Nissan Juke (2017 year). Instruction

with the regulations. Also, if a child restraint of
the type specified in the regulations is on the
seat, the occupant classification sensors can
detect it and cause the air bag to turn OFF.

Front passenger seat adult occupants who are
properly seated and using the seat belt as
outlined in this manual should not cause the
passenger air bag to be automatically turned
OFF. For small adults it may be turned OFF,
however, if the occupant does not sit in the seat
properly (for example, by not sitting upright, by
sitting on an edge of the seat, or by otherwise
being out of position), this could cause the
sensors to turn the air bag OFF. Always be sure
to be seated and wearing the seat belt properly
for the most effective protection by the seat belt
and supplemental air bag.

NISSAN recommends that pre-teens and chil-
dren be properly restrained in a rear seat.
NISSAN also recommends that appropriate
child restraints and booster seats be properly
installed in a rear seat. If this is not possible, the
occupant classification sensors are designed to
operate as described above to turn the front
passenger air bag OFF for specified child
restraints. Failing to properly secure child
restraints and to use the Automatic Locking
Retractor (ALR) mode (child restraint mode)
may allow the restraint to tip or move in an
accident or sudden stop. This can also result in

the passenger air bag inflating in a crash instead
of being OFF. (See “Child restraints” (P.1-18)
for proper use and installation.)

If the front passenger seat is not occupied, the
passenger air bag is designed not to inflate in a
crash. However, heavy objects placed on the
seat could result in air bag inflation, because of
the object being detected by the occupant
classification sensors. Other conditions could
also result in air bag inflation, such as if a child is
standing on the seat, or if two children are on the
seat, contrary to the instructions in this manual.
Always be sure that you and all vehicle
occupants are seated and restrained properly.

Using the front passenger air bag status light,
you can monitor when the front passenger air
bag is automatically turned OFF with the seat
occupied. The light will not illuminate when the
front passenger seat is unoccupied.

If an adult occupant is in the seat but the front
passenger air bag status light is illuminated
(indicating that the air bag is OFF), it could be
that the person is a small adult, or is not sitting
on the seat properly.

If a child restraint must be used in the front seat,
the front passenger air bag status light may or
may not be illuminated, depending on the size of
the child and the type of child restraint being
used. If the front passenger air bag status light is

not illuminated (indicating that the air bag might
inflate in a crash), it could be that the child
restraint or seat belt is not being used properly.
Make sure that the child restraint is installed
properly, the seat belt is used properly and the
occupant is positioned properly. If the front
passenger air bag status light is not illuminated,
reposition the occupant or child restraint in a
rear seat.

If the front passenger air bag status light will not
illuminate even though you believe that the child
restraint, the seat belts and the occupant are
properly positioned, the system may be sensing
an unoccupied seat (in which case the air bag is
OFF). Your NISSAN dealer can check that the
system is OFF by using a special tool. However,
until you have confirmed with your dealer that
your air bag is working properly, reposition the
occupant or child restraint in a rear seat.

The air bag system and front passenger air bag
status light will take a few seconds to register a
change in the passenger seat status. However, if
the seat becomes unoccupied, the front pas-
senger air bag status light will remain off.

If a malfunction occurs in the front passenger air
bag system, the supplemental air bag warning
light

, located in the meter and gauges area,

will blink. Have the system checked. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer for

this service.

Normal operation:

In order for the occupant classification sensor
system to classify the front passenger based on
weight, please follow the precautions and steps
outlined below:

Precautions:
. Make sure that there are no objects weigh-

ing over 9.1 lbs (4 kg) hanging on the seat
or placed in the seatback pocket.

. Make sure that a child restraint 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 seat.

. Make sure that the front passenger seat or

seatback 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 seat.

Steps:

1. Adjust the seat as outlined. (See “Seats”

(P.1-2).) Sit upright, leaning against the
seatback, and centered on the seat cushion
with your feet comfortably extended to the
floor.

2. Make sure there are no objects on your lap.

3. Fasten the seat belt as outlined. (See “Seat

belts” (P.1-10).)

4. Remain in this position for 30 seconds

allowing the system to classify the front
passenger before the vehicle is put into
motion.

5. Ensure proper classification by checking the

front passenger air bag status light.

