Checking of A/T PositionINFOID:0000000004917429
With the shift selector in the “P” position, turn the ignition switch to the ON position with the engine OFF.
Confirm that the following conditions apply.
• The shift selector can be shifted from the “P ” position only when the brake pedal is depressed.
• The shift selector stops at each position with the feel of engagement when it is moved through all the posi-
tions.
• There is no excessive effort, sticking, noise or rattle.
• The actual position of the shift selector matches the position shown by the shift position indicator and the A/
T body.
• The back-up lamps illuminate only when the shift selector is placed in the “R” position.
• The back-up lamps do not illuminate when the shift selector is pushed against the “R” position when in the
“P” or “N” position.
• The engine can only be started with the shift selector in the “P” and “N” positions.
• The A/T is locked completely when in the “P” position.
Adjustment of A/T PositionINFOID:0000000004917428
1. Loosen nut of control cable.
2. Place the transmission range switch and shift selector in “P”
position.
3. Push the control cable in the di rection shown with a force of 9.8
N (1kg, 2.2 lb), and release it. This is in the natural state, tighten
control cable nut to specifications.

Checking of A/T Position
INFOID:0000000004917432
1. Place shift selector in “P” position, and turn ignition switch ON (engine stop).
2. Make sure shift selector can be shifted to other than “P” position when brake pedal is depressed. Also make sure shift selector
can be shifted from “P” position only when brake pedal is
depressed.
3. Move the shift selector and check for excessive effort, sticking, noise or rattle.
4. Confirm the shift selector stop s at each position with the feel of
engagement when it is moved through all the positions. Check
whether or not the actual position the shift selector is in matches
the position shown by the shift position indicator and the trans-
mission body.
5. The method of operating the shift selector to individual positions correctly should be as shown.
6. Confirm the back-up lamps illuminate only when shift sele ctor is placed in the “R” position. Confirm the
back-up lamps does not illuminate when shift selector is pushed against “R” position in the “P” or “N” posi-
tion.
7. Confirm the engine can only be started with the shift selector in the “P” and “N” positions.
8. Make sure transmission is locked completely in “P” position.

2. Place transmisson range switch and shift selector in “P” position.
3. After pushing the control cable in the direction shown with a force of 9.8 N·m (1kg-m, 2.2 ft-lb), release it. This is in the natu-
ral state, tighten control cable nut to specifications.

Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000004884177
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “A IR 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 w hether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SR and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WARNING:
• To avoid rendering the SRS inopera tive, 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 performed by
an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
• Improper maintenance, including in correct removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal
injury caused by unintent ional activation of the system. For re moval of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the SR section.
• Do not use electrical test equipmen t on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harn esses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or har-
ness connectors.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING POWER TOOLS (AIR OR ELECTRIC) AND HAMMERS
WARNING:
• When working near the Airbag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Airbag System sensors with the Igni-
tion ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electri c power tools or strike near the sensor(s) with a
hammer. Heavy vibration could activate the sensor( s) and deploy the air bag(s), possibly causing
serious injury.
• When using air or electric power tools or hammers , always switch the Ignition OFF, disconnect the
battery, and wait at least 3 minu tes before performing any service.
Precaution Necessary for Steering W heel Rotation After Battery Disconnect
INFOID:0000000004884178
NOTE:
• This Procedure is applied only to models with Intelligent Key system and NATS (NISSAN ANTI-THEFT SYS-
TEM).
• 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 NATS, an electrically controlled steering lock mech-
anism 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 pow er 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.

the battery cables. (At this time, the steering lock mechanism will engage.)
6. Perform a self-diagnosis check of al l control units using CONSULT-III.
Precaution for Working with HFC-134a (R-134a)INFOID:0000000001516598
WARNING:
• CFC-12 (R-12) refrigerant and HFC-134a (R-134a) refr igerant are not compatible. If the refrigerants
are mixed compressor failure is likely to occur. Refer to HA-4, "
Contaminated Refrigerant". To deter-
mine the purity of HFC-134a (R-134a) in the vehicle and recovery tank, use recovery/recycling equip-
ment and refrigerant identifier.
• Use only specified oil for the HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C system and HFC-134a (R-134a) components. If
oil other than that specified is used, compressor fa ilure is likely to occur.
• The specified HFC-134a (R-134a) oil rapidly absorb s moisture from the atmosphere. The following
handling precautions must be observed:
- When removing refrigerant components from a vehicle, immediately cap (seal) the component to
minimize the entry of mois ture from the atmosphere.
- When installing refrigerant components to a vehicle, do not remove the caps (unseal) until just
before connecting the co mponents. Connect all refrigerant lo op components as quickly as possible
to minimize the entry of moisture into system.
- Only use the specified oil from a sealed container. Immediately r eseal containers of oil. Without
proper sealing, oil will become moisture saturat ed and should not be used.
- Avoid breathing A/C refrigerant and oil vapor or mist. Exposure may irritate eyes, nose and throat.
Remove HFC-134a (R-134a) from the A/C system usi ng certified service equipment meeting require-
ments of SAE J2210 [HFC-134a (R-134a) recycling eq uipment], or J2209 [HFC-134a (R-134a) recovery
equipment]. If accidental system discharge occurs , ventilate work area before resuming service.
Additional health and safety information may be ob tained from refrigerant and oil manufacturers.
- Do not allow A/C oil to come in contact with styrofoam parts. Damage may result.
Precaution for Procedur e without Cowl Top CoverINFOID:0000000001516599
When performing the procedure after removing cowl top cover, cover
the lower end of windshield with urethane, etc.
