Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER”
ECS00GVW
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.
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.

RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS
Revision: June 20062007 Versa
SAE Viscosity NumberELS001YH
SAE 5W-30 viscosity oil is preferred for all temperatures. SAE 10W-
30 and 10W-40 viscosity oil may be used if the ambient temperature
is above −18°C (0°F).
NOTE:
Use of 5W-30 viscosity oil will increase fuel economy.
Anti-freeze Coolant Mixture RatioELS001YI
The engine cooling system is filled at the factory with a high-quality, long life, year-round, anti-freeze coolant
solution. The anti-freeze solution contains rust and corrosion inhibitors. Therefore, additional cooling system
additives are not necessary.
CAUTION:
When adding or replacing coolant, be sure to use only a Genuine NISSAN Long Life Anti-Freeze
coolant or equivalent with the proper mixture ratio.
The use of other types of coolant solutions may damage the engine cooling system.

Service NoticeEIS0097C
When removing or installing various parts, place a cloth or padding onto the vehicle body to prevent
scratches.
Handle trim, molding instruments, grille, etc. carefully during removing or installing. Be careful not to oil or
damage them.
Apply sealing compound where necessary when installing parts.
When applying sealing compound, be careful that the sealing compound does not protrude from parts.
When replacing any metal parts (for example body outer panel, member, etc.), be sure to take rust pre-
vention measures.
Precautions EIS0097D
When removing or disassembling any part, be careful not to damage or deform it. Protect parts which may
get in the way with cloth.
When removing parts with a screwdriver or other tool, protect parts by wrapping tools with vinyl or tape.
Keep removed parts protected with cloth.
If a clip is deformed or damaged, replace it.
If an unreusable part is removed, replace it with a new one.
Tighten bolts and nuts firmly to the specified torque.
After re-assembly has been completed, make sure each part functions correctly.
Remove stains in the following way.
Water-soluble stains:
Dip a soft cloth in warm water, and then squeeze it tightly. After wiping the stain, wipe with a soft dry cloth.
Oil stain:
Dissolve a synthetic detergent in warm water (density of 2 to 3% or less), dip the cloth, then clean off the stain
with the cloth. Next, dip the cloth in fresh water and squeeze it tightly. Then clean off the detergent completely.
Then wipe the area with a soft dry cloth.
Do not use any organic solvent, such as thinner or benzine.
