Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT 
PRE-TENSIONER"

INFOID:0000000009725687

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 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 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 performed by

an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.

• Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to personal

injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag

Module, see the SR section.

• 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 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 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 three minutes before performing any service.

Precautions for Drive Shaft

INFOID:0000000009177835

Observe the following precautions when disassembling and assembling drive shaft.

• Joint sub-assembly does not disassemble because it is non-overhaul parts.

• Perform work in a location which is as dust-free as possible.

• Before disassembling and assembling, clean the outside of parts.

• Prevention of the entry of foreign objects must be taken into account during disassembly of the service loca-

tion.

• Disassembled parts must be carefully reassembled in the correct order. If work is interrupted, a clean cover

must be placed over parts.

• Paper shop cloths must be used. Fabric shop cloths must not be used because of the danger of lint adhering

to parts.

• Disassembled parts (except for rubber parts) should be cleaned with kerosene which shall be removed by

blowing with air or wiping with paper shop cloths.
