Supplemental Supplemental side–impact curtain air bag system (where fitted)
The supplemental side–impact curtain air bag is located in the roof side trims.
The supplemental side–impact curtain air bag system is designed to inflate in higher severity side collisions, although it may inflate if the forces in another type of collision are similar to those of a higher severity side impact. It may not inflate in certain side collisions. Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an indication of proper supplemental curtain side–impact air bag system operation.
The seat belts should be correctly worn and the rear seat passengers should be seated as far away as practical from the door finishers and side roof rails. The curtain air bags inflate quickly in order to help protect the front and rear occupants. Because of this, the force of the curtain air bag inflating can increase the risk of injury if the occupant is too close to, or is against, these air bag modules during inflation. The curtain air bag will deflate quickly after the collision is over.
Directly after inflation, several air bag system components will be hot. Do not touch them; you may severely burn yourself.
No unauthorised changes should be made to any components or wiring of the air bag system. This is to prevent accidental inflation of the air bag or damage to the air bag system.
Tampering with the air bag system may result in serious personal injury. Tampering includes making changes to the steering wheel and the instrument panel assembly by placing material over the steering pad and above the dashboard, or by installing additional trim material around the air bag system.
Do not attach any objects to the steering wheel pad or to the instrument panel. Objects attached to the steering wheel pad and instrument panel may become dangerous projectiles and cause injury if the air bag inflates.
Work on and around the air bag system should be done by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop. Installation of electrical equipment should be done by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop. The yellow SRS wiring harnesses* should not be modified or disconnected. Unauthorised electrical test equipment and probing devices should not be used on the air bag system.
- *SRS wiring harnesses are covered with yellow insulation either just before the harness connectors or on the complete harness, for easy identification.
