PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
DescriptionEAS001GG
Observe the following precautions to ensure safe and proper servicing. These precautions are not
described in each individual section.
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
EAS001GH
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. Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SRS and SB section of
this Service Manual.
WARNING:
lTo 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.
lImproper 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.
lDo 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.
Precautions for NATS (NISSAN ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM)EAS001GI
NATS will immobilize the engine if someone tries to start it without the registered key of NATS.
Both of the originally supplied ignition key IDs have been NATS registered.
The security indicator is located on the instrument panel. The indicator blinks when the immobilizer system is
functioning.
Therefore, NATS warns outsiders that the vehicle is equipped with the anti-theft system.
lWhen NATS detects trouble, the security indicator lamp lights up while ignition switch is in "ON" position.
This lighting up indicates that the anti-theft is not functioning, so prompt service is required.
lWhen servicing NATS (trouble diagnoses, system initialization and additional registration of other NATS
ignition key IDs), CONSULT-II hardware and CONSULT-II NATS software is necessary.
Regarding the procedures of NATS initialization and NATS ignition key ID registration, refer to CONSULT-
II operation manual, NATS.
Therefore, CONSULT-II NATS software (program card and operation manual) must be kept strictly con-
fidential to maintain the integrity of the anti-theft function.
lWhen servicing NATS (trouble diagnoses, system initialization and additional registration of other NATS
ignition key IDs), it may be necessary to re-register original key identification. Therefore, be sure to
receive all keys from vehicle owner. A maximum of four or five key IDs can be registered into NATS.
lWhen failing to start the engine first time using the key of NATS, start as follows.
1. Leave the ignition key in "ON" position for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Turn ignition key to "OFF" or "LOCK" position and wait approximately 5 seconds.
3. Repeat step 1 and 2 again.
4. Restart the engine while keeping the key separate from any others on key-chain.
Precautions Necessary for Steering Wheel Rotation After Battery DisconnectEAS001HY
NOTE:
lThis Procedure is applied only to models with Intelligent Key system and NATS (NISSAN ANTI-THEFT
SYSTEM).
lRemove and install all control units after disconnecting both battery cables with the ignition knob in the
²LOCK²position.
lAlways use CONSULT-II to perform self-diagnosis as a part of each function inspection after finishing
work. If DTC is detected, perform trouble diagnosis according to self-diagnostic results.
For models equipped with the Intelligent Key system and NATS, an electrically controlled steering lock mech-
anism is adopted on the key cylinder.

lTo prevent serious burns:
Avoid contact with hot metal parts.
Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot.
lDispose of drained oil or the solvent used for cleaning parts in
an appropriate manner.
lDo not attempt to top off the fuel tank after the fuel pump nozzle
shuts off automatically.
Continued refueling may cause fuel overflow, resulting in fuel
spray and possibly a fire.
lClean all disassembled parts in the designated liquid or solvent
prior to inspection or assembly.
lReplace oil seals, gaskets, packings, O-rings, locking washers, cotter pins, self-locking nuts, etc. with new
ones.
lReplace inner and outer races of tapered roller bearings and needle bearings as a set.
lArrange the disassembled parts in accordance with their assembled locations and sequence.
lDo not touch the terminals of electrical components which use microcomputers (such as ECM).
Static electricity may damage internal electronic components.
lAfter disconnecting vacuum or air hoses, attach a tag to indicate the proper connection.
lUse only the fluids and lubricants specified in this manual.
lUse approved bonding agent, sealants or their equivalents when required.
lUse tools and recommended special tools where specified for safe and efficient service repairs.
lWhen repairing the fuel, oil, water, vacuum or exhaust systems, check all affected lines for leaks.
lBefore servicing the vehicle:
Protect fenders, upholstery and carpeting with appropriate cov-
ers.
Take caution that keys, buckles or buttons do not scratch paint.
WARNING:
To prevent ECM from storing the diagnostic trouble codes, do not carelessly disconnect the harness
connectors which are related to the engine control system and TCM (transmission control module)
system. The connectors should be disconnected only when working according to the WORK FLOW of
TROUBLE DIAGNOSES in EC and AT sections.
Precautions for Three Way CatalystEAS001GL
If a large amount of unburned fuel flows into the catalyst, the catalyst temperature will be excessively high. To
prevent this, follow the instructions.
lUse unleaded gasoline only. Leaded gasoline will seriously damage the three way catalyst.
lWhen checking for ignition spark or measuring engine compression, make tests quickly and only when
necessary.
lDo not run engine when the fuel tank level is low, otherwise the engine may misfire, causing damage to
the catalyst.
Do not place the vehicle on flammable material. Keep flammable material off the exhaust pipe and the three
way catalyst.
Precautions for FuelEAS001GM
GASOLINE ENGINE
Use unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of at least 95 (RON).
