LEVEL CHECK

Check if the reservoir tank engine coolant level is within the
“MIN” to “MAX” when engine is cool.

Adjust the engine coolant level as necessary.
CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAKS

To check for leaks, apply pressure to the cooling system with
radiator cap tester (commercial service tool) and radiator cap
tester adapter (SST).
WARNING:
Do not remove radiator cap when engine is hot. Serious
burns could occur from high-pressure engine coolant
escaping from radiator.
CAUTION:
Higher test pressure than specified may cause radiator
damage.
NOTE:
In a case that engine coolant decreases, replenish radiator with engine coolant.

If anything is found, repair or replace damaged parts.
Changing Engine CoolantABS004T9
WARNING:

To avoid being scalded, never change engine coolant when engine is hot.

Wrap a thick cloth around cap and carefully remove cap. First, turn cap a quarter of a turn to
release built-up pressure. Then turn cap all the way.
DRAINING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Remove front engine undercover with power tool.
2. Open radiator drain plug at the bottom of radiator, and remove
radiator cap.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to allow engine coolant to contact drive belts.
When drain all of engine coolant in the system, open water drain plugs on cylinder block. Refer to
EM-121, "
DISASSEMBLY" .
3. Check drained engine coolant for contaminants such as rust, corrosion or discoloration.

Use pliers in the locations where plate pliers A cannot be
used.
5. Make sure that the rim is completely crimped down.
6. Confirm that there is no leakage.
Refer to CO-20, "
INSPECTION" .
INSPECTION
1. Apply pressure with radiator cap tester adapter (SST) and radia-
tor cap tester (commercial service tool).
WARNING:
To prevent the risk of the hose coming undone while under
pressure, securely fasten it down with a hose clamp.
CAUTION:
Attach a hose to A/T fluid cooler to seal its inlet and outlet.
2. Check for leakage by soaking radiator in water container with
the testing pressure applied.

Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
ABS008FV
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along
with a front seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain
types of collision. This system includes seat belt switch inputs and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS
system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front
air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WARNING:

To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death
in the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.

Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to per-
sonal injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air
Bag Module, see the SRS section.

Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or
harness connectors.

Adjust the engine coolant level as necessary.
LEAK CHECK

To check for leaks, apply pressure to the cooling system with
radiator cap tester (commercial service tool) and radiator cap
tester adapter (SST).
WARNING:
Do not remove radiator cap when engine is hot. Serious
burns could occur from high-pressure engine coolant
escaping from thermostat housing.
CAUTION:
Higher testing pressure than specified may cause radiator
damage.
NOTE:
In a case engine coolant decreases, replenish radiator with engine coolant.

If anything is found, repair or replace damaged parts.

WARNING:

To avoid being scalded, do not change engine coolant when engine is hot.

Wrap a thick cloth around radiator cap and carefully remove radiator cap. First, turn radiator cap a
quarter of a turn to release built-up pressure. Then turn radiator cap all the way.
DRAINING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Remove engine front undercover with power tool.
2. Open radiator drain plug at the bottom of radiator, and then
remove radiator cap.

Be careful not to allow engine coolant to contact drive
belts.
When draining all of engine coolant in the system, open water drain plugs on engine cylinder
block. Refer to EM-241, "
DISASSEMBLY" .
3. Check drained engine coolant for contaminants such as rust, corrosion or discoloration.
If contaminated, flush the engine cooling system. Refer to CO-38, "
FLUSHING COOLING SYSTEM" .
4. Remove reservoir tank, drain engine coolant and clean reservoir tank before installing.
