Periodic MaintenanceELS001J9
The following tables show the normal maintenance schedule. Depending upon weather and atmospheric con-
ditions, varying road surfaces, individual driving habits and vehicle usage, additional or more frequent mainte-
nance may be required.
Periodic maintenance beyond the last period shown on the tables requires similar maintenance.

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) Never use CG-4 oil.
l(3) Oil filter element assembly and O-ring seal are replacement parts.
l(4) First replace at 100,000 Km (60,000 miles)/60 months, then every 60,000Km (36,000 miles)/36 months. After first
replacement, perform "I" (checking the mixture ratio and correcting the mixture ratio if necessary) at the middle of
replacement interval.

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)
