Changing In-cabin MicrofilterINFOID:0000000001704739
1. Remove the glove box assembly. Refer to IP-10 .
2. Compress the air conditioner filter (1) downward while sliding it
to the RH side of the vehicle to release the upper pawl.
3. Move the bottom of air conditioner filter (1) upward as shown to
release the bottom tab, then remove it.
4. Replace the air conditioner filter with new one and install the
new filter in the A/C unit assembly.
CAUTION:
Make sure that the air conditioner filter lower tab is fully
seated, and that the air conditioner upper pawl is locked
into place securing the new filter into the A/C unit assem-
bly.
Checking Exhaust SystemINFOID:0000000001704740
Check the exhaust pipes, muffler, and exhaust mounts for improper
attachment, leaks, cracks, damage, chafing, or deterioration.
Checking CVT FluidINFOID:0000000001704741
FLUID LEVEL CHECK
Fluid level should be checked with the fluid warmed up to 50 to 80°C (122 to 176°F).
1. Check for fluid leakage.
2. With the engine warmed up, drive the vehicle to warm up the
CVT fluid. When ambient temperature is 20°C (68°F), it takes
about 10 minutes for the CVT fluid to warm up to 50 to 80°C
(122 to 176°F).
3. Park the vehicle on a level surface and set the parking brake.
4. With engine at idle, while depressing brake pedal, move the
selector lever throughout the entire shift range and return it to
the “P” position.
5. Press the tab on the CVT fluid level gauge to release the lock
and pull out the CVT fluid level gauge from the CVT fluid charg-
ing pipe.

6. Wipe fluid off the CVT fluid level gauge. Then rotate the CVT
fluid level gauge 180° and re-insert it into the CVT charging pipe
as far as it will go.
CAUTION:
Always use lint free paper towels to wipe fluid off the CVT
fluid level gauge.
7. Remove the CVT fluid level gauge and check that the fluid level
is within the specified range as shown. If the fluid level is at or
below the low side of the range, add the necessary specified
NISSAN CVT fluid through the CVT charging pipe.
CAUTION:
• Only use specified NISSAN CVT fluid.
• Do not overfill the CVT.
8. Install the CVT fluid level gauge to the CVT fluid charging pipe until it locks.
CAUTION:
When CVT fluid level gauge is installed into the CVT fluid charging pipe, make sure that the CVT
fluid level gauge is securely locked in place.
FLUID CONDITION CHECK

1. Warm up CVT fluid by driving the vehicle for 10 minutes.
• : Vehicle front
• Radiator (2)
• CVT fluid cooler hose [inlet side (3)]
• Transaxle assembly (4)
2. Drain CVT fluid from CVT fluid cooler hose [outlet side (1)] and
refill with new specified NISSAN CVT fluid in the CVT fluid
charging pipe with the engine running at idle speed.
CAUTION:
Only use the specified NISSAN CVT fluid.
3. Refill until new CVT fluid comes out from CVT fluid cooler hose [outlet side (1)].

b. Start engine and move selector lever through each gear posi-
tion. Leave selector lever in “P” position.

as it will go.
CAUTION:
Firmly fix the A/T fluid level gauge to the A/T fluid charging
pipe using the stopper attached.
f. Remove A/T fluid level gauge and note reading. If reading is at
low side of range, add A/T fluid to the A/T fluid charging pipe.
CAUTION:
Do not overfill.
4. Drive vehicle for approximately 5 minutes.
5. Re-check A/T fluid level at A/T fluid temperatures of 50 to 80°C (122 to 176°F) using “HOT” range on A/T
fluid level gauge.
CAUTION:
• When wiping the A/T fluid level gauge, always use lint-free cloth.
• Firmly fix the A/T fluid level gauge to the A/T fluid charging pipe using the stopper attached.

Inspections Before Trouble
Diagnosis" . If the A/T fluid contains frictional material (clutches, bands, etc.), or if the A/T is repaired,
overhauled, or replaced, inspect and clean the A/T fluid cooler mounted in the radiator. Refer to AT-16, "
A/
T Fluid Cooler Cleaning" .
7. Install the removed A/T fluid level gauge into the A/T fluid charging pipe.
