GENERAL MAINTENANCE
Explanation of Gene ral MaintenanceINFOID:0000000001328893
General maintenance includes those items which shoul d 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
checks and inspections themselves or have their INFINITI dealers do them.
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.
Item Reference page
Tires Check the pressure with a gauge, including the spare, at least once a month
and always prior to a long distance trips. Adjust to the specified pressure if nec-
essary. Check carefully for damage, cuts or excessive wear. —
Wheel nuts When checking the tires, make sure no nuts are missing, and check for any
loose nuts. Tighten if necessary. —
Windshield Clean the windshield on a regular basis. Check the windshield at least every six
months for cracks or other damage. Repair as necessary. —
Tire rotation Tires should be rotated every 12,000 km (7,500 miles). MA-31
Transmitter compo-
nents in tire pressure
monitoring system
(TPMS)Replace grommet seal, valve core and cap of the transmitter in TPMS every tire
replacement by reaching wear limit of tire.
WT-10
Wheel alignment and
balanceIf the vehicle pulls to either side while driving on a straight and level road, or if
you detect uneven or abnormal tire wear, there may be a need for wheel align-
ment. If the steering wheel or seat vibrates at normal highway speeds, wheel
balancing may be needed. MA-30
,
FSU-5
Windshield wiper
blades Check for cracks or wear if they do not wipe properly. —
Doors and engine
hood Check that all doors and the engine hood operate smoothly as well as the trunk
lid and back hatch. Also make sure 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 lubri-
cation frequently. MA-35
Lamps
Make sure that the headlamps, stop lamps, tail lamps, turn signal lamps, and
other lamps are all operating properly and installed securely. Also check head-
lamp aim. Clean the headlamps on a regular basis. —
Item
Reference page
Warning lamps and
chimes Make sure that all warning lamps and chimes are operating properly. —
Windshield wiper and
washer Check that the wipers and washer operate properly and that the wipers do not
streak.
—
Windshield defroster Check that the air comes out of the defroster outlets properly and in sufficient
quantity when operating the heater or air conditioner. —
Steering wheel Check that it has the specified play. Be sure to check for changes in the steering
condition, such as excessive play, hard steering or strange noises.
Free play: Less than 35 mm (1.38 in) —
Seats Check seat position controls such as seat adjusters, seatback recliner, etc. to
make sure they operate smoothly and that all latches lock securely in every po-
sition. Check that the head restrains move up and down smoothly and that the
locks (if equipped) hold securely in all latched positions. Check that the latches
lock securely for folding-down rear seatbacks. —
Seat belts Check 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-35

a. Install balance weight in the position shown in the figure at right.
b. When installing balance weight to road wheels, set it into the grooved area on the inner wall of the road wheel as shown in the
figure so that the balance weight center is aligned with the tire
balance machine indication position (angle).
CAUTION:
 Always use genuine NISSAN adhesion balance weights.
 Balance weights are unreusable; always replace with newones.
 Do not install more than three sheets of balance weight.
c. If calculated balance weight value exceeds 50 g (1.76 oz), install two balance weight sheets in line with each other (as shown in
the figure).
CAUTION:
Do not install one balance weig ht sheet on top of another.
3. Start tire balance machine again.
4. Install drive-in balance weight on inner side of road wheel in the tire balance machine indication position (angle).
CAUTION:
Do not install more than two balance weights.
5. Start tire balance machine. Make sure that inner and outer resid- ual unbalance values are 5.0 g (0.18 oz) each or below.
 If either residual unbalance value exceeds 5.0 g (0.18 oz), repeat installation procedures.
Tire RotationINFOID:0000000001328927
 After rotation the tires, adjust the tire pressure.
 Retighten the wheel nuts when the vehicle has been driven for
1,000 km (600 miles) (also in cases of a flat tire, etc.).
CAUTION:
 Do not include the T-type spare tire when rotating the tires.
 When installing wheels, tighte n them diagonally by dividing
the work two to three times in order to prevent the wheels
from developing any distortion.
 Be careful not to tighten wh eel nut at torque exceeding the
criteria for preventing strain of disc rotor.
 Use NISSAN genuine wheel nu ts for aluminum wheels.

PEDAL STROKE
• When parking brake pedal is operated with a force of 200 N (20.4 kg, 44.9 lb), make sure the parking brake
pedal stroke is within the specified number of notches . (Check it by listening and counting the ratchet clicks.)
 Make sure that brake warning lamp comes on when parking brake pedal is depressed with in one notch.
INSPECT COMPONENTS
 Make sure the components are installed properly (check for looseness, backlash, etc.).
 Check parking brake pedal assembly for bend, damage and cracks, and replace if necessary.
 Check cable for wear and damage, and replace if necessary.
 Check parking brake switch for malfunction, and replace if necessary.
ADJUSTMENT
1. Insert a deep socket wrench to rotate adjusting nut and loosen cable sufficiently. Then, return pedal.
2. Remove tires from vehicle with power tool.
3. Using wheel nuts, fix disc rotor to hub and prevent it from tilting.
4. Remove adjusting hole plug installed on disc rotor. Using a flat- bladed screwdriver, turn adjuster to clockwise in the figure until
disc rotor is locked. After locking, turn adjuster to opposite direc-
tion by 5 or 6 notches.
5. Rotate disc rotor to make sure that there is no drag. Then install adjusting hole plug.
6. After adjusting the clearance of rear shoes, with no drag on rear brake, adjuster cable as follows:
a. Operate pedal 10 or more times with a force of 490 N (50 kg, 110 lb).
b. Depress pedal until a deep socket wrench can be inserted. Insert deep socket, and rotate adjusting nut to adjust pedal stroke.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse adjusting nut after removing it.
c. When parking brake pedal is operated with a force of 200 N (20.4 kg, 44.9 lb), make sure the stroke is
within the specified number of notches. (Check it by listening and counting the ratchet clicks.)
d. With parking brake pedal completely returned, make sure there is no drag on rear brake. Pedal stroke : 4
− 5 notches
