Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) ``AIR
BAG'' and ``SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER''
The Supplemental Restraint System such as ``AIR BAG'' and ``SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER'' used along with
a seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger in a frontal collision.
The SRS system composition which is available to NISSAN MODEL Y61 is as follows (The composition var-
ies according to the destination.):
Driver air bag module (located in the center of the steering wheel), front passenger air bag module (located
on the instrument panel on passenger side), seat belt pre-tensioner, a diagnosis sensor unit, warning lamp,
wiring harness and spiral cable.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in theRS sectionof this Service Manual.
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 in¯ation, all maintenance must be performed
by an authorized NISSAN dealer.
+ Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to per-
sonal injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air
Bag Module, see the RS section.
+ Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. Spiral Cable and wiring harnesses covered with yellow insulation either just before
the harness connectors or for the complete harness are related to the SRS.
Precautions for Brake System
+Use brake ¯uid ``DOT 3''.
+ Never reuse drained brake ¯uid.
+ Be careful not to splash brake ¯uid on painted areas; it
may cause paint damage. If brake ¯uid is splashed on
painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.
+ To clean master cylinder parts, disc brake caliper parts or
wheel cylinder parts, use clean brake ¯uid.
+ Never use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene. They
will ruin rubber parts of hydraulic system.
+ Use ¯are nut wrench when removing and installing brake
tubes.
+ Always torque brake lines when installing.
WARNING:
Clean brakes with a vacuum dust collector to minimize risk of
health hazard from powder caused by friction.

5. Install valve stopper while piston is pushed into cylinder (Modelwith ABS only).
Installation
CAUTION:
+Re®ll with new brake ¯uid ``DOT 3''.
+ Never reuse drained brake ¯uid.
1. Place master cylinder onto brake booster and secure mounting nuts lightly.
2. Torque mounting nuts.
:12-15N zm (1.2 - 1.5 kg-m ,9-11ft-lb)
3. Fill up reservoir tank with new brake ¯uid.
4. Plug all ports on master cylinder with ®ngers to prevent air suction while releasing brake pedal.
5. Have driver depress brake pedal slowly several times until no air comes out of master cylinder.
6. Fit brake lines to master cylinder.
7. Tighten ¯are nuts.
:15-17N zm (1.5 - 1.7 kg-m, 11 - 12 ft-lb)
8. Bleed air. Refer to ``Bleeding Brake System'', BR-4.

Pad Replacement
WARNING:
Clean brakes with a vacuum dust collector to minimize the
hazard of airborne particles or other materials.
CAUTION:
+When cylinder body is removed, do not depress brake
pedal, or piston will pop out.
+ Be careful not to damage piston boot or get oil on rotor.
Always replace shims when replacing pads.
+ If shims are rusted or show peeling of the rubber coat,
replace them with new shims.
+ It is not necessary to remove connecting bolt except for
disassembly or replacement of caliper assembly. In this
case, suspend cylinder body with wire so as not to stretch
brake hose.
+ Carefully monitor brake ¯uid level because brake ¯uid will
return to reservoir when pushing back piston.
+ Always remove pad retainer in the direction of the arrow.
Failure to do so will damage pawl areas, causing pad
retainer to be unsuitable for further use.
1. Remove master cylinder reservoir cap.
2. Remove upper and lower pin bolts.
3. Remove cylinder body from torque member. Then remove pads, pad retainers, and inner and outer shims.Standard pad thickness: 12.0 mm (0.472 in)
Pad wear limit: 2.0 mm (0.079 in)
Carefully monitor brake ¯uid level because brake ¯uid will
return to reservoir when pushing back piston.

Removal
WARNING:
Clean brake pads with a vacuum dust collector to minimize the
hazard of airborne particles or other materials.
CAUTION:
Suspend caliper assembly with wire so as not to stretch brake
hose.
Remove torque member ®xing bolts and connecting bolt.
It is not necessary to remove connecting bolt except for dis-
assembly or replacement of caliper assembly. In this case,
suspend caliper assembly with wire so as not to stretch brake
hose.
Disassembly
WARNING:
Do not place your ®ngers in front of piston.
CAUTION:
Do not scratch or score cylinder wall.
1. Push out piston with dust seal with compressed air.
2. Remove piston seal with a suitable tool.
Inspection Ð Caliper
CYLINDER BODY
+Check inside surface of cylinder for score, rust, wear, damage
or presence of foreign objects. If any of the above conditions
are observed, replace cylinder body.
+ Minor damage from rust or foreign objects may be eliminated
by polishing surface with a ®ne emery paper. Replace cylinder
body if necessary.
CAUTION:
Use brake ¯uid to clean. Never use mineral oil.
PISTON
Check piston for score, rust, wear, damage or presence of foreign
objects. Replace if any of the above conditions are observed.
CAUTION:
Piston sliding surface is plated. Do not polish with emery
paper even if rust or foreign objects are stuck to sliding sur-
face.
SLIDE PIN, PIN BOLT AND PIN BOOT
Check for wear, cracks, rust or other damage. Replace if any of the
above conditions are observed.
