Check with the manufacturer of your specific alignment machine for their recommended Service/Cali-
bration Schedule.
THE ALIGNMENT PROCESS
IMPORTANT: Use only the alignment specifications listed in this Service Manual. Refer to FSU-21,
"Wheelarch Height (Unladen*1 )" .
1. When displaying the alignment settings, many alignment machines use “indicators”: (Green/red, plus or
minus, Go/No Go). Do NOT use these indicators.

The alignment specifications programmed into your alignment machine that operate these indicators
may not be correct.

This may result in an ERROR.
2. Some newer alignment machines are equipped with an optional “Rolling Compensation” method to “com-
pensate” the sensors (alignment targets or head units). Do NOT use this “Rolling Compensation”
method.

Use the “Jacking Compensation” method. After installing the alignment targets or head units, raise the
vehicle and rotate the wheels 1/2 turn both ways.

See Instructions in the alignment machine you are using for more information.
CAMBER AND CASTER
1. Measure camber and caster of both the right and left wheels
with a suitable alignment gauge and adjust as necessary to
specification.
2. If outside of the specified value, adjust camber and caster using
the adjusting bolts in the front lower link.
CAUTION:
After adjusting the camber then check the toe-in.
NOTE:
Camber changes about 3' (0.11°) with each graduation of one
adjusting bolt. Refer to table below for examples of lower link
adjusting bolt effect on camber and caster.
3. Tighten the adjusting bolt nuts to specification. Refer to FSU-5, "
Components" . Camber : Refer to FSU-20, "
Wheel Alignment
(Unladen*1 )" .

EXTERIOR LAMP BATTERY SAVER CONTROL
When the combination switch (lighting switch) is in the 1ST or 2ND position (or if auto light system is acti-
vated), and the ignition switch is turned from ON or ACC to OFF, the battery saver control function is activated.
Under this condition, the illumination lamps remain illuminated for 5 minutes, then the illumination lamps are
turned off.
When the lighting switch is turned from OFF to 1ST or 2ND position (or if auto light system is activated) after
illumination lamps are turned off by the battery saver control, the illumination lamps illuminate again.
Exterior lamp battery saver control mode can be changed by the function setting of CONSULT-II.

General MaintenanceELS000ZZ
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 owner can perform these
checks and inspections or have their NISSAN dealers perform them.
OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be performed from time to time, unless otherwise specified.
INSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked on a regular basis, such as when performing periodic maintenance, cleaning the
vehicle, etc.ItemReference page
TiresCheck the pressure with a gauge at least once a month and always prior to a
long distance trip. Adjust to the specified pressure if necessary. Check carefully
for damage, cuts or excessive wear.—
Wheel lug nutsWhen checking the tires, make sure no nuts are missing, and check for any
loose nuts. Tighten if necessary.WT-6, "
Rotation"
WindshieldClean the windshield on a regular basis. Check the windshield at least every six
months for cracks or other damage. Repair as necessary.
Tire rotationTires should be rotated every 12,000 km (7,500 miles).WT-6, "
Rotation"
Wheel alignment and
balanceIf the vehicle pulls to either side while driving on a straight and level road, or if
you detect uneven or abnormal tire wear, there may be a need for wheel align-
ment. If the steering wheel or seat vibrates at normal highway speeds, wheel
balancing may be needed.WT-5, "Balancing
Wheels", FSU-6, "Front
Wheel Alignment"
Windshield wiper
bladesCheck for cracks or wear if they do not wipe properly.

Doors and engine
hoodCheck that all doors and the engine hood operate smoothly as well as the back
hatch. Also make sure that all latches lock securely. Lubricate if necessary.
Make sure that the secondary latch keeps the hood from opening when the pri-
mary latch is released.
When driving in areas using road salt or other corrosive materials, check lubri-
cation frequently.MA-30, "

Revision: August 20072004 QX56

Check with the manufacturer of your specific alignment machine for their recommended Service/Cali-
bration Schedule.
THE ALIGNMENT PROCESS
IMPORTANT: Use only the alignment specifications listed in this Service Manual. Refer to RSU-47, "Wheel
Alignment" .
1. When displaying the alignment settings, many alignment machines use “indicators”: (Green/red, plus or
minus, Go/No Go). Do NOT use these indicators.

The alignment specifications programmed into your alignment machine that operate these indicators
may not be correct.

This may result in an ERROR.
2. Some newer alignment machines are equipped with an optional “Rolling Compensation” method to “com-
pensate” the sensors (alignment targets or head units). Do NOT use this “Rolling Compensation”
method.

Use the “Jacking Compensation” method. After installing the alignment targets or head units, raise the
vehicle and rotate the wheels 1/2 turn both ways.

See Instructions in the alignment machine you are using for more information.
CAMBER
1. Measure camber of both the right and left wheels with a suitable
alignment gauge and adjust as necessary to specification.
2. If outside of the specified value, adjust the camber using the
adjusting bolt in the front lower link.
CAUTION:
After adjusting the camber then check the toe-in.
NOTE:
Camber changes about 5' minutes with each graduation of the
adjusting bolt.
3. Tighten the adjusting bolt nuts to specification.
TOE-IN
1. Bounce the rear of the vehicle up and down two to three times to stabilize the vehicle height. Refer to
RSU-48, "
Wheelarch Height (Unladen*1 )" .
2. Push the vehicle straight ahead about 5 m (16 ft).
3. Put a mark on the base line of the tread (rear side) of both of the
tires at the same height as the center of the hub. This will be the
measuring points.
4. Measure the distance “A” (rear side) across from tire to tire.Camber : Refer to RSU-47, "
Wheel Alignment" .

5. Push the vehicle slowly ahead to rotate the wheels 180°
degrees (a half turn).
If the wheels are rotated more than 180° degrees (a half turn),
then repeat the above steps. Never push the vehicle backward.
6. Measure the distance “B” (front side) across from tire to tire.
7. If the toe-in is outside the specified value, adjust the toe-in using
the adjusting bolt in the rear lower link.
CAUTION:
Be sure to adjust equally on RH and LH sides using the
adjusting bolt.
NOTE:
Toe changes about 1.5 mm (0.059 in) [one side] with each grad-
uation of the adjusting bolt.
8. Tighten the adjusting bolt nuts to specification.Total toe-in : Refer to RSU-47, "

The settings (ON/OFF) of the automatic sliding seat (Entry/Exiting operation) at entry/exit can be changed
as desired, using the display unit in the center of the instrument panel. The set content is transmitted by
CAN communication, from display control unit to driver seat control unit.

Using CONSULT-ll, the seat slide amount at entry/exit setting can be changed.
FAIL-SAFE MODE
When any manual and automatic operations are not performed, if any motor operations of seats or pedals are
detected for T2 or more, status is judged “Output error”.
CANCEL OF FAIL-SAFE MODE
The mode is cancelled when the selector lever is shifted to P position from any other position.
