Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000004900823
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 severi ty 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 inoper ative, 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 unintentional act ivation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the SR section.
• Do not use electrical test equipm ent on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identi fied 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 Un it or other Airbag System sensors with the Igni-
tion ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or el ectric 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 minutes before performing any service.
Precaution for Rear SuspensionINFOID:0000000001732010
• When installing the rubber bushings, the final tightening must be done under unladen condition and with thetires on level ground. Oil will shorten the life of the rubber bushings, so wipe off any spilled oil immediately.
• 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.

THIRD ROW POWER FOLDING SEAT
FUNCTION DIAGNOSIS
THIRD ROW POWER FOLDING SEAT
System DescriptionINFOID:0000000001735711
The third row power folding seat system is capable of allowing a user to fold up or down either the left or right
third row seat using a set of front or rear mounted switches.
THIRD ROW POWER FOLDIN G SEAT CONTROL UNIT
The third row power folding seat control unit is located in the control
unit/cross beam assembly underneath the LH third row seat. It
receives signals from the third row power folding seat switches, TCM
and the Hall effect switches mounted in the LH and RH seat motors.
The control unit has self-diagnosis capability through chime codes
and may be accessed by turning the ignition switch ON and OFF
three times. The control unit drives the LH and RH seat motors to
fold them up and down.
THIRD ROW POWER FOLDING SEAT SWITCH
The third row power folding seat switches are located in pairs on the
luggage side finisher RH. A switch must be held in order for the seat
to move.
THIRD ROW POWER FOLDING SEAT MOTORS
The third row power folding seat motors are located in the seat
motor/hinge assembly. There are two motors, one for LH and one
for RH seat folding operations. Power and ground are provided to
the motors by the third row power fo lding seat control unit. The con-
trol unit reverses polarity to the motors to raise or lower the seat.
The motors also contain Hall effe ct switches. These switches send
signals back to the control unit which help it determine fully open and
closed positions.
