Nissan Versa (2024 year). Manual in english

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 clas-
sified 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 front passenger seat occu-
pants should continue to remain seated
as outlined above.

Troubleshooting

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

1. If the light is OFF 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 seat-
back 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 be-
hind it.

• An object placed under the front passen-

ger seat.

• An object placed between the seat cush-

ion 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. Re-
start 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 vehicle
should be checked as soon as possible. It is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.

2. If the light is ON with an adult occupying

the front passenger seat:

• Occupant is a small adult — the air bag light

is functioning as intended. The front pas-
senger air bag and front passenger supple-
mental knee air bag are 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 com-
fortably 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 be-
hind it.

• An object placed under the front passen-

ger seat.

• An object placed between the seat cush-

ion 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. Re-
start the vehicle and wait 1 minute.

checked as soon as possible. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer for
this service.

3. 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 condi-
tions that may be interfering with the
weight sensors:

• Small adult or child is not sitting upright,

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

• The child restraint is not properly in-

stalled, as outlined in the “Child restraints”
section of this manual.

• An object weighing over 9.1 lbs. (4 kg)

hanging on the seat or placed in the seat-
back 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 be-
hind it.

• An object placed under the front passen-

ger seat.

• An object placed between the seat cush-

ion 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. Re-
start 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 re-
positioned in the rear seat and the vehicle
should be checked as soon as possible. It is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.

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 in-
jury if the front air bags inflate.

•

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 inflation 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 system.

Safety-Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

1-55

•

Tampering with the front air bag sys-
tem may result in serious personal
injury. Tampering includes changes
to the steering wheel and the instru-
ment panel assembly by placing ma-
terial 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 example,
do not change the front seats by
placing material on the seat cushion
or by installing additional trim mate-
rial, such as seat covers, on the seat
that are not specifically designed to
assure proper air bag operation. Ad-
ditionally, do not stow any objects
under the front passenger seat or the
seat cushion and seatback. Such ob-
jects may interfere with the proper
operation of the occupant classifica-
tion sensor (weight sensor).

•

No unauthorized changes should be
made to any components or wiring
of the seat belt system. This may af-
fect the front air bag system. Tam-
pering with the seat belt system may
result in serious personal injury.

•

It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for work on and around
the front air bag. It is also recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
for installation of electrical equipment.
The Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) wiring harnesses* should not
be modified or disconnected. Unau-
thorized electrical test equipment and
probing devices should not be used on
the air bag system.

•

A cracked windshield should be re-
placed immediately by a qualified re-
pair facility. A cracked windshield could
affect the function of the supplemental
air bag system.

*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 front air bag
system and guide the buyer to the appropri-
ate sections in this Owner's Manual.

Front and rear outboard
seat-mounted side-impact
supplemental air bag and
roof-mounted curtain
side-impact and rollover
supplemental air bag systems

The side air bags are located in the outside
of the seatback of the front and rear out-
board seats. The curtain air bags are lo-
cated in the side roof rails.

All of the infor-

mation, cautions and warnings in this
manual must be followed.

The side air

bags and curtain air bags are designed to
inflate in higher severity side collisions,

LRS3142

1-56

Safety-Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

although they may inflate if the forces in
another type of collision are similar to
those of a higher severity 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 move-
ments (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 the release of smoke. This
smoke is not harmful and does not indi-
cate a fire. Care should be taken not to
inhale it, as it may cause irritation and
choking. Those with a history of a breath-
ing 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 and
rear outboard 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. How-
ever, an inflating side air bag and 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, front passenger and rear
outboard occupants seated upright as far
as practical away from the side air bag.
Rear seat passengers should be seated as
far away as practical from the door finish-
ers 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 bag and curtain
air bag inflating can increase the risk of
injury if the occupant is too close to, or is
against, these air bag modules during in-
flation. The side air bag will deflate quickly
after the collision is over.

The curtain air bag will remain inflated for a
short time.

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

After placing the ignition switch in the
ON position, the supplemental air bag
warning light illuminates. The supple-
mental air bag warning light will turn off
after about 7 seconds if the system is
operational.

WARNING

•

Do not place any objects near the
seatback of the front and rear seats.
Also, do not place any objects (an
umbrella, bag, etc.) between the front
and rear door finisher and the front
and rear seat. Such objects may be-
come

dangerous

projectiles

and

cause injury if a side air bag inflate.

•

Right after inflation, several side air
bag and curtain air bag system com-
ponents 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 or dam-
age to the side air bag and curtain air
bag systems.

Safety-Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

1-57

•

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 sys-
tem may result in serious personal
injury. For example, do not change
the front and rear 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 that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for work on and
around the side air bag and curtain
air bag. It is also recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer for installa-
tion of electrical equipment. The SRS
wiring harnesses* should not be
modified or disconnected. Unauthor-
ized electrical test equipment and
probing devices should not be used
on the side air bag or curtain air bag
system.