NOTE:

This vehicle’s occupant classification sen-
sor system locks the classification during
driving so it is important that you confirm
that the front passenger is properly classi-
fied prior to driving. Also, the occupant
classification sensor system may recalcu-
late the weight of the occupant when the
vehicle comes to a stop (i.e. stop light, stop
sign, etc.), so the front passenger seat
occupant should continue to remain
seated as outlined above.

Troubleshooting:

If you think the front passenger air bag status
light is incorrect:

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 9.1 lbs (4 kg)

hanging on the seat or placed in the
seatback pocket.

. A child restraint or other object pressing

against the rear of the seatback.

. A rear passenger pushing or pulling on the

back of the front passenger seat.

. Forcing the front seat or seatback against an

object on the seat or floor behind it.

. An object placed under the front passenger

seat.

. An object placed between the seat cushion

and center console or between the seat
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 1 minute.

NOTE:

A system check will be performed during
which the front passenger air bag status

light will remain lit for about 7 seconds
initially.

If the light is still ON after this, it is recom-
mended that the vehicle should be checked by a
NISSAN dealer as soon as possible.

If the light is ON with an adult occupying the
front passenger seat:

. Occupant is a small adult — the front

passenger air bag status light is functioning
as intended. The front passenger 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 seatback, and centered on the
seat cushion with his/her feet comfortably
extended to the floor.

. A child restraint or other object pressing

against the rear of the seatback.

. A rear passenger pushing or pulling on the

back of the front passenger seat.

. Forcing the front seat or seatback against an

object on the seat or floor behind it.

. An object placed under the front passenger

seat.

. An object placed between the seat cushion

and center console or between the seat
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 1 minute.

NOTE:

A system check will be performed during
which the front 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 it is recommended that the vehicle
should be checked by a NISSAN dealer as soon
as possible.

If the light is OFF with a small adult, child or child
restraint occupying the front passenger seat.

This may be due to the following conditions that
may be interfering with the weight sensors:

. Small adult or child is not sitting upright,

leaning against the seatback, and centered
on the seat cushion with his/her feet
comfortably extended to the floor.

. The child restraint is not properly installed,

as outlined. (See “Child restraints” (P.1-
18).)

. An object weighing over 9.1 lbs (4 kg)

hanging on the seat or placed in the
seatback pocket.

. A child restraint or other object pressing

against the rear of the seatback.

. A rear passenger pushing or pulling on the

back of the front passenger seat.

. Forcing the front seat or seatback against an

object on the seat or floor behind it.

. An object placed under the front passenger

seat.

. An object placed between the seat cushion

and center console.

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 1 minute.

NOTE:

A system check will be performed during
which the front passenger air bag status
light will remain lit for about 7 seconds
initially.

If the light is still OFF after this, the small adult,
child or child restraint should be repositioned in
the rear seat and it is recommended that the
vehicle should be checked by a NISSAN dealer
as soon as possible.

Other supplemental front-impact air bag
precautions

WARNING

. Do not place any objects on the

steering wheel pad or on the instru-
ment panel. Also, do not place any
objects between any occupant and
the steering wheel or instrument
panel. Such objects may become
dangerous projectiles and cause
injury if the front air bags inflate.

. Do not place objects with sharp

edges on the seat. Also, do not
place heavy objects on the seat that
will leave permanent impressions in
the seat. Such objects can damage
the seat or occupant classification
sensors (weight sensors). This can
affect the operation of the air bag
system and result in serious perso-
nal injury.

. Do not use water or acidic cleaners

(hot steam cleaners) on the seat.
This can damage the seat or occu-
pant classification sensors. This can
also affect the operation of the air
bag system and result in serious

personal injury.

. Immediately after inflation, several

front air bag system components
will be hot. Do not touch them; you
may severely burn yourself.

. No unauthorized changes should be

made to any components or wiring
of the supplemental air bag system.
This is to prevent accidental infla-
tion of the supplemental air bag or
damage to the supplemental air bag
system.

. Do not make unauthorized changes

to your vehicle’s electrical system,
suspension system or front end
structure. This could affect proper
operation of the front air bag sys-
tem.

. Tampering with the front air bag

system may result in serious perso-
nal injury. Tampering includes
changes to the steering wheel and
the instrument panel assembly by
placing material over the steering
wheel pad and above the instrument
panel or by installing additional trim
material around the air bag system.

