Oil and Filter
This indicator appears when the customer set
distance comes for changing the engine oil and
filter. You can set or reset the distance for check-
ing or replacing these items. For scheduled main-
tenance items and intervals, refer to your
“NISSAN Service and Maintenance Guide.”
Tire
This indicator appears when the customer set
distance is reached for replacing tires. You can
set or reset the distance for replacing tires.WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not a
substitute for regular tire checks, includ-
ing tire pressure checks. For additional
information, refer to “Changing Wheels
and Tires” in “Maintenance & Do- It-
Yourself” section of this manual. Many
factors including tire inflation, alignment,
driving habits and road conditions affect
tire wear and when tires should be re-
placed. Setting the tire replacement indi-
cator for a certain driving distance does
not mean your tires will last that long. Use
the tire replacement indicator as a guide
only and always perform regular tire
checks. Failure to perform regular tire
checks, including tire pressure checks
could result in tire failure. Serious vehicle
damage could occur and may lead to a
collision, which could result in serious
personal injury or death.
Other
This indicator appears when the customer set
distance is reached for checking or replacing
maintenance items other than the engine oil, oil
filter and tires. Other maintenance items can in-
clude such things as air filter or tire rotation. The
distance for checking or replacing the items can
be set or reset.

plays various information that is helpful for using
the vehicle. Available items include fuel economy,
maintenance, navigation and voice recognition
information.
Menu ItemResult
Fuel Economy Displays Fuel Economy menu.
Distance to Empty (DTE) Displays an estimation of the distance that the vehicle can be driven before refueling. The DTE is constantly calculated basedon the
amount of fuel in the fuel tank and actual fuel consumption. The display is updated every 30 seconds. When the fuel level is low, the DTE
display will change to (*) .
NOTE:If the amount of fuel added while the ignition switch is OFF is small, the display just before the ignition switch is turned off may
continue to be displayed.
NOTE:When driving uphill or rounding curves, the fuel in the tank shifts, which may momentarily change the display.
Average Fuel Economy Displays the average fuel economy since the last reset. The display is updated every 30 seconds and 1/3 mi (500 m) . After a reset or
connecting the battery cables, the display might show (**.*) . Select “Reset Fuel Eco” to reset the fuel economy calculation to 0.

13.Use D (Drive)
●Use the D (Drive) and drive with the Over
Drive on as much as possible
●Driving with the Over Drive OFF or in the
L (Low) position may cause the engine to
run longer than necessary and reduce
fuel economy
NOTE:
In order to display the correct fuel
economy, reset the fuel economy meter
first.●Keep your engine tuned up.
●Follow the recommended scheduled main-
tenance.
●Keep the tires inflated to the correct pres-
sure. Low tire pressure increases tire wear
and lowers fuel economy.
●Keep the wheels in correct alignment. Im-
proper alignment increases tire wear and
lowers fuel economy.
●Use the recommended viscosity engine oil.
For additional information, refer to “Engine
oil and oil filter recommendations” in the
“Technical and consumer information” sec-
tion of this manual.4X4–I SYSTEM OPERATION
WARNING
●Do not drive beyond the performance
capability of the tires. Accelerating
quickly, sharp steering maneuvers or
sudden braking may cause loss of con-
trol, even with Intelligent 4WD engaged.
●For 4WD equipped vehicles, do not at-
tempt to raise 2 wheels off the ground
and shift the transmission to any drive
or reverse position with the engine run-
ning. Doing so may result in drivetrain
damage or unexpected vehicle move-
ment which could result in serious per-
sonal injury or vehicle damage.

B.
6. Remove the drain plug
Bwith a wrench by
turning it counterclockwise and completely
drain the oil.If the oil filter is to be changed, remove and
replace it at this time. Refer to “Changing
engine oil filter” in this section.
●Waste oil must be disposed of prop-
erly.
●Check your local regulations.
7. Clean and reinstall the drain plug and a new
washer. Securely tighten the drain plug with
a wrench. Do not use excessive force.
Drain plug tightening torque:
25 ft-lb (34 N·m)
8. Refill engine with recommended oil through
the oil filler opening, then install the oil filler
cap securely.
Refer to “Recommended fluids/lubricants
and capacities” in the “Technical and con-
sumer information” section of this manual for
drain and refill capacity.
The drain and refill capacity depends on the
oil temperature and drain time. Use these
specifications for reference only. Always use
the dipstick to determine when the proper
amount of oil is in the engine.9. Start the engine. Check for leakage around
the drain plug and oil filter. Correct as re-
quired.
