Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT 
PRE-TENSIONER"

INFOID:0000000005531980

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 SR 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 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.

PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING POWER TOOLS (AIR OR ELECTRIC) AND HAMMERS

WARNING:

• When working near the Airbag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Airbag System sensors with the Igni-

tion ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electric power tools or strike near the sensor(s) with a

hammer. Heavy vibration could activate the sensor(s) and deploy the air bag(s), possibly causing

serious injury.

• When using air or electric power tools or hammers, always switch the Ignition OFF, disconnect the

battery, and wait at least 3 minutes before performing any service.

Precaution Necessary for Steering Wheel Rotation After Battery Disconnect

INFOID:0000000005260541

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-III 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-III.

Removal and Installation

INFOID:0000000005260546

WARNING:

• Perform the operation with the exhaust system fully cooled. The system will be hot just after the

engine stops. 

• Be careful not to cut your hand on the heat insulator edge.

CAUTION:

• Be sure to use genuine exhaust system parts or equivalents which are specially designed for heat

resistance, corrosion resistance, and shape.

REMOVAL

Remove exhaust system components using power tool.

• Remove heated oxygen sensor using Tool as needed.

INSTALLATION

Installation is in the reverse order of removal.

CAUTION:

• Always replace exhaust gaskets with new ones when reassembling.

• Before installing a new heated oxygen sensor, clean and lube the exhaust tube threads using suit-

able tool.

EXHAUST SYSTEM

• Discard any heated oxygen sensor 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; install a new one.

• Do not over-tighten the heated oxygen sensor. Doing so may damage the heated oxygen sensor,

resulting in the MIL coming on.

• If any mounting insulator is badly deformed, repair or replace it. If deposits such as mud pile up on

the mounting insulators, clean and inspect them.

• Temporarily tighten the nuts on the exhaust manifold side and the bolts on the vehicle side. Check

each part for interference with other components, and then tighten the nuts and bolts to specifica-

tion. 

INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION

• With the engine running, check exhaust tube joints for gas leakage and unusual noises.

• Check to ensure that mounting brackets and mounting rubbers are installed properly and free from undue

stress. Improper installation could result in excessive noise and vibration.
