PRECAUTIONS
Revision: 2004 November 2004 FX35/FX45
PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
AIS003CB
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 SRS 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 per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI 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 SRS 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
harness connectors.
PrecautionsAIS003CC
Disconnect both battery cables in advance.
Disconnect air bag system line in advance.
Never tamper with or force air bag lid open, as this may adversely affect air bag performance.
Be careful not to scratch pad and other parts.
When removing or disassembling any part, be careful not to damage or deform it. Protect parts, which
may get in the way with cloth.
When removing parts with a screwdriver or other tool, protect parts by wrapping them with vinyl or tape.
Keep removed parts protected with cloth.
If a clip is deformed or damaged, replace it.
If an unreusable part is removed, replace it with a new one.
Tighten bolts and nuts firmly to the specified torque.
After re-assembly has been completed, make sure each part functions correctly.
Remove stains in the following way.
Water-soluble stains:
Dip a soft cloth in warm water, and then squeeze it tightly. After wiping the stain, wipe with a soft dry cloth.
Oil stain:
Dissolve a synthetic detergent in warm water (density of 2 to 3% or less), dip the cloth, then clean off the stain
with the cloth. Next, dip the cloth in fresh water and squeeze it tightly. Then clean off the detergent completely.
Then wipe the area with a soft dry cloth.
Do not use any organic solvent, such as thinner or benzine.

FRONT FOG LAMP
Revision: 2004 November 2004 FX35/FX45
Bulb Replacement AKS007CU
1. Remove left side fender protector (front). Refer to EI-25,
"Removal and Installation" , EI-14, "Removal and Installation" in
“EI” section.
2. Disconnect fog lamp connector.
3. Turn bulb socket counterclockwise and unlock it.
CAUTION:
Do not touch the glass of bulb directly by hand. Keep
grease and other oily matters away from it. Do not touch
bulb by hand while it is lit or right after being turned off.
Burning may result.
Do not leave bulb out of fog lamp reflector for a long time because dust, moisture smoke, etc.
May affect the performance of fog lamp. When replacing bulb, be sure to replace it with new
one.
Removal and Installation AKS007CV
REMOVAL
1. Remove front bumper fascia. Refer to EI-14, "Removal and
Installation" in “EI” section.
2. Remove fog lamp mounting bolt.
3. Pull out fog lamp from vehicle and disconnect fog lamp connec-
tor.
INSTALLATION
Install fog lamp in the reverse order of removal, observing the tightening torque shown below.Fog lamp : 12 V - 51 W (HB4 halogen)

CAUTION:
When draining oil, protect exhaust tube flange with cover.
1. Drain oil from drain plug and refill with new gear oil.
2. Check oil level.
CAUTION:
Carefully fill the oil. (Fill up for Approx. 3 minutes.)
Checking Propeller ShaftALS000FL
Check propeller shaft for damage, looseness or grease leakage.
Checking Differential Gear OilALS000FM
Check for oil leakage.Fluid grade:

Tire RotationALS000HB
After rotation the tires, adjust the tire pressure.
Retighten the wheel nuts when the vehicle has been driven for
1,000 km (600 miles) (also in cases of a flat tire, etc.).
CAUTION:
Do not include the T-type spare tire when rotating the tires.
When installing wheels, tighten them diagonally by dividing
the work two to three times in order to prevent the wheels
from developing any distortion.
Checking Brake Fluid Level and LeaksALS000FQ
If fluid level is extremely low, check brake system for leaks.
Checking Brake Lines and CablesALS000FR
Check brake fluid lines and parking brake cables for improper
attachment, leaks, chafing, abrasions, deterioration, etc.
Changing Brake FluidALS000FS
1. Drain brake fluid from each bleed valve.
2. Refill until new brake fluid comes out from each bleed valve.
Use same procedure as in bleeding hydraulic system to refill
brake fluid.

Bleeding Brake System" .
Refill with recommended Genuine Nissan Super Heavy Duty
Brake Fluid or equivalent DOT 3 (US FMVSS No. 116).
Refer to MA-12, "
