ENGINE COOLANT
InspectionINFOID:0000000001702529
LEVEL CHECK
• Check if the reservoir tank engine coolant level is within the “MIN”
to “MAX” range when engine is cool.
• Adjust the engine coolant level as necessary.
CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAKS
To check for leaks, apply pressure to the cooling system using Tool.
WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious
burns could occur from high pressure coolant escaping from
the radiator.
CAUTION:
Higher pressure than specified may cause radiator damage.
Changing Engine CoolantINFOID:0000000001702530
WARNING:
• To avoid being scalded, do not change engine coolant when engine is hot.
• Wrap a thick cloth around radiator cap and carefully remove the cap. First, turn the cap a quarter of a
turn to release built-up pressure. Then turn the cap all the way.
• Be careful not to allow engine coolant to contact drive belt.
DRAINING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Open radiator drain plug (1) at the bottom of radiator, and then
remove radiator cap.
• Front
When drain all of engine coolant in the system, open water
drain plug on cylinder block. Refer to EM-76
.
CAUTION:
• Perform this step when engine is cold.
• Do not spill engine coolant on drive belt.
2. Remove reservoir tank as necessary, and drain engine coolant and clean reservoir tank before installing.
Refer to CO-11
.
3. Check drained engine coolant for contaminants such as rust, corrosion or discoloration.
If contaminated, flush the engine cooling system. Follow the "FLUSHING COOLING SYSTEM" proce-
dure.

1. Install reservoir tank if removed. Refer to CO-11.
2. Install radiator drain plug.
•If water drain plug on cylinder block is removed, close and tighten it. Refer to EM-76
.
CAUTION:
Be sure to clean radiator drain plug and install with new O-ring. Refer to CO-11, "
Component".
3. Make sure that each hose clamp has been firmly tightened.
4. Remove air duct assembly. Refer to EM-16
.
5. Disconnect heater hose (1) at position ( ) as shown.
• Front
• Reposition heater hose as high as possible.
6. Fill radiator and reservoir tank to specified level.
•Pour engine coolant through engine coolant filler neck
slowly of less than 2 (2 1/8 US qt, 1-3/4 lmp qt) a minute
to allow air in system to escape.
•Use NISSAN Genuine Engine Coolant or equivalent mixed
with water (distilled or demineralized). Fill cooling system
to specification. Refer to MA-10
.
• When engine coolant overflows disconnected heater hose,
connect heater hose, and continue filling the engine coolant, if
heater hose is disconnected.
7. Install radiator cap.
8. Install air duct assembly. Refer to EM-16
.
9. 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 the engine.
10. Stop engine and cool down to less than approximately 50°C (122°F).
• Cool down using fan to reduce the time.
• If necessary, refill radiator up to filler neck with engine coolant.
11. Refill reservoir tank to “MAX” level line with engine coolant.
12. Repeat steps 6 through 11 two or more times with radiator cap installed until engine coolant level no
longer drops.
13. Check cooling system for leaks with engine running.
14. 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.
15. Repeat step 14 three times.
16. If sound is heard, bleed air from cooling system by repeating steps 6 through 11 until engine coolant level
no longer drops.
FLUSHING COOLING SYSTEM
1. Install reservoir tank if removed. Refer to CO-11.
2. Install radiator drain plug.
•If water drain plug on cylinder block is removed, close and tighten it. Refer to EM-76
.
CAUTION:
Be sure to clean radiator drain plug and install with new O-ring. Refer to CO-11, "
Component".

SELF-DIAGNOSIS MODE FUNCTION
• Self-diagnosis can check for continuity between meter control circuit and each meter (speedometer, tachom-
eter and fuel gauge).
• Self-diagnosis can check for odo/trip meter and A/T indicator (with A/T) or CVT indicator (with CVT) seg-
ment, low-fuel level warning lamp, low water temperature indicator lamp, and high water temperature warn-
ing lamp.
OPERATION PROCEDURE

• Sea level
• Flat road
• Ambient air temperature: 20 - 30°C (68 - 86°F)
• Diagnosis is performed as quickly as possible under normal conditions.
Under different conditions [For example: ambient air temperature other than 20 - 30°C (68 - 86°F)], diagno-
sis may also be performed.
Pattern 1:
•The engine is started at the engine coolant temperature of −10 to 35°C (14 to 95°F)
(where the voltage between the ECM terminal 38 and ground is 3.0 - 4.3V).
•The engine must be operated at idle speed until the engine coolant temperature is greater than 70°C
(158°F) (where the voltage between the ECM terminal 38 and ground is lower than 1.4V).
•The engine is started at the fuel tank temperature of warmer than 0°C (32°F) (where the voltage
between the ECM terminal 43 and ground is less than 4.1V).
Pattern 2:
• When steady-state driving is performed again even after it is interrupted, each diagnosis can be conducted.
In this case, the time required for diagnosis may be extended.
Pattern 3:
• Operate vehicle following the driving pattern shown in the figure.
• Release the accelerator pedal during decelerating vehicle speed
from 90 km/h (56 MPH) to 0 km/h (0 MPH).
Pattern 4:
• The accelerator pedal must be held very steady during steady-
state driving.
• If the accelerator pedal is moved, the test must be conducted all
over again.
*1: Depress the accelerator pedal until vehicle speed is 90 km/h (56
MPH), then release the accelerator pedal and keep it released for
more than 10 seconds. Depress the accelerator pedal until vehicle
speed is 90 km/h (56 MPH) again.
*2: Checking the vehicle speed with GST is advised.
Suggested Transmission Gear Position for A/T and CVT Models
Set the selector lever in the D position (CVT), D position with the overdrive switch turned ON (A/T).
Suggested upshift speeds for M/T models
Shown below are suggested vehicle speeds for shifting into a higher gear. These suggestions relate to fuel
economy and vehicle performance. Actual upshift speeds will vary according to road conditions, the weather
and individual driving habits.
Suggested Maximum Speed in Each Gear
Downshift to a lower gear if the engine is not running smoothly, or if you need to accelerate.
Do not exceed the maximum suggested speed (shown below) in any gear. For level road driving, use the high-
est gear suggested for that speed. Always observe posted speed limits and drive according to the road condi-
tions to ensure safe operation. Do not over-rev the engine when shifting to a lower gear as it may cause
engine damage or loss of vehicle control.
