Component Parts Location

The driver air bag module is dual stage and located in the steering wheel assembly. It operates with the SRS system in a frontal collision exceeding a specified level.

The front passenger air bag module is dual stage and is located behind the instrument panel assembly. It operates with the SRS system in a frontal collision exceeding a specified level. Refer to System Description for more information.

The left knee air bag module is single stage and located in the instrument panel assembly below the steering wheel. It operates with the SRS system in a frontal collision exceeding a specified level. Refer to System Description for more information.

The right knee air bag module is single stage and located in the instrument panel assembly below the glove box assembly. It operates with the SRS system in a frontal collision exceeding a specified level. Refer to System Description for more information.

Side air bag modules are built into the front seat back assemblies. Vehicles with side air bags are equipped with labels as shown.

Side curtain air bag modules are located above the vehicle headliner.

Vehicles with side curtain air bags are equipped with labels on the pillar upper finishers.

The seat belt pre-tensioner system with load limiter is installed for both the driver seat and the front passenger seat. It operates simultaneously with the SRS air bag system in the event of a frontal collision with an impact exceeding a specified level.

When a frontal collision with an impact exceeding a specified level occurs, seat belt slack resulting from clothing or other factors is immediately taken up by the shoulder belt pre-tensioner (1) as well as the passenger seat lap belt pre-tensioner (2). Nissan Murano Vehicle passengers are securely restrained.

When passengers in a vehicle are thrown forward in a collision and the restraining force of the seat belt exceeds a specified level, the load limiter permits the specified extension of the seat belt by the twisting of the ELR shaft and a relaxation of the chest-area seat belt web tension while maintaining force.

The air bag diagnosis sensor unit is located under the center console assembly. The air bag diagnosis sensor unit receives signals from multiple SRS sensors and controls the deployment of the air bags. The deployment of the air bags depends on the type and severity of the collision. The air bag diagnosis sensor unit has self-diagnosis capability through the use of the CONSULT as well as flash codes displayed by the air bag warning lamp.

The crash zone sensor is located behind the radiator and underneath the front air duct. The crash zone sensor sends signals to the air bag diagnosis sensor unit during a frontal collision. This sensor may be identified by a yellow connector.

The front side air bag satellite sensors are located on the front center pillar LH and RH next to the seat belt pre-tensioners. The front side air bag satellite sensors send signals to the air bag diagnosis sensor unit during a side collision. These sensors may be identified by yellow connectors.

The rear side air bag satellite sensors are located behind the rear wheel house finisher LH and RH. The rear side air bag satellite sensors send signals to the air bag diagnosis sensor unit during a side collision. These sensors may be identified by yellow connectors.

The front door satellite sensors are located in the driver and passenger doors. The front door satellite sensors send signals to the air bag diagnosis sensor unit during a side collision. These sensors may be identified by yellow connectors.

Front passenger air bag OFF indicator indicates whether or not passenger air bag is in the activation mode based on the judgment of occupant detection system.

The seat belt pre-tensioner system with load limiter is installed for both the LH rear seat and the RH rear seat. It operates simultaneously with the SRS air bag system in the event of a frontal collision with an impact exceeding a specified level.

When a frontal collision with an impact exceeding a specified level occurs, seat belt slack resulting from clothing or other factors is immediately taken up by the shoulder belt pre-tensioner. When passengers in a Nissan Murano vehicle are thrown forward in a collision and the restraining force of the seat belt exceeds a specified level, the load limiter permits the specified extension of the seat belt by the twisting of the ELR shaft and a relaxation of the chest-area seat belt web tension while maintaining force.

Rear side air bag modules are built into the rear seat back assemblies. Vehicles with rear side air bags are equipped with labels as shown.
