SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG
WARNING LIGHT

The supplemental air bag warning light,
displaying

in the instrument panel,

monitors the circuits for the air bag systems,
pretensioners and all related wiring.

When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warning
light illuminates for about 7 seconds and
then turns off. This means the SRS air bag
systems are operational.

If any of the following conditions occur, the
air bag and/or pretensioner systems need
servicing:

. The supplemental air bag warning light

remains on after approximately 7 sec-
onds.

. The supplemental air bag warning light

flashes intermittently.

. The supplemental air bag warning light

does not come on at all.

Under these conditions, the air bag and/or
pretensioner systems may not operate prop-
erly. They must be checked and repaired. It is
recommended you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service.

WARNING

If the supplemental air bag warning light
is on, it could mean that the front air
bag, side air bag, curtain air bag and/or
pretensioner systems will not operate in
an accident. To help avoid injury to
yourself or others, have your vehicle
checked as soon as possible. It is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for
this service.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT
PROCEDURE

The front air bags, side air bags, curtain air
bags and pretensioners are designed to
activate on a one-time-only basis. As a
reminder, unless it is damaged, the supple-
mental air bag warning light will remain
illuminated after inflation has occurred.
These systems should be repaired and/or
replaced as soon as possible. It is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for this
service.

When maintenance work is required on the
vehicle, the front air bags, side air bags,
curtain air bags, pretensioners and related
parts should be pointed out to the person
conducting the maintenance. The ignition
switch should always be in the LOCK
position when working under the hood or
inside the vehicle.

WARNING

. Once a front air bag, side air bag, or

curtain air bag has inflated, the air
bag module will not function again
and must be replaced. Additionally,
the activated pretensioner must also
be replaced. The air bag module and
pretensioner should be replaced. It is

recommended you visit an INFINITI
retailer for this service. However, the
air bag module and pretensioner
system cannot be repaired.

. The front air bag, side air bag, curtain

air bag and the pretensioner system
should be inspected if there is any
damage to the front end or side
portion of the vehicle. It is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer
for this service.

. If you need to dispose of the supple-

mental air bag or pretensioner or
scrap the vehicle, it is recommended
you visit an INFINITI retailer. Correct
supplemental air bag and seat belt
pretensioner system disposal proce-
dures are set forth in the appropriate
INFINITI Service Instruction. Incorrect
disposal procedures could cause per-
sonal injury.
