Manual Description
(SRS) "AIR BAG" and "SEAT BELT PRE-TENSIONER" 2, precaution Necessary for Steering Wheel Rotation After Battery Disconnect 2, precaution for Working with HFC-134a (R-134a) 3, hEATER & COOLING UNIT ASSEMBLY 17.

Removal and Installation Front Evaporator21, removal and Installation Rear Evaporator22, removal and Installation Rear Expansion, precaution for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) "AIR BAG" "SEAT BELT.

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 certain, 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 belted unbelted.

Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SR and SB section Service Manual, to avoid rendering the SRS inoperative, which could increase the risk of personal injury death, the event of a collision which would result in air bag inflation, all maintenance must be performed by, improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead personal.

Injury caused by unintentional activation of the system, pRECAUTIONS WHEN USING POWER TOOLS (AIR OR ELECTRIC) AND HAMMERS, when working near the Airbag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Airbag System sensors with the Ignition ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electric power tools or strike near sensor(s) with, when using air or electric power tools or hammers, always switch the Ignition OFF, disconnect.

Battery, and wait at least 3 minutes before performing any service, precaution Necessary for Steering Wheel Rotation After Battery Disconnect, this Procedure is applied only to models with Intelligent Key system and NATS (NISSAN ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM), remove and install all control units after disconnecting both battery cables with the ignition knob.

Always use CONSULT to perform self-diagnosis as a part of each function inspection after finishing work, dTC is detected, perform trouble diagnosis according self-diagnostic results, for models equipped with the Intelligent Key system and NATS, an electrically controlled steering lock mechanism is adopted key cylinder, for this reason, if the battery is disconnected or if the battery is discharged, the steering wheel will lock.

Steering wheel rotation will become impossible, if steering wheel rotation is required when battery power is interrupted, follow procedure below before, supply power using jumper cables battery discharged, precaution for Working with HFC-134a (R-134a).

Refrigerant and HFC-134a (R-134a) refrigerant are not compatible, are mixed compressor failure is likely to occur, use only specified oil for the HFC-134a (R-134a) A/C system and HFC-134a (R-134a) components, oil other than that specified is used, compressor failure likely occur.

The specified HFC-134a (R-134a) oil rapidly absorbs moisture from atmosphere, - When removing refrigerant components from a vehicle, immediately cap (seal) component, minimize the entry of moisture atmosphere, - When installing refrigerant components to a vehicle, do not remove the caps (unseal) until just.

To minimize the entry moisture into system, - Only use the specified oil from a sealed container, proper sealing, oil will become moisture saturated and should not be used, - Avoid breathing A/C refrigerant and oil vapor or mist.

Remove from the A/C system using certified service equipment meeting requirements of SAE J2210 [HFC-134a (R-134a) recycling equipment], or SAE J2209 [HFC-134a (R-134a), when removing or disassembling each component, be careful not to damage or deform it, may be subject to interference, be sure to protect it with shop cloth, when removing (disengaging) components with a screwdriver or similar tool, be sure wrap component.

With a shop cloth or vinyl tape protect it, protect the removed parts with a shop cloth and prevent them being dropped, replace a deformed damaged clip, be sure to tighten bolts and nuts securely specified torque.

After installation is complete, be sure to check that each part works properly, follow the steps below clean components, - Water soluble dirt: Dip a soft cloth into lukewarm water, and wring the water out of the cloth wipe dirty.
