PRECAUTIONSPFP:00001
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
EFS006NT
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.
WA RN ING:

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 SystemEFS006J2

Refill using recommended brake fluid. Refer to MA-11, "RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS" .

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 it off with cloth and then wash it away with water.

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

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 a brake tube and use a
flare nut torque wrench when installing a brake tube.

When installing brake tubes and hoses, be sure to check torque.

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.

Burnish the new braking surfaces after refinishing or replacing
drums or rotors, after replacing pads or linings, or if a soft pedal
occurs at very low mileage. Refer toBR-29, "
Brake Burnishing
Procedure" .SBR6 86 C

5. While pushing primary piston, remove piston stopper through
secondary tank boss hole in the cylinder body.
6. Remove snap ring with pushing primary piston.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to pop out piston.
7. Holding rod of primary piston, remove primary piston assembly,
plate and guide assembly by pulling straight to prevent piston
cup from being caught by the inner wall of cylinder.
8. Remove plate and guide assembly from primary piston.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage rod from the inner wall of plate.
9. Tap flange using a soft block such as wood, and carefully pull
secondary piston assembly straight out to prevent cylinder inner
wall from being damaged.
INSPECTION AFTER DISASSEMBLY
Cylinder Body

Check the inner wall of cylinder for damage, wear, corrosion, and pin holes. Replace cylinder body if nec-
essary.
ASSEMBLY
CAUTION:

Never use mineral oils such as kerosene or gasoline during the cleaning and assembly processes.

Make sure that there is no foreign material such as dirt and dust on the inner wall of cylinder, pis-
ton, and piston cup. Be careful not to damage parts with a service tool when assembling.

Do not drop parts. If a part is dropped, do not use it.
1. Apply brake fluid to the inner wall of cylinder body, primary pis-
ton assembly and secondary piston assembly.
2. Insert secondary piston and primary piston assembly into cylin-
der body in this order.
CAUTION:

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.

the circumference of clutch disc. If outside the specification,
replace clutch disc.

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).
