PRECAUTIONS

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. This system includes seat belt switch inputs and dual stage front air bag modules. The SRS system uses the seat belt switches to determine the front air bag deployment, and may only deploy one front air bag, depending on the severity of a collision and whether the front occupants are belted or unbelted.
Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the “SRS AIRBAG” and “SEAT BELT” 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 “SRS AIRBAG”.
  
• Never 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.

• In the Bilstein DampTronic system, when CONSULT-III active test is performed, a DTC may be detected, therefore always erase the malfunction history after the operation is completed.
• In the Bilstein DampTronic system, because it is difficult to distinguish a sensor malfunction from normal operation when the vehicle turns sharply such as spin turning, turning while accelerating, or drift driving, or when CONSULT-III is connected to the vehicle, the vehicle enters the fail-safe status and a DTC is stored once. If the normal operation is restored later, it is not a malfunction. At that time, erase the self-diagnosis memory. Perform "Diagnosis Procedure" Work Flow (GT-R certified NISSAN dealer) if the normal condition is not restored.
• When disconnecting the harness connector from E-SUS control unit, disconnect it only after checking that the lock lever on the harness connector is opened.

■ CAUTION ■

After finishing servicing, check that all the tools and waste are stored in a customary place.
