Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000006289699
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.

HANDS-FREE PHONE FUNCTION
AV control unit includes hands-free phone function.
Hands-free communication can be oper ated by connecting using Bluetooth
™ communication with cellular
phone.
Operation is performed by steering switch, and operating condition is indicated on display.
Guide sound that is heard during operation is input fr om AV control unit to BOSE amp., and is output from
front speaker and center speaker.
When A Call Is Originated
Spoken voice sound output from the microphone (microphone signal ) is input to AV control unit. AV control unit
outputs to cellular phone with Bluetooth
™ communication as a TEL voice signal. Voice sound is then heard at
the other party.
When Receiving A Call
Voice sound is input to own cellular phone from the other party. TEL voice signal is output to door speaker, and
the signal is input to BOSE amp. via AV control unit by establishing Bluetooth
™ communication from cellular
phone.
TOUCH PANEL SYSTEM
Each operation of multi AV system can be perfo rmed by directly touching a front display.
AROUND VIEW MONITOR FUNCTION
This system is equipped with wide-angle high-resolution cameras on the front and rear of the vehicle and on
both right and left door mirrors. The images from front view, rear view, front-side view (RH side), and birds-
eye view that shows the view from the top of the vehicle are displayed to monitor the vehicle surroundings.
Around view monitor control unit cuts out and expands the image received from each camera to create each view.
The sonar indicator is displayed on display (superimposed on the camera image) in combination with the
camera assistance sonar system to warm of the approach of an obstacle.
In front view and rear view, the vehicle width, dist ance lines and predictive course lines are superimposed
and displayed. In front-side view, the vehicle distance guiding line and vehicle width guiding line are dis-
played.
The Birds-Eye view converts the images from 4 cameras into the overhead view and displays the status of
the vehicle on display. The vehicle icon and sonar indica tor that are displayed on the Birds-Eye view display
are rendered by around view monitor control unit.
Around View Monitor Screen
Around view monitor combines and displays the travel di rection view and “Birds-Eye view”, “Front-Side view”
and then it displays the sonar indicator on the “Birds -Eye view”, “Front-Side view”, “Rear wide view”.
AV control unit renders the “Change View” switch, view icon, warning message on display.
