PRECAUTIONS
Revision: 2006 November2007 350Z
PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
NJS000D2
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 severity 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 and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
WARNING:

To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, 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 per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.

Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to per-
sonal injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air
Bag Module, see the SRS section.

Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or
harness connectors.
Precautions for Battery ServiceNJS000D3
Before disconnecting the battery, lower both the driver and passenger windows. This will prevent any interfer-
ence between the window edge and the vehicle when the door is opened/closed. During normal operation, the
window slightly raises and lowers automatically to prevent any window to vehicle interference. The automatic
window function will not work with the battery disconnected.
Precautions for Procedures without Cowl Top CoverNJS000CP
When performing the procedure after removing cowl top cover, cover
the lower end of windshield with urethane, etc.

HFC-134a (R-134a) Service Tools and EquipmentNJS0000C
Never mix HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant and/or its specified lubricant with CFC-12 (R-12) refrigerant and/or
its lubricant.
Separate and non-interchangeable service equipment must be used for handling each type of refrigerant/lubri-
cant.
Refrigerant container fittings, service hose fittings and service equipment fittings (equipment which handles
refrigerant and/or lubricant) are different between CFC-12 (R-12) and HFC-134a (R-134a). This is to avoid
mixed use of the refrigerants/lubricant.
Never use adapters that convert one size fitting to another: refrigerant/lubricant contamination occurs and
compressor malfunction may result.

FUNCTION CONFIRMATION PROCEDURE
1. SET IN SELF-DIAGNOSIS MODE (STEP-1 TO 4)
1. Set the fan control dial to OFF position.
2. Turn ignition switch ON.
3. Set in self-diagnosis mode as follows. Within 10 seconds after starting engine (ignition switch is turned
ON.), press A/C switch for at least 5 seconds.
NOTE:
If battery voltage drops below 12 V during diagnosis STEP-3, door motor speed becomes slower and as a
result, the system may generate an error even when operation is normal. To avoid this, start engine before
performing this diagnosis.
>> GO TO 2.
2. STEP-1: LEDS ARE CHECKED
Check intake and A/C switch LEDs illumination.
OK >> GO TO 3.
NG >> Refer to AT C - 9 1 , "
Self-diagnosis" .
3. CHECK TO ADVANCE SELF-DIAGNOSIS STEP-2
1. Turn fan control dial to AUTO position.
NOTE:
When switched to STEP-2, LED of REC position blinks for
approximately 25 seconds.
2. Check A/C switch LED illumination.
Advance to self
-diagnosis STEP-2?
YES >> GO TO 4.
NO >> Replace A/C controller. (Fan control dial is malfunction-
ing.)
4. CHECK TO RETURN SELF-DIAGNOSIS STEP-1
Turn fan control dial to OFF position.
Return to self
-diagnosis STEP-1?
YES >> GO TO 5.
NO >> Replace A/C controller. (Fan control dial is malfunctioning.)

AUXILIARY MECHANISM: TEMPERATURE SETTING TRIMMER
The trimmer compensates for differences in range of ±3°C (±6°F) between temperature setting (temperature
control dial position) and temperature felt by customer.
Operating procedures for this trimmer are as follows:
1. Set fan control dial to OFF.
2. Turn ignition switch ON.
3. Set in self-diagnosis mode as follows. Within 10 seconds after starting engine (ignition switch is turned
ON.), press intake switch for at least 5 seconds.
4. When intake switch is pressed, temperature shifts in following order: 0°C (0°F)→ 1°C (2°F)→ 2°C (4°F)→
3°C (6°F)→ −3°C (−6°F)→ −2°C (−4°F)→ −1°C (−2°F)→ return to 0°C (0°F).
When battery cable is disconnected or battery voltage is below 9 V, trimmer operation is canceled. Tempera-
ture set becomes that of initial condition, i.e. 0°C (0°F).
