PRECAUTIONS

Precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER"
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 "SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM" and "SEAT BELTS" 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 "SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM".
^ 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.


Precaution





^ Before connecting or disconnecting the BCM harness connector, turn ignition switch "OFF" and disconnect the battery cable from the negative terminal. Battery voltage is applied to BCM even if ignition switch is turned "OFF".





^ When connecting or disconnecting pin connectors into or from BCM, take care not to damage pin terminals (bend or break).
When connecting pin connectors make sure that there are not any bends or breaks on BCM pin terminals.





^ Before replacing BCM, perform control unit input/output signal inspection and make sure whether BCM functions properly or not. Refer to WT-17, "Control Unit Input/Output Signal Standard".
