This is page GI-4 from a Nissan factory service manual's General Information section, titled "HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL." It explains six conventions used throughout the manual: a quick reference index with black section tabs (e.g., FA), section contents on each section's first page, page titles indicating the part or system, two-letter-plus-number page numbering (e.g., FA-5), the note that illustrations are for service reference only (parts should be ordered from the Parts Catalog), and that each section opens with a large exploded-view illustration containing tightening torques and lubrication points. An example exploded view is provided: "FRONT AXLE — Wheel Hub and Knuckle," labeling the drive shaft, grease seals (inside and outside, to be packed with recommended grease and replaced), knuckle, circlip, inner and outer wheel bearings, spacer (refer to S.D.S.), baffle plate, wheel hub, disc rotor, washer, adjusting cap, and cotter pin. A torque specification of 78-157 N·m (8-16 kg-m, 58-116 ft-lb) is given for the drive shaft nut. A caution states that inner and outer wheel bearings must be replaced at the same time to prevent mixing bearing brands. Illustration reference code SFA494 appears.
