Roof-mounted curtain side-impact supple-
mental air bag system (if so equipped for
Coupe models): This system can help cushion
the impact force to the head of occupants in
certain side impact collisions. The curtain air
bags are designed to inflate on the side where
the vehicle is impacted.
The supplemental restraint system is designed
to supplement the crash protection provided
by the driver and passenger seat belts and is
not a substitute for them. Seat belts should
always be correctly worn and the occupant
seated a suitable distance away from the steer-
ing wheel, instrument panel, door finishers and
side roof rails. (See “Seat belts” earlier in this
section 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 turning the ignition key to the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warning
light illuminates. The supplemental air bag
warning light will turn off after about 7
seconds if the systems are operational.
WARNING
쐌 The front air bags ordinarily will not
inflate in the event of a side impact,
rear impact, rollover, or lower sever-
ity frontal collision. Always wear your
seat belts to help reduce the risk or
severity of injury in various kinds of
accidents.
쐌 The front passenger air bag will not
inflate if the passenger air bag status
light is lit or if the front passenger
seat is unoccupied. See “Front pas-
senger air bag and status light” later
in this section.
쐌 The seat belts and the front air bags
are most effective when you are sit-
ting well back and upright in the seat
with both feet on the floor. The front
air bags inflate with great force. Even
with the NISSAN Advanced Air Bag
System, if you are unrestrained, lean-
ing forward, sitting sideways or out
