Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000001716907
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 SR and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
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 for Brake SystemINFOID:0000000001716908
 Refill using recommended brake fluid. Refer to MA-19, "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 surfaces
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 connec-
tors of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) or the battery
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-26, "
Brake Burnishing" .

CHECKING BRAKE FLUID LEVEL
 Make sure the fluid level in the reservoir tank is within the standard
(between MAX and MIN lines).
 Visually check around the reservoir tank for fluid leakage.
 If fluid level is excessively low, check brake system for fluid leak-
age.
 Release parking brake lever and see if brake warning lamp goes
off. If not, check brake system for fluid leakage.
Drain and RefillINFOID:0000000001716920
CAUTION:
 Refill using recommended brake fluid. Refer to MA-19, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
 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, immediately wipe them with cloth and wash it away with water.
 Before working, disconnect connectors of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) or battery
cable from the negative terminal.
1. Connect a vinyl tube to bleed valve.
2. Depress the brake pedal, loosen the bleed valve, and gradually
remove the brake fluid.
3. Clean inside of reservoir tank, and refill with new brake fluid.
4. Loosen bleed valve, depress brake pedal slowly to full stroke
and then release it. Repeat the procedure every 2 or 3 seconds
until the new brake fluid comes out, then close the bleed valve
while depressing the brake pedal. Repeat the same procedure
for each wheel.
5. Bleed air. Refer to BR-8, "
Bleeding Brake System" .
Bleeding Brake SystemINFOID:0000000001716921
CAUTION:
 While bleeding, pay attention to master cylinder fluid level.
 Before working, disconnect connectors of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) or the battery
cable from the negative terminal.
1. Connect a vinyl tube to the rear right bleed valve.
2. Fully depress brake pedal 4 to 5 times.

NOTE:
LHD shown RHD similar.
CAUTION:
 All tubes and hoses must be free from excessive bending, twisting and pulling.
 Make sure there is no interference with other parts when turning steering both clockwise and coun-
terclockwise.
 Brake tubes and hoses are an important safety part. Always disassemble the parts and retighten
their fittings, if a brake fluid leak is detected. Replace applicable part with a new one, if damaged part
is detected.
 Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it way cause paint damage. If brake fluid is
splashed on painted surfaces of body, immediately wipe them with cloth and then wash it away with
water.
 Do not bend or twist brake hose sharply, or strongly pull it.
 When removing components, cover brake line connections so that dirt, dust, or other foreign mat-
ters do not get in.
 Refill using recommended brake fluid. Refer to MA-19, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
 Never reuse drained brake fluid.

Service Notice or PrecautionINFOID:0000000001375289
Use recommended brake fluid when adding fluid to the clutch reservoir tank. Refer to MA-19, "Fluids
and Lubricants".
Do not reuse fluid drained from clutch system.
Do not splash brake fluid on painted areas.
Use new brake fluid to clean or wash all parts of master cylinder and operating cylinder.
Do not 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 cylinder).
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.
WARNING:
After cleaning clutch disc, clean it with a dust collector. Do not use compressed air.

Precaution for Liquid GasketINFOID:0000000001527641
REMOVAL OF LIQUID GASKET SEALING
 After removing the bolts and nuts, separate the mating surface and
remove the sealant using Tool.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage the mating surfaces.
 In areas where the cutter is difficult to use, use a plastic hammer to
lightly tap (1) the cutter where the RTV Silicone Sealant is applied.
Use a plastic hammer to slide the cutter (2) by tapping on the side.
CAUTION:
If for some unavoidable reason a tool such as a flat-bladed
screwdriver is used, be careful not to damage the mating sur-
faces.
LIQUID GASKET APPLICATION PROCEDURE
1. Using a scraper, remove the old Silicone RTV Sealant adhering
to the gasket application surface and the mating surface.
 Remove the sealant completely from the groove of the gasket
application surface, bolts, and bolt holes.
2. Thoroughly clean the gasket application surface and the mating
surface and remove adhering moisture, grease and foreign
materials.
3. Attach the sealant tube to the tube presser.
Use Genuine Silicone RTV Sealant or equivalent. Refer to
GI-27, "
Recommended Chemical Products and Sealants".
4. Apply the sealant without breaks to the specified location using
Tool.
 If there is a groove for the sealant application, apply the seal-
ant to the groove.
 As for the bolt holes, normally apply the sealant inside the
holes. If specified, it should be applied outside the holes. Make
sure to read the text of this manual.
 Within five minutes of the sealant application, install the mat-
ing component.
 If the sealant protrudes, wipe it off immediately.
 Do not retighten after the installation.
 After 30 minutes or more have passed from the installation, fill
the engine with the specified oil and coolant. Refer to MA-19,
"Fluids and Lubricants".