. Removing or modifying the front

passenger seat may affect the func-
tion of the air bag system and result
in serious personal injury.

. Modifying or tampering with the

front passenger seat may result in
serious personal injury. For exam-
ple, do not change the front seats by
placing material on the seat cushion
or by installing additional trim ma-
terial, such as seat covers, on the
seat that is not specifically designed
to assure proper air bag operation.
Additionally, do not stow any ob-
jects under the front passenger seat
or the seat cushion and seatback.
Such objects may interfere with the
proper operation of the occupant
classification sensors.

. No unauthorized changes should be

made to any components or wiring
of the seat belt system. This may
affect the front air bag system.
Tampering with the seat belt system
may result in serious personal in-
jury.

. It is recommended you visit a

NISSAN dealer for work on and
around the front air bag. It is also

recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for installation of electrical
equipment. The Supplemental Re-
straint System (SRS) wiring har-
nesses* should not be modified or
disconnected. Unauthorized electri-
cal test equipment and probing
devices should not be used on the
air bag system.

. A cracked windshield should be

replaced immediately by a qualified
repair facility. A cracked windshield
could affect the function of the
supplemental air bag system.

FRONT SEAT-MOUNTED SIDE-IM-
PACT SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG AND
ROOF-MOUNTED CURTAIN SIDE-IM-
PACT AND ROLLOVER SUPPLEMEN-
TAL AIR BAG SYSTEMS

The side air bags are located in the outside of
the seatback of the front seats. The curtain air
bags are located in the side roof rails. All of the
information, cautions and warnings in this
manual apply and must be followed. The
side air bags and curtain air bags are designed
to inflate in higher severity side collisions,
although they may inflate if the forces in another
type of collision are similar to those of a higher
severity side impact. They are designed to inflate

on the side where the vehicle is impacted. They
may not inflate in certain side collisions.

Curtain air bags are also designed to inflate in
certain types of rollover collisions or near
rollovers. As a result, certain vehicle movements
(for example, during severe off-roading) may
cause the curtain air bags to inflate.

Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an
indication of proper side air bag and curtain air
bag operation.

When the side air bags and curtain air bags
inflate, a fairly loud noise may be heard, followed
by release of smoke. This smoke is not harmful
and does not indicate a fire. 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.

Side air bags, along with the use of seat belts,
help to cushion the impact force on the chest
and pelvic area of the front occupants. Curtain
air bags help to cushion the impact force to the
head of occupants in the front and rear outboard
seating positions. They can help save lives and
reduce serious injuries. However, an inflating
side air bag or curtain air bag may cause
abrasions or other injuries. Side air bags and
curtain air bags do not provide restraint to the
lower body.

The seat belts should be correctly worn and the

driver and passenger seated upright as far as
practical away from the side air bags. Rear seat
passengers should be seated as far away as
practical from the door finishers and side roof
rails. The side air bags and curtain air bags
inflate quickly in order to help protect the
occupants. Because of this, the force of the
side air bags and curtain air bags inflating can
increase the risk of injury if the occupant is too
close to, or is against, these air bag modules
during inflation. In a rollover, the curtain air bags
on both sides are designed to inflate. Under
both side-impact situations, the curtain air bags
will remain inflated for a short period of time.

The side air bags and curtain air bags
operate only when the ignition switch is in
the ON position.

After turning the ignition switch to the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warning
light illuminates. The supplemental air bag
warning light will turn off after about 7
seconds if the systems are operational.

WARNING

. Do not place any objects near the

seatback of the front seats. Also, do
not place any objects (an umbrella,
bag, etc.) between the front door

finisher and the front seat. Such
objects may become dangerous
projectiles and cause injury if a side
air bag inflates.

. Right after inflation, several side air

bag and curtain air bag system
components will be hot. Do not
touch them; you may severely burn
yourself.

. No unauthorized changes should be

made to any components or wiring
of the side air bag and curtain air
bag systems. This is to prevent
damage to or accidental inflation
of the side air bag and curtain air
bag systems.

. Do not make unauthorized changes

to your vehicle’s electrical system,
suspension system or side panel.
This could affect proper operation
of the side air bag and curtain air
bag systems.

