Precaution For Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "Air Bag" And "Seat Belt Pre-TENSIONER"
The Supplemental Restraint System such as "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER", used along with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain types of collision. This system includes seat belt switch inputs and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the "SRS AIR BAG" Refer to: REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION and "SEAT BELT" of this Service information. Refer to: SEAT BELT (HYBRID)
Always observe the following items for preventing accidental activation.
- To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in the event of a collision that would result in air bag inflation, it is recommended that all maintenance and repair be performed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
- Improper repair, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag Module, Refer to: REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION see "SRS AIR BAG".
- Never use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this Service information. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or harness connectors.
