Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) ªAIR
BAGº and ªSEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONERº
NBBR0001The Supplemental Restraint System such as ªAIR BAGº and ªSEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONERº used along with
a seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain types of
collision. The SRS system composition which is available to INFINITI QX4 is as follows:
IFor a frontal collision
The Supplemental Restraint System consists of driver air bag module (located in the center of the steer-
ing wheel), front passenger air bag module (located on the instrument panel on passenger side), seat belt
pre-tensioners, a diagnosis sensor unit, warning lamp, wiring harness and spiral cable.
IFor a side collision
The Supplemental Restraint System consists of side air bag module (located in the outer side of front seat),
satellite sensor, diagnosis sensor unit (one of components of air bags for a frontal collision), wiring harness,
warning lamp (one of components of air bags for a frontal collision).
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in theRS sectionof this Service Manual.
WARNING:
ITo 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 INFINITI dealer.
IImproper 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.
IDo 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 tape either just
before the harness connectors or for the complete harness are related to the SRS.
SBR686C
Precautions for Brake SystemNBBR0002IUse brake fluid ªDOT 3º.
INever reuse drained brake fluid.
IBe careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it
may cause paint damage. If brake fluid is splashed on
painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.
ITo clean master cylinder parts, disc brake caliper parts or
wheel cylinder parts, use clean brake fluid.
INever use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene. They
will ruin rubber parts of hydraulic system.
IUse flare nut wrench when removing and installing brake
tubes.
IAlways torque brake lines when installing.
WARNING:
IClean brakes with a vacuum dust collector to minimize
risk of health hazard from powder caused by friction.

Bleeding Brake System=NBBR0009CAUTION:
ICarefully monitor brake fluid level at master cylinder dur-
ing bleeding operation.
IIf master cylinder is suspected to have air inside, bleed air
from master cylinder first. Refer to ªInstallationº, ªMAS-
TER CYLINDERº, BR-18.
IFill reservoir with new brake fluid ªDOT 3º. Make sure it is
full at all times while bleeding air out of system.
IPlace a container under master cylinder to avoid spillage
of brake fluid.
ITurn ignition switch OFF and disconnect ABS actuator
and electric unit connectors or battery ground cable.
IBleed air in the following order.
1. LSV air bleeder (4WD)
2. Left rear brake
3. Right rear brake
4. Left front brake
5. Right front brake
SBR419C
1. Connect a transparent vinyl tube to air bleeder valve.
2. Fully depress brake pedal several times.
3. With brake pedal depressed, open air bleeder valve to release
air.
4. Close air bleeder valve.
5. Release brake pedal slowly.
6. Repeat steps 2. through 5. until clear brake fluid comes out of
air bleeder valve.
7. Tighten air bleeder valve.
