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

INFOID:0000000005527114

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.

Handling for Adhesive and Primer

INFOID:0000000005274588

• Do not use an adhesive which is past its usable date. Shelf life of this product is limited to six months after

the date of manufacture. Carefully adhere to the expiration or manufacture date printed on the box.

• Keep primers and adhesive in a cool, dry place. Ideally, they should be stored in a refrigerator.
• Open the seal of the primer and adhesive just before application. Discard the remainder.
• Before application, be sure to shake the primer container to stir the contents. If any floating material is found,

do not use it.

• If any primer or adhesive contacts the skin, wipe it off with gasoline or equivalent and wash the skin with

soap.

• When using primer and adhesive, always observe the precautions in the instruction manual.

• While the urethane adhesive is curing, open a door window. This will prevent the glass from being forced out

by passenger compartment air pressure when a door is closed.

• The molding must be installed securely so that it is in position and leaves no gap.
• Inform the customer that the vehicle should remain stationary until the urethane adhesive has completely

cured (preferably 24 hours). Curing time varies with temperature and humidity.

WARNING:

• Keep heat and open flames away as primers and adhesive are flammable.
• The materials contained in the kit are harmful if swallowed, and may irritate skin and eyes. Avoid

contact with the skin and eyes.

• Use in an open, well ventilated location. Avoid breathing the vapors. They can be harmful if inhaled.

If affected by vapor inhalation, immediately move to an area with fresh air.

• Driving the vehicle before the urethane adhesive has completely cured may affect the performance

of the windshield in case of an accident.

CAUTION:

• Do not use an adhesive which is past its usable term. Shelf life of this product is limited to six

months after the date of manufacture. Carefully adhere to the expiration or manufacture date printed
on the box.

• Keep primers and adhesive in a cool, dry place. Ideally, they should be stored in a refrigerator.
• Do not leave primers or adhesive cartridge unattended with their caps open or off.
• The vehicle should not be driven for at least 24 hours or until the urethane adhesive has completely

cured. Curing time varies depending on temperature and humidities. The curing time will increase
under lower temperatures and lower humidities.
