tion of General MaintenanceINFOID:0000000009464530
General maintenance includes those items which shoul d be checked during the normal day-to-day operation
of the vehicle. They are essential if the vehicle is to continue operating properly. The owners can perform
checks and inspections themselves or have their NISSAN dealers do them.
OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be performed from time to time, unless otherwise specified.
INSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked on a regular basis, such as when performing periodic maintenance, cleaning the vehicle,
etc.
Item Reference page
Tires Check the pressure with a gauge often and always prior to long distance trips.
Adjust the pressure in all tires, including the spare, to the pressure specified.
Check carefully for damage, cuts or excessive wear. MA-39
Wheel nuts
When checking the tires, make sure no nuts are missing, and check for any loose
nuts. Tighten if necessary. MA-39
Tire rotation
Tires should be rotated every 5,000 miles (8,000 km). MA-39
Tire Pressure Monitor-
ing System (TPMS)
transmitter compo-
nents Replace the TPMS transmitter grommet seal, valve core and cap when the tires
are replaced due to wear or age. WT-57
Wheel alignment and
balance If the vehicle should pull to either side while driving on a straight and level road,
or if you detect uneven or abnormal tire wear, there may be a need for wheel
alignment. If the steering wheel or seat vibrates at normal highway speeds,
wheel balancing may be needed. For additional information regarding tires, refer
to "Important Tire Safety Information" (US) or "Tire Safety Information" (Canada)
in the NISSAN Warranty Information Booklet. FSU-25
Windshield
Clean the windshield on a regular basis. Check the windshield at least every six
months for cracks or other damage. Repair as necessary. —
Windshield wiper
blades Check for cracks or wear if they do not wipe properly. —
Doors and engine
hood Check that all doors and the engine hood operate properly. Also make sure that
all latches lock securely. Lubricate if necessary. Make sure that the secondary
latch keeps the hood from opening when the primary latch is released.
When driving in areas using road salt or other corrosive materials, check for lu-
brication frequently. MA-45, "LOCKS, HING-
ES AND HOOD LATCH :
Lubricating"
Lamps
Make sure that the headlamps, stop lamps, tail lamps, turn signal lamps, and oth-
er lamps are all operating properly and installed securely. Also check headlamp
aim. Clean the headlamps on a regular basis. EXL-122
Item
Reference page
Warning lamps and
chimes Make sure that all warning lamps and chimes are operating properly. —
Windshield wiper and
washer Check that the wipers and washer operate properly and that the wipers do not
streak. —
Windshield defroster Check that the air comes out of the defroster outlets properly and in sufficient
quantity when operating the heater or air conditioner. —
Steering wheel Check that it has the specified play. Check for changes in the steering condition,
such as excessive play, hard steering or strange noises.

ALUMINUM WHEEL
1. Check tires for wear and improper inflation.
2. Check wheels for deformation, cracks and other dam age. If deformed, remove wheel and check wheel
runout.
3. Remove tire from aluminum wheel and mount wheel on a tire balance machine.
CAUTION:
DO NOT use center hole cone -type clamping machines to
hold the wheel assembly during tire removal/installation or
balancing. Damage to the wheel finish, cladding or chrome
may occur. Use only rim-type or universal lug-type clamp-
ing machines to hold the wheel assembly.
a. Set dial indicator as shown.
b. Check runout, if lateral runout (A) or radial runout (B) exceeds the limit, install a new wheel.
STEEL WHEEL
1. Check tires for wear and improper inflation.
2. Check wheels for deformation, cracks and other dam age. If deformed, remove wheel and check wheel
runout.
a. Remove tire from steel wheel and mount on a balancer machine.
b. Set two dial indicators as shown.
c. Set each dial indicator to “0”.
d. Rotate wheel and check dial indicators at several points around the circumference of the wheel.
e. Calculate runout at each point as shown below.
f. Select maximum positive runout value and the maximum nega- tive value.
Add the two values to determine total runout.
In case a positive or negative value is not available, use the
maximum value (negative or positive) for total runout.
If the total runout value exceeds the limit, replace steel wheel. Lateral Deflection (A) Refer to

BALANCING WHEELS (ADH
ESIVE WEIGHT TYPE)
Preparation Before Adjustment
Remove inner and outer balance weights from the r oad wheel. Using releasing agent, remove double-faced
adhesive tape from the road wheel.
CAUTION:
• Be careful not scratch the road wheel during removal.
• After removing double-faced adhesive tape, wipe clean traces of releasing agent from the road
wheel.
Wheel Balance Adjustment
• If a balancer machine has an adhesive weight mode setting, select the adhesive weight mode setting and skip Step 2. below. If a balancer machine only has the clip-on (rim flange) weight mode setting, follow Step 2.
to calculate the correct size adhesive weight.
1. Set road wheel on balancer machine using the cent er hole as a guide. Start the balancer machine.
2. For balancer machines that only have a clip-on (rim fl ange) weight mode setting, follow this step to calcu-
late the correct size adhesive weight to use. W hen inner and outer imbalance values are shown on the
balancer machine indicator, multiply outer imbalance value by 5/3 (1.67) to determine balance weight that
should be used. Select the outer balance weight with a value closest to the calculated value above and
install in to the designated outer position of, or at the designated angle in relation to the road wheel.
a. Indicated imbalance value × 5/3 (1.67) = balance weight to be
installed
Calculation example:
23 g (0.81 oz) × 5/3 (1.67) = 38.33 g (1.35 oz) ⇒ 40 g (1.41 oz)
balance weight (closer to calculated balance weight value)
NOTE:
Note that balance weight value must be closer to the calculated
balance weight value.
Example:
37.4 ⇒ 35 g (1.23 oz)
37.5 ⇒ 40 g (1.41 oz)
3. Install balance weight in the position shown. CAUTION:
• Do not install the inner bala nce weight before installing
the outer balance weight.
• Before installing the balance weight, be sure to clean the mating surface of the road wheel.
• When installing balance weight (1) to road wheel, set it into the
grooved area (A) on the inner wall of the road wheel as shown
so that the balance weight cent er (B) is aligned with the bal-
ancer machine indication position (angle) (C).
CAUTION:
• Always use Genuine NISSAN adhesive balance weights.
• Balance weights are non-re usable; always replace with
new ones.
• Do not install more than th ree sheets of balance weight.
