
with all doors and lift gate/trunk locked
with the ignition switch in the LOCK
position. When pushing the ignition switch
to the ACC or ON position, the system will
be released.
Vehicle security system activationGUID-D932FA41-7646-4669-AA61-035AB796F12CThe vehicle security system will give the follow-
ing alarm:
. The headlights blink and the horn sounds
intermittently.
