HEADLIGHTS
LED headlight (where fitted)
The LED headlight is a projector style which uses a
LED module without serviceable parts.
CAUTION
•To prevent an electric shock, never attempt to
modify or disassemble the LED headlights as-
sembly.
•If replacement is required, contact a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop.
Replacing the halogen headlight bulb
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.
•Use the same number type and wattage as
originally installed.
•Aiming is usually not necessary after replac-
ing the bulb. When aiming adjustment is nec-
essary, contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified
workshop.
•Do not leave the bulb out of the headlight
reflector for a long period of time as dust,moisture or smoke may enter the headlight
body and affect the performance of the head-
light.
The headlight is a semi-sealed beam type which
uses a replaceable headlight (halogen) bulb. A bulb
can be replaced from inside the engine compart-
ment without removing the headlight assembly.
Contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop, if
you need assistance for bulb replacement.
High beam bulb replacement:
1. Open the bonnet. For details, see “Bonnet
release” in the “3. Pre-driving checks and
adjustments” section.
2. Disconnect the negative (—) battery cable.
3. When the broken bulb is located in the headlight
assembly under the air duct, carefully remove the
air duct, see “Air duct removal” earlier in this
section.
4. Remove the connector from the back of the cover
assembly
j1.
5. Turn the cover assembly 1/4 of a turn in the anti
clockwise direction and remove the cover by dis-
connecting the internal connector
j2.
6. Push and turn the retaining pin to loosen it
j3.
7. Remove the headlight bulb. Do not shake or ro-
tate the bulb when removing it.
8. Install the new bulb in the reverse order of re-
moval.9. Re-install the covers internal connector on the
back of the bulb.
10. Re-install the cover by turning the cover assem-
bly 1/4 of a turn in the clockwise direction.
11. Re-install the connector on the back of the cover
assembly.
12. Where removed (step 3.), re-install the air duct,
bolt and clips in the reverse order of removal.
13. Reconnect the negative (—) battery cable and
close the bonnet.
Low beam bulb replacement:
1. Open the bonnet. For details, see “Bonnet
release” in the “3. Pre-driving checks and
adjustments” section.
2. Disconnect the negative (—) battery cable.
3. When the broken bulb is located in the headlight
assembly under the air duct, carefully remove the
air duct, see “Air duct removal” earlier in this
section.
4. Remove the connector from the back of the bulb
assembly
j4.
5. Turn the bulb assembly 1/8 of a turn in the anti
clockwise direction and remove the headlight
bulb
j5.
6. Install the new bulb in the headlight body by turn-
ing it clockwise until it is securely sealed within
the headlight body.
7. Re-install the connector on the back of the bulb
assembly.

FUEL INFORMATION
Petrol engine
CAUTION
Do not use leaded petrol. Using leaded petrol will
damage the catalytic converter.
MR20DD engine:
Use UNLEADED REGULAR petrol with an octane
rating of at least 91 (RON).
HRA2DDT engine:
Use UNLEADED PREMIUM petrol with an octane
rating of at least 95 (RON).
Diesel engine
Diesel fuel above 51 cetane and with less than 10
ppm of sulphur (EN590 and Euro 5 specification)
must be used.
If two types of diesel fuel are available, use summer
or winter fuel properly according to the following
temperature conditions.
•Above –7°C (20°F)...Summer type diesel fuel.
•Below–7°C(20°F)...Wintertypedieselfuel.
If you are in any doubt, please consult a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop.
CAUTION
•Do not use home heating oil, petrol or other
alternate fuels in the diesel engine, this can
cause engine damage.
•Do not add petrol or other alternate fuels to
diesel fuel.
•Do not use summer fuel at temperatures be-
low −7°C (20°F). Cold temperatures will cause
wax to form in the fuel and may prevent the
engine from running smoothly.
RECOMMENDED SAE VISCOSITY
NUMBERPetrol engine oil
5W-40 is preferable. If 5W-40 is not available,
select the viscosity from the chart, that is suit-
able for the outside temperature range.
Diesel engine oil
•K9K enginewith DPF:
ONLY use 5W30 Low SAPS
•R9M engine:
ONLY use 5W30 DPF Low SAPS

*1 : with roof rail
*2: models with Independent Multi-link type suspen-
sion (where fitted)When planning to travel in another country,you
should first find out if the fuel available is suitable for
your vehicle’s engine.
Using fuel with too low octane/cetane rating may
cause engine damage. Therefore, avoid taking your
vehicle to areas where appropriate fuel is not avail-
able.
When transferring your vehicle registration to an-
other country,check with the appropriate authori-
ties that the vehicle complies with the requirements
as it may not be possible to adapt it. In some cases,
a vehicle cannot meet the legal requirements and in
other cases, it may be necessary to modify the ve-
hicle to meet specific laws and regulations.
The laws and regulations for motor vehicle emission
control and safety standards vary according to the
country; therefore, vehicle specifications may differ.
NISSAN is not responsible for any inconvenience
when the vehicle is taken and registered into an-
other country. The necessary modifications,
transportation and registration are the owner’s
responsibility.
VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION PLATE
The plate is affixed on the B pillar as shown.
Built date
Built date is stamped on the vehicle identification
plate or on a build date plate. The built date means
the calendar month and the year in which the body
shell and power train sub-assemblies are conjoined
and the vehicle is driven or moved from the produc-
tion line.
