Tow Truck Towing
CAUTION:
+All applicable local laws regarding the towing operation
must be obeyed.
+It is necessary to use proper towing equipment to avoid
possible damage to the vehicle during a towing operation.
+Attach safety chains for all towing.
+When towing, make sure that the transmission, steering
system and power train are in good order. If any unit is
damaged, a dolly must be used.
+When towing with the front wheels on the ground:
Turn the ignition key to the ``OFF'' position and secure the
steering wheel in a straight-ahead position with a rope or
similar device. Never place the ignition key in the ``LOCK''
position. This will result in damage to the steering lock
mechanism.
+When towing manual transmission models with the rear
wheels on the ground:
Release the parking brake and move the gearshift lever to
neutral (``N'' position).
+For 4-wheel drive models:
Set the manual-lock free-running hubs to the free position and
2-way lock free-running hubs to the auto position. (See
``
Transfer case shifting procedures for 4-wheel drive
vehicles'' in ``Starting and driving'' section.) Move the transfer
case shift lever into the ``2H'' position and the transmission shift
lever into the neutral (``N'') position.
Do not shift the transfer lever to the ``4L'' position. This will
cause damage to the transmission.
NISSAN recommends that a dolly be used as illustrated.
If you have to tow a manual transmission model with front
wheels raised (with rear wheels on ground)
Observe the following restricted raising heights.
+Do not raise the front end over!.

Self-diagnosis
INTRODUCTION AND GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The self-diagnostic system diagnoses sensors, door motors,
blower motor, etc. by system line. Refer to applicable sections
(items) for details. Shifting from normal control to the self-diagnos-
tic system is accomplished by starting the engine (turning the igni-
tion switch from ``OFF'' to ``ON'') and pressing ``
'' switch for at
least 5 seconds. The ``
'' switch must be pressed within 5 sec-
onds after starting the engine (ignition switch is turned ``ON''). This
system will be canceled by either pressing
(AUTO) switch or
turning the ignition switch ``OFF''. Shifting from one step to another
is accomplished by means of turning temperature dial clockwise or
counterclockwise, as required.
Additionally shifting from STEP 4 to AUXILIARY MECHANISM is
accomplished by means of pushing
(fan) switch.
(Ignition switch OFF®ON)
Within 5 seconds after starting engine (ignition
switch is turned ``ON''), press
switch for
at least 5 seconds.
