Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
NFS000PY
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 NING :
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.
Precautions for Procedures without Cowl Top CoverNFS000PZ
When performing the procedure after removing cowl top cover, cover
the lower end of windshield with urethane, etc.
Precautions for Brake SystemNFS000Q0
Recommended fluid is brake fluid “DOT 3”.
Never reuse drained brake fluid.
Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted surface of body. If brake fluid is splashed on painted sur-
faces of body immediately wipe off then with cloth and then wash it away with water.
Never use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene. They will ruin rubber parts of the hydraulic system.
Use a flare nut wrench when removing flare nuts, and use a flare
nut torque wrench when tighten brake tube flare nuts.
When installing brake tubes, be sure to check torque.
Brake system is an important safety part. If a brake fluid leak is
detected, always disassemble the affected part. If a malfunction
is detected, replace part with a new one.
Before working, turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect con-
nectors of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) or the bat-
tery cable from the negative terminal.
WAR NING :
Clean brake pads and shoes with a waste cloth, then wipe with
a dust collector.

PRECAUTIONS
Revision: 2006 January2006 M35/M45
Precautions for Brake ControlNFS000Q1
Just after starting vehicle after ignition switch ON, brake pedal may vibrate or motor operating noise may
be heard from engine compartment. This is normal condition.
When an error is indicated by ABS or another warning lamp, collect all necessary information from cus-
tomer (what symptoms are present under what conditions) and check for simple causes before starting
diagnostic servicing. Besides electrical system inspection, check brake booster operation, brake fluid
level, and oil leaks.
If tire size and type are used in an improper combination, or brake pads are not Genuine NISSAN parts,
stopping distance or steering stability may deteriorate.
ABS might be out of order or malfunctions by putting a radio (wiring inclusive), an antenna and a lead-in
wire near the control unit.
If aftermarket parts (car stereo, CD player, etc.) have been installed, check for incidents such as harness
pinches, open circuits, and improper wiring.
VDC system may not operate normally or a VDC OFF indicator lamp or SLIP indicator lamp may light.
–When replacing the following parts with parts other than genuine parts or making modifications: Suspen-
sion-related parts (shock absorber, spring, bushing, etc.), tires, wheels (other than specified sizes), brake-
related parts (pad, rotor, caliper, etc.), engine-related parts (muffler, ECM, etc.) and body reinforcement-
related parts (roll bar, tower bar, etc.).
–When driving with worn or deteriorated suspension, tires and brake-related parts.

3. Attach liquid gasket tube to the tube presser [SST: WS39930000
(—)].
Use Genuine RTV Silicone Sealant or equivalent. Refer to
GI-48, "
RECOMMENDED CHEMICAL PRODUCTS AND
SEALANTS" .
4. Apply liquid gasket without breaks to the specified location with
the specified dimensions.
If there is a groove for the liquid gasket application, apply liq-
uid gasket to the groove.
As for the bolt holes, normally apply liquid gasket inside the
holes. Occasionally, it should be applied outside the holes.
Make sure to read the text of service manual.
Within five minutes of liquid gasket application, install the mat-
ing component.
If liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.
Do not retighten after mounting bolts and nuts the installation.
After 30 minutes or more have passed from the installation, fill
engine oil and engine coolant.
CAUTION:
If there are specific instructions in this manual, observe them.

RADIATOR
Revision: 2006 January2006 M35/M45
Minimize the lift of A/C condenser to prevent load from being applied to A/C piping.
e. After removing the radiator, place the A/C condenser on the radiator core support to prevent load from
being applied to piping. And then, temporarily secure them using a rope to prevent them from being
dropped.
INSTALLATION
Installation is the reverse order of removal.
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
Check for leaks of engine coolant using the radiator cap tester adapter [SST: EG17650301 (J33984-A)]
and the radiator cap tester (commercial service tool). Refer to CO-11, "
LEAK CHECK" .
Start and warm up the engine. Visually make sure that there is no leaks of engine coolant and A/T fluid.
Checking Radiator CapNBS004QU
Check valve seat of radiator cap.
–Check if valve seat is swollen to the extent that the edge of the
plunger cannot be seen when watching it vertically from the top.
–Check if valve seat has no soil and damage.
Pull negative-pressure valve to open it, and make sure that it
close completely when released.
–Make sure that there is no dirt or damage on the valve seat of
radiator cap negative-pressure valve.
–Make sure that there are no unusualness in the opening and
closing conditions of negative-pressure valve.
Check radiator cap relief pressure.
–When connecting radiator cap to the radiator cap tester (com-
mercial service tool) and the radiator cap tester adapter (SST),
apply engine coolant to the cap seal surface.
Replace radiator cap if there is an unusualness related to the above three.
CAUTION:
When installing radiator cap, thoroughly wipe out the radiator filler neck to remove any waxy residue
or foreign material.
Checking RadiatorNBS004QV
Check radiator for mud or clogging. If necessary, clean radiator as follows.
Be careful not to bend or damage radiator fins.
