2007 NISSAN QASHQAI Engine compartment

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine If you must run the engine in an enclosed
space such as a garage, be sure there is
proper ventilation for exhaust gases.
Do not get under a vehicle that is supported
only by a jack: Use vehicle support stands.
Keep smoking materials, flame and sparks
away from fuel and battery.
Never connect or disconnect either the bat-
tery or any transistorised component connec-
tor while the ignition switch is in the ON posi-
tion.
Never leave the engine or transmission re-
lated component harness connector discon-
nected while the ignition switch is in the ON
position.
On petrol engine models with the multiport
fuel injection (MFI) system, the fuel filter or
fuel lines should be serviced by a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop because the fuel
lines are under high pressure even when the
engine is off.
Always wear eye protection whenever you
work on your vehicle.
Failure to follow these or other common sense
guidelines may lead to serious injury or ve-
hicle damage.
NISSAN GREEN PROGRAMImproperly disposed engine oil and/or other
vehicle fluids can pollute the environment. Al-
ways conform to local regulations for disposal
of vehicle fluid.
This section gives instructions regarding only those
items which are relatively easy for an owner to per-
form.
You should be aware that incomplete or improper
servicing may result in operating difficulties or ex-
cessive emissions, and could affect your warranty
coverage. If in doubt about any servicing, have it
done by your NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop. For an overview of the engine compartment, see
“Instrument and control layout” in the “0. Illus-
trated table of contents” section
