PRECAUTIONS

PRECAUTIONS PFP:00001
A
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER” EFS0022M

The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”, used along B
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 SRS and SB section of
this Service Manual. C
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 per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer. D
● Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to per-
sonal injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air
Bag Module, see the SRS section. E
● 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 harness connec-
tors. BR
Precautions for Brake System EFS0022N

● Recommended fluid is brake fluid “DOT 3”. G


● Never reuse drained brake fluid.
● Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas.
● To clean or wash all parts of master cylinder, disc brake cal- H
iper and wheel cylinder, use clean brake fluid.
● Never use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene. They
will ruin rubber parts of the hydraulic system. I
● Use flare nut wrench when removing and installing brake
tube.
● Always torque brake lines when installing. SBR686C J
● Burnish the brake contact surfaces after refinishing or
replacing drums or rotors, after replacing pads or linings, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mile-
age. K
Refer to BR-7, "Brake Burnishing Procedure".
WARNING:
● Clean brake pads and shoes with a waste cloth, then wipe with a dust collector. L
Wiring Diagrams and Trouble Diagnosis EFS0022O

When you read wiring diagrams, refer to the following:


M
● GI-13, "How to Read Wiring Diagrams"
● PG-3, "POWER SUPPLY ROUTING"
When you perform trouble diagnosis, refer to the following:
● GI-10, "HOW TO FOLLOW TEST GROUPS IN TROUBLE DIAGNOSES"
● GI-26, "How to Perform Efficient Diagnosis for an Electrical Incident"
