be checked by a NISSAN dealer as soon as
possible.
2. If the light is ON with an adult occupying the
front passenger seat:
● Occupant is a small adult → the air bag light
is functioning as intended. The front passen-
ger air bag is suppressed.
However, if the occupant is not a small adult, then
this may be due to the following conditions that
may be interfering with the weight sensors:
● Occupant is not sitting upright, leaning
against the seat back, and centered on the
seat cushion with feet comfortably extended
to the floor.
● A child seat or other object pressing against
the rear of the seat-back.

cushion and the door.
If the vehicle is moving, please come to a stop
when it is safe to do so. Check and correct any of
the above conditions. Restart the vehicle and
wait one minute.
NOTE:
A system check will be performed during
which the passenger air bag status light
will remain lit for about 7 seconds initially.
If the light is still on after this, the person should
be advised not to ride in the front passenger seat
and the vehicle should be checked by a NISSAN
dealer as soon as possible.

child restraint occupying the front passen-
ger seat.

extended to the floor.