. Tampering with the side air bag

system may result in serious perso-
nal injury. For example, do not
change the front seats by placing
material near the seatbacks or by
installing additional trim material,
such as seat covers, around the side

air bag.

. It is recommended you visit a

NISSAN dealer for work on and
around the side air bag and curtain
air bag. It is also recommended you
visit a NISSAN dealer for installa-
tion of electrical equipment. The
Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) wiring harnesses* should not
be modified or disconnected. Un-
authorized electrical test equipment
and probing devices should not be
used on the side air bag or curtain
air bag systems.

*The SRS wiring harness connectors are
yellow and orange for easy identification.

When selling your vehicle, we request that you
inform the buyer about the side air bag and
curtain air bag systems and guide the buyer to
the appropriate sections in this Owner’s Manual.

SEAT BELTS WITH PRETENSIONERS
(front seats)

WARNING

. The pretensioners cannot be reused

after activation. They must be re-

placed together with the retractor
and buckle as a unit.

. If the vehicle becomes involved in a

collision but a pretensioner is not
activated, be sure to have the pre-
tensioner system checked and, if
necessary, repaired. It is recom-
mended you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.

. No unauthorized changes should be

made to any components or wiring
of the pretensioner system. This is
to prevent damage to or accidental
activation of the pretensioners.
Tampering with the pretensioner
system may result in serious perso-
nal injury.

. It is recommended you visit a

NISSAN dealer for work on and
around the pretensioner system. It
is also recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer for installation of
electrical equipment. Unauthorized
electrical test equipment and prob-
ing devices should not be used on
the pretensioner system.

. If you need to dispose of a preten-

sioner or scrap the vehicle, it is
recommended you visit a NISSAN

dealer for this service. Correct pre-
tensioner disposal procedures are
set forth in the appropriate NISSAN
Service Manual. Incorrect disposal
procedures could cause personal
injury.

The pretensioner system may activate with the
supplemental air bag system in certain types of
collisions. Working with the seat belt retractor, it
helps tighten the seat belt when the vehicle
becomes involved in certain types of collisions,
helping to restrain front seat occupants.

The pretensioner is encased with the seat belt
retractor. These seat belts are used the same
way as conventional seat belts.

When a pretensioner activates, smoke is re-
leased and a loud noise may be heard. The
smoke is not harmful and does not indicate a
fire. 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 (if necessary) to
reduce forces against the chest.

The supplemental air bag warning light

used to indicate malfunctions in the pretensioner
system. See “Supplemental air bag warning

light” (P.1-54). If the operation of the supple-
mental air bag warning light indicates there is a
malfunction, have the system checked. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer for this
service.

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.

SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG WARNING
LIGHT

The supplemental air bag warning light, display-
ing

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 illumi-
nates for about 7 seconds and then turns off.
This means the system is operational.

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

. 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.

Under these conditions, the air bag and/or
pretensioner systems may not operate properly.
They must be checked and repaired. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer 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 recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.

REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT PRO-
CEDURE

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 supplemental air bag warning light
will remain illuminated after inflation has oc-
curred. These systems should be repaired and/
or replaced as soon as possible. It is recom-
mended you visit a NISSAN dealer for this
service.

When maintenance work is required on the
vehicle, the front air bags, side air bags, curtain
air bags and pretensioners and related parts
should be pointed out to the person performing
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 pretensioners must
also be replaced. The air bag mod-
ule and pretensioner should be
replaced. It is recommended you

visit a NISSAN dealer for this ser-
vice. However, the air bag modules
and pretensioner system cannot be
repaired.

. The front air bag, side air bag and

curtain air bag systems, and preten-
sioner system should be inspected
if there is any damage to the front
end or side portion of the vehicle. It
is recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.

. If you need to dispose of a supple-

mental air bag or pretensioner or
scrap the vehicle, it is recommended
you visit a NISSAN dealer. Correct
supplemental air bag and preten-
sioner system disposal procedures
are set forth in the appropriate
NISSAN Service Manual. Incorrect
disposal procedures could cause
personal injury.

. If there is an impact to your vehicle

from any direction, your Occupant
Classification Sensor (OCS) should
be checked to verify it is still
functioning correctly. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service. The OCS
should be checked even if no air

bags deploy as a result of the
impact. Failure to verify proper
OCS function may result in an
improper air bag deployment result-
ing in injury or death.
