FUEL RECOMMENDATION:
Gas engine only
Use unleaded regular gasoline with an octane
rating of at least 87 AKI (Anti-Knock Index) num-
ber (Research octane number 91) .
CAUTION
●Using a fuel other than that specified
could adversely affect the emission
control system, and may also affect the
warranty coverage.
● Under no circumstances should a
leaded gasoline be used, because this
will damage the three-way catalyst.
● Do not use E-15 or E-85 fuel in your
vehicle. Your vehicle is not designed to
run on E-15 or E-85 fuel. Using E-15 or
E-85 fuel in a vehicle not specifically
designed for E-15 or E-85 fuel can ad-
versely affect the emission control de-
vices and systems of the vehicle. Dam-
age caused by such fuel is not covered
by the NISSAN New Vehicle Limited
Warranty. ●
Do not use fuel that contains the octane
booster methylcyclopentadienyl man-
ganese tricarbonyl (MMT) . Using fuel
containing MMT may adversely affect
vehicle performance and vehicle emis-
sions. Not all fuel dispensers are la-
beled to indicate MMT content, so you
may have to consult your gasoline re-
tailer for more details. Note that Fed-
eral and California laws prohibit the use
of MMT in reformulated gasoline.
● U.S. government regulations require
ethanol dispensing pumps to be identi-
fied by a small, square, orange and
black label with the common abbrevia-
tion or the appropriate percentage for
that region.
For additional information, refer to “Recom-
mended fluids/lubricants and capacities” in the
“Technical and consumer information” section of
the “Owner’s Manual”.
Diesel engine only
For additional information, refer to “Fuel recom-
mendation” in the “Titan Diesel Owner’s Manual”.
ENGINE OIL RECOMMENDATION:
Gas engine only ● Genuine NISSAN engine oil or equivalent
● Engine oil with API Certification Mark
● Viscosity SAE 0W-20
For additional information, refer to “Engine oil and
oil filter recommendations” in the “Technical and
consumer information” section of this manual.
Diesel engine only
For additional information, refer to “Engine oil
recommendation” in the “Titan Diesel Owner’s
Manual”.
COLD TIRE PRESSURE:
For additional information, refer to “Tire and load-
ing information label” in the “Technical and con-
sumer information” section of this manual.
The label is typically located on the driver side
center pillar or on the driver’s door. For additional
information, refer to “Wheels and tires” in the
“Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section of this
manual.
GAS STATION INFORMATION

Preventive maintenance is the easiest and least
expensive type of maintenance. Keep records of
regularly scheduled maintenance and follow the
maintenance schedule recommendations out-
lined in the “Titan Owner’s Manual”.
Use the correct fuel, lubricating oil, and coolant in
your engine. Blending engine oil with fuel is pro-
hibited for engines with an aftertreatment system.
For additional information refer to the “Capacities
and Specifications” section in this manual.
A NISSAN dealership knows your vehicle. When
you require any service or have any questions,
they will be glad to assist you with the extensive
resources available to them.
DIESEL ENGINE OPERATION
The operation of the diesel engine in your new
vehicle varies from the operation of traditional
gasoline engines found in other vehicles. Read-
ing this supplement will familiarize you and other
operators of the vehicle with the unique mainte-
nance and operating procedures that will prolong
the life of the diesel engine and related systems.
ENGINE BREAK-IN
RECOMMENDATIONS
●Warm up the engine before operating it un-
der load
● Do not operate the engine at idle for ex-
tended periods
● Prevent engine lugging by selecting the ap-
propriate transmission gear
● Monitor the vehicle oil pressure and tem-
perature gauges
● Check fluid levels frequently (Oil & Coolant)
● Vary the throttle position at highway speeds
when carrying weight or towing
NOTE:
Extended light or no load operation will
extend the time before the engine reaches
its full efficiency. If the engine is operated
in this manner, reduced fuel economy and
power may be observed.
The aforementioned procedure should be ob-
served for the first 6,000 miles. The engine run-in
is improved by operating the vehicle under load.
DIESEL FUEL SYSTEM
The diesel engine fuel system is a pressurized
two-stage filtration system and consists of: ● A frame-mounted primary (stage 1) fuel filter
containing water/fuel separator, electric fuel
pump, and water in fuel drain valve
● An engine-mounted secondary (stage 2)
fuel filter
● A fuel injector for each cylinder (8 total)
● A high-pressure fuel pump
● A high-pressure fuel rail for each cylinder
bank (2 total)
● High-pressure fuel lines from the high-
pressure fuel pump to the right bank fuel rail,
right bank fuel rail to the left bank fuel rail,
and fuel rails to fuel injectors.
The stage 1 fuel filter separates water and filters
impurities from the fuel. The stage 2 fuel filter
filters finer impurities from the diesel fuel. The
stage 1 and stage 2 fuel filters should be
changed at the recommended service interval or
when indicated by the information display. For
additional information, refer to the “Titan Owner’s
Manual”.
GENERAL INFORMATION
1-2Introduction

