• If a tire balance machine has adhesion balance weight mode settings and drive-in weight mode setting,
select and adjust a drive-in weight mode suitable for wheels.
1. Set wheel on wheel balancer using the center hole as a guide. Start the tire balance machine.
2. When inner and outer imbalance values are shown on t he wheel balancer indicator, multiply outer imbal-
ance value by 1.6 to determine balance weight that should be used. Select the outer balance weight with
a value closest to the calculated value and install it to the designated outer position of, or at the desig-
nated angle in relation to the road wheel.
CAUTION:
• Do not install the inner balance weight before installing the outer balance weight.
• Before installing the balance weight, be su re to clean the mating surface of the wheel.
Indicated imbalance value × 5/3 = balance weight to be installed
Calculation example:
23 g (0.81 oz) × 5/3 = 38.33 g (1.35 oz) = 40 g (1.41 oz) balance
weight (closer to calculated balance weight value)
Note that balance weight value must be closer to the calculated
balance weight value.
Example:
37.4 g = 35 g (1.23 oz)
37.5 g = 40 g (1.41 oz)
a. Install balance weight in the position shown.
b. When installing balance weight to wheels, set it into the grooved area on the inner wall of the wheel as shown so that the balance
weight center is aligned with the wheel balancer indication posi-
tion (angle).
CAUTION:
• Always use Genuine NISSAN adhesion balance weights.
• Balance weights are not reusable; always replace withnew ones.
• Do not install more than three sheets of balance weights.
c. If calculated balance weight value exceeds 50 g (1.76 oz), install two balance weight sheets in line with each other as shown.
CAUTION:
Do not install one balance weig ht sheet on top of another.
3. Start wheel balancer again.
4. Install drive-in balance weight on inner side of road wheel in the wheel balancer indication position (angle).
CAUTION:
Do not install more than two balance weights.
5. Start wheel balancer. Make sure that inner and outer residual imbalance values are 5 g (0.18 oz) each or below.
• If either residual imbalance value exceeds 5 g (0.18 oz),repeat installation procedures.

WHEELS : RotationINFOID:0000000005403160
NOTE:
Follow the maintenance schedule for tire rotation service intervals. Refer to MA-9, "
Schedule 1" .
1. Rotate the tires on each side from front to back as shown. Do not include the spare tire when rotating the tires.
CAUTION:
When installing wheel s, tighten them diagonally by dividing
the work two to three times in order to prevent the wheels
from developing any distortion.
2. Adjust the tire pressure to specification. Refer to WT-52, "
Tire" .
3. After the tire rotation, retighten the wheel nuts after the vehicle has been driven for 1,000 km (600 miles), and also after every
wheel and tire have been installed such as after repairing a flat tire.

age.
POWER STEERING FLUID AND LINES
POWER STEERING FLUID AND LINE S : Checking Fluid LevelINFOID:0000000005403166
Check power steering fluid level with engine off, referring to the scale
on reservoir tank.
Use HOT range for fluid temperatures of 50 ° – 80 °C (122 ° – 176 °F).
Use COLD range for fluid temperatures of 0 ° – 30 °C (32° – 86°F).
CAUTION:
• Do not overfill.
• Do not reuse any used power steering fluid.
• Recommended fluid is Genuine NISSAN PSF or equivalent.
Refer to MA-13, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
POWER STEERING FLUID AND LINES : Checking Fluid LeakageINFOID:0000000005403167
Check the hydraulic piping lines for improper attachment and for
leaks, cracks, damage, loose connec tions, chafing or deterioration.
1. Run engine until fluid temperature reaches 50 ° – 80° C (122° –
176° F) in reservoir tank. Keep engine speed idle.
2. Turn steering wheel right-to-left several times.
3. Hold steering wheel at each “lock” position for five seconds to check fluid leakage.
CAUTION:
Do not hold steering wheel in a locked position for more
than 10 seconds. (There is the possibility that oil pump may
be damaged.)
4. If fluid leakage at connections is noticed, then loosen flare nut and then retighten. Do not over tighten con- nector as this can damage O-ring, washer and connector.
5. If fluid leakage from oil pump is noticed, check oil pump. Refer to ST-17
.
6. Check steering gear boots for accumulation of fluid indicating a leak from the steering gear.

Seat Belts, Buckles, Retrac tors, Anchors and Adjusters
INFOID:0000000005259686
Check the seat belt buckles, webbing, retractors, anc hors and adjusters. Replace any seat belt assembly as
necessary. Refer to SB-11, "
Seat Belt Inspection".
• Check the seat belt anchors for loose mounting bolts, damage, or excessive wear.
• Check the seat belt webbing for any damage, cuts, fraying, or excessive wear.
• Check the retractor for smooth operation.
• Check the function of the buckles by inserting the seat belt tongue and checking for proper engagement of
the buckle and press the button on the buckle to c heck for proper release of the seat belt tongue.
CAUTION:
• After any collision, inspect al l seat belt assemblies, including retractors and other attached compo-
nents, such as the guide rail set. NISSAN recomme nds replacing all seat belt assemblies in use dur-
ing a collision, unless they are not damaged an d are inspected to confirm they are operating
properly after a minor collision.
Also inspect all seat belt assemblies that are not in use during a collision, and replace any compo-
nents if damaged or not operating properly. The seat belt pre-tensioner should be replaced even if
the seat belts are not in use during a frontal collision where the driver and passenger air bags have
been deployed.
• If any component of the seat belt assembly is susp ected of being damaged or not operating prop-
erly, do not repair the component. Replace the components as an assembly.
• If the seat belt webbing is cut, frayed, or damaged then replace the seat belt assembly.
• Never lubricate the seat belt buckle or tongue.
• When replacing any seat belt assembly alw ays use a Genuine NISSAN seat belt assembly.
