• Tampering with the side air bag system
may result in serious personal injury.
For example, do not change the front
seats by placing material near the
seatbacks or by installing additional
trim material, such as seat covers,
around the side air bag.
• Work around and on the side air bag
and curtain air bag systems should be
done by a NISSAN certified LEAF
dealer. Installation of electrical equip-
ment should also be done by a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer. The Supplemen-
tal Restraint System (SRS) wiring har-
nesses* should not be modified or dis-
connected. Unauthorized electrical
test equipment and probing devices
should not be used on the side air bag
and curtain supplemental air bag sys-
tems.
*The SRS wiring harness connectors are
yellow and orange for easy identification.
When selling your vehicle, we request that you
inform the buyer about the side air bag and
curtain air bag systems and guide the buyer to
the appropriate sections in this Owner’s Manual.
SEAT BELTS WITH
PRETENSIONERS (FRONT SEATS)
WARNING
• The pretensioners cannot be reused
after activation. They must be replaced
together with the retractor and buckle
as a unit.
• If the vehicle becomes involved in a
collision but a pretensioner is not ac-
tivated, be sure to have the preten-
sioner system checked and, if neces-
sary, replaced by a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer.
• No unauthorized changes should be
made to any components or wiring of
the pretensioner system. This is to pre-
vent damage to or accidental activa-
tion of the pretensioners. Tampering
with the pretensioner system may re-
sult in serious personal injury.
• Work around and on the pretensioner
system should be done by a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer. Installation of
electrical equipment should also be
done by a NISSAN certified LEAF
dealer. Unauthorized electrical test
equipment and probing devices
should not be used on the preten-
sioner system.
• If you need to dispose of a preten-
sioner or scrap the vehicle, contact a
NISSAN certified LEAF dealer. Correct
pretensioner disposal procedures are
set forth in the appropriate NISSAN
Service Manual. Incorrect disposal
procedures could cause personal in-
jury.
The pretensioner system may activate with the
supplemental air bag system in certain types of
collisions. Working with the seat belt retractor, it
helps tighten the seat belt when the vehicle be-
comes involved in certain types of collisions,
helping to restrain front seat occupants.
The pretensioner is encased with the seat belt
retractor for both front seating positions. The
driver’s seat belt also has a pretensioner at the
outer floor anchor. These seat belts are used the
same way as conventional seat belts.
