*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 w ithin 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

When drain all of engine coolant in the system, open water drain plug on cylinder block. Refer to
EM-89, "
CYLINDER BLOCK" .
3. Remove reservoir tank as necessary, and drain engine coolant and clean reservoir tank before installing.
4. Check drained engine coolant for contaminants such as rust, corrosion or discoloration. If contaminated,
flush the engine cooling system. Refer to MA-22, "
FLUSHING COOLING SYSTEM" .
REFILLING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Install reservoir tank if removed, and radiator drain plug.
CAUTION:
Be sure to clean radiator drain plug and install with new O-ring.
If water drain plug on cylinder block is removed, close and tighten it. Refer to EM-89, "CYLIN-
DER BLOCK" .
2. Make sure that each hose clamp has been firmly tightened.
3. Fill radiator and reservoir tank to specified level.
Pour engine coolant through engine coolant filler neck
slowly of less than 2 (1-3/4 lmp qt) a minute to allow air
in system to escape.
Use Genuine NISSAN Anti-freeze Coolant or equivalent
mixed with water (distilled or demineralized). Refer to
MA-17, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS".
4. Install radiator cap.
5. Warm up until opening thermostat and water control valve. Standard for warming-up time is approximately
10 minutes at 3,000 rpm.
Make sure thermostat opening condition by touching radiator hose (lower) to see a flow of warm water.
CAUTION:
Watch water temperature gauge so as not to overheat the engine.
6. Stop the engine and cool down to less than approximately 50°C (122°F).
Cool down using fan to reduce the time.
If necessary, refill radiator up to filler neck with engine coolant.
7. Refill reservoir tank to “MAX” level line with engine coolant.
8. Repeat steps 3 through 6 two or more times with radiator cap installed until the engine coolant level no
longer drops.
9. Check cooling system for leaks with the engine running.
10. Warm up the engine, and check for sound of engine coolant flow while running the engine from idle up to
3,000 rpm with heater temperature controller set at several position between “COOL” and “WARM”.
Sound may be noticeable at heater unit.
11. Repeat step 10 three times.
12. If sound is heard, bleed air from cooling system by repeating step 3 through 6 until the engine coolant
level no longer drops. Engine coolant capacity

2. Fill radiator and reservoir tank with water and reinstall radiator cap.
3. Run the engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.
4. Rev the engine two or three times under no-load.
5. Stop the engine and wait until it cools down.
6. Drain water from the system. Refer to MA-20, "
DRAINING ENGINE COOLANT" .
7. Repeat steps 1 through 6 until clear water begins to drain from radiator.
Checking Cooling SystemELS000ZF
WARNING:
Do not remove radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious burns occur from high-pressure
engine coolant escaping from radiator.
Wrap a thick cloth around radiator cap and carefully remove the cap. First, turn the cap a quarter
of a turn to release built-up pressure. Then turn the cap all the way.
CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM HOSES
Check hoses for improper attachment, leaks, cracks, damage, loose connections, chafing and deterioration.
CHECKING RADIATOR
Check radiator for mud or clogging. If necessary, clean radiator as follows.
Be careful not to bend or damage radiator fins.
When radiator is cleaned without removal, remove all surrounding parts such as cooling fan, radiator
shroud and horns. Then tape harness and connectors to prevent water from entering.
1. Apply water by hose to the back side of the radiator core vertically downward.
2. Apply water again to all radiator core surface once per minute.
3. Stop washing if any stains no longer flow out from the radiator.
4. Blow air into the back side of radiator core vertically downward.
Use compressed air lower than 490 kPa (4.9 bar, 5 kg/cm2 , 71 psi) and keep distance more than 30 cm
(11.8 in).
5. Blow air again into all the radiator core surfaces once per minute until no water sprays out.
CHECKING RADIATOR CAP
Check valve seat of radiator cap.
–Check if valve seat is swollen to the extent that the edge of the
plunger cannot be seen when watching it vertically from the top.
–Check if valve seat has no soil and damage.