* 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.

Driver and front passenger
supplemental knee air bags

The knee air bag is located in the knee
bolster, on the driver’s and front passen-
ger’s side.

All of the information, cautions

and warnings in this manual apply and
must be followed.

The knee air bag is de-

signed to inflate in higher severity frontal
collisions, although it may inflate if the
forces in another type of collision are simi-
lar to those of a higher severity frontal im-
pact. It may not inflate in certain collisions.

LRS3343

Driver’s side

1-58

Safety-Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system

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

When the knee air bag inflates, 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 irrita-
tion and choking. Those with a history of a
breathing condition should get fresh air
promptly.

The knee air bag helps to cushion the im-
pact force on the knees of the driver and
passenger. It can help reduce serious inju-
ries. However, an inflating knee air bag may
cause abrasions or other injuries. The knee
air bag provides restraint to the lower body.

The knee air bag inflates quickly in order to
help protect the occupants. Because of
this, the force of the knee air bag inflating
can increase the risk of injury if the occu-
pant is too close to, or is against, this air bag
module during inflation. The knee air bag
will deflate quickly after the collision is over
OR the knee air bag will remain inflated for
a short time.

The knee air bag operates only when
the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position.

WARNING

•

Do not place any objects between the
knee bolster and the driver’s or pas-
senger’s seat. Such objects may be-
come

dangerous

projectiles

and

cause injury if a knee air bag inflates.

•

Right after inflation, the knee 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 knee air bag system. This is to
prevent damage to or accidental in-
flation of the knee air bag system.

•

Do not make unauthorized changes
to your vehicle's electrical system or
suspension system. This could affect
proper operation of the knee air bag
system.

•

Tampering with the knee air bag sys-
tem may result in serious personal
injury. For example, do not change
the driver or passenger knee bolster
or install additional trim material
around the knee air bag.

•

It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for work on and
around the knee air bag. It is also rec-
ommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for installation of electrical
equipment. The SRS wiring har-
nesses* should not be modified or
disconnected. Unauthorized electri-
cal test equipment and probing de-
vices should not be used on the knee
air bag system.

Seat belt with pretensioner(s)
(front and rear seats)

WARNING

•

The pretensioner(s) cannot be re-
used after activation. They must be
replaced together with the retractor
and buckle as a unit.

•

If the vehicle becomes involved in a
collision but pretensioner(s) are not
activated, be sure to have the preten-
sioner system checked and, if neces-
sary, replaced. It is recommended
that 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 ac-
tivation of the pretensioner(s). Tam-
pering with the pretensioner system
may result in serious personal injury.

•

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

•

If you need to dispose of the preten-
sioner(s) or scrap the vehicle, it is rec-
ommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service. Incorrect dis-
posal procedures could cause per-
sonal injury.

The pretensioner system may activate
with the supplemental air bag system in
certain types of collisions. Working with the
seat belt retractor, the pretensioner(s) help
tighten the seat belt when the vehicle be-
comes involved in certain types of colli-
sions, helping to restrain front and rear out-
board seat occupants.

The pretensioner(s) are encased within
the seat belt retractor and to the seat belt
anchor affixed to the floor of the vehicle.
These seat belts are used the same way as
conventional seat belts.

When pretensioner(s) activate, smoke is re-
leased and a loud noise may be heard. This
smoke is not harmful and does not indi-
cate a fire. Care should be taken not to
inhale it, as it may cause irritation and
choking. Those with a history of a breath-
ing condition should get fresh air promptly.

After the pretensioner(s’) activation, load
limiters allow the seat belt to release web-
bing (if necessary) to reduce forces against
the chest.

DISTANCE TO EMPTY (DTE)

Displays the estimated distance the vehicle
can be driven before refueling. The value is
calculated based on recent fuel economy,
the amount of fuel remaining in the fuel tank,
and the actual fuel consumption.

Changes in driving patterns or conditions
can cause the DTE value to vary. As a result,
the value displayed may differ from the ac-
tual distance that can be driven.

DTE display will change to “---” when the
fuel level in the tank is getting low, prior to
the fuel gauge reaching 0 (Empty).

NOTE:
• The DTE value after refill is estimated

based on recent fuel economy and
amount of fuel added.

• If a small amount of fuel is added, or

the ignition is on during refueling, the
display may not be updated.

• Conditions that affect the fuel economy

will also affect the estimated DTE value
(city/highway driving, idle time, remote
start time, terrain, seasonal weather,
added vehicle weight, added deflectors,
roof racks, etc.).
