Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR
BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER”

NLSC0001

The Supplemental Restraint System such as “AIR BAG” and “SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER” used along with
a seat belt, helps to reduce the risk or severity of injury to the driver and front passenger for certain types of
collision. The SRS system composition which is available to NISSAN MODEL V10 is as follows (The compo-
sition varies according to the destination and optional equipment.):

For a frontal collision
The Supplemental Restraint System consists of driver air bag module (located in the center of the steer-
ing wheel), front passenger air bag module (located on the instrument panel on passenger side), front seat
belt pre-tensioners, a diagnosis sensor unit, warning lamp, wiring harness and spiral cable.

For a side collision
The Supplemental Restraint System consists of front side air bag module (located in the outer side of front
seat), side air bag (satellite) sensor, diagnosis sensor unit (one of components of air bags for a frontal
collision), wiring harness, warning lamp (one of components of air bags for a frontal collision).

Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the RS 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 should be per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN dealer.

Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to per-
sonal injury caused by intentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air Bag
Module, see the RS section.

Do not use electrical test equipment on any circuit related to the SRS unless instructed to in this
Service Manual. Spiral cable and wiring harnesses covered with yellow insulation tape either just
before the harness connectors or for the complete harness are related to the SRS.

Wiring Diagrams and Trouble Diagnoses

NLSC0002

When you read wiring diagrams, refer to the following:

GI-11, “HOW TO READ WIRING DIAGRAMS”

EL-10, “POWER SUPPLY ROUTING” for power distribution circuit

When you perform trouble diagnoses, refer to the following:

GI-32, “HOW TO FOLLOW TEST GROUP IN TROUBLE DIAGNOSES”

How to Handle Battery

NLSC0003

CAUTION:

If it becomes necessary to start the engine with a booster
battery and jumper cables,
1)

Use a 12-volt booster battery.

After connecting battery cables, ensure that they are
tightly clamped to battery terminals for good contact.

Never add distilled water through the hole used to check
specific gravity.

METHODS OF PREVENTING OVER-DISCHARGE

NLSC0003S01

The following precautions must be taken to prevent over-discharg-
ing a battery.

The battery surface (particularly its top) should always be kept
clean and dry.

The terminal connections should be clean and tight.

At every routine maintenance, check the electrolyte level.
This also applies to batteries designated as “low maintenance”
and “maintenance-free”.

MEL041F

When the vehicle is not going to be used over a long period of
time, disconnect the negative battery terminal.

MEL042F

Check the charge condition of the battery.
Periodically check the specific gravity of the electrolyte. Keep
a close check on charge condition to prevent over-discharge.

CHECKING ELECTROLYTE LEVEL

NLSC0003S02

WARNING:

Do not allow battery fluid to come in contact with skin, eyes,
fabrics, or painted surfaces. After touching a battery, do not
touch or rub your eyes until you have thoroughly washed your
hands. If acid contacts eyes, skin or clothing, immediately
flush with water for 15 minutes and seek medical attention.

MEL043F

Remove the cell plug using a suitable tool.

Add distilled water up to the MAX level.

SEL709E

Sulphation

NLSC0003S0201

A battery will be completely discharged if it is left unattended
for a long time and the specific gravity will become less than
1.100. This may result in sulphation on the cell plates.
To determine if a battery has been “sulphated”, note its volt-
age and current when charging it. As shown in the figure, less
current and higher voltage are observed in the initial stage of
charging sulphated batteries.
A sulphated battery may sometimes be brought back into ser-
vice by means of a long, slow charge, 12 hours or more, fol-
lowed by a battery capacity test.

MEL042FA

SPECIFIC GRAVITY CHECK

NLSC0003S03

Read hydrometer and thermometer indications at eye level.

Convert into specific gravity at 20°C (68°F).

Example:

When electrolyte temperature is 35°C (95°F) and specific grav-
ity of electrolyte is 1.230, converted specific gravity at 20°C
(68°F) is 1.240.

When electrolyte temperature is 0°C (32°F) and specific grav-
ity of electrolyte is 1.210, converted specific gravity at 20°C
(68°F) is 1.196.

Check battery type and determine the specified current using the table shown above.

After starting charging, adjustment of charging current is not necessary.

CAUTION:

Do not use quick charge method on a battery whose specific gravity is less than 1.100.

Set initial charging current to value specified in Fig. 6. If charger is not capable of producing
specified current value, set its charging current as close to that value as possible.

Keep battery away from open flame while it is being charged.

When connecting charger, connect leads first, then turn on charger. Do not turn on charger first,
as this may cause a spark.

Be careful of a rise in battery temperature because a large current flow is required during quick-
charge operation.
If battery temperature rises above 60°C (140°F), stop charging. Always charge battery when its
temperature is below 60°C (140°F).

Do not exceed the charging time specified in Fig. 6, because charging battery over the charging
time can cause deterioration of the battery.
