Infiniti G37 Convertible (2010) [61/444] Front seat mounted side impact supplemental air bag and door mounted curtain side impact supplemental air bag systems
FRONT SEAT-MOUNTED SIDE-IMPACT
SUPPLEMENTAL AIR BAG AND
DOOR-MOUNTED CURTAIN SIDE-
IMPACT SUPPLEMENTAL 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 upper side of the door
panel. These systems are designed to meet
voluntary guidelines to help reduce the risk of
injury to out-of-position occupants. However, all
of the information, cautions and warnings in this
manual still 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 an-
other 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 on the side where the vehicle is
impacted.
Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an
indication of proper supplemental side air bag
and curtain side-impact air bag operation.
When 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 pelvis of the front occupants. Curtain air
bags help to cushion the impact force to the
head of occupants in the front seating posi-
tions. They can help save lives and reduce
serious injuries. However, an inflating side air
bags and curtain air bags 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 bag. The side
air bags and curtain side 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. The side
air bags and curtain air bags will deflate quickly
after the collision is over.
The side air bags and curtain air bags operate
only when the ignition switch is in the ON
position.
After pushing the ignition switch to the ON posi-
tion, the supplemental air bag warning light illu-
minates. The air bag warning light will turn off
after about 7 seconds if the systems are opera-
tional.
