SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHT AND
CHIME
The light and chime remind you to fasten
the driver, front passenger and rear pas-
senger seat belts. A visual and audible alert
will operate in the following conditions:
• If the driver seat belt is not fastened.
• The front passenger’s seat belt is not fas-tened and the seat is occupied by a pas-
senger for 7 seconds af ter the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position. • The front passenger’s seat belt is not fas-
tened and objects or external force on
the passenger seat change the seat belt
reminder classification to “occupied”.
• Any rear passenger seat belt is operated from fastened to unfastened.
For additional information, see:
• “Seat belt warning light and chime” (P. 2-18).
• “Rear seat belt warning” (P. 2-35).
The below situations could result in the
seat belt warning function operating, even
with no occupant present in the front pas-
senger seat:
• Heavy objects placed on the seat.
• Someone pushing or pulling on the front passenger seat.
• An object placed under the front passen- ger seat.
• An object placed between the seat cush- ion and center console or between the
seat cushion and the door.
• An object hanging on the seat or placed in the seatback pocket.
• A child restraint or other object pressing against the rear of the seatback. The rear seat belt reminder may operate if
the rear seat belts are used without
occupants.
PREGNANT WOMEN
NISSAN recommends that pregnant
women use seat belts. The seat belt should
be worn snug and always position the lap
belt as low as possible around the hips, not
the waist. Place the shoulder belt over your
shoulder and across your chest. Never run
the lap/shoulder belt over your abdominal
area. Contact your doctor for specific
recommendations.
INJURED PERSONS
NISSAN recommends that injured persons
use seat belts. Check with your doctor for
specific recommendations.

WARNING
To ensure proper operation of the pas-
senger’s NISSAN Advanced Air Bag Sys-
tem, please observe the following
items.
• Do not allow a passenger in the rear
bench seats to push or pull on the
seatback pocket.
• Do not place heavy loads heavier
than 9.1 lbs. (4 kg) on the seatback,
head restraint or in the seatback
pocket.
• Make sure that there is nothing
pressing against the rear of the seat-
back, such as a child restraint in-
stalled in the rear seat or an object
stored on the floor.
• Make sure that there is no object
placed under the front passenger
seat.
• Make sure that there is no object
placed between the seat cushion and
center console, or between the seat
cushion and the door. •
If a forward-facing child restraint is
installed in the front passenger seat,
do not position the front passenger
seat so the child restraint contacts
the instrument panel. If the child re-
straint does contact the instrument
panel, the system may determine the
seat as occupied and the front pas-
senger air bag and front passenger
supplemental knee air bag may de-
ploy in a collision. Also the front pas-
senger air bag status light may not
illuminate. For additional informa-
tion, see “Child restraints” (P. 1-26).
• Confirm the operating condition with
the front passenger air bag status
light.
• If you notice that the front passenger
air bag status light is not operating
as described in this section, get the
occupant classification system
checked. It is recommended that you
take your vehicle to a NISSAN dealer
for this service.
• Until you have confirmed with a
dealer that your passenger seat oc-
cupant classification system is work-
ing properly, position the occupants
in the rear seating positions. •
Do not position the front passenger
seat so it contacts the rear bench
seats. If the front seat does contact
the rear bench seats, the air bag sys-
tem may determine a sensor mal-
function has occurred and the front
passenger air bag status light may
illuminate and the supplemental air
bag warning light may flash.
This vehicle is equipped with the NISSAN
Advanced Air Bag System for the driver and
front passenger seats. All of the informa-
tion, cautions and warnings in this
manual still apply and must be followed.
The driver supplemental front-impact air
bag is located in the center of the steering
wheel. The front passenger supplemental
front-impact air bag is mounted in the
dashboard above the glove box. The front
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 frontal impact. They may not in-
flate in certain frontal collisions. Vehicle
damage (or lack of it) is not always an indi-
cation of proper front air bag system
operation.
1-60Safety-Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
NOTE:
This vehicle’s occupant classification
sensor system locks the classification
during driving so it is important that you
confirm that the front passenger is prop-
erly classified prior to driving. Also, the
occupant classification sensor system
may recalculate the weight of the occu-
pant when the vehicle comes to a stop
(i.e. stop light, stop sign, etc.), 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 no front passengerand no objects on the front passenger
seat:
This may be due to the following condi-
tions that may be interfering with the
weight sensors:
• An object weighing over 9.1 lbs. (4 kg) hanging on the seat or placed in the seat-
back pocket.
• A child restraint or other object pressing 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 be-
hind it.
• An object placed under the front passen- ger seat.
• An object placed between the seat cush- ion 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 during
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 vehicle
should be checked as soon as possible. It is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
2. If the light is ON with an adult occupying the 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 following
conditions that may be interfering 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 pressing 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 be-
hind it.
• An object placed under the front passen- ger seat.
• An object placed between the seat cush- ion 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.
