2015 NISSAN PATHFINDER lock

If a malfunction occurs in the front passenger air
bag system, the supplemental air bag warning
light
, located in the meter and gauges area
of the instrument panel, will blink. Have the sys-
tem checked by a NISSAN dealer.
Normal operation
In order for the occupant classification system to
classify the right front passenger based on
weight, please follow the precautions and steps
outlined below:
Precautions
● Make sure there are no objects weighing
over 2.2 lbs (1 kg) hanging on the seat or
placed in the seatback pocket.
● Make sure that a child seat or other object is
not pressing against the rear of the seat-
back.
● Make sure that a rear passenger is not push-
ing or pulling on the back of the front pas-
senger’s seat.
● Make sure that the front seat or seatback is
not forced back against an object on the
seat or floor behind it.
● Make sure that there is no object placed
under the front passenger’s seat. Steps
1. Adjust the seat as outlined in the “Seats” section of the Owner’s Manual. Sit upright,
leaning against the seatback, and centered
on the seat cushion with your feet comfort-
ably extended to the floor.
2. Make sure there are no objects on the occu- pant’s lap.
3. Fasten the seat belt as outlined in the “Seat belts” section of the Owner’s Manual.
4. Remain in this position for 30 seconds al- lowing the system to classify the front pas-
senger before the vehicle is put into motion.
5. Ensure proper classification by checking the front passenger air bag status light.
NOTE:
This vehicle’s occupant classification sys-
tem locks the classification during driving
so it is important that you confirm that the
front passenger is properly classified prior
to driving. Also, the occupant classification
system may recalculate the weight of the
occupant when the vehicle comes to a stop
(i.e stop light, stop sign etc.) , so front pas-
senger seat occupants should continue to
remain seated as outlined above. Troubleshooting
If you think the front passenger air bag status light
is incorrect:
1. If the light is ON with no front passenger and no objects on the front passenger seat:
This may be due to the following conditions that
may be interfering with the weight sensors: ● An object weighing over 2.2 lbs (1 kg) hang-
ing on the seat or placed in the seatback
pocket.
● A child seat or other object pressing against
the rear of the seatback.
● A rear passenger pushing or pulling on the
back of the front passenger’s seat.
● The front seat or seatback is forced back
against an object on the seat or floor behind
it.
● An object placed under the front passen-
ger’s seat.
● An object placed between the seat cushion
and center console or between door and
cushion.
If the vehicle is moving, please come to a stop
when it is safe to do so. Check and correct any of
the above conditions. Restart the vehicle and
wait one minute.

Repair and replacement procedure
The front air bags, side air bags, curtain air bags
and pretensioners are designed to inflate on a
one-time-only basis. As a reminder, unless it is
damaged, the supplemental air bag warning light
remains illuminated after inflation has occurred.
Repair and replacement of these supplemental
air bag systems should be done only by a
NISSAN dealer.
When maintenance work is required on the ve-
hicle, the front air bags, side air bags, curtain air
bags, pretensioners and related parts should be
pointed out to the person performing the mainte-
nance. 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 acti-
vated pretensioners must also be re-
placed. The air bag module and preten-
sioner should be replaced by a NISSAN
dealer. The air bag module and preten-
sioner cannot be repaired. ●
The front air bag, side air bag, curtain
air bag systems and the pretensioner
system should be inspected by a
NISSAN dealer if there is any damage to
the front end or side portion of the
vehicle.
● If you need to dispose of a supplemen-
tal air bag or pretensioner or scrap the
vehicle, contact a NISSAN dealer. Incor-
rect disposal procedures could cause
personal injury.
