RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTSPFP:00000
Fluids and Lubricants NLS00060
*1: For further details, see “SAE Viscosity Number”.
*2: Using automatic transmission fluid other than Genuine NISSAN Matic J ATF will cause deterioration in driveability and
automatic transmission durability, and may damage the automatic transmission, which is not covered by the INFINITI new
vehicle limited warranty.
*3: For hot climates, viscosity SAE 90 is suitable for ambient temperatures above 0 °C (32 °F).
*4: DEXRON
TM III/ MERCONTM or equivalent may also be used. Outside the continental United States and Alaska contact an INFINITI
dealer for more information regarding suitable fluids, including recommended brand(s) of DEXRON TM III/ MERCONTM automatic trans-
mission fluid.
*5: For Canada, NISSAN Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF), DEXRON
TM III/ MERCONTM , or equivalent ATF may also be used.
*6: Available in mainland U.S.A. through your INFINITI dealer. Capacity (Approximate)

SAE Viscosity NumberNLS00061
GASOLINE ENGINE OIL
SAE 5W-30 viscosity oil is preferred for all temperatures. SAE
10W-30 and 10W-40 viscosity oil may be used if the ambient
temperature is above -18 °C (0 °F)
Anti-Freeze Coolant Mixture RatioNLS00062
The engine cooling system is filled at the factory with a high-quality,
year-round, anti-freeze coolant solution. The anti-freeze solution
contains rust and corrosion inhibitors. Therefore, additional cooling
system additives are not necessary.
CAUTION:
When adding or replacing coolant, be sure to use only Genuine
Nissan Long Life Antifreeze/ Coolant or equivalent with the
proper mixture ratio of 50% anti-freeze and 50% demineralized
water/distilled water.
Other types of coolant solutions may damage your cooling sys-
tem.
