< PRECAUTION >
PRECAUTIONS
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 SR 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 har-
ness connectors.
PRECAUTIONS WHEN USING POWER TOOLS (AIR OR ELECTRIC) AND HAMMERS
WARNING:
When working near the Airbag Diagnosis Sensor Unit or other Airbag System sensors with the Igni-
tion ON or engine running, DO NOT use air or electric power tools or strike near the sensor(s) with a
hammer. Heavy vibration could activate the sensor(s) and deploy the air bag(s), possibly causing
serious injury.
When using air or electric power tools or hammers, always switch the Ignition OFF, disconnect the
battery and wait at least three minutes before performing any service.
High Voltage Precautions INFOID:0000000009347463
DANGER:
Since hybrid vehicles and electric vehicles contain a high voltage battery, there is the risk of
electric shock, electric leakage, or similar accidents if the high voltage component and vehicle are
handled incorrectly. Be sure to follow the correct work procedures when performing inspection and
maintenance.
WARNING:
Be sure to remove the service plug in order to disconnect the high voltage circuits before perform-
ing inspection or maintenance of high voltage system harnesses and parts.
The removed service plug must always be carried in a pocket of the responsible worker or placed in
the tool box during the procedure to prevent the plug from being connected by mistake.
Be sure to wear insulated protective equipment before beginning work on the high voltage system.
Never allow workers other than the responsible person to touch the vehicle containing high voltage
parts. To keep others from touching the high voltage parts, these parts must be covered with an insu-
lating sheet except when using them.
CAUTION:
Never bring the vehicle into the READY status with the service plug removed unless otherwise
instructed in the Service Manual. A malfunction may occur if this is not observed.
HIGH VOLTAGE HARNESS AND EQUIPMENT IDENTIFICATION
All the high voltage harnesses and connectors are orange. The Li-ion battery and other high voltage devices
include an orange high voltage label. Never touch these harnesses and high voltage parts.
HANDLING OF HIGH VOLTAGE HARNESS AND TERMINALS
Immediately insulate disconnected high voltage connectors and terminals with insulating tape.
REGULATIONS ON WORKERS WITH MEDICAL ELECTRONICS
WARNING:
The vehicle contains parts that contain powerful magnets. If a person who is wearing a heart pace-
maker or other medical device is close to these parts, the medical device may be affected by the mag-
nets. Such persons must not perform work on the vehicle.
PROHIBITED ITEMS TO CARRY DURING THE WORK
Hybrid vehicles and electric vehicles contain parts with high voltage and intense magnetic force. Never carry
metal products and magnetic recording media (e.g. cash card, prepaid card) to repair/inspect high voltage
parts. If this is not observed, the metal products may create a risk of short circuit and the magnetic recording
media may lose their magnetic recording.
