1-64 Safety — seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system
front passenger air bag status light is
illuminated (indicating that the air bag is
OFF), it could be that the person is a small
adult, or is not sitting on the seat
properly.
If a child restraint must be used in the
front seat, the front passenger air bag
status light may or may not be illumi-
nated, depending on the size of the child
and the type of child restraint being used.
If the front passenger air bag status light
is not illuminated (indicating that the air
bag might inflate in a crash), it could be
that the child restraint or seat belt is not
being used properly. Make sure that the
child restraint is installed properly, the
seat belt is used properly and the occu-
pant is positioned properly. If the front
passenger air bag status light is still not
illuminated, reposition the occupant or
child restraint in a rear seat.
If the front passenger air bag status light
will not illuminate even though you be-
lieve that the child restraint, the seat belts
and the occupant are properly positioned,
the system may be sensing an unoccu-
pied seat (in which case the air bag is
OFF). Your NISSAN dealer can check that
the system is OFF by using a special tool.
However, until you have confirmed with
your dealer that your air bag is working
properly, reposition the occupant or child
restraint in a rear seat.
The NISSAN Advanced Air Bag System
and front passenger air bag status light
will take a few seconds to register a
change in the front passenger seat sta-
tus. However, if the seat becomes unoc-
cupied, the front passenger air bag status
light will remain off.
If a malfunction occurs in the front
passenger air bag system, the supple-
mental air bag warning light
, located
in the meter and gauges area will blink.
Have the system checked. It is recom-
mended you visit a NISSAN dealer for this
service.
Normal operation:
In order for the occupant classification
sensor system to classify the front pas-
senger based on weight, please follow the
precautions and steps outlined below:
Precautions:
. Make sure that there are no objects
weighing over 9.1 lbs (4 kg) hanging on
the seat or placed in the seatback
pocket.
. Make sure that a child restraint or
other object is not pressing against
the rear of the seatback.
. Make sure that a rear passenger is not
pushing or pulling on the back of the
front passenger seat.
. Make sure that the front passenger
seat or seatback is not forced back
against an object on the seat or floor
behind it.
. Make sure that there is no object
placed under the front passenger
seat.
Steps:
1. Adjust the seat as outlined. (See
“Seats” (P.1-3).) Sit upright, leaning
against the seatback, and centered
on the seat cushion with your feet
comfortably extended to the floor.
2. Make sure there are no objects on
your lap.
3. Fasten the seat belt as outlined. (See
“Seat belts” (P.1-20).)
4. Remain in this position for 30 seconds
allowing the system to classify the
front passenger before the vehicle is
put into motion.
5. Ensure proper classification by check-
ing the front passenger air bag status
light.
NOTE:
This vehicle’s occupant classification
sensor system locks the classification
during driving so it is important that
you confirm that the front passenger is
properly classified prior to driving. Also,
