WARNING
∙ Do not place any objects between theknee bolster and the driver’s or pas-
senger’s seat. Such objects may be-
come dangerous projectiles and
cause injury if a knee air bag inflates.
∙ Right af ter inflation, the knee 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 knee air bag system. This is to pre-
vent damage to or accidental inflation
of the knee air bag system.
∙ Do not make unauthorized changes to your vehicle’s electrical system or
suspension system. This could affect
proper operation of the knee air bag
system.
∙ Tampering with the knee air bag sys- tem may result in serious personal in-
jury. For example, do not change the
driver or passenger knee bolster or
install additional trim material
around the knee air bag. ∙ It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for work on and around
the knee air bag. It is also recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
for installation of electrical equip-
ment. The SRS wiring harnesses*
should not be modified or discon-
nected. Unauthorized electrical test
equipment and probing devices
should not be used on the knee air
bag system.
*The SRS wiring harness or connectors
are yellow or orange for easy identifica-
tion.
When selling your vehicle, we request that
you inform the buyer about the knee air
bag system and guide the buyer to the
appropriate sections in this manual.
Seat belt with pretensioner(s)
(front seats)

The pretensioner system may activate
with the supplemental air bag system in
certain types of collisions. Working with the
seat belt retractor, the pretensioner(s) help
tighten the seat belt when the vehicle
becomes involved in certain types of
collisions, helping to restrain front seat
occupants.
The pretensioner(s) are encased within the
seat belt retractor and to the seat belt an-
chor affixed to the floor of the vehicle.
These seat belts are used the same way as
conventional seat belts.
When pretensioner(s) activate, smoke is re-
leased and a loud noise may be heard. This
smoke is not harmful and does not indi-
cate a fire. Care should be taken not to
inhale it, as it may cause irritation and
choking. Those with a history of a breath-
ing condition should get fresh air promptly.
Af ter the pretensioner(s’) activation, load
limiters allow the seat belt to release web-
bing (if necessary) to reduce forces against
the chest.The supplemental air bag warning

WARNING
∙ Once a front air bag, side air bag, cur-tain air bag or knee air bag has in-
flated, the air bag module will not
function again and must be replaced.
Additionally, the activated preten-
sioner(s) must also be replaced. The
air bag module and pretensioner(s)
should be replaced. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service. However, the air bag
module and pretensioner(s) cannot
be repaired.
∙ The front air bag, side air bag, curtain air bag, knee air bag systems and the
pretensioner system should be in-
spected if there is any damage to the
front end or side portion of the ve-
hicle. It is recommended that you visit
a NISSAN dealer for this service.
∙ If you need to dispose of the supple- mental air bag or pretensioner sys-
tems or scrap the vehicle, it is recom-
mended that you contact a NISSAN
dealer for this service. Incorrect dis-
posal 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 verif y it is still functioning
correctly. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
The OCS should be checked even if no
air bags deploy as a result of the im-
pact. Failure to verif y proper OCS
function may result in an improper air
bag deployment resulting in injury or
death.
