Apply an axial load of 490 N (50 kg-f, 111 lb-f) to ball stud
using a dial gauge. Measure amount of stud movement, and
then make sure that the value is within the specified range.
Replace outer socket and inner socket if the measured value
is outside the standard.
ASSEMBLY
1. Apply recommended grease to teeth part and bush part of rack assembly, if necessary.
2. Apply recommended grease to back of rack assembly, if necessary.
3. Install inner socket to rack assembly. Torque to specified value while holding the flat portion of the rack
next to the inner socket using a suitable tool.
4. Apply recommended grease to inner socket. For application points, refer to PS-13, "
COMPONENT (R24K
TYPE)" .
5. Decide on the neutral position for the rack assembly.
6. Apply recommended grease to around retainer (3), then install
retainer (3), spring (4) and adjusting screw (1) to gear housing
assembly (5).
7. Apply recommended thread locking sealant to the thread (2
turns thread), and then screw in the adjusting screw (1) until it
reaches height “H” from gear housing assembly (5) measured
before disassembling.
8. Tighten lock nut to (2) the specified torque securing it to prevent
adjusting screw (1) from freewheeling condition.
9. Move rack assembly 10 strokes throughout the full stroke so that
the parts can fit with each other.
10. Using Tools A and B, measure rotating torque of pinion assem-
bly. If the measurement is outside of the specified range, read-
just pinion rotating torque. If the measurement is outside of the
specified range for readjust, replace steering gear assembly. Outer socket 0.5 mm (0.020 in) or less
Inner socket 0.2 mm (0.008 in) or less

11. Set dial gauge to the back of rack assembly on the pinion
assembly side around the center of stroke. Measure displace-
ment of rack under torsional torque of ± 7.8 N·m (0.80 kg-m, 69
in-lb), and then check if it is within the standard value. If the
measurement is outside the standard value, adjust it again. After
the readjustment, if measurement is still outside the standard
value, replace steering gear assembly.
12. Install boot to gear housing assembly and inner socket.
13. Install boot clamp (1) to boot using Tool.
NOTE:
Install large diameter side boot clamp (1) securely to boot
groove, and crimp it so as to have clearance of 3 mm (0.12 in) or
less as shown.
14. Install joint cover (1) to gear housing assembly (2).
CAUTION:
Install joint cover so that the protrusion for locating is
securely set to gear housing groove.
15. Adjust inner socket to standard length “L”, and then tighten lock
nut to the specified torque. Refer to PS-13, "
COMPONENT
(R24K TYPE)" . Check length of inner socket “L” again after
tightening lock nut. Make sure that the length is the standard.
CAUTION:
Adjust toe-in. Refer to FSU-8, "
TOE-IN INSPECTION" .
Length achieved after toe-in adjustment is not necessarily
the above value.Standard value : Less than 0.1 mm (0.004 in)

PRECAUTIONS
Revision: June 20062007 Versa
PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
EIS0095R
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 SRS and SB section of
this Service Manual.
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.
Precautions EIS0095S

Disconnect both battery cables in advance.

Do not tamper with or force air bag lid open, as this may adversely affect air bag performance.

Be careful not to scratch pad and other parts.

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 them 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.

torque. Tighten remaining bolts, being careful to prevent glass lid from moving.
5. Tilt glass lid up and down several times to check that it moves smoothly, and retains the adjustment.
HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT
1. Tilt up glass lid.
2. Loosen glass lid bolts, then tilt down glass lid.
3. Adjust glass lid from outside of vehicle so it resembles "A-A" "B-B" "C-C" as shown in the figure.

For height adjustment, manually raise/lower glass lid assembly until height difference is within specifi-
cations.
NOTE:

If necessary, shims may be added between sunroof unit
assembly and roof panel to increase glass lid height adjust-
ment range.

To prevent glass lid from moving after adjustment, lightly
tighten the bolts.
4. Tighten left front bolt, then right rear bolt to prevent uneven
torque. Tighten remaining bolts, being careful to prevent glass
lid from moving.
5. Tilt glass lid up and down several times to check that it moves
