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. Information necessary to service the system safely is included in the SR and SB section 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 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.

4. Remove the adjusting hole plug from the disc brake rotor. Turn
the adjuster (1) in the direction (A) as shown using a suitable
tool until the disc rotor is locked.
5. Turn back the adjuster 7 notches from the locked position.
6. Rotate the disc brake rotor to check that there is no drag. Install
the adjusting hole plug.
7. Adjust the cable with the following procedure.
a. Operate the parking brake pedal with a force of 490 N (50.0 kg-f,
110.2 lb-f) for more than 30 minutes.
b. Adjust the parking brake pedal stroke by turning the adjusting JPFIB0014ZZ
nut using a suitable tool.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse the adjusting nut if the nut is removed.
c. Operate the parking brake pedal with a force of 196 N (20.0 kg-f, 44.1 lb-f). Check that the pedal stroke is
within the specified number of notches. (Check it by listening to the clicks of the ratchet.)
PB
1. Adjust parking brake pedal stroke. Refer to PB-4, "Inspection and Adjustment".
2. Perform parking brake break-in (drag on) operation by driving vehicle under the following conditions:
• Drive forward
• Vehicle speed: Approx. 40 km/h (25 MPH) set (constant and forward)
• Parking brake operating force: Approx. 160 +30.0 N (16.3 +3.1 kg-f, 36.0 +6.7 lb-f)
• Time: Approx. 10 +5.0 seconds.
CAUTION:
To prevent lining from getting too hot, allow a cool off period of approximately 5 minutes after
every break-in operation.
3. After the break-in procedure, check parking pedal stroke of parking brake.
CAUTION:
If it is out of the specification, adjust again. Refer to PB-4, "Inspection and Adjustment".
ADJUSTMENT AFTER INSTALLATION
1. Adjust the parking brake pedal stroke. Refer to PB-4, "Inspection and Adjustment".
2. Rotate the disc brake rotor with the parking brake pedal released and check that there is no drag.
CAUTION:
If any drag is found, verify the parking brake components are installed and adjusted correctly.
