Precautions Necessary for Steering Wheel Rotation After Battery DisconnectNDS000EK
NOTE:

This Procedure is applied only to models with Intelligent Key system and NVIS/IVIS (NISSAN/INFINITI
VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM - NATS).

Remove and install all control units after disconnecting both battery cables with the ignition knob in the
″LOCK″ position.

Always use CONSULT-III to perform self-diagnosis as a part of each function inspection after finishing
work. If DTC is detected, perform trouble diagnosis according to self-diagnostic results.
For models equipped with the Intelligent Key system and NVIS/IVIS, an electrically controlled steering lock
mechanism is adopted on the key cylinder.
For this reason, if the battery is disconnected or if the battery is discharged, the steering wheel will lock and
steering wheel rotation will become impossible.
If steering wheel rotation is required when battery power is interrupted, follow the procedure below before
starting the repair operation.
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Connect both battery cables.
NOTE:
Supply power using jumper cables if battery is discharged.
2. Use the Intelligent Key or mechanical key to turn the ignition switch to the ″ACC″ position. At this time, the
steering lock will be released.
3. Disconnect both battery cables. The steering lock will remain released and the steering wheel can be
rotated.
4. Perform the necessary repair operation.
5. When the repair work is completed, return the ignition switch to the ″LOCK″ position before connecting
the battery cables. (At this time, the steering lock mechanism will engage.)
6. Perform a self-diagnosis check of all control units using CONSULT-III.
Service Notice or PrecautionsNDS000EL

Check for the correct installation status prior to removal or disassembly. If matching marks are required,
be certain they do not interfere with the function of the parts when applied.

Overhaul should be done in a clean work area, it is preferable to work in dustproof area.

Before disassembly, using steam or white gasoline, completely remove sand and mud from the exterior of
the unit, preventing them from entering into the unit during disassembly or assembly.

Check appearance of the disassembled parts for damage, deformation, and unusual wear. Replace them
with a new ones if necessary.

Gaskets, seals and O-rings should be replaced any time when the unit is disassembled.

In principle, tighten bolts or nuts gradually in several steps working diagonally from inside to outside. If
tightening sequence is specified, observe it.

Clean and flush the parts sufficiently and blow-dry them.

Be careful not to damage sliding surfaces and mating surfaces.

When applying sealant, remove the old sealant from the mounting surface; then remove any moisture, oil,
and foreign materials from the application and mounting surfaces.

Always use shop paper for cleaning the inside of components.

Avoid using cotton gloves or shop rags to prevent entering of lint.

During assembly, observe the specified tightening torque, and apply new gear oil, petroleum jelly, or multi-
purpose grease as specified for each vehicle, if necessary.

PRECAUTIONS
Revision: 2007 April2007 M35/M45

Do not run engine when the fuel tank level is low, otherwise the engine may misfire, causing damage to
the catalyst.
Do not place the vehicle on flammable material. Keep flammable material off the exhaust pipe and the three
way catalyst.
Precautions for Fuel (Unleaded Premium Gasoline Recommended) (VQ35DE
Engine Models)
NAS0009H
INFINITY recommends the use of unleaded premium gasoline with an octane rating of at least 91 AKI (Anti-
Knock Index) number (Research octane number 96).
If unleaded premium gasoline is not available, you may use unleaded regular gasoline with an octane rating of
at least 87 AKI number (Research octane number 91), but you may notice a decrease in performance.
CAUTION:
Do not use leaded gasoline. Using leaded gasoline will damage the three way catalyst. Do not use E-85
fuel (85%fuel ethanol, 15% unleaded gasoline) unless the vehicle is specifically designed for E-85 fuel
(i.e. Flexible Fuel Vehicle - FFV models). Using a fuel other than that specified could adversely affect
the emission control devices and systems, and could also affect the warranty coverage validity.
Precautions for Fuel (Unleaded Premium Gasoline Required) (VK45DE Engine
Models)
NAS0009I
Use unleaded premium gasoline with an octane rating of at least 91 AKI (Anti-Knock Index) number (Research
octane number 96).
If unleaded premium gasoline is not available, unleaded regular gasoline with an octane rating of at least 87
AKI number (Research octane number 91) can be used, but only under the following precautions:

Have the fuel tank filled only partially with unleaded regular gasoline, and fill up with unleaded premium
gasoline as soon as possible.

Avoid full throttle driving and abrupt acceleration.
However, for maximum vehicle performance, the use of unleaded premium gasoline is recommended.
CAUTION:
Do not use leaded gasoline. Using leaded gasoline will damage the three way catalyst. Do not use E-85
fuel (85%fuel ethanol, 15% unleaded gasoline) unless the vehicle is specifically designed for E-85 fuel
(i.e. Flexible Fuel Vehicle - FFV models). Using a fuel other than that specified could adversely affect
the emission control devices and systems, and could also affect the warranty coverage validity.
Precautions for Multiport Fuel Injection System or Engine Control SystemNAS0009J

Before connecting or disconnecting any harness connector for
the multiport fuel injection system or ECM:
Turn ignition switch to “OFF” position.

Always attach safety chains before towing.

When towing, make sure that the transmission, steering system and powertrain are in good order.
If any unit is damaged, dollies must be used.

Never tow an automatic transmission model from the rear (that is backward) with four wheels on
the ground. This may cause serious and expensive damage to the transmission.
2WD MODELS
INFINITI recommends that vehicle be towed with the driving (rear) wheels off the ground or that a dolly be
used as illustrated.
CAUTION:

Never tow automatic transmission models with the rear wheels on the ground or four wheels on
the ground (forward or backward), as this may cause serious and expensive damage to the trans-
mission.
If it is necessary to tow the vehicle with the front wheels raised, always use towing dollies under
the rear wheels.

When towing rear wheel drive models with the front wheels on the ground or on towing dollies:
–Turn the ignition key to the OFF position, and secure the steering wheel in a straight ahead posi-
tion with a rope or similar device.Never secure the steering wheel by turning the ignition key to the
LOCK position. This may damage the steering lock mechanism.
–Move the selector lever to the N (Neutral) position.

When the battery of vehicle equipped with the Intelligent Key system is discharged, your vehicle
