PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
NFS000RO
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.
Precautions for Procedures without Cowl Top CoverNFS000RP
When performing the procedure after removing cowl top cover, cover
the lower end of windshield with urethane, etc.
Precautions for Brake SystemNFS000RQ

Clean dust on front brake and rear brake with a vacuum dust collector. Do not blow with compressed air.

Recommended fluid is brake fluid “DOT 3”. Refer to MA-12, "Fluids and Lubricants" .

Never reuse drained brake fluid.

Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it may cause paint damage. If brake fluid is splashed
on painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.

Use clean brake fluid, to clean or wash all parts of master cylinder and disc brake caliper, etc.

Never use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene. They will ruin rubber parts of the hydraulic system.

Use flare nut torque wrench when installing brake tube.

When installing brake tube and hose, be sure to check torque.

Before working, turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect con-
nectors of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) or battery
cable from the negative terminal.

Burnish the brake contact surfaces after refinishing or replacing
rotors, after replacing pads, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low
mileage. Refer to BR-27, "
BRAKE BURNISHING PROCE-
DURE" (front disc brake), BR-33, "BRAKE BURNISHING PRO-
CEDURE" (rear disc brake).
WARNING:

Clean brake pads and shoes with a waste cloth, then wipe with a dust collector.

REMOVAL
1. Remove instrument driver lower panel. Refer to IP-10, "INSTRUMENT PANEL ASSEMBLY" .
2. Remove steering column assembly. Refer to PS-13, "
STEERING COLUMN" .
3. Disconnect stop lamp switch and brake switch connector.
4. Remove stop lamp switch and brake switch from brake pedal assembly.
5. Disconnect brake pedal stroke sensor connector.(With pre-crash seat belt)
CAUTION:
Brake pedal stroke sensor is not detachable. Do not detach it.
6. Remove snap pin and clevis pin from clevis of brake booster.
7. Remove brake pedal assembly mounting nuts. Pull brake booster toward engine room to the extent that
does not deform brake tube.
8. Remove brake booster clevis from input rod.
9. Remove mounting bolt and then remove brake pedal assembly from vehicle.
INSPECTION AFTER REMOVAL

Check the items below. If any is found, replace brake pedal
assembly.
–Check brake pedal upper rivet for deformation.
–Make sure that joint length “L” of sub-bracket and sliding plate is
4 mm (0.16 in) or more.
–Check brake pedal for bend, damage, and cracks on the welded
parts.

Check clevis pin and plastic stopper for damage and deforma-
tion. If any is found, replace clevis pin.
INSTALLATION
Installation is the reverse order of removal. Tightening torques for brake pedal assembly mounting nuts and
bolt are referred to BR-7, "
COMPONENTS" . Tightening torque for lock nut is referred to BR-18, "COMPO-
NENTS" .

Adjust brake pedal height after installing brake pedal assembly to vehicle. Refer to BR-6, "Inspection and
Adjustment" .

Precautions for Brake SystemNFS000Q0

Recommended fluid is brake fluid “DOT 3”. Refer to MA-12, "RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRI-
CANTS" .

Do not reuse drained brake fluid.

Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted surface of body. If brake fluid is splashed on painted sur-
faces of body immediately wipe off then with cloth and then wash it away with water.

Do not use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene. They will ruin rubber parts of the hydraulic system.

Use a flare nut wrench when removing flare nuts, and use a flare
nut crowfoot and torque wrench when tighten brake tube flare
nuts.

When installing brake tubes, be sure to check torque.

Brake system is an important safety part. If a brake fluid leak is
detected, always disassemble the affected part. If a malfunction
is detected, replace part with a new one.

Before working, turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect con-
nectors of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) or battery
negative terminal.
WARNING:
Clean brake pads and shoes with a waste cloth, then wipe with a dust collector.
