Nickel Metal Hydride Battery ReplacementINFOID:0000000003531492
CONSULT-II contains a nickel metal hydride battery. When replacing the battery obey the following:
WARNING:
Replace the nickel metal hydride battery with Genuine CONSULT-II battery only. Use of another bat-
tery may present a risk of fire or explosion. The battery may present a fire or chemical burn hazard
ifmistreated. Do not recharge, disassemble or dispose of in fire.
Keep the battery out of reach of children and discard used battery conforming to the local regulations.
Checking EquipmentINFOID:0000000003531493
When ordering the below equipment, contact your NISSAN distributor.
CAUTION:
• Previous CONSULT-II “I” and “Y” DLC-I and DLC-II cables should NOT be used anymore because
their DDL connector pins can be damaged during cable swapping.
• 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.
• If CONSULT-II CONVERTER is not connected with CONSULT-II, the vehicle enters “FAIL SAFE
MODE” which will “LIGHT UP the HEAD LIGHT” and /or “COOLING FAN ROTATING” when CONSULT-
II is started.
NOTE:
• The CONSULT-II must be used in conjunction with a program card.
CONSULT-II does not require loading (Initialization) procedure.
• Be sure the CONSULT-II is turned OFF before installing or removing a program card.
CONSULT-II Start ProcedureINFOID:0000000003531494
NOTE:
Turning ignition switch off when performing CAN diagnosis could cause CAN memory to be erased.
1. Connect CONSULT-II and CONSULT-II CONVERTER to the
data link connector.

circuits (CAN lines) from DLC pins 6 and 14 as well as the DDL2 circuit (K-line) from DLC pin 7 may be con-
nected to more than one system. A short in a DDL circuit connected to a control unit in one system may affect
CONSULT-II access to other systems.

WARNING:
• Never get under the vehicle while it is supported only by the jack. Always use safety stands to sup-
port the frame when you have to get under the vehicle.
• Place wheel chocks at both front and back of the wheels on the ground.
CAUTION:
• All applicable State or Provincial (in Canada) laws and local laws regarding the towing operation
must be obeyed.
• It is necessary to use proper towing equipment to avoid possible damage during towing operation.
Towing is in accordance with Towing Procedure Manual at dealer.
• Always attach safety chains before towing.
• When towing, make sure that the transmission, steering system and powertrain are in good order. If
any unit is damaged, dollies must be used.
• Never tow an automatic transmission model from the rear
(i.e., backward) with four wheels on the ground as this may
cause serious and expensive damage to the transmission.
2WD MODELS
INFINITI does not recommend towing automatic transmission
equipped vehicles with the drive wheels on the ground.
CAUTION:
• When towing with the front wheels on the ground: Turn the
ignition key to the OFF position and move the transmission
selector lever to N (neutral) position, turn the ignition key to
OFF position and secure the steering wheel in a straight
ahead position with a rope or similar device. Never place the
ignition key in the LOCK position. This will result in damage
to the steering lock mechanism.
