PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000001534592
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. Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SR and SB section of
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 must be performed by
an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
 Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal
injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the SR 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 har-
ness connectors.
Precaution Necessary for Steering Wheel Rotation After Battery Disconnect
INFOID:0000000001534593
NOTE:
 This Procedure is applied only to models with Intelligent Key system and NATS (NISSAN ANTI-THEFT SYS-
TEM).
 Remove and install all control units after disconnecting both battery cables with the ignition knob in the
″LOCK″ position.
 Always use CONSULT-II to perform self-diagnosis as a part of each function inspection after finishing work.
If DTC is detected, perform trouble diagnosis according to self-diagnostic results.
For models equipped with the Intelligent Key system and NATS, an electrically controlled steering lock mech-
anism is adopted on the key cylinder.
For this reason, if the battery is disconnected or if the battery is discharged, the steering wheel will lock and
steering wheel rotation will become impossible.
If steering wheel rotation is required when battery power is interrupted, follow the procedure below before
starting the repair operation.
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Connect both battery cables.
NOTE:
Supply power using jumper cables if battery is discharged.
2. Use the Intelligent Key or mechanical key to turn the ignition switch to the ″ACC″ position. At this time, the
steering lock will be released.
3. Disconnect both battery cables. The steering lock will remain released and the steering wheel can be
rotated.
4. Perform the necessary repair operation.
5. When the repair work is completed, return the ignition switch to the ″LOCK″ position before connecting
the battery cables. (At this time, the steering lock mechanism will engage.)
6. Perform a self-diagnosis check of all control units using CONSULT-II.
Precaution for Liquid GasketINFOID:0000000001534594
REMOVAL OF LIQUID GASKET SEALING
 After removing nuts and bolts, separate the mating surface, using Tool and remove old liquid gasket sealing.

CO-56
< PRECAUTION >[K9K]
PRECAUTIONS
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage the mating surfaces.
 Tap Tool to insert it (1), and then slide it by tapping on the side (2)
as shown.
 In areas where Tool is difficult to use, use plastic hammer to lightly
tap the parts, to remove it.
CAUTION:
If for some unavoidable reason suitable tool such as screw-
driver is used, be careful not to damage the mating surfaces.
LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Remove old liquid gasket adhering to the liquid gasket applica-
tion surface and the mating surface, using scraper.
 Remove liquid gasket completely from the groove of the liquid
gasket application surface, bolts, and bolt holes.
2. Thoroughly clean the mating surfaces and remove adhering
moisture, grease and foreign materials.
3. Attach liquid gasket tube to Tool.
Use Genuine RTV Silicone Sealant or equivalent. Refer to GI-27, "
Recommended Chemical Prod-
ucts and Sealants".
4. Apply liquid gasket without breaks to the specified location with the specified dimensions.
 If there is a groove for the liquid gasket application, apply liquid gasket to the groove.
 As for the bolt holes, normally apply liquid gasket inside the
holes. Occasionally, it should be applied outside the holes.
Make sure to read the text of service manual.
 Within five minutes of liquid gasket application, install the mat-
ing component.
 If liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.
 Do not retighten nuts or bolts after the installation.
 After 30 minutes or more have passed from the installation, fill
engine oil and engine coolant.
CAUTION:
If there are specific instructions in this manual, observe them. Tool number : KV10111100 (J-37228)

 Check if the reservoir tank engine coolant level is within the “MIN”
to “MAX” range when engine is cool.
 Adjust the engine coolant level as necessary.
CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAKS
To check for leaks, apply pressure to the cooling system using suit-
able tool.
WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious
burns could occur from high pressure coolant escaping from
the radiator.
CAUTION:
Higher pressure than specified may cause radiator damage.

Put a cloth under the air relief plug to prevent engine coolant from dampening the crankshaft
position sensor.
Pour coolant to the MAX level line of the reservoir tank at
a rate of 2 liter (1-3/4 lamp qt.)/min. or lower.
3. Close the air relief plug.
CAUTION:
If the filling rate is too fast, this could lead to air being
mixed in the coolant. Be sure to fill the coolant slowly
according to the rate indicated above.
Use Insane Genuine Engine Coolant or equivalent mixed
with water (distilled or demineralized). Refer to MA-21,
"Engine Coolant Mixture Ratio".
4. Start engine without closing reservoir tank cap and keep engine racing at 1,500 rpm for about 2-3 minutes.
If necessary, pour engine coolant up to MAX level.
If coolant overflows reservoir tank hole, install filler cap.

WARNING:
 Be careful not to be scaled with hot engine coolant or vacuum pump when operating.
 Radiator fan blade can start at any time and cause personal injuries.
5. Turn off the engine and loosen air relief plug until coolant spills from air relief hole.
6. Close the air relief plug and run the engine at 2,000 rpm until the upper hose becomes hot and radiator
fan operates. Leave the engine running approximately 5 minutes at idle speed and check for sound of
coolant flow while running engine from idle up to 3,000 rpm.
 Sound may be noticeable at heater water cock.
7. If sound is heard, bleed air from cooling system by repeating steps 4 to 6 until coolant level no longer
drops.
 Check the radiator lower hose for any signs of leakage.
8. Turn off the engine and let it cool down.
 Cool down using a fan to reduce the time.
9. After cooling period, loosen the air relief plug and check if coolant spills from the air relief hole. if not,
remove the air relief plug until the coolant spills, and then close the relief air plug. Bleed air from cooling
system by repeating steps 6 to 10 until the coolant spills immediately.
10. Check the engine coolant level when engine is cool and refill to MAX level line if the level is lower.
 Clean excess coolant from engine.
11. Check that the reservoir tank cap is tightened.
