RECOMMENDED FUEL:
Use unleaded regular gasoline with an octane
rating of at least 87 AKI (Anti-Knock Index) num-
ber (Research octane number 91) .
CAUTION
●Using a fuel other than that specified
could adversely affect the emission
control system, and may also affect the
warranty coverage.
● Under no circumstances should a
leaded gasoline be used, because this
will damage the three-way catalyst.
●
Do not use E-15 or E-85 fuel in your ve-
hicle. Your vehicle is not designed to run
on E-15 or E-85 fuel. Using E-15 or E-85
fuel in a vehicle not specifically designed
for E-15 or E-85 fuel can adversely affect
the emission control devices and sys-
tems of the vehicle. Damage caused by
such fuel is not covered by the NISSAN
new vehicle limited warranty.
● U.S. government regulations require
ethanol dispensing pumps to be identi-
fied by a small, square, orange and
black label with the common abbrevia-
tion or the appropriate percentage for
that region. For additional information, refer to “Recom-
mended fluids/lubricants and capacities” in the
“Technical and consumer information” section.
ENGINE OIL RECOMMENDATION:
●
Genuine NISSAN engine oil or equivalent
● Engine oil with API Certification Mark
● Viscosity SAE 5W-30
For additional information, refer to “Engine oil and
oil filter recommendations” in the “Technical and
consumer information” section of this manual.
COLD TIRE PRESSURE:
Refer to the Tire and loading information label.
The label is typically located on the driver side
center pillar or on the driver’s door. For additional
information, refer to “Wheels and tires” in the
“Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section of this
manual.
RECOMMENDED NEW VEHICLE
BREAK-IN PROCEDURE:
During the first 1,200 mi (2,000 km) of vehicle
use, follow the break-in procedure recommenda-
tions for the future reliability and economy of your
new vehicle. For additional information, refer to
“Break-in schedule” in the “Starting and driving”
section of this manual. Follow these recommen-
dations for the future reliability and economy of
your new vehicle. Failure to follow these recom-
mendations may result in vehicle damage or
shortened engine life.
