When draining all of engine coolant in the system, open water drain plugs on cylinder block. Refer
to EM-253, "
DISASSEMBLY" .
4. Remove reservoir tank as necessary, and drain engine coolant and clean reservoir tank before installing.
5. Check drained engine coolant for contaminants such as rust, corrosion or discoloration.
If contaminated, flush the engine cooling system. Refer to MA-24, "
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 plugs on cylinder block are removed, close and tighten them. Refer to EM-257,
"ASSEMBLY" .
2. Make sure that each hose clamp has been firmly tightened.
3. Remove air relief plug (1) on heater hose.
4. Fill thermostat housing and reservoir tank to specified level.
Refill engine coolant up to filler neck of thermostat housing.
Pour engine coolant through engine coolant filler neck slowly of less than 2 (2-1/8 US qt, 1-3/4
Imp qt) a minute to allow air in system to escape.
Use genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant or equivalent mixed with water (distilled or
demineralized). Refer to MA-12, "
RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS" .

When engine coolant overflows air relief hole on heater hose,
install air relief plug.
5. Install radiator cap.
6. Warm up until opening thermostat. 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 engine.
7. Stop engine and cool down to less than approximately 50°C (122°F).
Cool down using a fan to reduce the time.
If necessary, refill engine coolant up to filler neck of thermostat housing.
8. Refill reservoir tank to “MAX” level line with engine coolant.
9. Repeat steps 4 through 7 two or more times with radiator cap installed until engine coolant level no longer
drops.
10. Check cooling system for leaks with engine running.
11. Warm up engine, and check for sound of engine coolant flow while running 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.
12. Repeat step 11 three times.
13. If sound is heard, bleed air from cooling system by repeating steps 4 through 7 until engine coolant level
no longer drops.
FLUSHING COOLING SYSTEM
1. Install reservoir tank, and radiator drain plug.
CAUTION:
Be sure to clean drain plug and install with new O-ring.
If water drain plugs on cylinder block are removed, close and tighten them. Refer to EM-257,
"ASSEMBLY" .
2. Remove air relief plug (1) on heater hose.
3. Fill thermostat housing with water until water spills from the air relief hole, then close air relief plug. Fill
thermostat housing and reservoir tank with water and reinstall radiator cap. Reservoir tank engine coolant capacity
(At “MAX” level):
0.8 (7/8 US qt, 3/4 lmp qt)

When rear heated seat switch (LH, RH) is LOW position, ground is suppled
to rear seat control unit terminal 18,
through rear heated seat switch terminal 2,
through rear heated seat switch terminal 3,
through body grounds B5, B40 and B131
Then rear seat control unit recognizes that rear heated seat switch is LOW position.
When rear heated seat switch is LOW position, power is supplied
through rear seat control unit terminal 6,
through rear seat cushion heater terminal 2,
through rear seat cushion heater terminal 3,
to rear seatback heater terminal 1.
Then ground is suppled
to rear seatback heater terminal 2.
through body grounds B5, B40 and B131.
With power and ground supplied, rear heated seat is operated.
When rear heated seat switch is in LOW position, ground is supplied
to rear heated seat switch terminal 5,
through rear seat control unit terminal 14,
through rear seat control unit terminal 13,
through body grounds B5, B40 and B131.
With power and ground supplied, rear heated seat switch LOW position indicator is illuminated
When rear heated seat switch (LH, RH) is in HIGH position, ground is suppled
to rear seat control unit terminal 17,
through rear heated seat switch terminal 1,
through rear heated seat switch terminal 3,
through body grounds B5, B40 and B131
Then rear seat control unit recognizes that rear heated seat switch is in HIGH position.
When rear heated seat switch is in HIGH position, power is supplied
through rear seat control unit terminal 5,
through rear seat cushion heater terminal 1,
through rear seat cushion heater terminal 3,
to rear seatback heater terminal 1.
Then ground is suppled
to rear seatback heater terminal 2.
through body grounds B5, B40 and B131.
to rear seat cushion heater terminal 2,
through rear seat control unit terminal 6,
through rear seat control unit terminal 8,
through body grounds B5, B40 and B131.
With power and ground supplied, rear heated seat generates heat more than the time of LOW position.
When rear heated seat switch is in HIGH position, ground is supplied
to rear heated seat switch terminal 4,
through rear seat control unit terminal 9,
through rear seat control unit terminal 13,
through body grounds B5, B40 and B131.
With power and ground supplied rear heated seat switch HIGH position indicator is illuminated.
