Precaution for Seat Belt ServiceINFOID:0000000006217608
CAUTION:
 Before removing the front seat belt pre-tensioner assembly, turn the ignition switch off, disconnect
battery negative terminal and wait at least 3 minutes.
 Never use electrical test equipment for front seat belt pre-tensioner connector.
 After replacing or reinstalling front seat belt pre-tensioner assembly, or reconnecting front seat belt
pre-tensioner connector, check th e system function. Refer to SRC-14, "
Description".
 Never use disassembled buckle or seat belt assembly.
 Replace anchor bolts if th ey are deformed or worn out.
 Never oil tongue and buckle.
 If any component of seat belt assembly is questiona ble, do not repair. Replace the entire seat belt
assembly.
 If webbing is cut, frayed or damaged, replace seat belt assembly.
 When replacing seat belt assembly, u se a genuine NISSAN seat belt assembly.
AFTER A COLLISION
WARNING:
Inspect all seat belt assemblies including retractors and attached hardware after any collision.
NISSAN recommends that all seat belt assemblies in u se during a collision be replaced unless the col-
lision was minor and the belts show no damage a nd continue to operate properly. Failure to do so
could result in serious personal injury in an accide nt. Seat belt assemblies not in use during a colli-
sion should also be replaced if either damage or im proper operation is noted. Seat belt pre-tensioners
should be replaced even if the seat belts are not in use during a frontal collision in which the air bags
are deployed.
Replace any seat belt assembly (including anchor bolts) if:
 The seat belt was in use at the time of a collision (except for minor collisions and the belts, retractors and
buckles show no damage and continue to operate properly).
 The seat belt was damaged in an accident (i.e. torn webbing, bent retractor or guide).
 The seat belt attaching point was damaged in an accident. Inspect the seat belt attaching area for damage or distortion and repair as necessary before installing a new seat belt assembly.
 Anchor bolts are deformed or worn out.
 The front seat belt pre-tensioner should be replaced even if the seat belts are not in use during the collision
in which the air bags are deployed.

 Hook a spring balance at the point shown in the figure and pull the spring balance. Make sure that the spring balance reads the spec-
ified value when ball stud and inner socket start to move. Replace
outer socket and inner socket if they are outside the standard.
BALL JOINT ROTATING TORQUE
 Make sure that the reading is within the following specified rangeusing preload gauge (A) [SST: ST3127S000 (J-25765-A)]. Replace
outer socket if the reading is outside the specified value.
BALL JOINT AXIAL END PLAY
 Apply an axial load of 490 N (50 kg, 110 lb) to ball stud. Using adial gauge, measure amount of stud movement, and then make
sure that the value is within the following specified range. Replace
outer socket (1) and inner socket (2) if the measured value is out-
side the standard.

 After installation, bleed air from the steering hydraulic system. Refer to ST-30, "Inspection".
 Check if steering wheel turns smoothly when it is turned several times fully to the end of the left and right.
 Check the steering wheel play, neutral position steeri ng wheel, steering wheel turning force, and front wheel
turning angle. Refer to ST-32, "
Inspection".
 Check the fluid level, fluid leakage, and air bleeding hydraulic system. Refer to ST-30, "
Inspection".
