Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000006369606
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 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 “SRS AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT” of this
Service Manual.
WARNING:
• To avoid rendering the SRS inopera tive, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in
the event of a collision that would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be performed by
an authorized NISS AN/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 “SRS AIR BAG”.
 Do not use electrical test equipmen t 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 Air Bag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Air Bag System sensors with the ignition ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electric 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:0000000006369607
NOTE:
 Before removing and installing any control units, first tu rn the push-button ignition switch to the LOCK posi-
tion, then disconnect bot h battery cables.
 After finishing work, confirm that all control unit connectors are connected properly, then re-connect both
battery cables.
 Always use CONSULT-III to perform self-diagnosis as a part of each function inspection after finishing work.
If a DTC is detected, perform trouble diagnos is according to self-diagnosis results.
For vehicle with steering lock unit, if the battery is disconnected or discharged, the steering wheel will lock and
cannot be turned.
If turning the steering wheel is required with the bat tery disconnected or discharged, follow the operation pro-
cedure below before starting the repair operation.
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Connect both battery cables. NOTE:
Supply power using jumper cables if battery is discharged.
2. Turn the push-button ignition switch to ACC position. (At this time, the steering lock will be released.)
3. Disconnect both battery cables. The steering lock wi ll remain released with both battery cables discon-
nected and the steering wheel can be turned.
4. Perform the necessary repair operation.

5. When the repair work is completed, re-connect both battery cables. With the brake pedal released, turn
the push-button ignition switch from ACC position to ON position, then to LOCK position. (The steering
wheel will lock when the push-button ignition switch is turned to LOCK position.)
6. Perform self-diagnosis check of a ll control units using CONSULT-III.
Precaution for Seat Belt ServiceINFOID:0000000006217608
CAUTION:
 Before removing the front seat belt pre-tensioner assembly, turn the ignition switch off, disconnect
battery negative terminal and wait at least 3 minutes.
 Never use electrical test equipment for front seat belt pre-tensioner connector.
 After replacing or reinstalling front seat belt pre-tensioner assembly, or reconnecting front seat belt
pre-tensioner connector, check th e system function. Refer to SRC-14, "
Description".
 Never use disassembled buckle or seat belt assembly.
 Replace anchor bolts if th ey are deformed or worn out.
 Never oil tongue and buckle.
 If any component of seat belt assembly is questiona ble, do not repair. Replace the entire seat belt
assembly.
 If webbing is cut, frayed or damaged, replace seat belt assembly.
 When replacing seat belt assembly, u se a genuine NISSAN seat belt assembly.
AFTER A COLLISION
WARNING:
Inspect all seat belt assemblies including retractors and attached hardware after any collision.
NISSAN recommends that all seat belt assemblies in u se during a collision be replaced unless the col-
lision was minor and the belts show no damage a nd continue to operate properly. Failure to do so
could result in serious personal injury in an accide nt. Seat belt assemblies not in use during a colli-
sion should also be replaced if either damage or im proper operation is noted. Seat belt pre-tensioners
should be replaced even if the seat belts are not in use during a frontal collision in which the air bags
are deployed.
Replace any seat belt assembly (including anchor bolts) if:
 The seat belt was in use at the time of a collision (except for minor collisions and the belts, retractors and
buckles show no damage and continue to operate properly).
 The seat belt was damaged in an accident (i.e. torn webbing, bent retractor or guide).
 The seat belt attaching point was damaged in an accident. Inspect the seat belt attaching area for damage or distortion and repair as necessary before installing a new seat belt assembly.
 Anchor bolts are deformed or worn out.
 The front seat belt pre-tensioner should be replaced even if the seat belts are not in use during the collision
in which the air bags are deployed.

PRE-CRASH SEAT BELT SYSTEM : System DiagramINFOID:0000000006237877
PRE-CRASH SEAT BELT SYSTEM : System DescriptionINFOID:0000000006237878
 Pre-crash seat belt system integrates control unit and motor in driver and passenger seat belt retractors.
 Provides a sense of ease when pre-crash seat belt c ontrol unit judges the emergency braking operation, the
intelligent brake assistance operating status, the c ontinuous ABS operating status, the emergency steering
wheel operation, the excessive vehicle inclination stat us, or the lateral slippage status during cornering.
The motor immediately retracts the seat belt and suppresses change in occupant posture.
 Even in a situation where a collision is unavoidable, effe cts of other safety devices, like the air bag, are max-
imized and damages are reduced.
 Motor retracts seat belt when unfastening and extrac ts seat belt when fastening to reduce the feeling of
pressure. (comfort function)
FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
Pre-crash seat belt system operat es under the following conditions.
 During emergency brake operation
 When ABS continuously operates
 When intelligent brake assistance operates
 When lateral slippage during cornering occurs
 When steering wheel is rotated for emergency
