WARNING
●Gasoline is extremely flammable and
highly explosive under certain condi-
tions. You could be burned or seriously
injured if it is misused or mishandled.
Always stop the engine and do not
smoke or allow open flames or sparks
near the vehicle when refueling. ●
Do not attempt to top off the fuel tank
after the fuel pump nozzle shuts off
automatically. Continued refueling may
cause fuel overflow, resulting in fuel
spray and possibly a fire.
● Use only an original equipment type
fuel-filler cap as a replacement. It has a
built-in safety valve needed for proper
operation of the fuel system and emis-
sion control system. An incorrect cap
can result in a serious malfunction and
possible injury. It could also cause
the
Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL) to come on.
● Never pour fuel into the throttle body to
attempt to start your vehicle.
● Do not fill a portable fuel container in
the vehicle or trailer. Static electricity
can cause an explosion of flammable
liquid, vapor or gas in any vehicle or
trailer. To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death when filling portable fuel
containers:
– Always place the container on the ground when filling.
– Do not use electronic devices when filling.

WARNING
●The exhaust gas and the exhaust sys-
tem are very hot. Keep people, animals
or flammable materials away from the
exhaust system components.
● Do not stop or park the vehicle over
flammable materials such as dry grass,
waste paper or rags. They may ignite
and cause a fire.
CAUTION
● Do not use leaded gasoline. Deposits
from leaded gasoline will seriously re-
duce the three-way catalyst’s ability to
help reduce exhaust pollutants.
● Keep your engine tuned up. Malfunc-
tions in the ignition, fuel injection, or
electrical systems can cause overrich
fuel flow into the three-way catalyst,
causing it to overheat. Do not keep driv-
ing if the engine misfires, or if notice-
able loss of performance or other un-
usual operating conditions are
detected. Have the vehicle inspected
promptly by a NISSAN dealer. ●
Avoid driving with an extremely low fuel
level. Running out of fuel could cause
the engine to misfire, damaging the
three-way catalyst.
● Do not race the engine while warming it
up.
● Do not push or tow your vehicle to start
the engine.
DRIVING PRECAUTIONS
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher
rollover rate than other types of vehicles.
They have larger tires and higher ground clear-
ance than passenger cars to make them capable
of performing in a variety of applications. This
gives them a higher center of gravity than ordinary
cars. An advantage of higher ground clearance is
a better view of the road, allowing you to antici-
pate problems. However, they are not designed
for cornering at the same speeds as conventional
2-wheel drive vehicles any more than low-slung
sports cars are designed to perform satisfactorily
under off-road conditions. If at all possible, avoid
sharp turns at high speeds. As with other vehicles
of this type, failure to operate this vehicle cor-
rectly may result in loss of control or vehicle
rollover. In a rollover crash, an unbelted person is
significantly more likely to die than a person wear-
ing a seat belt. A loaded vehicle with a higher center of gravity
may handle differently than an unloaded vehicle.
The risk of loss of control or vehicle rollover
increases as more cargo is loaded in the vehicle.
The risk increases because the cargo placed in
the vehicle raises the vehicle’s center of gravity .
As a result, the van handles differently from other
ordinary passenger vehicles and it has less resis-
tance to rollover which can make it more difficult
to control in an emergency situation. Placing any
load on the roof also raises the center of gravity
and increases the potential for rollover. Do not
overload your vehicle and make sure the load is
evenly distributed.
To reduce the risk of loss of control or vehicle
rollover drive at slower speed, avoid abrupt steer-
ing changes and increase your following distance
and allow for increased stopping distance.
Be sure to read the driving safety precautions in
this section.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM (TPMS)
Each tire, including the spare (if provided) ,
should be checked monthly when cold and in-
flated to the inflation pressure recommended by
the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard
or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has
tires of a different size than the size indicated on

Replacing the halogen headlight bulb
The headlight is a semi-sealed beam type which
uses a replaceable headlight (halogen) bulb. See
a NISSAN dealer.
If the vehicle is equipped with aftermarket acces-
sories, it may be necessary to re-aim the head
lamps. For additional information, refer to
NISSAN NV2500/3500 Body Builders Guide for
aiming instructions. An electronic copy of the
NISSAN NV2500/3500 Body Builders Guide is
available at www.nissancommercialvehicles.com
or contact a NISSAN dealer.
CAUTION
●High pressure halogen gas is sealed
inside the halogen bulb. The bulb may
break if the glass envelope is scratched
or the bulb is dropped.
● When handling the bulb, do not touch
the glass envelope.
● DO NOT TOUCH THE BULB WITH BARE
HANDS. ●
Do not leave the bulb out of the head-
light reflector for a long period of time
as dust, moisture and smoke may enter
the headlight body and affect the per-
formance of the headlight.
● Aiming is not necessary after replacing
the bulb. When aiming is necessary,
contact a NISSAN dealer.
NOTE:
Use the same number and wattage as
shown in the chart.
Fog may temporarily form inside the lens of the
exterior lights in the rain or in a car wash. A
temperature difference between the inside and
the outside of the lens causes the fog. This is not
a malfunction. If large drops of water collect
inside the lens, contact a NISSAN dealer.

CAUTION
● High pressure halogen gas is sealed
inside the halogen bulb. The bulb may
break if the glass envelope is scratched
or the bulb is dropped.
