Observe the following precautions to ensure safe and proper
servicing. These precautions are not described in each indi-
vidual section.
Precaution for 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 pas-
senger in a frontal collision. The SRS system composition which is
available to NISSAN MODEL Y61 is as follows (The composition
varies 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 main-
tenance must be performed by an authorized NISSAN
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 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 are covered with yellow
insulation either just before the harness connectors or for
the complete harness are related to the SRS.

PRECAUTIONS
GI-1
General Precautions
+Do not operate the engine for an extended period of time with-
out proper exhaust ventilation.
Keep the work area well ventilated and free of any in¯ammable
materials. Special care should be taken when handling any
in¯ammable or poisonous materials, such as gasoline, refriger-
ant gas, etc. When working in a pit or other enclosed area, be
sure to properly ventilate the area before working with hazard-
ous materials.
Do not smoke while working on the vehicle.
+Before jacking up the vehicle, apply wheel chocks or other tire
blocks to the wheels to prevent the vehicle from moving. After
jacking up the vehicle, support the vehicle weight with safety
stands at the points designated for proper lifting before work-
ing on the vehicle.
These operations should be done on a level surface.
+When removing a heavy component such as the engine or
transaxle/transmission, be careful not to lose your balance and
drop it. Also, do not allow it to strike adjacent parts, especially
the brake tubes and master cylinder.
+Before starting repairs which do not require battery power:
Turn off ignition switch.
Disconnect the negative battery terminal.
+To prevent serious burns:
Avoid contact with hot metal parts.
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot.
+Before servicing the vehicle:
Protect fenders, upholstery and carpeting with appropriate cov-
ers.
Take caution that keys, buckles or buttons do not scratch paint.
