PRECAUTIONS
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
CAUTION:
The new and former refrigerant connections use different O-ring configurations. Do not confuse O-
rings since they are not interchangeable. If a wrong O-ring is installed, refrigerant will leak at or
around the connection.
O-Ring Part Numbers and Specifications
*: Always check with the Parts Department for the latest parts information.
WARNING:
Make sure all refrigerant is discharged into the recycling equipment and the pressure in the system is
less than atmospheric pressure. Then gradually loosen the discharge side hose fitting and remove it.
CAUTION:
When replacing or cleaning refrigerant cycle components, observe the following.

When the compressor is removed, store it in the same position as it is when mounted on the car.
Failure to do so will cause oil to enter the low pressure chamber.

When connecting tubes, always use a torque wrench and a back-up wrench.

After disconnecting tubes, immediately plug all openings to prevent entry of dirt and moisture.

When installing an air conditioner in the vehicle, connect the pipes as the final stage of the opera-
tion. Do not remove the seal caps of pipes and other components until just before required for
connection.

Allow components stored in cool areas to warm to working area temperature before removing seal
caps. This prevents condensation from forming inside A/C components.

Thoroughly remove moisture from the refrigeration system before charging the refrigerant.

Always replace used O-rings.

When connecting tube, apply oil to circle of the O-rings shown in illustration. Be careful not to
apply oil to threaded portion.
Oil name: NISSAN A/C System Oil Type S (DH-PS) or equivalent
Part number: KLH00-PAGS0

O-ring must be closely attached to dented portion of tube.

When replacing the O-ring, be careful not to damage O-ring and tube.

Connect tube until you hear it click, then tighten the nut or bolt by hand until snug. Make sure that
the O-ring is installed to tube correctly.

After connecting line, conduct leak test and make sure that there is no leakage from connections.
When the gas leaking point is found, disconnect that line and replace the O-ring. Then tighten con-
nections of seal seat to the specified torque.

Precautions for Servicing CompressorEJS003WV

Plug all openings to prevent moisture and foreign matter from entering.

When the compressor is removed, store it in the same position as it is when mounted on the car.

When replacing or repairing compressor, follow “Maintenance of Oil Quantity in Compressor”
exactly. Refer to AT C - 2 2 , "
Maintenance of Oil Quantity in Compressor" .

Keep friction surfaces between clutch and pulley clean. If the surface is contaminated with oil,
wipe it off by using a clean waste cloth moistened with thinner.

After compressor service operation, turn the compressor shaft by hand more than 5 turns in both
directions. This will equally distribute oil inside the compressor. After the compressor is installed,
let the engine idle and operate the compressor for 1 hour.

After replacing the compressor magnet clutch, apply voltage to the new one and check for normal
operation. Refer to ATC-176, "
Removal and Installation for Compressor Clutch"

Revision: November 2009 2006 QX56

When welding HSS panels, use spot welding whenever possi-
ble in order to minimize weakening surrounding areas due to
heat.
If spot welding is impossible, use M.I.G. welding. Do not use
gas (torch) welding because it is inferior in welding strength.

The spot weld on HSS panels is harder than that of an ordi-
nary steel panel.
Therefore, when cutting spot welds on a HSS panel, use a
low speed high torque drill (1,000 to 1,200 rpm) to increase
drill bit durability and facilitate the operation.

SP150 HSS panels with a tensile strength of 785 to 981 N/
mm
2 (80 to 100 kg/mm2 , 114 to 142 klb/sq in), used as rein-
forcement in the door guard beams, is too strong to repair.
When these HSS parts are damaged, the outer panels also
sustain substantial damage; therefore, the assembly parts
must be replaced.
2. Precautions in spot welding HSS This work should be performed under standard working condi-
tions. Always note the following when spot welding HSS:

The electrode tip diameter must be sized properly according
to the metal thickness.

The panel surfaces must fit flush to each other, leaving no
gaps.

PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
EFS004VW
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 Brake SystemEFS004VX

Always use recommended brake fluid. Refer to MA-11, "RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS" .

Do not reuse drained brake fluid.

Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas.

To clean or wash all parts of master cylinder, disc brake caliper and wheel cylinder, use clean brake fluid.

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

Use flare nut wrench when removing and installing brake tube.

Always check tightening torque when installing brake lines.

Before working, turn ignition switch to OFF and disconnect con-
nectors for ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) or battery
terminals.

Burnish the brake contact surfaces after refinishing or replacing
drums or rotors, after replacing pads or linings, or if a soft pedal
occurs at very low mileage.
Refer to BR-25, "
BRAKE BURNISHING PROCEDURE" .
WARNING:

Clean brake pads and shoes with a waste cloth, then wipe
with a dust collector.SBR686C
