DRAINING WATER
Drain the water from the fuel filter. Contact a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.:
BLEEDING THE FUEL SYSTEM
There is no need to perform any special operation to
bleed air from the system.
NISSAN Blue Citizenship
Fuel bled from the fuel filter must not be poured into
the ground, canals, rivers, etc. It should be disposed
of at a rubbish tip having proper facilities. Check
your local regulations.When checking or replacement is required, NISSAN
recommends contacting a NISSAN dealer or quali-
fied workshop for servicing.
CAUTION
•Use only Genuine NISSAN CVT Fluid NS3*. Do
not mix with other fluids.
•Using transmission fluid other than Genuine
NISSAN CVT Fluid NS3* will damage the
XTRONIC transmission, which is not covered
by the warranty.
*: For details, contact a NISSAN dealer or quali-
fied workshop.
CHECKING PARKING BRAKE
Periodically check the holding ability of the parking
brake by parking on a steep hill and restraining the
vehicle by using only the parking brake. If it does not
hold satisfactorily, see a NISSAN dealer or qualified
workshop.
CHECKING BRAKE PEDAL
If the brake pedal suddenly goes down further than
normal, the pedal feels “spongy” or the vehicle
seems to take longer to stop, see a NISSAN dealer
or qualified workshop.
WARNING
See a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop for a
brake system check if the brake pedal height
does not return to normal.
