to prevent thevehicle frommoving. Move
the shift lever tothe ªPº(Park) position (CVT
model) orthe shift lever tothe ªNº(Neutral)
position (MTmodel) . .
Besure theignition switchisin the ªOFFº or
ªLOCKº position whenperforming anyparts
replacement orrepairs.
. Do not work under thehood while the
engine ishot. Always turnoffthe engine

. Never getunder thevehicle whileitis
supported byajack.
. Keep smoking materials, flameandsparks
away fromfuelandthebattery.
. Never connect ordisconnect eitherthe
battery orany transistorized component
connector whiletheignition switchisin the
ªONº position.
. Ongasoline enginemodels withtheMulti-
port Fuel Injection (MFI)system, thefuel
filter andfuel lines should beserviced bya
NISSAN dealerbecause thefuel lines are
under highpressure evenwhen theengine is
turned off.
. Your vehicle isequipped withanautomatic
engine cooling fan.Itmay come onatany
