Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine FUEL RECOMMENDATION
Petrol engine
Unleaded petrol with an octane rating of at least 95
(RON) must be used.
CAUTION
Do not use leaded petrol. Using leaded petrol will
damage the catalytic converter.
Diesel engine
EN590 Diesel fuel of at least 51 cetane must be
used.
NOTE
Use only low sulphur diesel.
If two types of diesel fuel are available, use summer
or winter fuel properly according to the following
temperature conditions.
Above –7°C (20°F)...Summer type diesel fuel.
Below–7°C(20°F)...Wintertypedieselfuel.
If you are in any doubt, please consult a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop.
CAUTION
Do not use home heating oil, petrol or other
alternate fuels in the diesel engine, this can
cause engine damage.
Do not add petrol or other alternate fuels to
diesel fuel.
Do not use summer fuel at temperatures be-
low –7°C (20°F). The cold temperatures will
cause wax to form in the fuel. As a result, it
may prevent the engine from running
smoothly.
RECOMMENDED SAE VISCOSITY
NUMBER Petrol engine oil
5W-30 is preferable. If 5W-30 is not available,
select the viscosity from the chart, that is suit-
able for the outside temperature range.
Diesel engine oil
K9K engine without DPF:
5W-30 is preferable. If 5W-30 is not available,
select the viscosity from the chart, that is suit-
able for the outside temperature range.
M9R engine without DPF:
ONLY use 5W40 or 0W40
K9K and M9R engine with DPF (where fitted)
or R9M engine:
ONLY use 5W30 low SAPS
Manual gear oil
For manual transmission:
75W80 or 75W85 (depending on the manual
transmission type) is preferable.
For transfer and rear differential:
– 80W90 is preferable.
– For hot areas: 90 is suitable for ambient tem-
peratures below 40 °C.
– For very hot areas: 140 for the differential gear.

* : with roof rail When planning to travel in another country,
you
should first find out if the fuel available is suitable for
your vehicle’s engine.
Using fuel with too low octane/cetane rating may
cause engine damage. Therefore, avoid taking your
vehicle to areas where appropriate fuel is not avail-
able.
When transferring your vehicle registration to an-
other country, check with the appropriate authori-
ties that the vehicle complies with the requirements
as it may not be possible to adapt it. In some cases,
a vehicle cannot meet the legal requirements and in
other cases, it may be necessary to modify the ve-
hicle to meet specific laws and regulations.
The laws and regulations for motor vehicle emission
control and safety standards vary according to the
country; therefore, vehicle specifications may differ.
NISSAN is not responsible for any inconvenience
when the vehicle is taken and registered into an-
other country. The necessary modifications,
transportation and registration are the owner’s
responsibility.
