DESCRIPTION
This section is prepared for technicians who have attained a high level of skill and experience in repairing col-
lision-damaged vehicles and also use modern service tools and equipment. Persons unfamiliar with body
repair techniques should not attempt to repair collision-damaged vehicles by using this section.
Technicians are also encouraged to read Body Repair Manual (Fundamentals) in order to ensure that the orig-
inal functions and quality of the vehicle can be maintained. The Body Repair Manual (Fundamentals) contains
additional information, including cautions and warnings, that are not including in this manual. Technicians
should refer to both manuals to ensure proper repairs.
Please note that this information is prepared for worldwide usage, and as such, certain procedures may not
apply in some regions or countries.

PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
EFS004VW
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.
Precautions for Brake SystemEFS004VX

Always use recommended brake fluid. Refer to MA-11, "RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS" .

Do not reuse drained brake fluid.

Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas.

To clean or wash all parts of master cylinder, disc brake caliper and wheel cylinder, use clean brake fluid.

Do not use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene. They will ruin rubber parts of the hydraulic system.

Use flare nut wrench when removing and installing brake tube.

Always check tightening torque when installing brake lines.

Before working, turn ignition switch to OFF and disconnect con-
nectors for ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) or battery
terminals.

Burnish the brake contact surfaces after refinishing or replacing
drums or rotors, after replacing pads or linings, or if a soft pedal
occurs at very low mileage.
Refer to BR-25, "
BRAKE BURNISHING PROCEDURE" .
WARNING:

Clean brake pads and shoes with a waste cloth, then wipe
with a dust collector.SBR686C

BRAKE PEDAL
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
Removal and Installation EFS0068Q
REMOVAL
WARNING:
Do not deform the brake tube.
CAUTION:

Before removal and installation the accelerator and brake pedals must be in the forward most
position (closest to the floor). This is to align the base position of the accelerator and brake ped-
als.

Do not disassemble the brake pedal adjusting mechanism.

Avoid damage from dropping the brake pedal assembly during handling.

Keep the brake pedal assembly away from water.
1. Remove the lower driver instrument panel. Refer to IP-13, "
INSTRUMENT LOWER COVER LH" .
2. Remove the stop lamp switch and ASCD switch from the pedal assembly.

BRAKE FLUIDPFP:KN100
On-board InspectionEFS004W2
LEVEL CHECK

Make sure the fluid level in reservoir tank is within the standard
(between MAX and MIN lines).

Visually check around reservoir tank for fluid leaks.

If fluid level is excessively low, check brake system for leaks.

If brake warning lamp remains illuminated after parking lever is
released, check brake system for fluid leakage.
Drain and RefillEFS004W3
CAUTION:

Refill with new brake fluid. Refer to MA-11, "RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS" .

Do not reuse drained brake fluid.

Do not let brake fluid splash on the painted surfaces of the body. This might damage the paint, so
when splashing it, immediately wipe off the area and wash away with water.

Before servicing, disconnect actuator connector or battery negative cable.
1. Connect a vinyl tube to each bleed valve.
2. Depress brake pedal, loosen each bleed valve, and gradually remove brake fluid.
3. Make sure there is no foreign material in reservoir tank, and refill with new brake fluid.
4. Rest foot on brake pedal. Loosen bleed valve. Slowly depress pedal until it stops. Tighten bleed valve. Release brake pedal.
Repeat this process a few times, then pause to add new brake
fluid to master cylinder. Continue until new brake fluid flows out.
Bleed air from brake system. Refer to BR-11, "
Bleeding Brake
System" .

FRONT DISC BRAKE
Revision: November 20092006 QX56
WARNING:
Clean dust on cylinder body and brake pads with a vacuum dust collector to minimize the hazard of
airborne particles or other materials.
CAUTION:

While removing cylinder body never depress brake pedal because piston will pop out.

It is not necessary to remove bolts on torque member and brake hose except for disassembly or
replacement of cylinder body. In this case, hang cylinder body with a wire so as not to stretch
brake hose.

Do not damage piston boot.

Burnish brake contact surface after refinishing or replacing rotors, after replacing pads, or if a soft
pedal occurs at very low mileage. Refer to BR-25, "
BRAKE BURNISHING PROCEDURE" .
Removal and Installation of Brake PadEFS004WI
REMOVAL
1. Remove tires from vehicle using power tool.
2. Remove lower sliding pin bolt.
3. Suspend cylinder body with a wire and remove pads, shims and pad retainers from torque member.

CAUTION:
By pushing in piston, brake fluid returns to master cylinder reservoir tank. Watch the level of the
surface of reservoir tank.
NOTE:
Using a disc brake piston tool (commercial service tool), makes it easier to push in piston.
2. Attach pad retainers, pads and shims to torque member.

Apply Molykote M-77 grease to pad retainer where brake pad
contacts and between pad and shim.
CAUTION:

When attaching pad retainer, attach it firmly so that it is
seated fully in the torque member as shown.

Do not get grease on the brake rotor friction surface.
3. Install lower sliding pin bolt and tighten it to the specified torque. Refer to BR-21, "
