GENERAL MAINTENANCE

General maintenance includes those items which should be checked during the normal day-to-day operation
of the vehicle. They are essential if the vehicle is to continue operating properly. The owners can perform the
checks and inspections themselves or they can have their NISSAN dealers do them for a nominal charge. GI
OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be performed from time to time, unless otherwise specified.

Item Reference page

Tires Check the pressure with a gauge periodically when at a service station,
including the spare, and adjust to the specified pressure if necessary. Check — EM
carefully for damage, cuts or excessive wear.

Windshield wiper
Check for cracks or wear if not functioning correctly. — LC
blades

Doors and engine Check that all doors, the engine hood, the trunk lid and back door operate
hood properly. Also ensure that all latches lock securely. Lubricate if necessary. EC
Make sure that the secondary latch keeps the hood from opening when the
BT section
primary latch is released.
When driving in areas using road salt or other corrosive materials, check for FE
lubrication frequently.

Tire rotation Tires should be rotated every 10,000 km (6,000 miles). SU-7
CL

INSIDE THE VEHICLE

The maintenance items listed here should be checked on a regular basis, such as when performing periodic maintenance, cleaning the
MT
vehicle, etc.

Item Reference page AT

Lamps Make sure that the headlamps, stop lamps, tail lamps, turn signal lamps,
and other lamps are all operating properly and installed securely. Also check —
headlamp aim. AX
Warning lamps and Make sure that all warning lamps and buzzers/chimes are operating prop-
—
chimes erly. SU
Steering wheel Check that it has the specified play.
Check for changes in the steering conditions, such as excessive free play,
hard steering or strange noises.
— BR
Free play: Less than 35 mm (1.38 in)

Seat belts Check that all parts of the seat belt system (e.g. buckles, anchors, adjusters ST
and retractors) operate properly and smoothly, and are installed securely. RS section
Check the belt webbing for cuts, fraying, wear or damage.
RS
UNDER THE HOOD AND VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked periodically e.g. each time you check the engine oil or refuel. BT
Item Reference page

Windshield washer
Check that there is adequate fluid in the tank. — HA
fluid

Engine coolant level Check the coolant level when the engine is cold. LC section
SC
Engine oil level Check the level after parking the vehicle (on level ground) and turning off the
LC section
engine.

Power steering fluid Check the level on the dipstick with the engine off.
EL
—
level and lines Check the lines for improper attachment, leaks, cracks, etc.

Brake and clutch fluid Make sure that the brake and clutch fluid levels are between the “MAX” and
BR-7
IDX
levels “MIN” lines on the reservoir.

Battery Check the fluid level in each cell. It should be between the “MAX” and “MIN”
—
lines.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE (EXCEPT FOR EUROPE)

The following tables show the normal maintenance schedule. Depending upon weather and atmospheric
conditions, varying road surfaces, individual driving habits and vehicle usage, additional or more frequent
maintenance may be required.
Periodic maintenance beyond the last period shown on the tables requires similar maintenance.

Engine Coolant Mixture Ratio

Engine Coolant Mixture Ratio =NJMA0006S03

The engine cooling system is filled at the factory with a high-quality,
year-round and extended life engine coolant. The high quality
engine coolant contains the specific solutions effective for the anti-
corrosion and the anti-freeze function. Therefore, additional cool-
ing system additives are not necessary.
CAUTION:
I For Europe
When adding or replacing coolant, be sure to use only
Genuine NISSAN Anti-freeze Coolant (L250) or equivalent.
SMA089D Because L250 is premixed type coolant.
I Except for Europe
When adding or replacing coolant, be sure to use only a
Nissan Genuine Engine Coolant or equivalent in its qual-
ity with the proper mixture ratio. See the examples shown
left.
The use of other types of engine coolant may damage your
cooling system.
I When checking the engine coolant mixture ratio by the coolant
hydrometer, use the chart below to correct your hydrometer
reading (specific gravity) according to coolant temperature.

WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious
burns could be caused by high pressure fluid escaping from
the radiator. Wait until the engine and radiator cool down.
