INFOID:0000000001516580
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. Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SR and SB section of
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 inflation, all maintenance must be performed by
an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal
injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the SR 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 har-
ness connectors.

Precaution Necessary for Steering Wheel Rotation After Battery Disconnect
INFOID:0000000001527631
NOTE:
This Procedure is applied only to models with Intelligent Key system and NATS (NISSAN ANTI-THEFT SYS-
TEM).
Remove and install all control units after disconnecting both battery cables with the ignition knob in the
″LOCK″ position.
Always use CONSULT-III to perform self-diagnosis as a part of each function inspection after finishing work.
If DTC is detected, perform trouble diagnosis according to self-diagnostic results.
For models equipped with the Intelligent Key system and NATS, an electrically controlled steering lock mech-
anism is adopted on the key cylinder.
For this reason, if the battery is disconnected or if the battery is discharged, the steering wheel will lock and
steering wheel rotation will become impossible.
If steering wheel rotation is required when battery power is interrupted, follow the procedure below before
starting the repair operation.
OPERATION PROCEDURE
1. Connect both battery cables.
NOTE:
Supply power using jumper cables if battery is discharged.
2. Use the Intelligent Key or mechanical key to turn the ignition switch to the ″ACC″ position. At this time, the
steering lock will be released.

< PRECAUTION >[K9K]
PRECAUTIONS
The system is very sensitive to contamination. The risks caused by the introduction of contamination are: Damage or destruction of the high pressure injection system and the engine,
Seizing or leaking of a component.
All After-Sales operations must be performed under very clean conditions. This means that no impurities (par-
ticles a few microns in size) get into the system during dismantling or into the circuits via the fuel unions.
The cleanliness principle must be applied from the filter to the injectors.
WHAT ARE THE SOURCES OF CONTAMINATION?
Contamination is caused by:
Metal or plastic chips,
Paint,
Fibres:
- Boxes,
- Brushes,
- Paper,
- Clothing,
- Cloths,
Foreign bodies such as hair,
Ambient air,
Etc.
IMPORTANT: It is not possible to clean the engine using a high pressure washer because of the risk of dam-
aging connections. In addition, moisture may collect in the connectors and create electrical connection mal-
functions.
INSTRUCTIONS TO BE FOLLOWED BEFORE ANY WORK IS CARRIED OUT ON THE INJECTION SYS-
TEM
Ensure that you have the plugs for the unions to be opened (bag of plugs sold at the Parts Stores - Nissan
part No.: 16609 00Q0B, Renault part No.: 77 01 476 857). Plugs are to be used once only. After use, they
must be thrown away (once used they are soiled and cleaning is not sufficient to make them reusable).
Unused plugs must be thrown away.
Ensure that you have hermetically resealable plastic bags for storing removed parts. Stored parts will there-
fore be less subject to the risk of impurities. The bags must be used only once, and after use they must be
thrown away.
Lint-free towelettes to be used for high pressure supply pump related service purpose. The use of a normal
cloth or paper for cleaning purposes is forbidden. These are not lint-free and may contaminate the fuel circuit
of the system. Each lint-free cloth should only be used once.
INSTRUCTIONS TO BE FOLLOWED BEFORE OPENING THE FUEL CIRCUIT
For each operation, use new thinner (used thinner contains impurities). Pour it into a clean receptacle.
For each operation, use a clean brush which is in good condition (the brush must not shed its bristles).
Use a brush and thinners to clean the connections to be opened.
Blow compressed air over the cleaned parts (tools, cleaned the same way as the parts, connections and
injection system zone). Check that no bristles remain adhered.
Wash your hands before and during the operation if necessary.
When wearing leather protective gloves, cover these with latex gloves.
INSTRUCTIONS TO BE FOLLOWED DURING THE OPERATION
As soon as the circuit is open, all openings must be plugged to prevent impurities from entering the system.
The plugs to be used are available from the Parts Stores - Nissan part No.: 16609 00Q0B, Renault part No.:
77 01 476 857. They must not, under any circumstances, be reused.
Close the hermetically sealed bag, even if it has to be reopened shortly afterwards. Ambient air carries con-
tamination.
All components of the injection system that are removed must be stored in a hermetically sealed plastic bag
once the plugs have been inserted.
The use of a brush, thinner, bellows, sponge or normal cloth is strictly forbidden once the circuit has been
opened. These items are likely to allow impurities to enter the system.
A new component replacing an old one must not be removed from its packaging until it is to be fitted to the
vehicle.
