1. Fuse/fusible link holder
2. Battery
3. Engine oil filler cap
4. Engine oil dipstick
5. Brake fluid reservoir
6. Air cleaner7. Power steering fluid reservoir
8. Radiator filler cap
9. Coolant reservoir cap (pressure type)
10. Coolant reservoir
11. Window washer fluid reservoir
NOTICE
The coolant reservoir is equipped with a
pressure type cap, and the radiator is
equipped with a non-pressure type cap.
Do not switch the radiator filler cap and
the coolant reservoir cap. Doing so will
cause substandard cooling perfor-
mance and overheating.

8. With the wheel nut wrench, tighten wheelnuts alternately and evenly in the sequence
as illustrated (
*1,*2,*3,*4,*5) until
they are tight.
9. Lower the vehicle slowly until the tire
touches the ground. Then, with the wheel
nut wrench, tighten the wheel nuts securely
in the sequence as illustrated. Lower the
vehicle completely.
WARNING
.Incorrect wheel nuts or improperly
tightened wheel nuts can cause the
wheel to become loose or come off.
This could cause an accident.
. Do not use oil or grease on the
wheel studs or nuts. This could
cause the nuts to become loose.
. Retighten the wheel nuts when the
vehicle has been driven for 600
miles (1,000 km) .
WARNING
If the road wheels are hot, allow them
to cool sufficiently before tightening
the wheel nuts. Otherwise, the wheel
nuts cannot be tightened to specifica-
tion.
NOTE:
.As soon as possible, tighten the
wheel nuts to the specified torque
with a torque wrench. Wheel nut tightening torque:
Except for NISMO models
97 ft-lb (132 N´m)
NISMO models 114 ft-lb (155 N´m)
The wheel nuts must be kept tigh-
tened to specification at all times. It
is recommended that wheel nuts be
tightened to specifications at each
lubrication interval.
.Adjust tire pressure to the COLD
pressure.
COLD pressure: After the vehicle has
been parked for three hours or more
or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) .
COLD tire pressures are shown on
the Tire and Loading Information
label affixed to the driver's door
opening.
10. Securely store the jacking equipment in the vehicle.

FUEL INFORMATION
VR38 engine
Use unleaded premium gasoline with an octane
rating of at least 93 AKI (Anti-Knock Index)
number (Research octane number 98) to max-
imize vehicle performance.
If the premium gasoline specified above is not
available, you may use unleaded premium gaso-
line with an octane rating of at least 91 AKI
number (Research octane number 96) , but you
may notice a decrease in performance.
Do not use gasoline with a lower octane rating
than 91 AKI (Research octane number 96) .
NOTICE
.Using a fuel other than that speci-
fied could adversely affect the emis-
sion control systems, and may also
affect warranty coverage.
. Under no circumstances should a
leaded gasoline be used, since this
will damage the three way catalyst.
. Do not use E-15 or E-85 fuel in your
vehicle. 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 war-
ranty.
. U.S. government regulations require
ethanol dispensing pumps to be
identified by a small, square, orange
and black label with the common
abbreviation or the appropriate per-
centage for that region.
. NISSAN recommends using fuels
that contain no alcohol. However,
fuels containing up to 10% alcohol
may be used, if necessary. To avoid
serious engine damage due to in-
creased cylinder temperature, do
not use fuels that contain more
alcohol than indicated in
ªGasoline containing oxyge-
natesº page 9-4. Also, do not use
fuel additives, fuel stabilizers or fuel
deicers that contain alcohol.
For additional information, see the following
section. (
ªCapacities and recommended fluids/lubricantsº page 9-2)
ENGINE OIL RECOMMENDATION
Mobil 1 (0W-40) (100% synthetic) is the factory
fill oil. The VR38 engine with its plasma-sprayed
bores was developed using this oil. NISSAN
cannot ensure proper engine operation and
durability if other 0W-40 synthetic oil is used.
If Mobil 1 (0W-40) is not available, Mobil 1
(10W-40) (100% synthetic) may be used;
however, some performance loss may be
noticed.
See the following section for engine oil and oil
filter recommendation. (
ªCapacities and
recommended fluids/lubricantsº page 9-2)
COLD TIRE PRESSURES
The label is typically located on the driver side
center pillar or on the driver's door.
(
ªWheels and tiresº page 8-32)
NEW VEHICLE BREAK-IN PROCE-
DURES RECOMMENDATION
Follow these recommendations for the future
reliability and economy of your new vehicle.
During the first 1,200 miles (2,000 km) of
vehicle use, follow the recommendations out-
lined in this Owner's Manual. (
ªBreak-in
scheduleº page 5-39)
