Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000005855808
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.
Handling for Adhesive and PrimerINFOID:0000000003776363
• Do not use an adhesive which is past its usable date. Shelf life of this product is limited to six months afterthe date of manufacture. Carefully adhere to the ex piration or manufacture date printed on the box.
• Keep primers and adhesive in a cool, dry place. I deally, they should be stored in a refrigerator.
• Open the seal of the primer and adhesive just before application. Discard the remainder.
• Before application, be sure to shake the primer container to stir the contents. If any floating material is found,
do not use it.
• If any primer or adhesive contacts the skin, wipe it off with gasoline or equivalent and wash the skin with
soap.
• When using primer and adhesive, always observe the precautions in the instruction manual.
Precaution Necessary for Steering Wheel Rotation After Battery Disconnect
INFOID:0000000005855987
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 disconnecti ng 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.

1.GET INFORMATION FOR SYMPTOM
Get the detailed information from the customer about the symptom (the condition and the environment when
the incident/malfunction occurred).
>> GO TO 2.
2.CHECK DTC
1. Check DTC.
2. Perform the following procedure if DTC is displayed.
- Record DTC and freeze frame data (Print them out with CONSULT-III.)
- Erase DTC.
- Study the relationship between the cause detected by DTC and the symptom described by the customer.
3. Check related service bulletins for information.
Is any symptom described and any DTC detected?
Symptom is described, DTC is displayed>>GO TO 3.
Symptom is described, DTC is not displayed>>GO TO 4.
Symptom is not described, DTC is displayed>>GO TO 5.
3.CONFIRM THE SYMPTOM
Confirm the symptom described by the customer.
Connect CONSULT-III to the vehicle in “DATA MONI TOR” mode and check real time diagnosis results.
Verify relation between the symptom and t he condition when the symptom is detected.
>> GO TO 5.
4.CONFIRM THE SYMPTOM
Confirm the symptom described by the customer.
Connect CONSULT-III to the vehicle in “DATA MONI TOR” mode and check real time diagnosis results.
Verify relation between the symptom and t he condition when the symptom is detected.
>> GO TO 6.
5.PERFORM DTC CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
Perform DTC Confirmation Procedure for the display ed DTC, and then check that DTC is detected again.
At this time, always connect CONSULT-III to the vehicle, and check diagnostic results in real time.
If two or more DTCs are detected, refer to DLK-169, "
DTCInspectionPriorityChart" and determine trouble
diagnosis order.
NOTE:
• Freeze frame data is useful if the DTC is not detected.
• Perform Component Function Check if DTC Confirmation Procedure is not included in Service Manual. This
simplified check procedure is an effective alternat ive though DTC cannot be detected during this check.
If the result of Component Function Check is NG, it is the same as the detection of DTC by DTC Confirma-
tion Procedure.
Is DTC detected?
Yes >> GO TO 7.
No >> Refer to GI-38, "
Intermittent Incident".
6.DETECT MALFUNCTIONING SYST EM BY SYMPTOM DIAGNOSIS
Detect malfunctioning system according to SYMPTO M DIAGNOSIS based on the confirmed symptom in step
4, and determine the trouble diagnosis order based on possible causes and symptom.
>> GO TO 7.
7.DETECT MALFUNCTIONING PA RT BY DIAGNOSTIC PROCEDURE
Inspect according to Diagnostic Procedure of the system.

BACK DOOR OPENER OPERATION
NOTE:
The automatic back door system must be initialized by fully closing the back door anytime the battery
power is lost to the back door control unit. Refer to DLK-9, "
ADDITIONAL SERVICE WHEN REMOVING
BATTERY NEGATIVE TERMINAL : Description".
The automatic back door system consists of a one piec e unit that combines the back door control unit along
with the back door motor, back door clutch and the ba ck door encoder. The back door latch contains a lock
function that can control the two functions of autom atic back door latch closure and electrical opener with a
single motor when you close the back door to the halfway-state.
• Back door auto closure When the back door is closed to the halfway state (half- latch) position, the motor automatically drives to
rotate the latch lever and pull it in from half latched to full latched.
• Power back door With the back door closed, if you press the power liftgat e switch or press the keyfob button, or pull the back
door handle with the back door unlocked, the back door latch motor drives the open the locking plate and
releases the latch. The back door motor t hen raises the door to the full open position.
With the back door fully open, if you press the power liftgate switch, keyfob button or the back door close
switch, the back door motor closes the door to the half-latch state. The back door latch motor then drives the
latch to the full close position.
At the onset of each power open or power close applic ation, the hazard lamps will flash 3 times and the
warning chime will sound 3 dings lasting a total of 2 seconds.
OUTSIDE KEY ANTENNA DETECTION AREA
The outside key antenna detection area of back door open function
is in the range of approximately 80 cm (31.50 in) surrounding back
door opener request switch (1). However, this operating range
depends on the ambient conditions.
