PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
EFS006L7
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.
Precautions for Brake System EFS006L8
CAUTION:
Refer to MA-11, "RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS" for recommended brake fluid.
Never reuse drained brake fluid.
Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it may cause paint damage. If brake fluid is
splashed on painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.
To clean or wash all parts of master cylinder and disc brake caliper, use clean brake fluid.
Never 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.
If a brake fluid leak is found, the part must be disassembled
without fail. Then it has to be replaced with a new one if a
defect exists.
Turn the ignition switch OFF and remove the connector of
the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) or the bat-
tery terminal before performing the work.
Always torque brake lines when installing.
Burnish the brake contact surfaces after refinishing or
replacing rotors, after replacing pads, or if a soft pedal
occurs at very low mileage. Refer to BR-29, "
Brake Burnishing Procedure" .
WAR NIN G:
Clean brake pads and shoes with a waste cloth, then wipe with a dust collector.
Precautions When Using CONSULT-IIEFS006L9
When connecting CONSULT-II to data link connector, connect them through CONSULT-II CONVERTER.
CAUTION:
If CONSULT-II is used with no connection of CONSULT-II CONVERTER, malfunctions might be
detected in self-diagnosis depending on control unit which carries out CAN communication.
CHECK POINTS FOR USING CONSULT-II
1. Has CONSULT-II been used without connecting CONSULT-II CONVERTER on this vehicle?
If YES, GO TO 2.
If NO, GO TO 5.

Service Notice or PrecautionsECS00FST
Use recommended brake fluid when adding fluid to the clutch reservoir tank. Refer to MA-11,
"RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS".
Never reuse fluid drained from clutch system.
Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas.
Use new brake fluid to clean or wash all parts of master cylinder and operating cylinder.
Never use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene. It will ruin the rubber parts of the hydraulic
system.
If transaxle assembly is removed from the vehicle, always replace CSC (Concentric slave cylin-
der). Return CSC to original position to remove transaxle assembly. Dust on clutch disc sliding
parts may damage CSC seal and may cause clutch fluid leakage.
Do not disassemble clutch master cylinder and CSC.
WAR NIN G:
After cleaning clutch disc, clean it with a dust collector. Do not use compressed air.

CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage the mating surfaces.
Tap Tool to insert it (1), and then slide it by tapping on the side
(2) as shown.
In areas where Tool is difficult to use, use plastic hammer to
lightly tap the parts, to remove it.
CAUTION:
If for some unavoidable reason suitable tool such as screw-
driver is used, be careful not to damage the mating sur-
faces.
LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Remove old liquid gasket adhering to the liquid gasket applica-
tion surface and the mating surface, using scraper.
Remove liquid gasket completely from the groove of the liquid
gasket application surface, bolts, and bolt holes.
2. Thoroughly clean the mating surfaces and remove adhering
moisture, grease and foreign materials.
3. Attach liquid gasket tube to Tool.
Use Genuine RTV Silicone Sealant or equivalent. Refer to GI-46, "
Recommended Chemical Prod-
ucts 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 liquid 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 nuts or bolts after 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.Tool number : KV10111100 (J-37228)

Checking Radiator CapEBS00T7E
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 is
completely closed when released.
–Make sure that there is no dirt or damage on the valve seat of
radiator cap negative-pressure valve.
–Make sure that the valve operates properly in the opening and
closing conditions.
Check radiator cap relief pressure using Tool.
–When connecting the radiator cap to the tester, apply water or
coolant to the cap seal surface.
–Replace the radiator cap if there is an abnormality in the nega-
tive-pressure valve, or if the open-valve pressure is outside of
the standard values.
Replace radiator cap if there it does not comply to specifications to the above three checks.
CAUTION:
When installing radiator cap, thoroughly wipe out the radiator filler neck to remove any waxy residue
or foreign material.
Checking RadiatorEBS00T7F
Check radiator for mud or clogging. If necessary, clean radiator as follows.
Be careful not to bend or damage radiator fins.
When radiator is cleaned without removal, remove all surrounding parts such as cooling fan, radiator
shroud and horns. Then tape harness and connectors to prevent water from entering.
1. Apply water by hose to the back side of the radiator core vertically downward.
2. Apply water again to all radiator core surface once per minute.
3. Stop washing if any stains no longer flow out from radiator.
4. Blow air into the back side of radiator core vertically downward.
Use compressed air lower than 490 kPa (4.9 bar, 5 kg/cm2 , 71 psi) and keep distance more than 30 cm
(11.8 in).
