FUEL RECOMMENDATION:Use unleaded regular gasoline with an octane
rating of at least 87 AKI (Anti-Knock Index)
number (Research octane number 91).
For improved vehicle performance, NISSAN rec-
ommends the use of unleaded premium gasoline
with an octane rating of at least 91 AKI number
(Research octane number 96).
CAUTION
Using a fuel other than that specified
could adversely affect the emission con-
trol devices and systems, and could also
affect the warranty coverage.
Under no circumstances should a
leaded gasoline be used since this will
damage the three way catalyst.
For additional information, see “Capacities and
recommended fuel/lubricants” in the “9. Techni-
cal and consumer information” section.ENGINE OIL RECOMMENDATION:
API Certification Mark

API grade SG/SH, Energy ConservingI&II
or API grade SJ or SL, Energy Conserving.
ILSAC grade GF-I, GF-II & GF-III.
