PRECAUTIONS
Revision: June 20062007 Versa
SERVICE COUPLERS
Never attempt to connect HFC-134a (R-134a) service couplers to a
CFC-12 (R-12) A/C system. The HFC-134a (R-134a) couplers will
not properly connect to the CFC-12 (R-12) system. However, if an
improper connection is attempted, discharging and contamination
may occur.
REFRIGERANT WEIGHT SCALE
Verify that no refrigerant other than HFC-134a (R-134a) and speci-
fied oils have been used with the scale. If the scale controls refriger-
ant flow electronically, the hose fitting must be 1/2″-16 ACME.
CHARGING CYLINDER
Using a charging cylinder is not recommended. Refrigerant may be vented into air from cylinder’s top valve
when filling the cylinder with refrigerant. Also, the accuracy of the cylinder is generally less than that of an
electronic scale or of quality recycle/recharge equipment.
Precautions for Leak Detection DyeEJS00572

The A/C system contains a fluorescent leak detection dye used for locating refrigerant leaks. An ultraviolet
(UV) lamp is required to illuminate the dye when inspecting for leaks.

Always wear fluorescence enhancing UV safety goggles to protect your eyes and enhance the visibility of
the fluorescent dye.

The fluorescent dye leak detector is not a replacement for an electronic refrigerant leak detector. The fluo-
rescent dye leak detector should be used in conjunction with an electronic refrigerant leak detector to pin-
point refrigerant leaks.

For your safety and your customer’s satisfaction, read and follow all manufacture’s operating instructions
and precautions prior to performing the work.

A compressor shaft seal should not be repaired because of dye seepage. The compressor shaft seal
should only be repaired after confirming the leak with an electronic refrigerant leak detector.

Always remove any remaining dye from the leak area after repairs are complete to avoid a misdiagnosis
during a future service.

Do not allow dye to come into contact with painted body panels or interior components. If dye is spilled,
clean immediately with the approved dye cleaner. Fluorescent dye left on a surface for an extended period
of time cannot be removed.

Do not spray the fluorescent dye cleaning agent on hot surfaces (engine exhaust manifold, etc.).

Do not use more than one refrigerant dye bottle (1/4 ounce /7.4 cc) per A/C system.

Leak detection dyes for HFC-134a (R-134a) and CFC-12 (R-12) A/C systems are different. Do not use
HFC-134a (R-134a) leak detection dye in CFC-12 (R-12) A/C system or CFC-12 (R-12) leak detector dye
in HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C system or A/C system damage may result.

The fluorescent properties of the dye will remain for over three (3) years unless a compressor malfunction
occurs.
IDENTIFICATION LABEL FOR VEHICLE
Vehicles with factory installed fluorescent dye have this identification label on the front side of hood.

PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
EIS0097B
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.
WAR NIN G:

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.

Service NoticeEIS0097C

When removing or installing various parts, place a cloth or padding onto the vehicle body to prevent
scratches.

Handle trim, molding instruments, grille, etc. carefully during removing or installing. Be careful not to oil or
damage them.

Apply sealing compound where necessary when installing parts.

When applying sealing compound, be careful that the sealing compound does not protrude from parts.

When replacing any metal parts (for example body outer panel, member, etc.), be sure to take rust pre-
vention measures.
Precautions EIS0097D

When removing or disassembling any part, be careful not to damage or deform it. Protect parts which may
get in the way with cloth.

When removing parts with a screwdriver or other tool, protect parts by wrapping tools with vinyl or tape.

Keep removed parts protected with cloth.

If a clip is deformed or damaged, replace it.

If an unreusable part is removed, replace it with a new one.

Tighten bolts and nuts firmly to the specified torque.

After re-assembly has been completed, make sure each part functions correctly.

Remove stains in the following way.
Water-soluble stains:
Dip a soft cloth in warm water, and then squeeze it tightly. After wiping the stain, wipe with a soft dry cloth.
Oil stain:
Dissolve a synthetic detergent in warm water (density of 2 to 3% or less), dip the cloth, then clean off the stain
with the cloth. Next, dip the cloth in fresh water and squeeze it tightly. Then clean off the detergent completely.
Then wipe the area with a soft dry cloth.

Do not use any organic solvent, such as thinner or benzine.
