PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000005777024
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 severi ty 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 w hether 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.
WARNING:
• To avoid rendering the SRS inoper ative, 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 in correct removal and installation of the SRS can lead to personal
injury caused by unintentional act ivation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the SRS section.
• Do not use electrical test equipm ent on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harnesses can be identi fied by yellow and/or orange harnesses or har-
ness connectors.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING POWER TOOLS (AIR OR ELECTRIC) AND HAMMERS
WARNING:
• When working near the Airbag Diagnosis Sensor Un it or other Airbag System sensors with the Igni-
tion ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or el ectric power tools or strike near the sensor(s) with a
hammer. Heavy vibration could activate the sensor( s) and deploy the air bag(s), possibly causing
serious injury.
• When using air or electric power tools or hammers, always switch the Ignition OFF, disconnect the battery, and wait at least 3 minutes before performing any service.
Precaution Necessary for Steering Wheel Rotation After Battery Disconnect
INFOID:0000000005716034
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 disconnecti ng 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.
3. Disconnect both battery cables. The steering lock will remain released and the steering wheel can be
rotated.
4. Perform the necessary repair operation.

PRECAUTIONS
5. When the repair work is completed, return the ignition switch to the
″LOCK ″ position before connecting
the battery cables. (At this time, the steering lock mechanism will engage.)
6. Perform a self-diagnosis check of a ll control units using CONSULT-III.
Precaution for Procedure without Cowl Top CoverINFOID:0000000005716035
When performing the procedure after removing cowl top cover, cover
the lower end of windshield with urethane, etc.
Service Notice or PrecautionINFOID:0000000005716036
•Use recommended brake fluid when adding flui d to the clutch reservoir tank. Refer to MA-14.
• 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 part s of master cylinder and operating cylinder.
• Never use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene. It will ruin the rubber parts of the hydraulic sys-
tem.
• 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.

• If transaxle assembly is removed from the vehicle, always replace CSC (Concentric Slave Cylinder).
Installed CSC returns to the original position when removing transaxle assembly. Dust on clutch disc sliding
parts may damage CSC seal, and may cause clutch fluid leakage.
• Do not reuse transaxle oil.
• Drain, fill and check transaxle oil with the vehicle on level surface.
• During removal or installation, keep inside of transaxle clear of dust or dirt.
• Check for the correct installation orientation prior to removal or disassembly. If matching marks are required, be certain they do not interfere with the function of the parts they are applied to.
• In principle, tighten bolts or nuts gradually in several steps working diagonally from inside to outside. If tight- ening sequence is specified, follow it.
• Be careful not to damage the sliding surfaces and mating surfaces of parts.
