WARNING:
. The supplemental side-impactairbags and
supplemental curtainside-impact airbags
ordinarily willnotinflate inthe event ofa
front impact, rearimpact, rollover, orlower
severity sidecollision. Alwaysweartheseat
belts tohelp reduce therisk orseverity of
injury inaccidents.
. The seat belts andthesupplemental side-
impact airbags andsupplemental curtain
side-impact airbags aremost effective when
you aresitting wellback andupright inthe
seat. Thesupplemental side-impactairbags
and supplemental curtainside-impact air
bags inflate withgreat force. Ifyou and your
passengers areunrestrained, leaningfor-
ward, sitting sideways, orout ofposition in
any way, youand your passengers areat
greater riskofinjury ordeath inan accident.
. Donot allow anyone toplace theirhands,
legs, orface near thesupplemental side-
impact airbags andsupplemental curtain
side-impact airbags onthe sides ofthe
seatback ofthe front seats ornear theside
roof rails. Donot allow anyone sittinginthe
front seats orrear outboard seatstoextend
their hands outofthe windows orlean
against thedoors. Someexamples ofdan-
gerous ridingpositions areshown inthe
illustrations.
. When sitting inthe rear seats, donot hold
onto theseatback ofthe front seats. Ifthe
supplemental side-impactairbags andsup-
plemental curtainside-impact airbags in-
flate, youmay beseriously injured.Be
especially carefulwithchildren, whoshould always
beproperly restrained.
. Donot use seat covers onthe front seat-
backs. Theymayinterfere withthesupple-
mental side-impact airbag inflations.

WARNING:
. Do not place anyobjects onthe steering
wheel pad,onthe instrument panel,and
near thefront doorfinishers andthefront
seats. Donot place anyobjects between any
occupants andthesteering wheelpad,on
the instrument panel,andnear thefront
door finishers andthefront seats. Such
objects maybecome dangerous projectiles
and cause injuryifasupplemental airbag
inflates.
. Immediately afterinflation, severalsupple-
mental airbag system components willbe
hot. Donot touch them: youmay severely
burn yourself.
. Nounauthorized changesshouldbemade
to any components orwiring ofthe supple-
mental airbag systems. Thisisto prevent
accidental inflationofthe supplemental air
bags ordamage tothe supplemental airbag
systems.
. Donot make unauthorized changestoyour
vehicle's electrical system,suspension sys-
tem, front endstructure, andside panels.
This could affect proper operation ofthe
supplemental airbag systems.
. Tampering withthesupplemental airbag
systems mayresult inserious personal
injury. Tampering includeschanges tothe
steering wheelandtheinstrument panelby
placing materials overthesteering wheel
pad and above, around oron the instrument
panel orby installing additional trimmateri-
als around thesupplemental airbag sys-
tems. .
Work around andonthe supplemental air
bag systems shouldbedone byaNISSAN
dealer. TheSRS wiring should notbe
modified ordisconnected. Unauthorized
electrical testequipment andprobing de-
vices should notbeused onthe supple-
mental airbag systems.
. The SRS wiring harness connectors are
yellow and/or orange foreasy identification.
When theairbags inflate, afairly loudnoise maybe
heard, followed bythe release ofsmoke. Thissmoke is
not harmful anddoes notindicate afire. Care should
be taken nottoinhale it,as itmay cause irritation and
choking. Thosewithahistory ofabreathing condition
should getfresh airpromptly .

GUID-25A1 2632-42C1- 404E-B198-BDCF201D1 532
The ABS includes electronic sensors,electricpumps,
hydraulic solenoids andacomputer. Thecomputer has
a built-in diagnostic featurethattests thesystem each
time youstart theengine andmove thevehicle atalow
speed inforward orreverse. Whentheself-test
occurs, youmay hear aªclunkº noiseand/or feela
pulsation inthe brake pedal. Thisisnormal anddoes
not indicate amalfunction. Ifthe computer sensesa
malfunction, itswitches theABS offand illuminates the
ABS warning lightonthe instrument panel.Thebrake
system thenoperates normally,but without anti-lock
assistance.
If the ABS warning lightilluminates duringtheself-test
or while driving, havethevehicle checked bya
NISSAN dealer.
Normal operation
GUID-731 7FE84-7D F1-491B-AE 03-A1D3516 5D3DC
The ABS operates atspeeds above5to 10 km/h (3to
6 MPH) .The speed variesaccording toroad condi-
tions.
When theABS senses thatoneormore wheels are
close tolocking up,the actuator rapidlyapplies and
releases hydraulic pressure. Thisaction issimilar to
pumping thebrakes veryquickly .You may feela
pulsation inthe brake pedalandhear anoise from
under thehood orfeel avibration fromtheactuator
when itis operating. Thisisnormal andindicates that
the ABS isoperating properly.However, thepulsation
may indicate thatroad conditions arehazardous and
extra careisrequired whiledriving.
