SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT If any of the following conditions occur, the supplemental front air bag needs servicing and should be taken to your nearest authorized NISSAN dealer. ● The supplemental air bag warning light remains on after approximately 7 seconds. ● The supplemental air bag warning light flashes intermittently. ● The supplemental air bag warning light does not come on at all. APD0554 Repair and replacement procedure The supplemental front air bag modules are designed to inflate on a one-time-only basis. As a reminder, unless it is damaged, the supplemental air bag light remains illuminated after inflation has occurred. Repair and replacement of the air bag system should be done only by an authorized NISSAN dealer. To ensure long-term functioning, the supplemental air bag system must be inspected 10 years after the date of manufacture as noted on the certification label located on the driver side front pillar. When maintenance work is required on the vehicle, the supplemental front air bag system and related parts should be pointed out to the person conducting the maintenance. The ignition key should always be in the LOCK position when working under the hood or inside the vehicle. The supplemental air bag warning light, displaying in the instrument panel, monitors the circuits of the supplemental front air bag system. The circuits monitored by the air bag warning light include the diagnosis sensor unit, front air bag modules and all related wiring. When the ignition key is in the ON or START position, the supplemental air bag warning light illuminates for about 7 seconds and then turns off. This means the system is operational. Under these conditions, the supplemental front air bag may not operate properly. It must be checked and repaired. Take your vehicle to the nearest authorized NISSAN dealer. WARNING If the supplemental air bag warning light is on, it could mean that the supplemental front air bag system will not operate in an accident.
