PRECAUTIONS
Service Notice

Service Notice
¼ ¼ ¼ ¼ ¼

NLBT0001

When removing or installing various parts, place a cloth or padding onto the vehicle body to prevent scratches. Handle trim, molding, instruments, grille, etc. carefully during removing or installing. Be careful not to oil or damage them. Apply sealing compound where necessary when installing parts. When applying sealing compound, be careful that the sealing compound does not protrude from parts. When replacing any metal parts (for example body outer panel, members, etc.), be sure to take rust prevention measures.

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

NLBT0002

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 composition varies according to the destination and optional equipment.): ¼ For a frontal collision The Supplemental Restraint System consists of driver air bag module (located in the center of the steering 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. ¼ 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: ¼ 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 performed by an authorized NISSAN dealer. ¼ 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 RS section. ¼ 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.

Active Head Restraint

NLBT0032

The active head restraint system is designed so that the headrest instantaneously moves towards the front upper direction by utilizing the force at the seatback during a rear-end collision. As a result, the occupant's head is protected from being overextended, reducing the chance for neck injury as much as possible. Seat with active head restraint have the labels shown in figures at left.
SBT014A

EC FE CL MT

OPERATION OUTLINE

NLBT0032S01

When the seatback receives a sharp backward force during a rearend collision, the input plate moves with the link rotating center as a pivot. The headrest will then move towards the front upper direction with the center of the sliding roller as a pivot. As the backward force on the seat back is eliminated, spring tension returns the headrest to its original position.

NOTE: Before replacing a suspect part, carefully ensure it is the source of noise being experienced. 1. Check link to determine if coating film has peeled off to such an extent that substrate is visible. Check also to determine if link is the source of noise. If it is, replace it. 2. Visually check to determine if a sufficient amount of petroleum jelly has been applied to wire or rail groove. If not, add petroleum jelly as required. 3. Check wire for any damage or deterioration. If any damage is found, remove rear guide (refer to removal procedures, BT-50, for details), then replace wire.

After removing moldings, remove glass using piano wire or power cutting tool and an inflatable pump bag. WARNING: When cutting the glass from the vehicle, always wear safety glasses and heavy gloves to help prevent glass splinters from entering your eyes or cutting your hands.

Use a genuine Nissan Urethane Adhesive Kit or equivalent and follow the instructions furnished with it. ¼ While the urethane adhesive is curing, open a door window. This will prevent the glass from being forced out by passenger compartment air pressure when a door is closed. ¼ The molding must be installed securely so that it is in position and leaves no gap. ¼ Inform the customer that the vehicle should remain stationary until the urethane adhesive has completely cured (preferably 24 hours). Curing time varies with temperature and humidity. WARNING: ¼ Keep heat and open flames away as primers and adhesive are flammable. ¼ The materials contained in the kit are harmful if swallowed, and may irritate skin and eyes. Avoid contact with the skin and eyes. ¼ Use in an open, well ventilated location. Avoid breathing the vapors. They can be harmful if inhaled. If affected by vapor inhalation, immediately move to an area with fresh air. ¼ Driving the vehicle before the urethane adhesive has completely cured may affect the performance of the windshield in case of an accident. CAUTION: ¼ Do not use an adhesive which is past its usable term. Shelf life of this product is limited to six months after the date of manufacture. Carefully adhere to the expiration or manufacture date printed on the box. ¼ Keep primers and adhesive in a cool, dry place. Ideally, they should be stored in a refrigerator.

Repairing Water Leaks for Windshield

NLBT0023S0301

Leaks can be repaired without removing and reinstalling glass. If water is leaking between the urethane adhesive material and body or glass, determine the extent of leakage. This can be done by applying water to the windshield area while pushing glass outward. To stop the leak, apply primer (if necessary) and then urethane adhesive to the leak point.

All dimensions indicated in figures are actual ones. When using a tracking gauge, adjust both pointers to equal length. Then check the pointers and gauge itself to make sure there is no free play. When a measuring tape is used, check to be sure there is no elongation, twisting or bending. Measurements should be taken at the center of the mounting holes. An asterisk (*) following the value at the measuring point indicates that the measuring point on the other side is symmetrically the same value. The coordinates of the measurement points are the distances measured from the standard line of "X", "Y" and "Z".
