PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000009951570
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. Information necessary to service t he system safely is included in the SR and SB section of
this Service Manual.
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 SR 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 three mi nutes before performing any service.
Precaution for WorkINFOID:0000000009461288
• When removing or disassembling each component, be ca reful not to damage or deform it. If a component
may be subject to interference, be sure to protect it with a shop cloth.
• When removing (disengaging) components with a screwdriver or similar tool, be sure to wrap the component with a shop cloth or vinyl tape to protect it.
• Protect the removed parts with a shop cloth and prevent them from being dropped.
• Replace a deformed or damaged clip.
• If a part is specified as a non-reusabl e part, always replace it with a new one.
• Be sure to tighten bolts and nuts securely to the specified torque.
• After installation is complete, be sure to check that each part works properly.
• Follow the steps below to clean components:
- Water soluble dirt:
• Dip a soft cloth into lukewarm water, wring the water out of the cloth and wipe the dirty area.
• Then rub with a soft, dry cloth.
-Oily dirt:
• Dip a soft cloth into lukewarm water with mild detergent (concentration: within 2 to 3%) and wipe the dirty area.
• Then dip a cloth into fresh water, wring the water out of the cloth and wipe the detergent off.
• Then rub with a soft, dry cloth.
- Do not use organic solvent such as thinner, benzene, alcohol or gasoline.
- For genuine leather seats, use a genuine leather seat cleaner.

Component Function
BCM Supplies the power supply to moonroof motor assembly.
Moonroof switch Transmits tilt up/down & slides open/close operation signal to moonroof motor assembly.
Moonroof mo tor assembly The moonroof motor and CPU are integrated into one unit that enables tilt up/down & slide open/
close by moonroof switch operation.
Front door switch Detects door open/close condition and transmits to BCM.
Combination meter Transmits vehicle speed signal to moonroof motor assembly.

MOONROOF SYSTEM
INPUT/OUTPUT SIGNAL CHART
MOONROOF OPERATION
• Moonroof motor assembly operates with the power supply that is output from BCM while ignition switch isON or retained power is operating.
• Tilt up/ down & slide open/ close signals from moonroof switch enables moonroof motor to move arbitrarily.
• Moonroof motor assembly receives a vehicle speed signal from combination meter and controls the moon- roof motor torque of tilt-down at the time of high speed operation.
AUTO OPERATION
Moonroof AUTO feature makes it possible to slide open and slide close or tilt up and tilt down the moonroof
without holding the moonroof switch in the slide open/tilt down or slide close/tilt up position.
RETAINED POWER OPERATION
• Retained power operation is an additional power supply function that enables the moonroof system to oper-
ate during the first 45 seconds that the ignition switch is cycled from the ON position to the OFF position.
Retained power function cancel conditions• Front door CLOSE (door switch OFF)→OPEN (door switch ON).

• When ignition switch is ON again.
• When timer time passes. (45 seconds)
ANTI-PINCH FUNCTION
The CPU of moonroof motor assembly monitors t he moonroof motor operation and the moonroof position
(fully-closed or other) by the signals from moonroof motor.
When moonroof motor detects an interruption during t he following slide close and tilt down operation, moon-
roof switch controls the motor for open and the moonroof will operate until full up position (when tilt down oper-
ates) or 100 mm (3.94 in) or more in an open direction (when slide close operates):
• Close operation and tilt down when ignition switch is in the “ON” position
