PERIODIC MAINTENANCE

• (2) Replace the drive belt if found damaged.

• (3) Use Genuine NISSAN Engine Coolant or equivalent in its quality, in order to avoid possible aluminum corrosion within

the engine cooling system caused by the use of non-genuine engine coolant. First replace at 100,000 km (62,500 miles)/60
months, then every 60,000 km (37,500 miles)/48 months. Perform “I” (Checking the mixture ratio and correcting the mixture
ratio if necessary) at the middle of replacement interval.

• (4) Fuel filter is maintenance-free. For service procedures, refer to FL section.

• (5) Perform diagnosis for all systems with CONSULT and check for DTC.
