 PRECAUTIONS

PRECAUTIONS PFP:00001

Precautions for Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) “AIR BAG” and “SEAT
BELT PRE-TENSIONER” EES002BW

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 SRS and SB section of this Service Man-
ual.
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 per-
formed by an authorized NISSAN/INFINITI dealer.
● Improper maintenance, including incorrect removal and installation of the SRS, can lead to per-
sonal injury caused by unintentional activation of the system. For removal of Spiral Cable and Air
Bag Module, see the SRS 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
harness connectors.
Precautions for work EES002BX

● After removing and installing the opening/closing parts, be sure to carry out fitting adjustments to check
their operation.
● Check the lubrication level, damage, and wear of each part. If necessary, grease or replace it.

 WHEEL AND TIRE ASSEMBLY

WHEEL AND TIRE ASSEMBLY PFP:40300

Balancing Wheels EES001JZ

WHEEL BALANCE REMOVAL

1. Remove wheel and tire using power tool.
2. Using releasing agent, remove double-faced adhesive tape from the wheel.
CAUTION:
● Be careful not to scratch the wheel during removal.

● After removing double-faced adhesive tape, wipe clean traces of releasing agent from the
wheel.
WHEEL BALANCE INSTALLATION AND ADJUSTMENT
● If a tire balance machine has adhesion balance weight mode settings and drive-in weight mode setting,
select and adjust a drive-in weight mode suitable for wheels.
1. Set wheel on wheel balancer using the center hole as a guide. Start the tire balance machine.
2. When inner and outer imbalance values are shown on the wheel balancer indicator, multiply outer imbal-
ance value by 1.6 to determine balance weight that should be used. Select the outer balance weight with
a value closest to the calculated value and install it to the designated outer position of, or at the desig-
nated angle in relation to the road wheel.
CAUTION:
● Do not install the inner balance weight before installing the outer balance weight.

● Before installing the balance weight, be sure to clean the mating surface of the wheel.

Indicated imbalance value × 5/3 = balance weight to be installed

Calculation example:
23 g (0.81 oz) × 5/3 = 38.33 g (1.35 oz) = 40 g (1.41 oz) balance
weight (closer to calculated balance weight value)
Note that balance weight value must be closer to the calculated
balance weight value.
Example:
37.4 g = 35 g (1.23 oz)
37.5 g = 40 g (1.41 oz)

SMA054D

a. Install balance weight in the position shown.

b. When installing balance weight to wheels, set it into the grooved
area on the inner wall of the wheel as shown so that the balance
weight center is aligned with the wheel balancer indication posi-
tion (angle).
CAUTION:
● Always use Genuine NISSAN adhesion balance weights.

● Balance weights are not reusable; always replace with

new ones.
● Do not install more than three sheets of balance weights.

WDIA0060E

Revision: September 2006 WT-6 2007 Frontier

 WHEEL AND TIRE ASSEMBLY

c. If calculated balance weight value exceeds 50 g (1.76 oz), install

two balance weight sheets in line with each other as shown. A
CAUTION:
Do not install one balance weight sheet on top of another.
3. Start wheel balancer again. B
4. Install drive-in balance weight on inner side of road wheel in the
wheel balancer indication position (angle).
CAUTION: C
Do not install more than two balance weights.
5. Start wheel balancer. Make sure that inner and outer residual SMA056D
imbalance values are 5g (0.18 oz) each or below. D
● If either residual imbalance value exceeds 5 g (0.18 oz), repeat installation procedures.

Wheel balance (Maximum allowable imbalance):

WT
Dynamic (At rim flange) 5 g (0.18 oz) (one side)
Maximum allowable imbalance
Static 10 g (0.35 oz)

Rotation EES001K0
F

NOTE:
Follow the maintenance schedule for tire rotation service intervals. Refer to MA-5, "GENERAL MAINTE-
G
NANCE" .
1. Remove wheels and tires.
2. Rotate wheels and tires on each side from front to back as H
shown. Do not include the spare wheel and tire when rotating
the wheels and tires.
Wheel nut : 133 N·m (14 kg-m, 98 ft-lb)
I
CAUTION:
When installing wheels and tires, tighten them diagonally
by dividing the work two to three times in order to prevent J
the wheels from developing any distortion.
3. Adjust the tire pressure to specification. Refer to WT-29, "Tire" .
4. After the wheel and tire rotation, retighten the wheel nuts after SMA829C
K
the vehicle has been driven for 1,000 km (600 miles), and also
after any wheel and tire has been installed, such as after repairing a flat tire.
