place. If the restraint is not secure,
tighten the LATCH attachment as nec-
essary, or put the restraint in another
seat and test it again. You may need to
try a different child restraint or try install- ing by using the vehicle seat belt (if ap-
plicable). Not all child restraints fit in all
types of vehicles.
5. Check to make sure that the child re- straint is properly secured prior to each

signed to withstand only those loads
imposed by correctly fitted child re-
straints. Under no circumstances are they to be used to attach adult seat
belts, or other items or equipment to
the vehicle. Doing so could damage the
child restraint anchorages. The child
restraint will not be properly installed

2. Make sure there are no objects on yourlap.
3. Fasten the seat belt as outlined in the “Seat belts” section of this manual. Front
passenger seat belt buckle status is
monitored by the occupant classifica-
tion system, and is used as an input to
determine occupancy status. So, it is
highly recommended that the front pas-
senger fasten their seat belt.
4. Remain in this position for 30 seconds allowing the system to classif y the front
passenger before the vehicle is put into
motion.
5. Ensure proper classification by checking the front passenger air bag status light.
NOTE:
This vehicle’s occupant classification sen-
sor system generally keeps the classifica-
tion locked during driving, so it is impor-
tant that you confirm that the front
passenger is properly classified prior to
driving. However, the occupant classifica-
tion sensor may recalculate the weight of
the occupant under some conditions (both
while driving and when stopped), so front
passenger seat occupants should con-
tinue to remain seated as outlined above.
Troubleshooting:
If you think the front passenger air bag
status light is incorrect:
1. If the light is ON with an adult occupyingthe front passenger seat:
• Occupant is a small adult — the air bag light is functioning as intended. The
front passenger air bag is suppressed.
However, if the occupant is not a small
adult, then this may be due to the fol-
lowing conditions that may be interfer-
ing with the weight sensors:
• Occupant is not sitting upright, leaning against the seatback, and centered on
the seat cushion with his/her feet com-
fortably extended to the floor.
• A child restraint or other object press- ing against the rear of the seatback.
• A rear passenger pushing or pulling on the back 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 or between
the seat cushion and the door.
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 ON af ter this, the person
should be advised not to ride in the front
passenger 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.
2. If the light is OFF with a small adult, child or child restraint occupying the front
passenger seat.

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 recommended that you visit a

service.
Repair and replacement
procedure
The front air bags, side air bags, curtain air
bags and pretensioner(s) are designed to
activate on a one-time-only basis. As a re-
minder, unless it is damaged, the supple-
mental air bag warning light will remain
illuminated af ter inflation has occurred.
These systems should be repaired and/or
replaced as soon as possible. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer for this service.
When maintenance work is required on the
vehicle, the front air bags, side air bags,
curtain air bags and pretensioner(s) and related parts should be pointed out to the
person performing the maintenance. The
power 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(s) must
also be replaced. The air bag module
and pretensioner(s) should be re-
placed. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer
for this service. The air bag modules
and pretensioner system cannot be
repaired.
• The front air bag, side air bag and curtain air bag systems, and preten-
sioner system should be inspected if
there is any damage to the front end
or side portion of the vehicle. It is
recommended that you visit a
NISSAN certified LEAF dealer for this
service. • If you need to dispose of a supple-
mental air bag or pretensioner sys-
tem or scrap the vehicle, it is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer for this service.
Correct supplemental air bag and
pretensioner system disposal pro-
cedures are set forth in the appro-
priate NISSAN Service Manual. Incor-
rect disposal procedures could
cause personal injury.
• If there is an impact to your vehicle from any direction, your Occupant
Classification Sensor (OCS) should
be checked. It is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN certified LEAF
dealer to verif y it is still functioning
correctly. The OCS should be
checked even if no air bags deploy
as a result of the impact. Failure to
verif y proper OCS function may re-
sult in an improper air bag deploy-
ment resulting in injury or death.
