2015 NISSAN SENTRA Owners Manual

●If you need to dispose of the supple-
mental air bag or pretensioner systems
or scrap the vehicle, contact a NISSAN
dealer. Incorrect disposal procedures
could cause personal injury.
● If there is an impact to your vehicle from
any direction, your Occupant Classifica-
tion Sensor (OCS) should be checked
by a NISSAN dealer to verify it is still
functioning correctly. The OCS should
be checked even if no air bags deploy as
a result of the impact. Failure to verify
proper OCS function may result in an
improper air bag deployment resulting
in injury or death.
NOTE:
In the event of a crash involving an air bag
deployment (side, front or both) , the vehi-
cle’s hazard lamps (turn indicators) will ac-
tivate.
