Infiniti FX35 (2010) [70/508] Seat belts with pretensioners front seats
SEAT BELTS WITH PRETENSIONERS
(front seats)
WARNING
The pretensioners cannot be reused after ac-
tivation. They must be replaced together
with the retractor and buckle as a unit.
If the vehicle becomes involved in a frontal
collision but a pretensioner is not activated,
be sure to have the pretensioner system
checked and, if necessary, replaced by an
INFINITI retailer.
No unauthorized changes should be made to
any components or wiring of the preten-
sioner system. This is to prevent damage to
or accidental activation of the pretension-
ers. Tampering with the pretensioner sys-
tem may result in serious personal injury.
Work around and on the pretensioner sys-
tem should be done by an INFINITI retailer.
Installation of electrical equipment should
also be done by an INFINITI retailer. Unau-
thorized electrical test equipment and prob-
ing devices should not be used on the pre-
tensioner system.
If you need to dispose of a pretensioner or
scrap the vehicle, contact an INFINITI re-
tailer. Correct pretensioner disposal proce-
dures are set forth in the appropriate
INFINITI Service Manual. Incorrect disposal
procedures could cause personal injury.
The pretensioner system activates in conjunc-
tion with the front air bag system. The preten-
sioner system also activates with the curtain
and rollover air bags in certain types of rollover
collisions or near rollovers. 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 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 al-
low the seat belt to release webbing (if neces-
sary) to reduce forces against the chest.
If any abnormality occurs in the pretensioner
system, the supplemental air bag warning light
will not come on, will flash intermittently
or will turn on for 7 seconds and remain on after
the ignition switch has been pushed to the ON
position. In this case, the pretensioner system
may not function properly. They must be
checked and repaired. Take your vehicle to the
nearest INFINITI retailer.
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.
