Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
PRECAUTIONS ON SRS
This SRS section contains important in-
formation concerning the following sys-
tems:
. Driver and front passenger supple-
mental front-impact air bag (NISSAN
Advanced Air Bag System)
. Front seat-mounted side-impact sup-
plemental air bag
. Roof-mounted curtain side-impact
and rollover supplemental air bag
. Seat belt with pretensioner (front
seats)
Supplemental front-impact air bag sys-
tem: The NISSAN Advanced Air Bag Sys-
tem can help cushion the impact force to
the head and chest of the driver and front
passenger in certain frontal collisions.
Front seat-mounted side-impact sup-
plemental air bag system: This system
can help cushion the impact force to the
chest and pelvic area of the driver and
front passenger in certain side impact
collisions. The side air bag is designed to
inflate on the side where the vehicle is
impacted.
Roof-mounted curtain side-impact and
rollover supplemental air bag system:
This system can help cushion the impact
force to the heads of occupants in front
and rear outboard seating positions in
certain side impact or rollover collisions.
In a side-impact, the curtain air bags are
designed to inflate on the side where the
vehicle is impacted. In a rollover, the
curtain air bags on both sides are de-
signed to inflate. Under both side-impact
and rollover situations, the curtain air
bags will remain inflated for a short
period of time.
These supplemental restraint systems are
designed to supplement the crash pro-
tection provided by the driver and pas-
senger seat belts and are not a
substitute for them. Seat belts should
always be correctly worn and the occu-
pant seated a suitable distance away
from the steering wheel, instrument pa-
nel and door finishers. (See “Seat belts”
(P.1-10) for instructions and precautions
on seat belt usage.)
The supplemental air bags operate only
when the ignition switch is in the ON or
START position.
After the ignition is placed in the ON
position, the supplemental air bag
warning light illuminates. The supple-
mental air bag warning light will turn
off after about 7 seconds if the systems
are operational.
