Precautions Necessary for Steering Wheel Rotation After Battery Disconnect

AAS000X5

NOTE:

●

This Procedure is applied only to models with Intelligent Key system and NVIS/IVIS (NISSAN/INFINITI
VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM - NATS).

●

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 NVIS/IVIS, an electrically controlled steering lock
mechanism 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

Connect both battery cables.

NOTE:
Supply power using jumper cables if battery is discharged.

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.

Disconnect both battery cables. The steering lock will remain released and the steering wheel can be
rotated.

Perform the necessary repair operation.

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.)

Perform a self-diagnosis check of all control units using CONSULT-II.

Precautions for Procedures without Cowl Top Cover

AAS000X6

When performing the procedure after removing cowl top cover, cover
the lower end of windshield with urethane, etc.

General Precautions

AAS000CJ

●

Do not operate the engine for an extended period of time without
proper exhaust ventilation.
Keep the work area well ventilated and free of any inflammable
materials. Special care should be taken when handling any
inflammable or poisonous materials, such as gasoline, refriger-
ant gas, etc. When working in a pit or other enclosed area, be
sure to properly ventilate the area before working with hazard-
ous materials.
Do not smoke while working on the vehicle.

●

Before jacking up the vehicle, apply wheel chocks or other tire
blocks to the wheels to prevent the vehicle from moving. After
jacking up the vehicle, support the vehicle weight with safety
stands at the points designated for proper lifting before working
on the vehicle.
These operations should be done on a level surface.

●

When removing a heavy component such as the engine or tran-
saxle/transmission, be careful not to lose your balance and drop
them. Also, do not allow them to strike adjacent parts, especially
the brake tubes and master cylinder.

●

Before starting repairs which do not require battery power:
Turn off ignition switch.
Disconnect the negative battery terminal.

●

If the battery terminals are disconnected, recorded memory of
radio and each control unit is erased.

●

To prevent serious burns:
Avoid contact with hot metal parts.
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot.

●

Dispose of drained oil or the solvent used for cleaning parts in
an appropriate manner.

●

Do not attempt to top off the fuel tank after the fuel pump nozzle
shuts off automatically.
Continued refueling may cause fuel overflow, resulting in fuel
spray and possibly a fire.

●

Clean all disassembled parts in the designated liquid or solvent
prior to inspection or assembly.

●

Replace oil seals, gaskets, packings, O-rings, locking washers, cotter pins, self-locking nuts, etc. with new
ones.

●

Replace inner and outer races of tapered roller bearings and needle bearings as a set.

●

Arrange the disassembled parts in accordance with their assembled locations and sequence.

●

Do not touch the terminals of electrical components which use microcomputers (such as ECM).
Static electricity may damage internal electronic components.

●

After disconnecting vacuum or air hoses, attach a tag to indicate the proper connection.

●

Use only the fluids and lubricants specified in this manual.

●

Use approved bonding agent, sealants or their equivalents when required.

●

Use hand tools, power tools (disassembly only) and recom-
mended special tools where specified for safe and efficient ser-
vice repairs.

●

When repairing the fuel, oil, water, vacuum or exhaust systems,
check all affected lines for leaks.

PRECAUTIONS

Revision: 2005 August

2005 Murano

●

Before servicing the vehicle:
Protect fenders, upholstery and carpeting with appropriate cov-
ers.
Take caution that keys, buckles or buttons do not scratch paint.

WARNING:

To prevent ECM from storing the diagnostic trouble codes, do not carelessly disconnect the harness
connectors which are related to the engine control system and TCM (transmission control module)
system. The connectors should be disconnected only when working according to the WORK FLOW of
TROUBLE DIAGNOSES in EC and AT sections.

Precautions for Three Way Catalyst

AAS000CK

If a large amount of unburned fuel flows into the catalyst, the catalyst temperature will be excessively high. To
prevent this, follow the instructions.

●

Use unleaded gasoline only. Leaded gasoline will seriously damage the three way catalyst.

●

When checking for ignition spark or measuring engine compression, make tests quickly and only when
necessary.

●

Do not run engine when the fuel tank level is low, otherwise the engine may misfire, causing damage to
the catalyst.

Do not place the vehicle on flammable material. Keep flammable material off the exhaust pipe and the three
way catalyst.

Precautions for Fuel (Unleaded Premium Gasoline Recommended)

AAS000DK

Use unleaded regular gasoline with an octane rating of at least 87 AKI (Anti-Knock Index) number (Research
octane number 91).

For improved vehicle performance, NISSAN/INFINITI recommend the use of unleaded premium gasoline with
an octane rating of at least 91 AKI number (Research octane number 96).

CAUTION:

Do not use leaded gasoline. Using leaded gasoline will damage the three way catalyst. Do not use E-85
fuel (85% fuel ethanol, 15% unleaded gasoline) unless the vehicle is specifically designed for E-85 fuel
(i.e. Flexible Fuel Vehicle - FFV models). Using a fuel other than that specified could adversely affect
the emission control devices and systems, and could also affect the warranty coverage validity.

Precautions for Multiport Fuel Injection System or Engine Control System

AAS000CM

●

Before connecting or disconnecting any harness connector for
the multiport fuel injection system or ECM:
Turn ignition switch to “OFF” position.
Disconnect negative battery terminal.
Otherwise, there may be damage to ECM.

●

Before disconnecting pressurized fuel line from fuel pump to
injectors, be sure to release fuel pressure.

●

Be careful not to jar components such as ECM and mass air
flow sensor.

Precautions for Hoses

AAS000CO

HOSE REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION

●

To prevent damage to rubber hose, do not pry off rubber hose
with tapered tool or screwdriver.

●

To reinstall the rubber hose securely, make sure that hose inser-
tion length and orientation is correct. (If tube is equipped with
hose stopper, insert rubber hose into tube until it butts up
against hose stopper.)

HOSE CLAMPING

●

If old rubber hose is re-used, install hose clamp in its original
position (at the indentation where the old clamp was). If there is
a trace of tube bulging left on the old rubber hose, align rubber
hose at that position.

●

Discard old clamps; replace with new ones.

●

After installing plate clamps, apply force to them in the direction
of the arrow, tightening rubber hose equally all around.

Precautions for Engine Oils

AAS000CP

Prolonged and repeated contact with used engine oil may cause skin cancer. Try to avoid direct skin contact
with used oil.
If skin contact is made, wash thoroughly with soap or hand cleaner as soon as possible.

●

If skin disorders develop, obtain medical advice without delay.

●

Where practical, degrease components prior to handling.

●

Where there is a risk of eye contact, eye protection should be worn, for example, chemical goggles or face
shields; in addition an eye wash facility should be provided.

ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION PRECAUTIONS

Dispose of used oil and used oil filters through authorized waste disposal contractors to licensed waste dis-
posal sites, or to the waste oil reclamation trade. If in doubt, contact the local authority for advice on disposal
facilities.
It is illegal to pour used oil on to the ground, down sewers or drains, or into water sources.
The regulations concerning pollution vary between regions.

Precautions for Air Conditioning
