Precaution for Supplemental Restraint S
ystem (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000006223495
The Supplemental Restraint System such as “A IR 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 AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT” of this
Service Manual.
WARNING:
 To avoid rendering the SRS inopera tive, which could increase the risk of personal injury or death in
the event of a collision that would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be performed by
an authorized NISS AN/INFINITI dealer.
 Improper maintenance, including in correct removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal
injury caused by unintent ional activation of the system. For re moval of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the “SRS AIR BAG”.
 Do not use electrical test equipmen t 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 Air Bag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Air Bag System sensors with the ignition ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electric 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 minu tes before performing any service.
Precautions For Harness RepairINFOID:0000000006223496
ITS communication uses a twisted pair line. Be careful when repairing it.
 Solder the repaired area and wrap tape around the soldered area.
NOTE:
A fray of twisted lines must be within 110 mm (4.33 in).

 Bypass connection is never allowed at the repaired area. NOTE:
Bypass connection may cause ITS communication error. The
spliced wire becomes separated and t he characteristics of twisted
line are lost.
DCA System ServiceINFOID:0000000006223497
CAUTION:
 Never look straight into th e laser beam discharger when adjusting laser beam aiming.
 Turn the MAIN switch OFF in conditions similar to driving, such as free rollers or a chassis dyna-
mometer.
 Never use the ICC sensor removed from vehicle. Never disassemble or remodel.
 Erase DTC when replacing parts of DCA system, then check the operation of DCA system after
adjusting laser beam aiming if necessary.

SYSTEM
FUNCTION DESCRIPTION
When a vehicle is detected ahead The vehicle ahead detection indicator comes ON.
When vehicle approaches a vehicle ahead If the driver is not depressing the accelerator pedal, t
he system activates the brakes to decelerate smoothly
as necessary. If the vehicle ahead comes to a stop, the vehicle decelerates to a standstill within the limita-
tions of the system.
 If the driver is depressing the accelerator pedal, the system moves the accelerator pedal upward to assist
the driver to release the accelerator pedal.
When brake operation by driver is required The system alerts the driver by a warning chime and blinking the vehicle ahead detection indicator. If the
driver is depressing the accelerator pedal after the wa rning, the system moves the accelerator pedal upward
to assist the driver to switch to the brake pedal.
CAUTION:
If the vehicle ahead comes to a stan dstill, the vehicle decelerates to a standstill within the limitations
of the system. The system will release brake control wi th a warning chime once it judges the vehicle is
at a standstill. To prevent the vehicle from moving , the driver must depress the brake pedal. [The sys-
tem will resume control automatically once the system reaches 5 km/h (3 MPH)].
NOTE:
 Depending on the position of the accelerator pedal, the system may not be able to assist the driver to
release the accelerator pedal appropriately.
 When the driver depresses the accelerator pedal even further while the system is moving the acce\
lerator pedal upward, the accelerator pedal control will be canceled.
 When the driver is depressing the accelerator pedal, the brake control by the system is not operated.
 When the driver is depressing the brake pedal, neither the brake control nor the alert by the system oper-
ates.
 When the ICC system is set, the DCA system will be canceled.
OPERATION DESCRIPTION
ICC sensor calculates a distance from a vehicle ahead and a relative speed to transmit the ICC sensor signal
to the ADAS control unit via ITS communication. Based on the received signal, the ADAS control unit trans-
mits a control signal to the accelerator pedal actuator via ITS communication and to the ABS actuator control
unit (control unit) via CAN communication.

Operation Condition
ADAS control unit performs the control when the following conditions are satisfied.
 When the DCA system setting on the navigation screen is ON.
 When the dynamic driver assistance switch is turned to ON.
 When the brake pedal is not depressed.
 When the vehicle speed is above approximately 5 km/h (3 MPH).
 When the vehicle ahead is detected.
 When the ICC system is not set.
No Operation Condition
The ADAS control unit is not operat e when the system is under any condi tions of the no operation condition.
 When the brake pedal depressed.
 When the ICC system is set.
 When the system judges that the vehicle co mes to a standstill by the system control.
 When the vehicle ahead is not detected.
Operation Cancellation Condition
The ADAS control unit cancels the operation when the syst em is under any conditions of the operation cancel-
lation condition.
 When the dynamic driver assistance switch is turned to OFF.
 When the system malfunction occurs.
 When ABS or VDC (including the TCS) operates.
 When the VDC is turned OFF.
 When the SNOW mode switch is turned ON.
 When the 4WD shift switch is turned to not AUTO position.
 When driving into a strong light (i.e., sunlight).
 When the ICC sensor body window is dirty and the measurement of the distance between the vehicles
becomes difficult.
Operation At The Driver Operation
Give priority to the driver operation in the following situation.
When vehicle approaches a vehicle ahead If the driver is not depressing the acceler-
ator pedal, the system activates the
brakes to decelerate smoothly as neces-
sary
If the driver is depressing the accelerator
pedal, the system moves the accelerator
pedal upward to assist the driver to re-
lease the accelerator pedal
When brake operation by driver is required The system alerts the driver by a warning
chime and blinking the vehicle ahead de-
tection indicator. If the driver is depressing
the accelerator pedal after the warning,
the system moves the accelerator pedal
upward to assist the driver to switch to the
brake pedal
Deceleration control It transmits the brake fluid
pressure control signal to the ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) via
CAN communication and performs the brake control
Accelerator pedal actuation
control It transmits the accelerator pedal feedback force control signal to the accelerator pedal actuator via ITS
communication and controls the accelerator pedal in the upward directionJSOIA0222ZZ
