2019 NISSAN LEAF child restraint

This may be due to the following condi-
tions that may be interfering with the
weight sensors:
• Small adult or child is not sitting upright, leaning against the seatback, and cen-
tered on the seat cushion with his/her
feet comfortably extended to the floor.
• The child restraint is not properly in- stalled, as outlined in the “Child re-
straints” section of this manual.
• An object weighting over 9.1 lbs. (4 kg) hanging on the seat or placed in the
seatback pocket.
• A child restraint or other object press- ing against the rear or the seatback.
• A rear passenger pushing or pulling on the back of the front passenger seat.
pushing or pulling on the seatback of
the front passenger seat.
• Forcing the front seat or seatback against an object on the seat or floor
behind it.
• An object placed under the front pas- senger seat.
• An object placed between the seat cushion and center console. If the vehicle is moving, please come to a
stop when it is safe to do so. Check and
correct any of the above conditions. Re-
start the vehicle and wait 1 minute.
NOTE:
A system check will be performed dur-
ing which the front passenger air bag
status light will remain lit for about
7 seconds initially.
If the light is still OFF af ter this, the small
adult, child or child restraint should be
repositioned in the rear seat and the
vehicle should be checked as soon as
possible. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer for
this service.
3. If the light is OFF with no front passenger and no objects on the front passenger
seat the vehicle should be checked as
soon as possible. It is recommended

Other supplemental front-impact air
bag precautions:
WARNING
• Do not place any objects on the steering wheel pad or on the instru-
ment panel. Also, do not place any
objects between any occupant and
the steering wheel or instrument
panel. Such objects may become
dangerous projectiles and cause in-
jury if the front air bags inflate.
• Do not place objects with sharp edges on the seat. Also, do not place
heavy objects on the seat that will
leave permanent impressions in the
seat. Such objects can damage the
seat or occupant classification sen-
sor (weight sensor). This can affect
the operation of the air bag system
and result in serious personal injury.
• Do not use water or acidic cleaners (hot steam cleaners) on the seat.
This can damage the seat or occu-
pant classification sensor. This can
also affect the operation of the air
bag system and result in serious
personal injury.

CAUTION
• Do not use the bottle holder for any other objects that could be thrown

jure people during sudden braking
or an accident.

TONNEAU COVER (IF SO
EQUIPPED)
WARNING
• Never put anything on the tonneau cover, no matter how small. Any ob-
ject on it could cause an injury in an
accident or sudden stop.
• Do not leave the tonneau cover in the vehicle with it disengaged from
the holder.
• Properly secure all cargo with ropes or straps to help prevent it from slid-
ing or shif ting. Do not place cargo
higher than the seatbacks. In a sud-
den stop or collision, unsecured
cargo could cause personal injury. • Properly secure cargo and do not al-
low it to contact the top tether strap
when it is attached to the top tether
anchor. Cargo that is not properly
secured or cargo that contacts the
top tether strap may damage the
top tether strap during a collision. If
the cargo cover contacts the top
tether strap when it is attached to
the top tether anchor, remove the
cargo cover from the vehicle or se-
cure it on the cargo floor below its
attachment location. If the cargo
cover is not removed, it may damage
the top tether strap during a colli-
sion. Your child could be seriously in-
jured or killed in a collision if the
child restraint top tether strap is
damaged.
The tonneau cover keeps the luggage
compartment contents hidden from the
outside. To remove the tonneau cover:
1. Remove the straps from the rear hatch.
2. Pull up the tonneau cover.
3. Remove the tonneau cover holders
from the rear pillar.
