status light will go from OFF to ON for a few seconds and then to OFF. This is normal system operation and does not indicate a malfunction. If a malfunction occurs in the front passenger air bag system, the supplemental air bag warning , located in the meter and gauges area light of the instrument panel, will blink. Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer. Normal operation In order for the Occupant Classification System to classify the right front passenger based on weight, please follow the precautions and steps outlined below: Precautions ● Make sure there are no objects weighing over 2.2 lbs (1 kg) hanging on the seat or placed in the seat-back pocket. ● Make sure that a child seat 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's seat. ● Make sure that the front seat or seat-back 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's seat. Steps 1. Adjust the seat as outlined in the "Seats" section of the Owner's Manual. Sit upright, leaning against the seat back, and centered on the seat cushion with your feet comfortably extended to the floor. 2. Make sure there are no objects on the occupant's lap. 3. Fasten the seat belt as outlined in the "Seat belts" section of the Owner's Manual. 4. Remain in this position for 30 seconds allowing the system to classify the passenger before the vehicle is put into motion. 5. Ensure proper classification by checking the passenger air bag status light. NOTE: This vehicle's occupant classification system locks the classification during driving so it is important that you confirm that the passenger is properly classified prior to driving. Also, the occupant classification system may recalculate the weight of the occupant when the vehicle comes to a stop (i.e stop light, stop sign etc.), so front passenger seat occupants should continue to remain seated as outlined above. Troubleshooting If you think the passenger air bag status light is incorrect: 1. If the light is ON with no front passenger and no objects on the front passenger seat: This may be due to the following conditions that may be interfering with the weight sensors: ● An object weighing over 2.2 lbs (1 kg) hanging on the seat or placed in the seat-back pocket. ● A child seat or other object pressing against the rear of the seat-back. ● A rear passenger pushing or pulling on the back of the front passenger's seat.