The water/fuel separator should be drained when
indicated by illumination of the water in fuel warn-
ing light.
Proper fuel filter maintenance and prompt water
draining when the water in the fuel filter warning
light illuminates is essential to prevent damage to
fuel injection system components. Ignoring the
water in fuel warning light can cause your vehicle
to go into a reduced power mode.
ENGINE PROTECTION MODE
The diesel engine in this vehicle is equipped with
electronically controlled fuel and emission sys-
tems. Both systems monitor engine temperatures
and pressures, and then modify engine operation
accordingly. It is normal for the diesel engine to
operate under these modified conditions for
short durations of time. If the engine operates
under the modified conditions for extended peri-
ods of time, and the service engine soon light is
illuminated, have the system checked. It is recom-
mended you visit a NISSAN dealer for this service
as soon as possible.
LUBRICATION SYSTEM
It is important to change the engine oil at the
recommended service intervals to maintain oil
viscosity. Extending the oil and filter change inter-
val beyond the recommended interval can nega-
tively affect engine performance, fuel economyand engine life. For additional information, refer to
the “Do-it-yourself” section of this manual.
GLOW PLUGS
The diesel engine glow plug system consists of:
● Eight Glow Plugs (one per cylinder)
● Glow Plug Control Module- Uses input from
the Engine Coolant Temperature Sensor
The glow plugs are energized momentarily when
the ignition is first turned on. The length of time
that the glow plugs are energized varies depend-
ing on engine and environmental conditions. The
required time for the glow plugs to be energized
decreases as coolant temperature increases. For
additional information, refer to the “Starting and
stopping the engine” section of this manual.
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
SYSTEM
Your vehicle is equipped with a diesel particulate
filter in the exhaust system. The diesel particulate
filter reduces carbon emissions by trapping ex-
haust particulates (soot) before they reach the
tailpipe. You must properly maintain your diesel
particulate filter in order for it to function properly.
Regeneration of the diesel particulate filter oc-
curs automatically during operation above 5 mph
(8 km/h) and requires no actions from the driver.
If you do a lot of idling or stop and go driving, pay attention to maintenance messages that alert you
when you need to drive to activate the automatic
regeneration process. For additional information,
refer to the ”Automatic Regeneration” in the “Do-
it-yourself” section of this manual.
SELECTIVE CATALYTIC REDUCTION
SYSTEM
Your vehicle is equipped with a selective catalytic
reduction system designed to reduce emission
levels of nitrogen oxides from the exhaust of your
diesel engine. This system relies on the use of
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) that you must replen-
ish at certain intervals. Failure to maintain proper
DEF levels or if the DEF becomes contaminated
will result in vehicle speed limitation to 5 mph. For
additional information, refer to the ”Meters and
gauges” and “Capacities and Specifications”
sections of this manual.
Introduction1-3

3. Allow the engine to idle for at least 30 sec-onds after starting. Do not race the engine
while warming it up. Drive at moderate
speed for a short distance first, especially in
cold weather.
In cold weather, keep the engine running for
a minimum of 2–3 minutes before shutting it
off. Starting and stopping the engine over a
short period of time may make the vehicle
more difficult to start.
SWITCHING ENGINE OFF
Press the ignition to the off position.
To prolong the engine life (especially after ex-
tended high speed, high ambient temperature, or
during heavy load operation, such as trailering) , it
is recommended that a hot engine be idled for
3–5 minutes before shutting down. This allows
the turbocharged engine to cool down.
ENGINE BREAK-IN
RECOMMENDATIONS
● Warm up the engine before operating it un-
der load.
● Do not operate the engine at idle for ex-
tended periods.
● Prevent engine lugging by selecting the ap-
propriate transmission gear. ●
Monitor the vehicle oil pressure and tem-
perature gauges.
● Check fluid levels frequently (oil and cool-
ant) .
● Vary the throttle position at highway speeds
when carrying weight or towing.
NOTE:
Extended light or no load operation will
extend the time before the engine reaches
its full efficiency. If the engine is operated
in this manner reduced fuel economy and
power may be observed.
The aforementioned procedure should be ob-
served for the first 6,000 miles. The engine run-in
is improved by operating the vehicle under load.
REMOTE START (if so equipped)
CAUTION
Laws in some jurisdictions prohibit use of
remote start. Vehicles started with the remote start require the
ignition switch to be placed in the ON position
before the shift lever can be moved from the P
(Park) position. To place the ignition switch to the
ON position, follow these steps:
1. Make sure that the Intelligent Key is on you.
2. Apply the brake.
3. Press the ignition switch once to the ON position.
For additional information, refer to “NISSAN In-
telligent Key®” in the “Pre-driving checks and
adjustments” section of your owner’s manual.
ENGINE BLOCK HEATER (if so
equipped)
The power cable to operate the heater is avail-
able as a service part from an authorized NISSAN
dealer.
For additional information, refer to “Engine block
heater” in the “Starting and Driving” section of
your owner’s manual.
Starting and Stopping the Engine3-3

CAUTION
Be sure to remove any old gasket material
remaining on the sealing surface of the
engine. Failure to do so could lead to an
oil leak and engine damage.7. Fill the new filter with clean engine oil.
8. Coat the gasket on the new filter with clean engine oil.
9. Screw on the oil filter until a slight resistance is felt, then tighten an additional 3/4 turn.
10. Start the engine and check for leakage around the oil filter. Correct as required.
11. Install skid plate in reverse order of removal.
12. Turn the engine off and wait more than 10 minutes. Check the oil level. Add engine
oil if necessary.
CAUTION
Your vehicle may require more frequent
maintenance if it operates on biodiesel
blends between 6% and 10% (B6 and B10) .
To avoid damage to your vehicle, the oil,
oil filter, and fuel filter will need to be
replaced after a shorter time interval than
if your vehicle was operating on pure
petroleum-based diesel. For additional in-
formation, refer to the “Maintenance” sec-
tion in the “Titan Owner’s Manual.”
FUEL FILTER REPLACEMENT (stage
1)
NOTE:
● It is possible the “Low Fuel Pressure
Service Fuel System” message will dis-
play on the vehicle information display
after fuel filter replacement due to air
being introduced into the fuel system.
