*1: For additional information, see “Engine Oil Recommendation”.
*2: As an alternative to this recommended oil, SAE 5W-30 conventional petroleum based oil may be used and meet all specifications
and requirements necessary to maintain the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
*3: Use only Genuine NISSAN CVT Fluid NS-3, using automatic transmission fluid other than Genuine NISSAN CVT Fluid NS-3
will damage the CVT, which is not covered by the NISSAN new vehicle limited warranty.
*4 If Genuine NISSAN Manual Transmission fluid (MTF) TL/JR Type is not available, API GL-4+, Viscosity SAE 75W-80 may be used as
a temporary replacement. However, use Genuine NISSAN Manual Transmission Fluid (MTF) TL/JR Type as soon as it is available.
*5: Available in mainland U.S.A. through a NISSAN dealer.
*6: For additional information, see "Air conditioner specification label".
Engine Oil Recommendation
INFOID:0000000009756176
NISSAN recommends the use of an energy conserving oil in order to improve fuel economy. Select only
engine oils that meet the American Petroleum Institute (API) certification and International Lubricant Standard-
ization and Approval Committee (ILSAC) certification and SAE viscosity standard. These oils have the API
certification mark 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.

RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS
Engine Coolant Mixture Ratio
INFOID:0000000009756177
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:
• Do not 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.
• 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 the vehicle is operated, 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 system.
• Mixing any other type of coolant other than Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue),
including Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (green), or the use of non-distilled water will
reduce the life expectancy of the factory-fill coolant.

DRIVE BELT
DRIVE BELT : Inspection
INFOID:0000000009756178
WARNING:
Perform this step when engine is stopped.
• Check that the indicator of drive belt auto-tensioner is within the possible use range.
NOTE:
• Check the drive belt auto-tensioner indication when the engine is cold.
• When new drive belt is installed, the indicator should be within the new drive belt range.
• Visually check entire drive belt for wear, damage or cracks.
• If the indicator is out of the possible use range or belt is damaged, replace drive belt.
DRIVE BELT : Adjustment
INFOID:0000000009756179
Belt tension is not necessary, as it is automatically adjusted by drive belt auto-tensioner.
ENGINE COOLANT
ENGINE COOLANT : System Inspection
INFOID:0000000009756181
WARNING:
• Do not remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious burns could occur from high pres-
sure engine coolant escaping from the radiator.
• Wrap a thick cloth around the cap. Slowly push down and turn it a quarter turn to allow built-up pres-
sure to escape. Carefully remove the cap by pushing down and turning it all the way.
CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM HOSES
Check hoses for the following:
• Improper attachment
• Leaks
• Cracks
• Damage
• Loose connections
• Chafing
• Deterioration

ENGINE MAINTENANCE
• Check if the reservoir tank engine coolant level is within MIN to
MAX when the engine is cool.
• Adjust engine coolant level if it is too much or too little.
ENGINE COOLANT : Changing Engine Coolant
INFOID:0000000009756182
WARNING:
• To avoid being scalded, do not change the engine coolant when the engine is hot.
• Wrap a thick cloth around cap and carefully remove the cap. First, turn the cap a quarter of a turn to
release built-up pressure. Then push down and turn the cap all the way to remove.
DRAINING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Remove the engine under cover. Refer to
.
2. Open the radiator drain plug (1) at the bottom of the radiator and
remove the radiator filler cap. This is the only step required
when partially draining the cooling system (radiator only).
CAUTION:
• Do not spill engine coolant on the drive belt.
• Perform this step when the engine is cold.
3. Follow this step for heater core removal/replacement only. Disconnect the upper heater hose at the
engine side and apply moderate air pressure [103.46 kPa (1.055 kg/cm
2
, 15 psi) maximum air pressure]
into the hose for 30 seconds to blow the excess engine coolant out of the heater core.
4. When draining all of the engine coolant in the system, remove the reservoir tank and drain the engine
coolant, then clean the reservoir tank before installation.
CAUTION:
• Do not allow the engine coolant to contact the drive belt.
• Perform this step when engine is cold.
5. When draining all of the engine coolant in the system for engine removal or repair, remove the engine
coolant drain plugs on the cylinder block.
6. Check the drained engine coolant for contaminants such as rust, corrosion or discoloration.
If the engine coolant is contaminated, flush the engine cooling system.
REFILLING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Install the radiator drain plug. Install the reservoir tank and cylinder block drain plug, if removed for a total
system drain or for engine removal or repair.
• The radiator must be completely empty of engine coolant and water.
• Apply sealant to the threads of the cylinder block drain plug. Use Genuine High Performance
Thread Sealant or equivalent. Refer to
MA-11, "Fluids and Lubricants"
.
2. If disconnected, reattach the upper radiator hose at the engine side.
3. Set the vehicle heater controls to the full HOT and heater ON position. Turn the vehicle ignition ON with
the engine OFF as necessary to activate the heater mode.
