Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT
PRE-TENSIONER"
INFOID:0000000012432210
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 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 inopera tive, 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 unintent ional activation of the system. For re moval of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the SR section.
• Do not use electrical test equipmen t on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. SRS wiring harn esses can be identified 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 Unit or other Airbag System sensors with the Igni-
tion ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electri c 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 minutes before performing any service.
General PrecautionsINFOID:0000000012432211
WARNING:
After cleaning clutch disc, wipe it with a dust collector. Do not use compressed air.
CAUTION:
• Always use recommended clutch fluid. Refer to MA-11, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
• Do not reuse drained clutch fluid.
• Keep painted surface on the body and other parts free of clutch fluid. If fluid spills, wipe up immedi-
ately and wash the affected area with water.
• Do not use mineral oils, such as gasoline or kerosen e. It will ruin the rubber parts of the hydraulic
system.
• Do not reuse CSC (Concentric Slave Cylinder). CS C slides back to the original position every time
when removing transaxle assembly. At this time, dust on the sliding parts may damage the seal of
CSC and may cause clutch fluid leakage. Refer to CL-17, "
Removal and Installation".
• Do not disassemble clutch master cylinder and CSC.

1. Using suitable tool (A), remove old liquid gasket adhering to the
liquid gasket application surface and the mating surface.
• Remove liquid gasket completely from the groove of the liquidgasket application surface, mounting 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 liquid gasket tube to the suitable tool. Use Genuine Silicone RTV Sealant, or equivalent. Refer to
GI-22, "
Recommended Chemical Products and Sealants".
4. Apply liquid gasket without gaps to the specified location accord- ing to the specified dimensions.
• If there is a groove for liquid gasket application, apply liquid
gasket to the groove.
• As for bolt holes (B), normally apply liquid gasket inside the holes. Occasionally, it should be applied outside the holes.
Check to read the text of this manual.
• Within five minutes of liquid gasket application, install the mat- ing component.
• If liquid gasket protrudes, wipe it off immediately.
• Do not retighten mounting bolts or nuts after the installation.
• After 30 minutes or more have passed from the installation, fill engine oil and engine coolant.
CAUTION:
If there are specific instructions in the procedures contained in this manual concerning liquid gas-
ket application, observe them.

2. Apply a continuous bead of liquid gasket (A) with a tube presser
as shown.
Use Genuine Silicone RTV S ealant or equivalent. Refer
to GI-22, "
Recommended Chemical Products and Sealants"
CAUTION:
• Installation should be done within 5 minutes after apply-
ing liquid gasket.
• Do not fill the engine with oil for at least 30 minutes after
the components are installed to allow the sealant to cure.
3. Tighten bolts in numerical order as shown.
4. Install oil pan drain plug. CAUTION:
• Do not reuse drain plug washer.
• Refer to exploded view installation di rection of drain plug washer. Refer to EM-34
.
5. Refill the engine with engine oil. Refer to LU-8, "
Refilling".
INSPECTION AFTER INSTALLATION
• Before starting engine, check oil/fluid levels, including engine coolant and engine oil. If less than required
quantity, fill to the specified level. Refer to MA-11, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
• Use procedure below to check for fuel leakage.
• Turn ignition switch ON (with engine stopped). With fuel pressure applied to fuel piping, check for fuel leak- age at connection points.
• Start engine. With engine speed increased, che ck again for fuel leakage at connection points.
• Run engine to check for unusual noise and vibration. NOTE:
If hydraulic pressure inside timing chain tensioner drops after removal and installation, slack in the guide
may generate a pounding noise during and just after engine start. However, this is normal. Noise will stop
after hydraulic pressure rises.
• Warm up engine thoroughly to make sure there is no leakage of fuel, exhaust gas, or any oils/fluids including engine oil and engine coolant.
• Bleed air from passages in lines and hoses, such as in cooling system.
• After cooling down engine, again check oil/fluid levels including engine oil and engine coolant. Refill to spec-
ified level, if necessary.
