Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) ``AIR
BAG'' and ``SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER''
The Supplemental Restraint System such as ``AIR BAG'' and ``SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER'' used along with
a seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger in a frontal collision.
The SRS system composition which is available to NISSAN MODEL Y61 is as follows (The composition var-
ies according to the destination.):
Driver air bag module (located in the center of the steering wheel), front passenger air bag module (located
on the instrument panel on passenger side), seat belt pre-tensioner, a diagnosis sensor unit, warning lamp,
wiring harness and spiral cable.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in theRS sectionof this Service Manual.
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 in¯ation, all maintenance must be performed
by an authorized NISSAN 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 RS section.
+ Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. Spiral Cable and wiring harnesses covered with yellow insulation either just before
the harness connectors or for the complete harness are related to the SRS.
Precautions for Brake System
+Use brake ¯uid ``DOT 3''.
+ Never reuse drained brake ¯uid.
+ Be careful not to splash brake ¯uid on painted areas; it
may cause paint damage. If brake ¯uid is splashed on
painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.
+ To clean master cylinder parts, disc brake caliper parts or
wheel cylinder parts, use clean brake ¯uid.
+ Never use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene. They
will ruin rubber parts of hydraulic system.
+ Use ¯are nut wrench when removing and installing brake
tubes.
+ Always torque brake lines when installing.
WARNING:
Clean brakes with a vacuum dust collector to minimize risk of
health hazard from powder caused by friction.

1. Ensure vehicle is unladen condition*.* Fuel, radiator coolant and engine oil full. Spare tire, jack,hand tools and mats in designated positions.
2. Have a driver sit in the driver's seat and one person sit on the rear end. Then have the person on the rear end slowly get off
the vehicle. This is necessary to stabilize suspension de¯ec-
tion.
3. Gradually depress brake pedal and attach a lever to the stop- per bolt, then adjust length ``L'' as follows:Length ``L'': Approx. 175.2 - 178.2 mm (6.90 - 7.02 in)
4. Remove front LH tire.
5. Connect tool to air bleeders on front LH brake caliper and rear LH or RH brake wheel cylinder.
6. Install front LH tire.
Before installing front LH tire, con®rm the tool is not touching
the front LH wheel.
7. Bleed air from Tool.
8. Raise front brake pressure to 4,904 kPa (49.0 bar, 50 kg/cm
2,
711 psi) and 9,807 kPa (98.1 bar, 100 kg/cm2, 1,422 psi) and
check rear brake pressure. Rear brake pressure: Refer to table on next page.

1. Loosen lock nut and adjust pedal free height by turning brakebooster input rod. Then tighten lock nut.
Make sure that tip of input rod stays inside.
2. Adjust clearance ``C
1'' and ``C2'' with stop lamp switch and
ASCD switch respectively. Then tighten lock nuts.
3. Check pedal free play.
Make sure that stop lamp is off when pedal is released.
4. Check brake pedal's depressed height while engine is running. If depressed height is below speci®ed value, check brake sys-
tem for leaks, accumulation of air or any damage to compo-
nents (master cylinder, wheel cylinder, etc.). Then make nec-
essary repairs.

Inspection Ð Rotor
RUNOUT
1. Secure rotor to wheel hub with at least two nuts (M12 ý 1.25).
2. Check runout using a dial indicator.
Make sure that wheel bearing axial end play is within the
speci®cations before measuring. Refer to FA section (``Front
Wheel Bearing'', ``ON-VEHICLE SERVICE'').Maximum runout:0.1 mm (0.004 in)
3. If the runout is out of speci®cation, ®nd minimum runout posi- tion as follows:
a. Remove nuts and rotor from wheel hub.
b. Shift the rotor one hole and secure rotor to wheel hub withnuts.

REAR DISC BRAKE
BR-28
Purpose
The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) consists of electronic and hydraulic components. It allows for control of
braking force so locking of the wheels can be avoided.
The ABS:
1) Improves proper tracking performance through steering wheel operation.
2) Eases obstacle avoidance through steering wheel operation.
3) Improves vehicle stability.
Operation
+When the vehicle speed is less than 10 km/h (6 MPH) this system does not work.
+ The Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) has a self-test function. The system turns on the ABS warning lamp
for 1 second each time the ignition switch is turned ``ON''. After the engine is started, the ABS warning
lamp turns off. The system performs a test the ®rst time the vehicle reaches 6 km/h (4 MPH). A mechani-
cal noise may be heard as the ABS performs this self-test. This is a normal part of the self-test feature. If
a malfunction is found during this check, the ABS warning lamp will stay on.
+ While driving, a mechanical noise may be heard during ABS operation. This is a normal condition.
+ While DIFF-LOCK is on, the anti-lock brake warning light ¯ashes. This indicates that anti-lock may not be
fully operated. (ABS only)
