2-pole Lift=NJGI0009S04WARNING:
When lifting the vehicle, open the lift arms as wide as possible
and ensure that the front and rear of the vehicle are well bal-
anced.
When setting the lift arm, do not allow the arm to contact the

Tow Truck TowingNJGI0009S05CAUTION:
+All applicable local laws regarding the towing operation
must be obeyed.
+It is necessary to use proper towing equipment to avoid
possible damage to the vehicle during towing operation.
Towing is in accordance with Towing Procedure Manual at
dealer.
+Always attach safety chains before towing.
+When towing, make sure that the transmission, steering
system and power train are in good order. If any unit is
damaged, dollies must be used.
NISSAN recommends that the vehicle be towed with the driving
(front) wheels off the ground as illustrated.
TOWING AN AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE MODEL WITH
FOUR WHEELS ON GROUND
NJGI0009S0502Observe the following restricted towing speeds and distances.
Speed:
Below 50 km/h (30 MPH)
Distance:
Less than 65 km (40 miles)
CAUTION:
Never tow an automatic transaxle model from the rear (i.e.,
backward) with four wheels on the ground as this may cause
serious and expensive damage to the transaxle.
TOWING AN AUTOMATIC TRANSAXLE MODEL WITH
REAR WHEELS RAISED (WITH FRONT WHEELS ON
GROUND)
NJGI0009S0503Never tow an automatic transaxle model with rear wheels raised
(with front wheels on ground) as this may cause serious and
expensive damage to the transaxle. If it is necessary to tow it with
rear wheels raised, always use a towing dolly under the front
wheels.

Ð REFILLING ENGINE COOLANT ÐNJLC0079S021. Install reservoir tank, radiator drain cock or lower radiator hose
and cylinder block drain plug.
+Apply sealant to the thread of cylinder block drain plugs.
:8-11N´m(0.8 - 1.2 kg-m, 70 - 104 in-lb)
2. Fill radiator slowly with coolant until coolant spills from the air
relief plugs, then install air relief plugs.
+Location of air relief plugs
Water inlet and rear side intake manifold water tubes
3. Disconnect heater hose at engine, pour coolant into the hose
so that it flows toward the heater core.
+While filling, if coolant from engine side spills out, be sure to
reconnect the heater hose.
+Fill coolant to the level of the radiator cap at a rate of 2!(1-3/4
Imp qt)/min or lower.
(Close the air relief plugs in order starting with the location from
where the coolant began spilling out.)
CAUTION:
If the filling rate is too fast, this could lead to air being mixed
in the coolant. Be sure to fill the coolant slowly according to
the rate indicated above.
+Replace the copper washer of the air bleeding plug.
Air relief plug:
: 6.7 - 7.9 N´m (0.68 - 0.81 kg-m, 59 - 70 in-lb)
+Use genuine Nissan anti-freeze coolant or equivalent
mixed with water (distilled or demineralized).
SMA182B
SMA412B
Refer to MA-16, ªRECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRI-
CANTSº.
Engine coolant capacity (With reservoir tank):
8.7!(7-5/8 Imp qt)
Reservoir tank capacity:
0.7!(5/8 Imp qt)
+Pour coolant through coolant filler neck slowly to allow air
in system to escape.
4. Fill radiator and reservoir tank to specified level.
5. Warm up engine to normal operating temperature without
radiator cap installed.
+If coolant overflows radiator filler hole, install radiator cap.
6. Run engine at 3,000 rpm for 10 seconds and return to idle
speed with radiator cap installed.
+Repeat two or three times.
Watch coolant temperature gauge so as not to overheat the
engine.
7. Stop engine and cool it down.
+Cool down using a fan to reduce the time.
+If necessary, refill radiator up to filler neck with coolant.
8. Refill reservoir tank to MAX level line with coolant.
