RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS
Engine Oil Recommendation
INFOID:0000000012432246
NISSAN recommends the use of an energy conservi ng oil in order to improve fuel economy.
Select only engine oils that meet the American Petroleum Institute (API) certification and International Lubrica-
tion Standardization and Approval Committee (ILSAC) ce rtification and SAE viscosity standard. These oils
have the API certification mark on the front of the container. Oils whic h do not have the specified quality label
should not be used as they could cause engine damage.
Anti-Freeze Coolant Mixture RatioINFOID:0000000012432247
The engine cooling system is filled at the factory with a pre-diluted mixture of 50% Genuine NISSAN Long Life
Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) and 50% water to provide year-round anti-freeze and coolant protection. The anti-
freeze solution contains rust and corrosion inhibitors. Additional engine cooling system additives are not nec-
essary.
WARNING:
• Do not remove the radiator or coolant reservoir cap when the engine is hot. Wait until the engine and radiator cool down. Serious burns could be caused by high pressure fluid escaping from the radia-
tor.
• The radiator is equipped with a pressure type radiator cap. To prevent engine damage, use only a
Genuine NISSAN radiator cap.
CAUTION:
• When adding or replacing coolant, be sure to use only Genuine NISSAN Lo ng Life Antifreeze/Cool-
ant (blue) or equivalent. Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) is pre-diluted to pro-
vide antifreeze protection to -34 °F (-37 °C). If additional freeze protect ion is needed due to weather
where you operate your vehicle, add Genuine NISSAN long life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) concentrate
following the directions on the container. If an equivalent coolant other than Genuine NISSAN Long
Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) is used, follow the coolant manufact urer’s instructions to maintain
minimum antifreeze protection to -34 °F (-37 °C). The use of other types of coolant solutions other
than Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) or equivalent may damage the engine
cooling system.
• Mixing any other type of coolant other than Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue),
including Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (green), or the use of non-distilled water will
reduce the life expectancy of the factory filled coolant.

GEAR OIL : Refilling
INFOID:0000000012432275
1. Remove filler plug (1) and gasket from transaxle case.
2. Fill with new gear oil until gear oil level reaches the specified limit at filler plug hole as shown.
CAUTION:
Do not start engine whil e checking gear oil level.
3. Install a new gasket on filler plug and then install filler plug to transaxle case.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse gasket.
4. Tighten filler plug to the specified torque. Refer to TM-26, "
Exploded View".
WHEELS
WHEELS : InspectionINFOID:0000000012432276
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 wheel and mount wheel on a balancer machine.
b. Set dial indicator as shown.
c. Check runout, if runout value exceeds the limit, replace wheel.
WHEELS : AdjustmentINFOID:0000000012432277
BALANCING WHEELS (ADHESIVE WEIGHT TYPE)
Preparation Before Adjustment
Remove inner and outer balance weights from the wheel and tire. Using releasing agent, remove double-faced
adhesive tape from the wheel and tire.
CAUTION:
• Be careful not to scratch the wheel and tire during removal.
• After removing double-faced adh esive tape, wipe clean all traces of releasing agent from the wheel
and tire.
Wheel Balance Adjustment
CAUTION:
• DO NOT use center hole cone-type clamping machines to hold the wheel during tire removal/installa-
tion or balancing or damage to the wheel paint, cladding or chrome may result. Use only rim-type or
universal lug-type clamping machines to hold the wheel during servicing.
• If a balancer machine has an adhesive weight mode se tting, 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 wheel and tire on balancer machine using the center hole as a guide. Start the balancer machine. Oil capacity
