PRECAUTIONS
Precaution for Multiport Fuel Injection System or Engine Control System
INFOID:0000000001606121
Before connecting or disconnecting any harness connector for the
multiport fuel injection system or ECM:
Turn ignition switch to “OFF” position.
Disconnect negative battery terminal.
Otherwise, there may be damage to ECM.
Before disconnecting pressurized fuel line from fuel pump to injec-
tors, be sure to release fuel pressure.
Be careful not to jar components such as ECM and mass air flow
sensor.
Precaution for HosesINFOID:0000000001606122
HOSE REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
To prevent damage to rubber hose, do not pry off rubber hose with
tapered tool or screwdriver.
To reinstall the rubber hose securely, make sure that hose insertion
length and orientation is correct. (If tube is equipped with hose
stopper, insert rubber hose into tube until it butts up against hose
stopper.)
HOSE CLAMPING
If old rubber hose is re-used, install hose clamp in its original posi-
tion (at the indentation where the old clamp was). If there is a trace
of tube bulging left on the old rubber hose, align rubber hose at
that position.
Discard old clamps; replace with new ones.

GENERAL MAINTENANCE
General MaintenanceINFOID:0000000001277597
General maintenance includes those items which should be checked during the normal day-to-day operation
of the vehicle. They are essential if the vehicle is to continue operating properly. The owners can perform the
checks and inspections themselves or they can have their NISSAN dealers do them for a nominal charge.
OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be performed from time to time, unless otherwise specified.
INSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked on a regular basis, such as when performing periodic maintenance, cleaning the vehicle,
etc.
UNDER THE HOOD AND VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked periodically e.g. each time you check the engine oil or refuel.
Item Reference page
TiresCheck the pressure with a gauge periodically when at a service station, including
the spare, and adjust to the specified pressure if necessary. Check carefully for
damage, cuts or excessive wear.WT-7, "
Tire"
Windshield wiper
bladesCheck for cracks or wear if not functioning correctly. —
Doors and engine
hoodCheck that all doors, the engine hood, the trunk lid and back door operate prop-
erly. Also ensure that all latches lock securely. Lubricate if necessary. Make sure
that the secondary latch keeps the hood from opening when the primary latch is
released.
When driving in areas using road salt or other corrosive materials, check for lu-
brication frequently.MA-57, "

Tire rotationTires should be rotated every 10,000 km (6,000 miles) for 2WD models and every
5,000 km (3,000 miles) for 4WD models.MA-53
Item Reference page
LampsMake sure that the headlamps, stop lamps, tail lamps, turn signal lamps, and oth-
er lamps are all operating properly and installed securely. Also check headlamp
aim.—
Warning lamps and
chimesMake sure that all warning lamps and buzzers/chimes are operating properly. —
Steering wheelCheck that it has the specified play.
Check for changes in the steering conditions, such as excessive free play, hard
steering or strange noises.
Free play: Less than 35 mm (1.38 in)—
Seat beltsCheck that all parts of the seat belt system (e.g. buckles, anchors, adjusters and
retractors) operate properly and smoothly, and are installed securely. Check the
belt webbing for cuts, fraying, wear or damage.MA-57

ENGINE MAINTENANCE (MR18DE)
RADIATOR : Checking Radiator Cap
INFOID:0000000001730871
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.
Pull negative-pressure valve to open it, and make sure that it is
completely closed when released.
- Make sure that there is no dirt or damage on the valve seat of radi-
ator cap negative-pressure valve.
- Make sure that the valve operates properly in the opening and
closing conditions.
Check radiator cap relief pressure using suitable tool.
- When connecting the radiator cap to the tester, apply water or
coolant to the cap seal surface.
- Replace the radiator cap if there is an abnormality in the negative-
pressure valve, or if the open-valve pressure is outside of the stan-
dard values.
Replace radiator cap if there it does not comply to specifications to the above three checks.
CAUTION:
When installing radiator cap, thoroughly wipe out the radiator filler neck to remove any waxy residue
or foreign material.
RADIATOR : Checking RadiatorINFOID:0000000001730872
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 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/cm
2, 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.
