PRECAUTIONS
Supplemental RestraintSystem(SRS)"AIR
BAG" (DualAirBag System)

The Supplemental RestraintSystem"AirBag", usedalong withaseat belt,helps toreduce therisk or
severity ofinjury tothe driver andfront passenger inafrontal collision. TheSupplemental Restraint
System consists ofair bag modules (locatedinthe center ofthe steering wheelandonthe instrument
panel onthe passenger side),adiagnosis sensorunit,warning lamp,wiring harness andspiral cable.
Information necessarytoservice thesystem safelyisincluded inthe
RSsection
ofthis Service Manual.

WARNING:
• Toavoid rendering theSRS inoperative, whichcouldincrease therisk ofpersonal injuryordeath
in the event ofacollision whichwould resultinair bag inflation, allmaintenance mustbeperformed
by an authorized NISSANdealer.
• Improper maintenance, includingincorrectremovalandinstallation ofthe SRS, canlead topersonal
injury caused byunintentional activationofthe system.
• Donot use electrical testequipment onany circuit related tothe SRS unless instructed tointhis
Service Manual. SRSwiring harnesses arecovered withyellow insulation eitherjustbefore the
harness connectors orfor the complete harness,foreasy identification.

• Check battery typeanddetermine thespecified currentusingthetable
shown above.
• After starting charging, adjustment ofcharging currentisnot necessary.

CAUTION: • Donot use quick charge method onabattery whosespecific gravityisless than 1.100.
• Set initial charging currenttovalue specified inFig. 6.Ifcharger isnot capable ofproducing spec-
ified current value,setitscharging currentasclose tothat value aspossible.
• Keep battery awayfromopen flame whileitis being charged.
• When connecting charger,connectleadsfirst,thenturnoncharger. Donot turn oncharger first,as
this may cause aspark.
• Becareful ofarise inbattery temperature becausealarge current flowisrequired duringquick-
charge operation.

If
battery temperature risesabove 60°C(140°F), stopcharging. Alwayschargebatterywhenitstem-
perature isbelow 60°C(140°F).
• Donot exceed thecharging timespecified inFig. 6,because charging batteryoverthecharging time
can cause deterioration ofthe battery.
