Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000004857574
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:0000000004857587
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.

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 al l control units using CONSULT-III.
Precaution for Liquid GasketINFOID:0000000001538839
REMOVAL OF LIQUID GASKET SEALING
• After removing the bolts and nuts, separate the mating surface and
remove the old liquid gasket sealing using Tool.
CAUTION:
Do not damage the mating surfaces.
• Tap the seal cutter to insert it (1).
• In areas where the Tool is difficult to use, lightly tap to slide it (2).
LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Remove the old liquid gasket adhering to the gasket application surface and the mating surface using suitable tool.
• Remove the liquid gasket completely from the groove of the
liquid gasket application surface, bolts, and bolt holes.
2. Thoroughly clean the mating surfaces and remove adhering moisture, grease and foreign material.
3. Attach the liquid gasket tube to the Tool. Use Genuine RTV Silicone Sealant or equivalent. Refer to
GI-15, "
Recommended Chemical Products and Sealants".
4. Apply the liquid gasket without breaks to the specified location with the specified dimensions.
• If there is a groove for the liquid gasket application, apply theliquid gasket to the groove.
• As for the bolt holes, normally apply the liquid gasket inside
the holes. If specified in the procedure, it should also be
applied outside the holes.
• Within five minutes of liquid gasket application, install the mat-
ing component.
• If the liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.
• Do not retighten after the installation.
• Wait 30 minutes or more after installation before refilling the engine with engine oil and engine coolant.
CAUTION:
If there are specific instructions in this manual, observe them.

OIL LEVEL
• Before starting the engine make sure the vehicle is parked on a flatand level surface, then check the oil level. If the engine is already
running, turn it off and allow 10 minutes before checking.
• Check that the oil level is within the low (L) and high (H) range as indicated on the dipstick.
• If the engine oil level is out of range, add oil as necessary. Refer to
MA-12, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
OIL APPEARANCE
• Check the engine oil for a white milky appearance or excessive contamination.
• If the engine oil is milky, it is highly probable that it is contaminated with engine coolant. Repair the broken
parts.
OIL LEAKAGE
Check for oil leakage around the following areas:
•Oil pan
• Oil pan drain plug
• Oil pressure switch
• Oil filter
• Oil cooler
• Intake valve timing control cover
• Intake valve timing control solenoid valve
• Front cover
• Mating surface between cylinder block and cylinder head
• Mating surface between cylinder head and rocker cover
• Crankshaft oil seal (front and rear)
OIL PRESSURE CHECK
WARNING:
• Be careful not to burn yoursel f, as engine oil may be hot.
• Put the selector lever in the Park “P” position.
1. Check the engine oil level. Refer to LU-8, "
Inspection".
2. Remove engine front undercover using power tool.
3. Disconnect the oil pressure switch harness connector.
4. Remove the oil pressure switch (A).

°C (175 °F)]
Unit: kPa (kg/cm2, psi)
CAUTION:
If the difference is extreme, check the oil passages and oil pump for leaks and blockages.
8. After the inspections, install oil pressure switch as follows:
a. Remove old liquid gasket adhering to oil pressure switch and engine.
b. Apply liquid gasket and tighten oil pressure switch to the specification. Use Genuine RTV Silicone Seal ant or equivalent. Refer to GI-15, "
Recommended Chemical Prod-
ucts and Sealants".
c. After warming up engine, make sure there is no leakage of engine oil with engine running.
Changing Engine OilINFOID:0000000001538845
WARNING:
• Be careful not to burn yourself, as the engine oil is hot.
• Prolonged and repeated contact with used engine oil may cause skin cancer. Try to avoid direct skin contact with used
engine oil. If skin contact is made, wash thoroughly with soap
or hand cleaner as soon as possible.
1. Remove engine front undercover using power tool.
2. Warm up engine, and check for oil leakage from engine compo- nents. Refer to LU-8, "
Inspection".
3. Stop engine and wait for 10 minutes.
4. Loosen oil filler cap, then remove drain plug.
5. Drain engine oil.
6. Install drain plug with new washer. CAUTION:
• Be sure to clean drain plug and install with new washer.
7. Refill with new engine oil. Refer to MA-12, "
