2016 NISSAN MURANO HYBRID warning

WARNING
●Do not place any objects near the seat-
back of the front seats. Also, do not
place any objects (an umbrella, bag,
etc.) between the front door finisher
and the front seat. Such objects may
become dangerous projectiles and
cause injury if a side air bag inflates.
● Right after inflation, several side air bag
and curtain air bag system components
will be hot. Do not touch them; you may
severely burn yourself.
● No unauthorized changes should be
made to any components or wiring of
the side air bag and curtain air bag
systems. This is to prevent damage to or
accidental inflation of the side air bag
and curtain air bag systems.
● Do not make unauthorized changes to
your vehicle’s electrical system, sus-
pension system or side panel. This
could affect proper operation of the cur-
tain air bag systems. ●
Tampering with the side air bag system
may result in serious personal injury.
For example, do not change the front
seats by placing material near the seat-
backs or by installing additional trim
material, such as seat covers, around
the side air bag.
● It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for work on and around
the front air bag. It is also recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
for installation of electrical equipment.
The SRS wiring harnesses* should not
be modified or disconnected. Unauthor-
ized electrical test equipment and prob-
ing devices should not be used on the
side air bag or curtain air bag systems.
*The SRS wiring harness or connectors are
yellow or orange for easy identification.
When selling your vehicle, we request that you
inform the buyer about the side air bags and
curtain air bag system and guide the buyer to the
appropriate sections in this Owner’s Manual.
Driver supplemental knee air bag
The knee air bag is located in the knee bolster, on
the driver’s side. The knee air bag is located on
the driver’s side of the vehicle only. All of the
information, cautions and warnings in this
manual apply and must be followed. The
knee air bag is designed to inflate in higher se-
verity frontal collisions, although it may inflate if
the forces in another type of collision are similar
to those of a higher severity frontal impact. It may
not inflate in certain collisions.
Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an
indication of proper knee air bag operation.
LRS2599
Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-63

When the knee air bag inflates, a fairly loud noise
may be heard, followed by release of smoke. This
smoke is not harmful and does not indicate a fire.
Care should be taken not to inhale it, as it may
cause irritation and choking. Those with a history
of a breathing condition should get fresh air
promptly.
The knee air bag helps to cushion the impact
force on the knees of the driver. It can help
reduce serious injuries. However, an inflating
knee air bag may cause abrasions or other inju-
ries. The knee air bag provides restraint to the
lower body.
The knee air bag inflates quickly in order to help
protect the occupants. Because of this, the force
of the knee air bag inflating can increase the risk
of injury if the occupant is too close to, or is
against, this air bag module during inflation. The
knee air bag will deflate quickly after the collision
is over OR the knee air bag will remain inflated for
a short time.
The knee air bag operates only when the
ignition switch is placed in the ON position.
After placing the ignition switch in the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warning
light illuminates. The supplemental air bag
warning light will turn off after about 7 sec-
onds if the system is operational.WARNING
●Do not place any objects between the
knee bolster and the driver’s seat. Such
objects may become dangerous projec-
tiles and cause injury if a knee air bag
inflates.
● Right after inflation, the knee air bag
system components will be hot. Do not
touch them; you may severely burn
yourself.
● No unauthorized changes should be
made to any components or wiring of
the knee air bag system. This is to pre-
vent damage to or accidental inflation
of the knee air bag system.
● Do not make unauthorized changes to
your vehicle’s electrical system or sus-
pension system. This could affect
proper operation of the knee air bag
system.
● Tampering with the knee air bag system
may result in serious personal injury.
For example, do not change the driver
knee bolster or install additional trim
material around the knee air bag. ●
It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for work on and around
the front air bag. It is also recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
for installation of electrical equipment.
The SRS wiring harnesses* should not
be modified or disconnected. Unauthor-
ized electrical test equipment and prob-
ing devices should not be used on the
knee air bag system.
*The SRS wiring harness or connectors are
yellow or orange for easy identification.
When selling your vehicle, we request that you
inform the buyer about the knee air bag system
and guide the buyer to the appropriate sections
in this manual.
Seat belt with pretensioner(s) (front
seats)
WARNING
● The pretensioner(s) cannot be reused
after activation. They must be replaced
together with the retractor and buckle
as a unit.
1-64Safety—Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

●If the vehicle becomes involved in a
collision but pretensioner(s) are not ac-
tivated, be sure to have the preten-
sioner system checked and, if neces-
sary, replaced. It is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer for this
service.
● No unauthorized changes should be
made to any components or wiring of
the pretensioner system. This is to pre-
vent damage to or accidental activation
of the pretensioner(s) . Tampering with
the pretensioner system may result in
serious personal injury.
● It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for work on and around
the pretensioner system. It is also rec-
ommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for installation of electrical
equipment. Unauthorized electrical test
equipment and probing devices should
not be used on the pretensioner system.
● If you need to dispose of the preten-
sioner(s) or scrap the vehicle, it is rec-
ommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service. Incorrect dis-
posal procedures could cause personal
injury. The pretensioner system may activate with the
supplemental air bag system in certain types of
collisions. Working with the seat belt retractor,
the pretensioner(s) help tighten the seat belt
when the vehicle becomes involved in certain
types of collisions, helping to restrain front seat
occupants.
The pretensioner(s) are encased within the seat
belt retractor and to the seat belt anchor affixed
to the floor of the vehicle. These seat belts are
used the same way as conventional seat belts.
When pretensioner(s) activate, smoke is re-
leased and a loud noise may be heard. This
smoke is not harmful and does not indicate a fire.
Care should be taken not to inhale it, as it may
cause irritation and choking. Those with a history
of a breathing condition should get fresh air
promptly.
After the pretensioner(s’) activation, load limiters
allow the seat belt to release webbing (if neces-
sary) to reduce forces against the chest.
The supplemental air bag warning light
is
used to indicate malfunctions in the pretensioner
system. For additional information, refer to
Supplemental air bag warning light in this sec-
tion. If the operation of the supplemental air bag
warning light indicates there is a malfunction,
have the system checked. It is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer for this service. When selling your vehicle, we request that you
inform the buyer about the pretensioner system
and guide the buyer to the appropriate sections
in this Owner’s Manual.
