PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
FOR USA AND CANADA : Periodic Maintenance Schedule 2
INFOID:0000000007347347
EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
Abbreviations: R = Replace. I = Inspect. Correct or replace if necessary. [ ]: At the mileage intervals only
NOTE:
(1) After 60,000 miles (96,000 km) or 48 months, inspect every 15,000 miles (24,000 km) or 12 months. Replace the drive belts if found
damaged, or if the auto tensioner reading reaches the maximum limit.
(2) Maintenance-free item. For service procedures, refer to FL section.
(3) First replacement interval is 105,000 miles (120,000 km) or 84 months. After first replacement, replace every 75,000 miles (120,000
km) or 60 months.
(4) When adding or replacing coolant, be sure to use only Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) or equivalent. Genuine
NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze Coolant (blue) is pre-diluted to provide antifreeze protection to -34
°
F (-37
°
C). If additional freeze protec-
tion is needed due to weather where you operate your vehicle, add Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) concentrate
following the directions on the container. If an equivalent coolant other than Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) is
used, follow the coolant manufacturer’s instructions to maintain minimum antifreeze protection to -34
°
F (-37
°
C). The use of other types
of coolant solutions other than Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) or equivalent may damage the engine cooling sys-
tem.
(5) Periodic maintenance is not required. However, if valve noise increases, inspect valve clearance.
* Maintenance items and intervals with “*” are recommended by NISSAN for reliable vehicle operation. The owner need not perform
such maintenance in order to maintain the emission warranty or manufacturer recall liability. Other maintenance items and intervals are
required.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
NOTE:
Maintenance items with “ ” should be performed more frequently according to “Maintenance Under Severe Driving Condi-
tions”.
(1) Periodic maintenance is not required. However, if valve noise increases, check valve clearance.
(2) Replace the drive belts if found damaged or if the auto belt tensioner reading reaches the maximum limit.
(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. After first replacement, replace every 40,000 km (24,000 miles) or 24
months.
(4) Fuel filter is maintenance-free. For service procedures, refer to FL section.

*7: For further details, refer to
GI-26, "Precaution for Fuel (Unleaded Premium Gasoline Recommended)"
. For improved performance,
NISSAN recommends the use of unleaded premium gasoline with an octane rating of at least 91 AKI (RON 96).
*8: Using automatic transmission fluid other than Genuine NISSAN Matic D ATF will cause deterioration in driveability and transfer dura-
bility, and may damage the transfer, which is not covered by the NISSAN new vehicle limited warranty.
*9: See a NISSAN dealership for service for synthetic oil.
FOR USA AND CANADA : SAE Viscosity Number
INFOID:0000000007347350
NISSAN recommends the use of an energy conserving oil in order to
improve fuel economy. Select only engine oils that meet the Ameri-
can Petroleum Institute (API) certification and International Lubricant
Standardization and Approval Commottee (ILSAC) certification and
SAE viscosity standard (2). These oils have the API certification
mark (1) on the front of the container. Oils which do not have the
specified quality label should not be used as they could cause
engine damage.
FOR USA AND CANADA : Anti-Freeze Coolant Mixture Ratio
INFOID:0000000007347351
The engine cooling system is filled at the factory with a pre-diluted mixture of 50% Genuine NISSAN Long Life
Antifreeze / Coolant (blue) and 50% water to provide year-round anti-freeze and coolant protection. The anti-
freeze solution contains rust and corrosion inhibitors. Additional engine cooling system additives are not nec-
essary.
WARNING:
• Never remove the radiator or coolant reservoir cap when the engine is hot. Wait until the engine and
radiator cool down. Serious burns could be caused by high pressure fluid escaping from the radia-
tor. See precautions in "If your vehicle overheats" found in the "In case of emergency" section of
this manual.
• The radiator is equipped with a pressure type radiator cap. To prevent engine damage, use only a
genuine NISSAN radiator cap.
CAUTION:
• When adding or replacing coolant, be sure to use only Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Cool-
ant (blue) or equivalent. Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) is pre-diluted to pro-
vide antifreeze protection to -34
°
F (-37
°
C). If additional freeze protection is needed due to weather
where you operate your vehicle, add Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) concen-
trate following the directions on the container. If an equivalent coolant other than Genuine NISSAN
Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) is used, follow the coolant manufacturer’s instructions to main-
tain minimum antifreeze protection to -34
°
F (-37
°
C). The use of other types of coolant solutions
other than Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) or equivalent may damage the
engine cooling system.
• The life expectancy of the factory-fill coolant is 105,000 miles (168,000 km) or 7 years. Mixing any
other type of coolant other than Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze / Coolant (blue), including
ALPIA0001ZZ

< PERIODIC MAINTENANCE >
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS
Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze / Coolant (green), or the use of non-distilled water will reduce
the life expectancy of the factory-fill coolant. Refer to the Nissan Service and Maintenance Guide for
more details.
FOR MEXICO
FOR MEXICO : Fluids and Lubricants
INFOID:0000000007347352
*1: For further details, refer to
MA-20, "FOR MEXICO : SAE Viscosity Number"
*2: Use Genuine NISSAN Engine Coolant or equivalent in its quality, in order to avoid possible aluminium corrosion within the
engine cooling system caused by the use of non-genuine engine coolant.
Note that any repairs for the incidents within the engine cooling system while using non-genuine engine coolant may not be
covered by the warranty even if such incidents occurred during the warranty period.
*3: If Genuine NISSAN Matic S ATF is not available, Genuine NISSAN Matic J ATF may also be used. Using automatic transmission
fluid other than Genuine NISSAN Matic S ATF or Genuine NISSAN Matic J ATF will cause deterioration in driveability and automatic
transmission durability, and may damage the automatic transmission, which is not covered by the warranty.

The engine cooling system is filled at the factory with a high-quality, year-round and extended life engine cool-
ant. The high quality engine coolant contains the specific solutions effective for the anti-corrosion and the anti-
freeze function. Therefore, additional cooling system additives are not necessary.
WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious burns could be caused by high pres-
sure fluid escaping from the radiator. Wait until the engine and radiator cool down.
