WARNING
●Do not use starting fluid, such as ether,
in the air intake system. Use of such
fluid could cause engine damage
and/or personal injury.
● Do not add gasoline, alcohol or kero-
sene to diesel fuel.
CAUTION
● Read all starting instructions carefully
prior to starting your vehicle.
● When starting the engine in extremely
cold temperatures, it is recommended
to allow the engine to idle for several
minutes before driving the vehicle.
● The use of the factory engine block
heater (if so equipped) will assist in
starting the engine in extreme cold am-
bient temperatures. For additional in-
formation, refer to the “Starting and
driving” section of your owner’s manual. Engine warming
This message may display during cold starting
conditions. It is a reminder that during cold start-
ing conditions the engine may not crank immedi-
ately after pressing the ignition switch, and could
take up to approximately 4 seconds to crank. The
brake pedal must be depressed during this wait
period.
1. Verify the shift lever is in the P (Park) or N (Neutral) position. P (Park) is recommended.
The shift lever cannot be moved out of
P (Park) and into any of the other gear
positions if the ignition switch is in the
OFF position. The starter is designed not to operate if
the shift lever is in any of the driving
positions.
2. There are two ways to start your diesel en- gine.
● Push the ignition switch to the ON posi-
tion, wait up to 4 seconds for the glow
plug to warm up. Depress the brake pedal
and push the ignition switch to start the
engine.
or
● Depress the brake pedal and push the
ignition switch to start the engine. Keep
the brake pedal depressed until the glow
plug warms up. This could take up to
4 seconds. Vehicle will start.
The starter is designed to not engage
until the glow plugs have had sufficient
time to warm up. During cold tempera-
tures this could take up to 4 seconds.
CAUTION
If the engine does not start, turn the igni-
tion off and wait 10 seconds before crank-
ing again, otherwise the starter could be
damaged.
LSD2601
STARTING THE DIESEL ENGINE
3-2Starting and Stopping the Engine

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
Push 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.
