SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING
LIGHT
The supplemental air bag warning light,
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 warn-
ing 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 seconds.
. 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, 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 a NISSAN dealer
for this service.
REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT PRO-
CEDURE
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 sup-
plemental air bag warning light will re-
main illuminated after inflation has
occurred. These systems should be re-
paired and/or replaced as soon as possi-
ble. 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, 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. Ad-
ditionally, the activated preten-
sioner must also be replaced. The
air bag module and pretensioner
system should be replaced. It is recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service. The air bag
module and pretensioner system
cannot be repaired.
. The front air bag, side air bag and
curtain air bag systems and the
pretensioner system should be
inspected if there is any damage
to the front end or side portion of
the vehicle. It is recommended
you visit a NISSAN dealer for this
service.
. If you need to dispose of the
supplemental air bag or preten-
sioner systems or scrap the vehi-
cle, it is recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer. Correct supple-
mental air bag and seat belt
pretensioner system disposal
procedures are set forth in the
appropriate NISSAN Service Man-
ual. Incorrect disposal procedures
