The deactivation of the airbag in the Nissan Qashqai, how does it happen?

Model: Nissan Qashqai J12 - Years 2021-2026
Part: Airbag

In the latest version of the Nissan Qashqai, the passenger airbag management system is very convenient, and to confirm this, here’s a video explaining why. While in many other cars the deactivation is done manually, mainly due to the presence of children and therefore child seats, through a button or selector, in this vehicle it is not necessary, as the seat has a sensor that reads the weight of the occupant. Below a certain threshold, the airbag is automatically deactivated by the control unit, and the corresponding warning light above the rearview mirror is activated.
