WARNING
. The pretensioners cannot be reused after
activation. They must be replaced to-
gether 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 preten-
sioner system checked and, if necessary,
replaced. It is recommended you visit an
INFINITI retailer for this service.
. No unauthorized changes should be
made to any components or wiring of
the pretensioners. This is to prevent
damage to or accidental activation of
the pretensioner system. Tampering with
the pretensioner system may result in
serious personal injury.
. It is recommended you visit an INFINITI
retailer for work on and around the
pretensioner system. It is also recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for
installation of electrical equipment. Un-
authorized electrical test equipment and
probing devices should not be used on
the pretensioner system.
. If you need to dispose of the preten-
sioner or scrap the vehicle, it is recom-
mended you visit an INFINITI retailer for
this service. Correct pretensioner dispo-
sal procedures are set forth in the
appropriate INFINITI 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 seat belt activates,
smoke is released and a loud noise may be
heard. The smoke is not harmful, and it
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
is used to indicate malfunctions in the
pretensioner system. (See “Supplemental
air bag warning light” (P.1-54). in this
section for more details.) If the operation of
the supplemental air bag warning light
indicates there is a malfunction, have the
system checked. It is recommended you
visit an INFINITI retailer for this service.
When selling your vehicle, we request that
you inform the buyer about the seat belt
pretensioners and guide the buyer to the
appropriate sections in this Owner’s Man-
ual.
