occupant is too close to, or is against, the
front air bag module during inflation. The
front air bags deflate quickly after a collision.
The front air bags operate 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 a few seconds af-
ter the engine starts if the system is opera-
tional.
Front passenger air bag and status
light
WARNING
The front passenger air bag is designed to
automatically turn OFF under some condi-
tions. Read this section carefully to learn
how it operates. Proper use of the seat,
seat belt and child restraints is necessary
for most effective protection. Failure to
follow all instructions in this manual con-
cerning the use of seats, seat belts and
child restraints can increase the risk or se-
verity of injury in an accident.

Status light
The front passenger seat is equipped with an
occupant classification sensor (pressure sen-
sor) that turns the front passenger air bag on
or off depending on the weight applied to the
front passenger seat. The indicator lights in-
form you whether the front passenger front
air bag is disabled or enabled.
Place the ignition in the ON position. The
system carries out a self-diagnosis.The and SENGER AIRBAG ON> indicator lights will
light up simultaneously for approximately six
seconds.
The indicator lights display the status of the
front passenger front air bag:
• lights up: the
front passenger front air bag is enabled. If,
in the event of an accident, all deployment
criteria are met, the front passenger front
air bag is deployed.
• lights up:
the front passenger front air bag is dis-
abled. It will then not be deployed in the
event of an accident.
If the status of the front passenger front air
bag changes while the vehicle is in motion, an
air bag display message appears in the ve-
hicle information display. When the front
passenger seat is occupied, always pay at-
tention to the
and indicator
lights. Be aware of the status of the front
passenger front air bag both before and dur-
ing the journey.
If neither the
or the indicator
lights light up, or if either indicator light only
lights up intermittently during the journey, the
front passenger seat may not be used for a

Front seat-mounted side-impact
supplemental air bag and
roof-mounted curtain side-impact
and rollover supplemental air bag
systems
The side air bags are located in the outside of
the seatback of the front seats. The curtain
air bags are located in the side roof rails.All of
the information, cautions and warnings in
this manual apply and must be followed.The
side air bags and curtain air bags are de-
signed to inflate in higher severity side colli-
sions, although they may inflate if the forces
in another type of collision are similar to
those of a higher severity impact. They are
designed to inflate on the side where the
vehicle is impacted. They may not inflate in
certain side collisions. Curtain air bags are
also designed to inflate in certain types ofrollover collisions or near rollovers. As a re-
sult, certain vehicle movements (for example,
during severe off-roading) may cause the
curtain air bags to inflate.
Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an
indication of proper side air bag and curtain
air bag operation.
When the side air bags and curtain air bags
inflate, a fairly loud noise may be heard, fol-
lowed 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.
Side air bags, along with the use of seat belts,
help to cushion the impact force on the chest
of the front occupants. Curtain air bags help
to cushion the impact force to the head of
occupants in the front and rear outboard
seating positions in all rows. They can help
save lives and reduce serious injuries. How-
ever, an inflating side air bag or curtain air
bag may cause abrasions or other injuries.
Side air bags and curtain air bags do not
provide restraint to the lower body.
The seat belts should be correctly worn and
the driver and front passenger seated upright
as far as practical away from the side air bag.
Rear seat passengers should be seated as faraway as practical from the door finishers and
side roof rails. The side air bags and curtain
air bags inflate quickly in order to help protect
the occupants. Because of this, the force of
the side air bags and curtain air bags inflating
can increase the risk of injury if the occupant
is too close to, or is against, these air bag
modules during inflation. The side air bag will
deflate quickly after the collision is over.
The curtain air bag will remain inflated for a
short time.
The side air bags and curtain air bags oper-
ate 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 a few seconds after the engine starts if
the system is operational.
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.
SSS0978Z
1-50Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

•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 sys-
tems. 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, suspen-
sion system or side panel. This could af-
fect proper operation of the curtain 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 seatbacks
or by installing additional trim material,
such as seat covers, around the side air
bag.
•It is recommended that you visit an
INFINITI retailer for work on and around
the front air bag. It is also recommended
that you visit an INFINITI retailer for
installation of electrical equipment. The
SRS wiring harnesses* should not be
modified or disconnected. Unauthorizedelectrical test equipment and probing
devices should not be used on the side air
bag or curtain air bag systems.
Driver and passenger supplemental
knee air bags
The driver's knee air bag deploys under the
steering column, while the passenger's knee
air bag deploys under the glove box. All of the
information, cautions and warnings in this
manual apply and must be followed. The driv-
er's and passenger's knee air bags are trig-
gered together with the front air bag. The
knee air bags are designed to inflate in higher
severity frontal collisions, although they may
inflate if the forces in another type of collision
are similar to those of a higher severity fron-
tal impact. They may not inflate in certain
collisions.
Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an
indication of proper knee air bag operation.
When a 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 promptlyThe knee air bags help to cushion the impact
force on the knees of the driver and front
passenger. They can help reduce serious inju-
ries. However, an inflating knee air bag may
cause abrasions or other injuries. 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 bags operate only when the ig-
nition 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 a few seconds af-
ter the engine starts if the system is opera-
tional.
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.

irritation and choking. Those with a history of
a breathing condition should get fresh air
promptly. After the pretensioner(s)'s activa-
tion, load limiters allow the seat belt to re-
lease webbing (if necessary) 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 section. If the operation
of the supplemental air bag warning light
indicates there is a malfunction, have the sys-
tem checked. It is recommended that you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service. When
selling your vehicle, we request that you in-
form the buyer about the pretensioner sys-
tem and guide the buyer to the appropriate
sections in this Owner's Manual.
