The pretensioner system may activate with the
supplemental air bag system in certain types of
collisions. Working with the seat belt retractor, it
helps tighten the seat belt when the vehicle
becomes involved in certain types of collisions,
helping to restrain front seat occupants.
The pretensioner is encased with the seat belt
retractor. These seat belts are used the same
way as conventional seat belts.
When a pretensioner activates, smoke is re-
leased and a loud noise may be heard. The
smoke is not harmful, and it 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 pretensioner activation, load limiters allow
the seat belt to release webbing (if necessary) to
reduce forces against the chest.
The supplemental air bag warning light
is
used to indicate malfunctions in the pretensioner
system. (See “Supplemental air bag warning
light” (P.1-64) for more details.) If the operation
of the supplemental air bag warning light
indicates there is a malfunction, have the system
checked. It is recommended 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.

SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING
LIGHT
The supplemental air bag warning light, display-
ingin the instrument panel, monitors the
circuits for the air bag systems, pretensioners
and all related wiring.
When the ignition switch is in the ON position,
the supplemental air bag warning light illumi-
nates for about 7 seconds and then turns off.
This means the SRS air bag systems are
operational. If any of the following conditions occur, the air
bag and/or pretensioner systems need servi-
cing:
.
The supplemental air bag warning light
remains on approximately 7 seconds after
the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position.
. The supplemental air bag warning light
flashes intermittently.
. The supplemental air bag warning light does
not come on at all.
Under these conditions, the air bag and/or
pretensioner systems may not operate properly.
They must be checked and repaired. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer for
this service.WARNING
If the supplemental air bag warning
light is on, it could mean that the front
air bag, side air bag and curtain air bag
and/or pretensioner systems will not
operate in an accident. To help avoid
injury to yourself or others, have your
vehicle checked as soon as possible. It
is recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT PRO-
CEDURE
The front air bags, side air bags and curtain air
bags and pretensioners are designed to activate
on a one-time-only basis. As a reminder, unless
it is damaged, the supplemental air bag warning
light will remain illuminated after inflation has
occurred. These systems should be repaired
and/or replaced as soon as possible. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer for
this service.
When maintenance work is required on the
vehicle, the front air bags, side air bags and
curtain air bags, pretensioners and related parts
should be pointed out to the person conducting
the maintenance. 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 activated pretensioner must
also be replaced. The air bag mod-
ule and pretensioner should be
replaced. It is recommended you

Refill the fuel tank before the gauge
registers “0” (empty) .
The low fuel warning
appears on the vehicle
information display when the fuel level in the tank
is getting low. Refuel as soon as it is convenient,
preferably before the gauge reaches “0”. There will be a small reserve of fuel in the tank when
the fuel gauge needle reaches “0”.
The
indicates that the fuel-filler door is
located on the driver’s side of the vehicle.
CAUTION
. If the vehicle runs out of fuel, themalfunction indicator light (MIL)
may come on. Refuel as soon as
possible. After a few driving trips,
the
light should turn off. If the
light remains on after a few driving
trips, have the vehicle inspected. It
is recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
. For additional information, see
