Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
EES001GX
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 Rear SuspensionEES001GY
When installing the rubber bushings, the final tightening must be done under unladen condition and with
the tires on level ground. Oil will shorten the life of the rubber bushings, so wipe off any spilled oil immedi-
ately.
Unladen condition means the fuel tank, engine coolant and lubricants are at the full specification. The
spare tire, jack, hand tools, and mats are in their designated positions.
After installing suspension components, check the wheel alignment.
Caulking nuts are not reusable. Always use new caulking nuts for installation. New caulking nuts are pre-
oiled, do not apply any additional lubrication.

When replacing seat belt assembly, use a genuine NISSAN seat belt assembly.
AFTER A COLLISION
WARNING:
Inspect all seat belt assemblies including retractors and attaching hardware after any collision.
NISSAN recommends that all seat belt assemblies in use during a collision be replaced unless the
collision was minor and the belts show no damage and continue to operate properly. Failure to do
so could result in serious personal injury in an accident. Seat belt assemblies not in use during a
collision should also be replaced if either damage or improper operation is noted. Seat belt pre-
tensioner 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, etc.)
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 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.

ALL-MODE 4WD SYSTEM
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
4WD mode. Setting the vehicle in the 2WD mode requires no pressure buildup. In other words, pressure force
applied to the wet-multiplate clutch becomes zero.
CLUTCH PRESSURE SOLENOID VALVE
The clutch pressure solenoid valve distributes torque (front and rear) in AUTO mode.
LINE PRESSURE SWITCH
With the transfer system design, control of the oil pressure provides the transmission of drive torque to the
front wheels. The main pressure to control the oil pressure is referred to as the line pressure.
The line pressure switch determines whether or not adequate line pressure has built up under different
operating conditions.
The line pressure switch turns ON when line pressure is produced.
The line pressure switch senses line pressure abnormalities and turns the 4WD warning lamp ON.
CLUTCH PRESSURE SWITCH
The clutch pressure switch determines whether or not adequate clutch pressure has built up under differ-
ent operating conditions.
The clutch pressure switch turns ON when clutch pressure is produced.
The clutch pressure switch senses clutch pressure abnormalities and turns the 4WD warning lamp ON.
TRANSFER FLUID TEMPERATURE SENSOR
The transfer temperature sensor detects the transfer fluid temperature and sends a signal to the transfer con-
trol unit.
TRANSFER CONTROL UNIT
Transfer control unit controls transfer control device by input signals of each sensor and each switch.
Self-diagnosis can be done.
TRANSFER CONTROL DEVICE
The transfer control device changes the state of transfer assembly between 2WD, AUTO, 4H⇔4LO with the
2WD, AUTO, 4H and 4LO signals of 4WD shift switch.
NOTE:
To shift between 4H ⇔4LO, stop the vehicle, depress the brake pedal and shift the transmission selector
to the "N" position. Depress and turn the 4WD shift switch. The shift switch will not shift to the desired
mode if the transmission is not in "N" or the vehicle is moving. The 4LO indicator lamp will be lit when the
4LO is engaged.
Actuator motor and actuator position switch are integrated.
4WD SHIFT SWITCH AND INDICATOR LAMP
4WD Shift Switch
The 4WD shift switch allows selection from 2WD, AUTO, 4H or 4LO.
4WD Shift Indicator Lamp
Displays driving conditions selected by 4WD shift switch with 2WD, AUTO and 4H indicators while engine
is running. (When 4WD warning lamp is turned on, all 4WD shift indicator lamps are turned off.)
Turns ON for approximately 1 second when ignition switch is turned ON, for purpose of lamp check.
4LO Indicator Lamp
Displays 4LO condition while engine is running. 4LO indicator lamp flashes if transfer gear does not shift
completely under 2WD, AUTO, 4H ⇔4LO. (When 4WD warning lamp is turned on, 4LO indicator lamp is
turned off.)
Turns ON for approximately 1 second when ignition switch is turned ON, for purpose of lamp check.
