systemalsoactivates withthecurtain androllover

When a pretensioner activates, smoke is re-
leased and a loud noise may be heard. This
smoke is notharmful and does not indicate afire.
Care should be taken not to inhale it, as it may
cause irritation and choking. Those with a history
of a breathing condition should get fresh air
promptly.
After pretensioner activation, load limiters allow
the seat belt to release webbing (ifnecessary) to
reduce forces against the chest.
If anyabnormality occurs inthe pretensioner sys-
tem, the supplemental air bag warning
light
will not come on, will flash intermit-
tently or will turn on for 7 seconds and remain on
after the ignition switch has been placed in the
ON or START position. In this case, the preten-
sioner system may not function properly. They
must be checked andrepaired. Take your vehicle
to the nearest NISSAN dealer.
When selling your vehicle, we request that you
inform the buyer about the pretensioner system
and guide the buyer to the appropriate sections
in this Owner’s Manual.
