Abbreviations: I = Inspect and correct or replace as necessary, R = Replace, D = Check filter and drain water
NOTE:
lMaintenance items with “ ” should be performed more frequently according to “Maintenance Under Severe Driving
Conditions”.
l(1) If valve noise increases, check valve clearance.
l(2)NeveruseCG-4oil.
l(3) Oil filter element assembly and O-ring seal are replacement parts.
l(4) First replace at 100,000 Km (60,000 miles), then every 60,000Km (36,000 miles). After first replacement, perform "I"
(checking the mixture ratio and correcting the mixture ratio if necessary) at the middle of replacement interval.
l(5) If engine power decreases, black exhaust smoke is emitted or engine noise increases, perform this maintenance item.

Fluids and LubricantsELS001JA
*1: For further details, see “SAE Viscosity Number”.
*2: Never use API CG-4.
*3: Use Genuine NISSAN Anti-freeze Coolant (L250) 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.
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.
*4: Contact a Nissan dealership for more information regarding suitable fluids, including recommended brand(s) of DEXRON
™III/MER-
CON™ Automatic Transmission Fluid.
*5:Using automatic transmission fluid other than Genuine NISSAN ATF Matic Fluid J will cause deterioration in driveability
and automatic transmission durability, and may damage the automatic transmission, which is not covered by the warranty.
*6: DEXRON™III type ATF can be used.
*7: Never mix different types of fluids (DOT 3 and DOT 4).Capacity (Approximate)
