PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
NOTE:
(1) After 40,000 miles (64,000 km) or 48 months, inspect every 10,000 miles (16,000 km) or 12 months. Replace the drive belts if found
damaged.
(2) If operating mainly in dusty conditions, more frequent maintenance may be required.
(3) Maintenance-free item. For service procedures, refer to FL section.
(4) First replacement interval is 105,000 miles (168,000 km) or 84 months. After first replacement, replace every 75,000 miles (120,000
km) or 60 months.
(5) Use only Genuine NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze / Coolant (blue) or equivalent with proper mixture ratio of 50% antifreeze and 50%
demineralized or distilled water. Mixing any other type of coolant or the use of non-distilled water will reduce the life expec tancy of the
factory-fill coolant.
(6) Replace spark plug when the spark plug gap exceeds 1.35 mm (0.053 in), even if within specified periodic replacement mileag e.
(7) Periodic maintenance is not required. However, if valve noise increases, inspect valve clearance.
*: Maintenance items and intervals with “*” are recommended by NISSAN for reli able vehicle operation. The owner need not perform
such maintenance in order to maintain the emission warranty or manufacturer recall liability. Other maintenance items and inter vals are
required.

CHASSIS AND BODY MAINTENANCE
TIRE ROTATION
• Follow the maintenance schedule for tire rotation service intervals.Refer to MA-7, "
Introduction of Periodic Maintenance".
• Rotate the wheel and tires front to back in the pattern as shown.
• When installing the wheel, tighten wheel nuts to the specified torque.
WARNING:
• After rotating the tires, check and adjust the tire pressure.
• Retighten the wheel nuts when the vehicle has been driven
for 1,000 km (600 mi) (also in case of a flat tire, etc.).
• Do not include the spare tire when rotating the tires.
CAUTION:
• When installing wheels, ti ghten them diagonally by dividing the work two to three times in order to
prevent the wheels from d eveloping any distortion.
• Be careful not to tighten the wh eel nuts to a torque exceeding speci fication to prevent strain on the
disc rotor.
• Use Genuine NISSAN wheel nuts.
• Perform the ID registration after tire rotation. Refer to WT-22, "
Work Procedure".
BRAKE FLUID LEVEL AND LEAKS
BRAKE FLUID LEVEL AND LEAKS : InspectionINFOID:0000000012432278
BRAKE FLUID LEVEL
• Check that the fluid level in the reservoir tank is within the specified
range between the MAX – MIN lines as shown.
• Visually check for any brake fluid leakage around the reservoir tank.
• Check the brake system for any leakage if the fluid level is extremely low (lower than MIN).
• Check the brake system for fluid leakage if the warning lamp
remains illuminated even after the parking brake is released.
• Check the reservoir tank for foreign matter (e.g., dust) and oils other than brake fluid.
BRAKE LINES AND CABLES
BRAKE LINES AND CABLES : InspectionINFOID:0000000012432279
BRAKE LINES
1. Check brake lines (pipes and hoses) for cracks, deterioration or other damage. Replace any damaged parts.
2. Check for brake fluid leaks by fully depressing brake pedal while engine is running.
CAUTION:
Retighten the applicable conn ection to the specified torque
and repair any abnormal (damag ed, worn or deformed) part
if any brake fluid leaks are present.
PARKING BRAKE CABLES
Check parking brake cables for improper attachment , leaks, chafing, abrasions, deterioration, etc.

WHEEL AND TIRE
3. Install balance weight in the position shown.CAUTION:
• Do not install the inner bala nce weight before installing
the outer balance weight.
• Before installing the balance weight, be sure to clean the mating surface of the wheel and tire.
• When installing balance weight (1) to wheel and tire, set it into the grooved area (A) on the inner wall of the wheel and tire as
shown so that the balance weight center (B) is aligned with the
balancer machine indication position (angle) (C).
CAUTION:
• Always use Genuine NISSAN adhesive balance weights.
• Balance weights are non-reusable; always replace withnew ones.
• Do not install more than three sheets of balance weights.
4. If calculated balance weight value exceeds 50 g (1.76 oz), install two balance weight sheets in line with each other as shown.
CAUTION:
Do not install one balance weight sheet on top of another.
5. Start balancer machine again.
6. Install balance weight on inner side of wheel and tire in the bal- ancer machine indication position (angle).
CAUTION:
Do not install more than two balance weights.
7. Start balancer machine. Make sure that inner and outer residual imbalance values are 5 g (0.17 oz) each or below.
8. If either residual imbalance value exceeds 5 g (0.17 oz), repeat installation procedures.
TIRE ROTATION
• Follow the maintenance schedule for tire rotation service intervals.
Refer to MA-7, "
Introduction of Periodic Maintenance".
• Rotate the wheel and tires front to back in the pattern as shown.
• When installing the wheel, tighten wheel nuts to the specified torque.
