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

INFOID:0000000009162049

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 AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT” of this
Service Manual.

WARNING:

Always observe the following items for preventing accidental activation.
• To avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in

the event of a collision that 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 “SRS AIR BAG”.

• Never use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this Ser-

vice Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identified by yellow and/or orange harnesses or harness
connectors.

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

WARNING:

Always observe the following items for preventing accidental activation.
• When working near the Air Bag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Air Bag System sensors with the

ignition ON or engine running, never 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.

Precautions Necessary for Steering Wheel Rotation After Battery Disconnection

INFOID:0000000009162050

CAUTION:

Comply with the following cautions to prevent any error and malfunction.
• Before removing and installing any control units, first turn the ignition switch to the LOCK position,

then disconnect both battery cables.

• After finishing work, confirm that all control unit connectors are connected properly, then re-connect

both battery cables.

• Always use CONSULT to perform self-diagnosis as a part of each function inspection after finishing

work. If a DTC is detected, perform trouble diagnosis according to self-diagnosis results.

For vehicle with steering lock unit, if the battery is disconnected or discharged, the steering wheel will lock and
cannot be turned.
If turning the steering wheel is required with the battery disconnected or discharged, follow the operation pro-
cedure below before starting the repair operation.

OPERATION PROCEDURE

Connect both battery cables.

Revision: 2012 November

DLN-4

< PRECAUTION >

[TRANSFER]

PRECAUTIONS

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

Turn the ignition switch to ACC position.
(At this time, the steering lock will be released.)

Disconnect both battery cables. The steering lock will remain released with both battery cables discon-
nected and the steering wheel can be turned.

Perform the necessary repair operation.

When the repair work is completed, re-connect both battery cables. With the brake pedal released, turn
the ignition switch from ACC position to ON position, then to LOCK position. (The steering wheel will lock
when the ignition switch is turned to LOCK position.)

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

Precaution for Battery Service

INFOID:0000000009162051

Before disconnecting the battery, lower both the driver and passenger windows. This will prevent any interfer-
ence between the window edge and the vehicle when the door is opened/closed. During normal operation, the
window slightly raises and lowers automatically to prevent any window to vehicle interference. The automatic
window function will not work with the battery disconnected.

Aluminum Die-Casting Parts Handling

INFOID:0000000009162052

PROHIBITION OF WELDING OR BEATING REPAIR

• Material made of aluminum die-casting parts is heat-treated and looses strength when being exposed to

welding heat. Do not perform welding repair for cracks, damage or others.

• For aluminum die-casting parts deformation, do not perform repair by beating. Always repair by replacement

as an assembly.

CRACK CHECK

When the vehicle is damaged, always perform a visual deformation check and a crack check.

Crack Check Procedures

For a crack check, use dye penetrant inspection fluid (pre-cleaning fluid, penetrant fluid and developer fluid).

CAUTION:

Always perform a crack check in accordance with the procedures specified by the manufacturer of the
dye penetrant inspection fluid.
1.

Spray pre-cleaning fluid on the checking surface for cleaning.

Spray penetrant fluid on the checking surface and wait until the penetrant fluid soaks into any cracks.

Wipe off excessive penetrant fluid, and then also lightly wipe off penetrant fluid using a wet cloth.

Spray developer fluid on the checking surface.

Cracks, if any, are dyed red in color.

STRAY CURRENT CORROSION

• Corrosion occurs to aluminum die-casting parts by the stray current corrosion phenomenon, when directly

contacting other parts made of steel. Always apply anti-stray current corrosion paint (primer) on the mount-
ing surface.

• Clean mounting surface to prevent any foreign matter, steel powder or others from being mixed in. Always

apply the specified adhesive when installing.

• Corrosion by stray current corrosion may occur when installing with any other bolts than the specified bolt.

Always use the specified bolt that is surface treated.

• When loosening the specified bolt that is tightened, the treated surface may peel. Never reuse the specified

bolt that is tightened once.

TIGHTENING TORQUE CONTROL

Material made of aluminum die-casting parts is soft in term of hardness. Tightening torque must be controlled
exactly as specified. Always use a torque wrench to install any part to the specified tightening torque.

WARNING:

Never use a power tool to remove or tighten bolts for aluminum die-casting part to prevent damage to
aluminum die-casting parts.

• Before starting diagnosis of the vehicle, understand symptoms well. Perform correct and systematic opera-

tions.

• Replace all tires at the same time. Always use tires of the proper size and the same brand and pattern. Fit-

ting improper size and unusually worn tires applies excessive force to vehicle mechanism and can cause
longitudinal vibration.
