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 pre-
tensioner 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 NISSAN certified LEAF dealer
for this 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 reminder, unless it is
damaged, the supplemental air bag warning light
will remain illuminated after inflation has oc-
curred. Repair and replacement of these systems
should be done only by a NISSAN certified LEAF
dealer.
When maintenance work is required on the ve-
hicle, 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 al-
ways 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 ac-
tivated pretensioner(s) must also be
replaced. The air bag module and pre-
tensioner(s) should be replaced. 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 recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN certi-
fied LEAF dealer for this service.
• If you need to dispose of a supplemen-
tal air bag or pretensioner system or
scrap the vehicle, it is recommended
that you visit a NISSAN certified LEAF
dealer for this service. Correct supple-
mental air bag and pretensioner sys-
tem disposal procedures are set forth
in the appropriate NISSAN Service
Manual. Incorrect 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
verify it is still functioning correctly.
The OCS should be checked even if no
air bags deploy as a result of the im-
pact. Failure to verify proper OCS func-
tion may result in an improper air bag
deployment resulting in injury or
death.
