ChangingINFOID:0000000006226791
CAUTION:
 Use only Genuine NISSAN Matic S ATF. Never mix with other ATF.
 Using ATF other than Genuine NI
SSAN Matic S ATF will cause deteri oration in driveability and A/T
durability, and may damage the A/T, which is not covered by the INFINITI new vehicle limited war-
ranty.
 When filling ATF, be careful not to scatte r heat generating parts such as exhaust.
1. Step 1
a. Install the O-ring (315268E000) (A) to the charging pipe (310811EA5A) (B).
2. Step 2
a. Use CONSULT-III to check that the ATF temperature is 40 °C (104 °F) or less.
b. Lift up the vehicle.
c. Remove the drain plug from the oil pan, and then drain the ATF.
d. When the ATF starts to drip, temporarily tighten the drain plug to the oil pan. NOTE:
Never replace drain plug and drain plug gasket with new ones yet.
e. Remove overflow plug from oil pan.
f. Install the charging pipe (A) to the overflow plug hole. CAUTION:
Tighten the charging pipe by hand.
g. Install the bucket pump hose (B) to the charging pipe. CAUTION:
Insert the bucket pump hose all the way to the end of the
charging pipe.
h. Fill approximately 3 liters (3-1/8 US qt, 2-5/8 lmp qt) of the ATF.
i. Remove the bucket pump hose to remove the charging pipe, and then temporarily tighten the overflow plug to the oil pan.
CAUTION:
Quickly perform the procedur e to avoid ATF leakage from
the oil pan.
j. Lift down the vehicle.
k. Start the engine and wait for approximately 3 minutes.
l. Stop the engine.
3. Step 3
a. Repeat “Step 2”.
4. Final Step
a. Use CONSULT-III to check that the ATF temperature is 40 °C (104 °F) or less.
b. Lift up the vehicle.
c. Remove the drain plug from the oil pan, and then drain the ATF.
Recommended fluid and fluid capacity : Refer to TM-296, "General Specification".

e. Remove overflow plug from oil pan.
f. Install the charging pipe (A) to the overflow plug hole. CAUTION:
Tighten the charging pipe by hand.
g. Install the bucket pump hose (B) to the charging pipe. CAUTION:
Insert the bucket pump hose all the way to the end of the
charging pipe.
h. Fill approximately 3 liters (3-1/8 US qt, 2-5/8 lmp qt) of the ATF.
i. Remove the bucket pump hose to remove the charging pipe, and then temporarily tighten the overflow plug to the oil pan.
CAUTION:
Quickly perform the procedure to avoid ATF leakage from
the oil pan.
j. Lift down the vehicle.
k. Start the engine.
l. Make the ATF temperature approximately 40 °C (104 °F).
NOTE:
The ATF level is greatly affected by the temperat ure. Always check the ATF temperature on “ATF TEMP
1” of “Data Monitor” using CONSULT-III.
m. Park vehicle on level surface and set parking brake.
n. Shift the selector lever through each gear pos ition. Leave selector lever in “P” position.
o. Lift up the vehicle when the ATF temperature reaches 40 °C (104 °F), and remove the overflow plug from
the oil pan.
CAUTION:
Perform “Step 4-o” with the engine at idle.
p. When the ATF starts to drip, tighten the overflow plug to the oil pan to the specified torque. Refer to TM-
182, "Exploded View".
CAUTION:
Never reuse overflow plug.

 When filling ATF, be careful not to sca tter heat generating parts such as exhaust.
 Always maintain the ATF temperature within between 35 °C (95 °F) and 45 °C (113 °F) while checking
with CONSULT-III when the ATF level adjustment is performed.
