D — Extensive idling
E — Driving in extremely adverse weather conditions or in areas where ambient temperatures are either
extremely low or extremely high
F — Driving in high humidity areas or in mountainous areas
G — Driving in areas using salt or other corrosive materials
H — Driving on rough and/or muddy roads or in the desert
I — Driving with frequent use of braking or in mountainous areas

Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR
BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
NJBR0139The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER” used along with
a seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain types of
collision. The SRS system composition which is available to NISSAN MODEL N16 is as follows (The compo-
sition varies according to the destination and optional equipment.):
For a frontal collision
The Supplemental Restraint System consists of driver air bag module (located in the center of the steer-
ing wheel), front passenger air bag module (located on the instrument panel on passenger side), front seat
belt pre-tensioners, a diagnosis sensor unit, warning lamp, wiring harness and spiral cable.
For a side collision
The Supplemental Restraint System consists of front side air bag module (located in the outer side of front
seat), side air bag (satellite) sensor, diagnosis sensor unit (one of components of air bags for a frontal
collision), wiring harness, warning lamp (one of components of air bags for a frontal collision).
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in theRS sectionof this Service Manual.
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 should be per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN 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 removalofSpiralCableandAir
Bag Module, see the RS 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 or/and orange harness connec-
tor.
SBR686C
Precautions for Brake SystemNJBR0002Recommended fluid is brake fluid “DOT 4”.
Never reuse drained brake fluid.
Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas.
To clean or wash all parts of master cylinder, disc brake
caliper and wheel cylinder, use clean brake fluid.
Never use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene. They
will ruin rubber parts of the hydraulic system.
Use flare nut wrench when removing and installing brake
tube.
Always torque brake lines when installing.
Burnish the brake contact surfaces after refinishing or
replacing drums or rotors, after replacing pads or linings,
or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage.
Refer to “Brake Burnishing Procedure”, “ON-VEHICLE
SERVICE”, BR-7.
WARNING:
Clean brake pads and shoes with a waste cloth, then wipe
with a dust collector.

Precautions When Working On ABSNJBR0140Use recommended tyres in combination with ABS.
Please fit tyres or studded tyres, etc. with the same size.
If different sizes of tyres, or tyres other than the ones rec-
ommended for use with the ABS, are fitted, stopping dis-
tance will increase and control and stability could deterio-
rate.
When changing brake pads, please use Nissan genuine
parts.
When fitting radios etc, do not position the radio itself,
antenna, or antenna cables within an area of about 100
mm (3.94 in) of the control unit.
When doing any work that requires electro-welding, first
remove the control unit.
Please take care when taking a power supply for the
audio, lamps etc., not to take this from any ABS-related
harness. (Please refer to the electrical wiring diagrams for
ABS-related harnesses)
Wiring Diagrams and Trouble DiagnosisNJBR0003When you read wiring diagrams, refer to the following:
GI-12, “HOW TO READ WIRING DIAGRAMS”
EL-12, “POWER SUPPLY ROUTING”
When you perform trouble diagnosis, refer to the following:
GI-33, “HOW TO FOLLOW TEST GROUPS IN TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS”
GI-22, “HOW TO PERFORM EFFICIENT DIAGNOSIS FOR AN ELECTRICAL INCIDENT”
On board self-diagnosis is available everywhere except for Europe.
