Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000001830414
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 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 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 har-
ness connectors.

• Be sure to use genuine NISSAN exhaust system parts or equivalents which are specially designed
for heat resistance, corrosion resistance and shape.
• Perform the operation with the exhaust system fully cooled down because the system will be hot
just after the engine stops.
• Be careful not to cut your hand on heat insulator edge.
1. Disconnect harness connector of heated oxygen sensor 2.
• Using Tool, remove heated oxygen sensor 2.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage heated oxygen sensor 2.
a.2. Disconnect each joint and mounting rubber.
INSTALLATION
Installation is in the reverse order of removal.
CAUTION:
• Always replace exhaust gaskets and seal bearings with new ones when installing.
• Discard any heated oxygen sensor 2 which has been dropped from a height of more than 0.5 m (19.7
in) onto a hard surface such as a concrete floor; use a new one.
• Before installing a new heated oxygen sensor 2, clean exhaust system threads using the heated oxy-
gen sensor thread cleaner and apply anti-seize lubricant (commercial service tool).
• Do not over tighten heated oxygen sensor 2. Doing so may cause damage to the heated oxygen sen-
sor 2, resulting in the “MIL” coming on.
• Remove deposits from the sealing surface of each connection. Connect them securely to avoid
exhaust leakage.
• Temporarily tighten nuts on the exhaust manifold side and bolts on the vehicle side. Check each part
for unusual interference, and then tighten them to the specified torque.
• When installing each mounting rubber, avoid twisting or unusual extension in up/down and right/left
directions.
Exhaust Manifold to Exhaust Front Tube
1. Securely insert seal bearing (2) into exhaust manifold (1) side in
the direction shown.
• Exhaust front tube (5)
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage seal bearing surface when install-
ing.
2. Install spring (3), tighten nut (4).
• Be careful that the stud bolt nut does not interfere with the
flanged area ( ).
• Make sure the spring (3) sits properly on the flange surface by
aligning it to the locator dimples.
Exhaust Front Tube to Center Muffler
1. Securely insert seal bearing (2) into exhaust front tube (1) side
in the direction shown.
• Center muffler (5)
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage seal bearing surface when install-
ing.
2. With spring (3), tighten bolt (4).
• Be careful that the stud bolt does not interfere with the flanged
area ( ).
• Make sure the spring (3) sits properly on the flange surface by
aligning it to the locator dimples.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
• With the engine running, check exhaust tube joints for exhaust leakage and unusual noise.
• Check to ensure that brackets and mounting rubbers are installed properly and free from undue stress.
Improper installation could result in excessive noise and vibration.Tool number : KV10114400 (J-38365)

PRECAUTIONS
CautionINFOID:0000000001703697
Observe the following precautions when disassembling and assembling drive shaft.
• Joint sub-assembly does not disassemble because it is non-overhaul parts.
• Perform work in a location which is as dust-free as possible.
• Before disassembling and assembling, clean the outside of parts.
• Prevention of the entry of foreign objects must be taken into account during disassembly of the service loca-
tion.
• Disassembled parts must be carefully reassembled in the correct order. If work is interrupted, a clean cover
must be placed over parts.
• Paper shop cloths must be used. Fabric shop cloths must not be used because of danger of lint adhering to
parts.
• Disassembled parts (except for rubber parts) should be cleaned with kerosene which shall be removed by
blowing with air or wiping with paper shop cloths.
