• If you need to dispose of the pretension-
er(s) or scrap the vehicle, it is recom-
mended that you visit an INFINITI re-
tailer for this service. Incorrect disposal
procedures could cause personal injury.
The pretensioner system may activate with
the supplemental air bag system in certain
types of collisions. Working with the seat belt
retractor, the pretensioner(s) help tighten the
seat belt when the vehicle becomes involved
in certain types of collisions, helping to re-
strain front seat and rear outboard occu-
pants. The pretensioner(s) are encased within
the seat belt retractor and to the seat belt
anchor affixed to the floor of the vehicle.
These seat belts are used the same way as
conventional seat belts. When pretension-
er(s) activate, smoke is released and a loud
noise may be heard. This smoke is not harm-
ful and does not indicate a fire. Care should
be taken not to inhale it, as it may cause
irritation and choking. Those with a history of
a breathing condition should get fresh air
promptly. After the pretensioner(s)'s activa-
tion, load limiters allow the seat belt to re-
lease webbing (if necessary) to reduce forces
against the chest. The supplemental air bag
warning light is used to indicate malfunctions
in the pretensioner system. For additional in-
formation, refer to Supplemental air bag
warning light in this section. If the operation
of the supplemental air bag warning light
indicates there is a malfunction, have the sys-
tem checked. It is recommended that you visit
an INFINITI retailer for this service. When
selling your vehicle, we request that you in-
form the buyer about the pretensioner sys-
tem and guide the buyer to the appropriate
sections in this Owner's Manual.
