PRECAUTIONS |
PFP:00001 |
A |
|
Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT |
|||
|
|||
BELT PRE-TENSIONER” |
AFS002KF |
|
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.
●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 SRS 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
harness connectors.
Precautions for Brake System |
AFS002KG |

E
BR
● Clean dust on front brake and rear brake with a vacuum dust collector. Do not blow with compressed air. ● Recommended fluid is brake fluid “DOT 3”.
● Do not reuse drained brake fluid.
● Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it may cause paint damage. If brake fluid is splashed on painted areas, wash it away with water immediately.
● Use clean brake fluid, to clean or wash all parts of master cylinder and disc brake caliper,etc.
● Do not use mineral oils such as gasoline or kerosene. They will ruin rubber parts of the hydraulic system.
● Use flare nut torque wrench when removing and installing brake tube.
● When installing brake piping, be sure to check torque.
● Before working, turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect electrical connectors of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit), VDC/TCS/ABS control unit or battery cable at negative terminal.
● Burnish the brake contact surfaces after refinishing or replacing rotors, after replacing pads, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage. Refer to BR-30, "BRAKE BURNISHING PROCE-
DURE" (front disc brake), BR-36, "BRAKE BURNISHING PRO- |
|
CEDURE" (rear disc brake). |
SBR686C |
|
WARNING:
Clean brake pads and shoes with a waste cloth, then wipe with a dust collector.

●Make sure that a brake fluid level in reservoir tank is within the standard (between MAX and MIN lines).
●Visually check around reservoir tank for fluid leakage.
●If the level is excessively low, check brake system for leakage.
●Release parking brake lever and see if brake warning lamp goes off. If not, check brake system for fluid leakage.

Drain and Refill |
AFS002KN |
CAUTION:
●Refill with new brake fluid “DOT 3”.
●Do not reuse drained brake fluid.
●Do not let brake fluid splash on painted surfaces of body. This might damage paint, so when
splashing it on the surfaces, immediately wipe off them and wash it away with water.
●Before servicing, disconnect electrical connectors of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit), VDC/TCS/ABS control unit or battery cable at negative terminal.
1.Connect a vinyl tube to bleed valve.
2.Depress brake pedal, loosen bleed valve, and gradually remove brake fluid.
BRA0007D
3.Clean inside of reservoir tank, and refill with new brake fluid.
4.Loosen bleed valve, depress brake pedal slowly to full stroke and then release it. Repeat the procedure every 2 or 3 seconds until the new brake fluid comes out, then close the bleed valve while depressing the pedal. Repeat the same work for each wheel.
5.Bleed air. Refer to BR-10, "Bleeding Brake System" .

●Turn ignition switch OFF and disconnect electrical connectors of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit), VDC/TCS/ABS control unit or battery cable at negative terminal before working.
1.Connect a vinyl tube to rear right brake caliper bleed valve.
2.Fully depress brake pedal 4 or 5 times.
3.With brake pedal depressed, loosen bleed valve to bleed air in brake line, and then tighten it immediately.
4.Repeat steps 2 and 3 until all of the air is out of the brake line.
5.Tighten the bleed valve to the specified torque. Refer to front disc brake: BR-25, "Components" , rear disc brake: BR-31, "Components" .
6.From step 1 to 5, with master cylinder reservoir tank filled at least half way, bleed air from brake hydraulic
line bleed valves in the following order:
Rear right brake→ Front left brake→ Rear left brake→ Front right brake

CAUTION:
●All brake hoses and tubes must be free from excessive bending, twisting and pulling.
●Make sure that there is no interference with other parts when turning steering both clockwise and counterclockwise.
●Brake tubes and hoses are important safety parts. Always disassemble the parts and retighten their fittings, if a brake fluid leak is detected. Replace applicable part with a new one, if damaged part is detected.
●Be careful not to splash brake fluid on painted areas; it may cause paint damage. If brake fluid is splashed on painted surfaces of body, immediately wipe off them and wash it away with water immediately.
●Cover the open end of brake pipes and hoses when disconnecting to prevent entrance of dirt.
●Refill with new brake fluid “DOT 3”.
●Do not reuse drained brake fluid.
