*1: For additional information, see “Engine Oil Recommendation”.
*2: As an alternative to this recommended oil, SAE 5W-30 conventional petroleum based oil may be used and meet all specificatio ns
and requirements necessary to maintain the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
*3: NISSAN recommen ds Genuine NISSAN Ester Oil av ailable at a NISSAN dealer.
*4: Use only Genuine NISSAN CVT Fluid NS -3, using automatic transmission fluid other than Genuine NISSAN CVT Fluid NS-3
will damage the CVT, which is not covered by the NISSAN new vehicle limited warranty.
*5: Use of a power steering fluid other than Genuine NISSAN E-PSF will prevent the power steering system from operating properly.
*6: Available in mainland U. S.A. through a NISSAN dealer.
*7: For additional information, see "Air conditioner specification label".
FOR USA AND CANADA : En gine Oil RecommendationINFOID:0000000009464537
NISSAN recommends the use of an energy conserving o il in order to improve fuel economy. Select only
engine oils that meet the American Petroleum Institut e (API) certification and International Lubricant Standard-
ization and Approval Committee (ILSAC) certificati on and SAE viscosity standard. These oils have the API
certification mark on the front of the container. Oils which do not have the specified quality label should not be
used as they could cause engine damage.

< ECU DIAGNOSIS INFORMATION >[IPDM E/R]
IPDM E/R (INTELLIGENT POWER DI
STRIBUTION MODULE ENGINE ROOM)
IGNITION RELAY MALFUNCTION DETECTION FUNCTION
• IPDM E/R monitors the voltage at the contact circuit and excitation coil circuit of the ignition relay inside it.
• IPDM E/R judges the ignition relay error if the voltage differs between the contact circuit and the excitation
coil circuit.
• If the ignition relay cannot turn OFF due to contact seiz ure, it activates the tail lamp relay for 10 minutes to
alert the user to the ignition relay malfunction when the ignition switch is turned OFF.
NOTE:
The tail lamp turns OFF when the ignition switch is turned ON.
FRONT WIPER CONTROL
IPDM E/R detects front wiper stop posit ion by a front wiper auto stop signal.
When a front wiper auto stop signal is in the conditions listed below, IPDM E/R stops power supply to wiper
after repeating a front wiper 10 second activation and 20 second stop five times.
NOTE:
This operation status can be confirmed on the IPDM E/ R “Data Monitor” that displays “BLOCK” for the item
“WIP PROT” while the wiper is stopped.
STARTER MOTOR PROTECTION FUNCTION
IPDM E/R turns OFF the starter control relay to protect the starter motor when the starter control relay remains
active for 90 seconds.
DTC IndexINFOID:0000000009461605

• The output speed sensor generates the ON-OFF pulse (short waveform) in proportion to the rotating body
speed which is “The higher the rotating body speed is, t he faster the change cycle is”. The TCM judges the
rotating speed from the changing cycle of this pulse signal.

• When pressure is applied to the metal diaphragm in the secondary pressure sensor, the metal diaphragm is deformed, resulting in voltage change. TCM evaluates the secondary pressure from its voltage change. Volt-
age is increased along with pressure increase.
CVT CONTROL SYSTEM : Primar y Pressure Solenoid ValveINFOID:0000000009463971
• The primary pressure solenoid valve is installed to control valve.
• The primary pressure solenoid valve controls the pr imary reducing valve. For information about the primary
reducing valve, refer to TM-27, "TRANSAXLE : Component Description"
.
• The primary pressure solenoid valve uses the linear solenoid valve [N/H (normal high) type].
NOTE:
• The principle of the linear solenoid valve utilizes the fa ct that the force pressing on the valve spool installed
inside the coil increases nearly in proportion to the current . This allows it to produce a fluid pressure that is
proportional to this pressing force.
