2018 INFINITI QX80 Owners Manual

1-68Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
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.1-69) 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 an INFINITI retailer
for this service.
When selling your vehicle, we request that
you inform the buyer about the pretensioner
system and guide the buyer to the appro-
priate sections in this Owner’s Manual.

displayingin 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 illuminates for about 7 seconds and
then turns off. This means the system is
operational.
If any of the following conditions occur, the
air bag and/or pretensioner systems need
servicing: .
The supplemental air bag warning light
remains on after approximately 7 sec-
onds.
. 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 prop-
erly. They must be checked and repaired. It is
recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service.
WARNING
If the supplemental air bag warning light
is on, it could mean that the front air
bag, side air bag, 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 recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for
this service.
REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT
PROCEDURE
The front air bags, side air bags, curtain air
bags and pretensioners are designed to
activate on a one-time-only basis. As a
reminder, unless it is damaged, the supple-
mental 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 recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service.
When maintenance work is required on the
vehicle, the front air bags, side air bags,
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

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 module and
pretensioner should be replaced. It is

recommended you visit an INFINITI
retailer for this service. However, the
air bag module and pretensioner
system cannot be repaired.
. The front air bag, side air bag, curtain
air bag and the pretensioner should
be inspected if there is any damage to
the front end or side portion of the
vehicle. It is recommended you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service.
. If you need to dispose of a supple-
mental air bag or pretensioner or
scrap the vehicle, it is recommended
you visit an INFINITI retailer. Correct
supplemental air bag and preten-
sioner system disposal procedures
are set forth in the appropriate
INFINITI Service Manual. Incorrect
disposal procedures could cause per-
sonal injury.
. If there is an impact to your vehicle
from any direction, your Occupant
Classification Sensor (OCS) should be
checked to verify it is still functioning
correctly. It is recommended that you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service. 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 im-
proper air bag deployment resulting in injury or death.
