WARNING
. The front air bags ordinarily will
not inflate in the event of a side
impact, rear impact, rollover, or
lower severity frontal collision.
Always wear your seat belts to
help reduce the risk or severity of
injury in various kinds of acci-
dents.
. The front passenger air bag and
passenger knee air bag will not
inflate if the front passenger air
bag status light is lit. See “Front
passenger air bag and status
light” (P.1-55).
. The seat belts and the front air
bags are most effective when you
are sitting 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, leaning
forward, sitting sideways or out
of position in any way, you are at
greater risk of injury or death in a
crash. You may also receive ser-
ious or fatal injuries from the
front air bag if you are up against
it when it inflates. Always sit back
against the seatback and as far-
away as practical from the steer-
ing wheel or instrument panel.
Always properly use the seat
belts.
. The driver and front passenger
seat belt buckles are equipped
with sensors that detect if the
seat belts are fastened. The Ad-
vanced Air Bag System monitors
the severity of a collision and seat
belt usage then inflates the air
bags as needed. Failure to prop-
erly wear seat belts can increase
the risk or severity of injury in an
accident.
. The front passenger seat is
equipped with occupant classifi-
cation sensors (weight sensors)
that turn the front passenger air
bag and front passenger knee air
bag OFF under some conditions.
These sensors are only used in
this seat. Failure to be properly
seated and wearing the seat belt
can increase the risk or severity
of injury in an accident. See
“Front passenger air bag and
status light” (P.1-55).
. Keep hands on the outside of the
steering wheel. Placing them in-
side the steering wheel rim could
increase the risk that they are
injured if the front air bag in-
flates.
