Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000006228174
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 whether 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 inoper ative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in
the event of a collision that would result in air ba g 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 “SRS AIR BAG”.
 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 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 minutes before performing any service.
Precaution Necessary for Steering Wh eel Rotation after Battery Disconnect
INFOID:0000000006228175
NOTE:
 Before removing and installing any control units, first tu rn the push-button ignition switch to the LOCK posi-
tion, then disconnect both 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 batte ry 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 wil l remain released with both battery cables discon-
nected and the steering wheel can be turned.
4. Perform the necessary repair operation.

PRECAUTIONS
5. When the repair work is completed, re-connect bot
h 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 igniti on switch is turned to LOCK position.)
6. Perform self-diagnosis check of all control units using CONSULT-III.
Precaution for Procedure without Cowl Top CoverINFOID:0000000006228176
When performing the procedure after removing cowl top cover, cover
the lower end of windshield with urethane, etc.
Precaution for Brake SystemINFOID:0000000006222556
WARNING:
Clean any dust from the front brake and rear brake using a vacuum dust collector. Never blow by com-
pressed air.
 Brake fluid use refer to MA-10, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
 Never reuse drained brake fluid.
 Never spill or splash brake fluid on painted surfaces. Brake fluid may seriously damage paint. Wipe it off
immediately and wash with water if it gets on a painted surface.
 Always confirm the specified tightening torque when installing the brake pipes.
 After pressing the brake pedal more deeply or harder t han normal driving, such as air bleeding, check each
item of brake pedal. Adjust brake pedal if it is outside the standard value.
 Never use mineral oils such as gasoline or light oil to clean. They may damage rubber parts and cause
improper operation.
 Always loosen the brake tube flar e nut with a flare nut wrench.
 Tighten the brake tube flare nut to the specified torque with a crow-
foot (A) and torque wrench (B).
 Always connect the battery terminal when moving the vehicle.
 Turn the ignition switch OFF and disconnect the ABS actuator and
electric unit (control unit) harness connector or the battery negative
terminal before performing the work.
 Check that no brake fluid leakage is present after replacing the parts.
Precaution for Brak e Control SystemINFOID:0000000006222557
 Slight vibrations are felt on the brake pedal and the operation noises occur, when VDC function, TCS func-
tion, ABS function, EBD function, hill start assist function or brake limited slip differential (BLSD) function
operates. This is not a malfunction because it is caus ed by VDC function, TCS function, ABS function, EBD
function, hill start assist function or brake limited sl ip differential (BLSD) function that is normally operated.
 When starting engine or when starting vehicle just after starting engine, brake pedal may vibrate or motor
operating noise may be heard from engine compartment. This is normal condition.
 Brake stopping distance may become longer than models without ABS function depending on the road con-
ditions, when ABS function is operated on slippery r oad like rough road, gravel road or snowy road.
 When a malfunction is indicated, always collect info rmation from the customer about conditions of occur-
rence, estimate cause and perform operation. Check brake booster operation, brake fluid level and brake
fluid leakage, as well as electrical system.
 The optimum performance is achieved by control for V DC function, TCS function, ABS function, EBD func-
tion, hill start assist function or brake limited slip di fferential (BLSD) function when all of brakes, suspensions

ABS FUNCTION : System DescriptionINFOID:0000000006222574
 By preventing wheel lock through brake force (brake flui d pressure) control that is electronically controlled by
detecting wheel speed during braking, stability during em ergency braking is improved so that obstacles can
be easily bypassed by steering operation.
 During braking, control units calculates wheel speed and pseudo-vehicle speed, and transmits pressure
increase, hold or decrease signals to actuator portion according to wheel slip status.
 The following effects are obtained by preventing wheel lock during
braking.
- Vehicle tail slip is prevented during braking when driving straight.
- Understeer and oversteer tendencie s are moderated during brak-
ing driving on a corner.
- Obstacles may be easily bypassed by steering operation during braking.
 Slight vibrations are felt on the brake pedal and the operation noises occur, when ABS function oper ates. This is not a malfunc-
tion because it is caused by ABS function that is normally oper-
ated.
 CONSULT-III can be used to diagnose the system diagnosis.
 Fail-safe function is adopted. When a malfunction occurs in ABS function, the control is suspended for VDC function, TCS function,
hill start assist function and brake limited slip differential (BLSD)
function. The vehicle status becomes the same as models without
VDC function, TCS function, ABS func tion, hill start assist function
and brake limited slip differential (BLSD) function. However, EBD
function is operated normally. Refer to BRC-25, "
Fail-safe".
NOTE:
 ABS has the characteristic as described here, but it is not the device that helps reckless driving.
 To stop vehicle efficiently, ABS does not operate and ordinary brake operates at low speed [approx. 5 to 10 km/h (3.1 to 6.2
MPH) or less, but differs subject to road conditions).
 Self-diagnosis is performed immediately after when engine starts and when vehicle initially is driven [by vehi-
cle speed approx. 15 km/h (9.3 MPH)]. Motor sounds are generated during self-diagnosis. In addition, brake
pedal may be felt heavy when depressing brake pedal lightly. These symptoms are not malfunctions.
