PRECAUTIONS
Revision: October 20052005 QX56
PRECAUTIONS PFP:00011
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
EKS00B7P
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.
WAR NIN G:

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.
General precautions for service operationsEKS00B7Q

Never work with wet hands.

Xenon headlamp includes high voltage generating part. Be sure
to disconnect battery negative cable (negative terminal) or
power fuse before removing, installing, or touching the xenon
headlamp (including lamp bulb).

Turn the lighting switch OFF before disconnecting and connect-
ing the connector.

When turning the xenon headlamp on and while it is illuminated,
never touch the harness, bulb, and socket of the headlamp.

When checking the headlamp on/off operation, check it on vehi-
cle and with the power connected to the vehicle-side connector.

Do not touch the headlamp bulb glass surface with bare hands or allow oil or grease to get on it. Do not
touch the headlamp bulb just after the headlamp is turned off, because it is very hot.

Install the xenon headlamp bulb socket correctly. If it is installed
improperly, high-voltage leak or corona discharge may occur
that can melt the bulb, connector, and housing. Do not illuminate
the xenon headlamp bulb out of the headlamp housing. Doing
so can cause fire and harm your eyes.

When the bulb has burned out, wrap it in a thick vinyl bag and
discard. Do not break the bulb.

Leaving the bulb removed from the headlamp housing for a long
period of time can deteriorate the performance of the lens and
reflector (dirt, clouding). Always prepare a new bulb and have it
on hand when replacing the bulb.

Do not use organic solvent (paint thinner or gasoline) to clean
lamps and to remove old sealant.
Wiring Diagrams and Trouble DiagnosisEKS00B7R
When you read wiring diagrams, refer to the following:

Refer to GI-15, "How to Read Wiring Diagrams" in GI section.

Refer to PG-4, "POWER SUPPLY ROUTING CIRCUIT" for power distribution in PG section.
When you perform trouble diagnosis, refer to the following:

Refer to GI-11, "HOW TO FOLLOW TEST GROUPS IN TROUBLE DIAGNOSES" in GI section.

HEADLAMP (FOR USA)
Revision: October 20052005 QX56

Power consumption is approximately 25 percent less than halogen headlamps, reducing battery load.
BATTERY SAVER CONTROL
When the combination switch (lighting switch) is in the 2ND position (ON), and the ignition switch is turned
from ON or ACC to OFF, the battery saver control feature is activated.
Under this condition, the headlamps remain illuminated for 5 minutes, unless the combination switch (lighting
switch) position is changed. If the combination switch (lighting switch) position is changed, then the headlamps
are turned off.
AUTO LIGHT OPERATION
Refer to LT- 4 8 , "System Description" for auto light operation.
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM (PANIC ALARM)
The vehicle security system (panic alarm) will flash the high beams if the system is triggered. Refer to BL-48,
"Panic Alarm Operation" .
CAN Communication System DescriptionEKS00B7U
