WARNING
●Stay clear from the exhaust outlet and
exhaust gases. These can cause burns
or personal injury.
● To avoid the risk of personal injury or
fire, do not park the vehicle over flam-
mable materials such as dry grass,
waste paper or rags, as hot vehicle com-
ponents may ignite them.
CAUTION
To maintain maximum Diesel Particulate
Filter (DPF) performance, follow these
precautions:
● Use ultra low-sulfur fuel.
● Use an engine oil specified by NISSAN.
For additional information, refer to
“Recommended fluids/lubricants and
capacities” in the “Technical and con-
sumer information” section of this
manual. If an engine oil not specified by
NISSAN is used, it could cause DPF
malfunction or reduced fuel efficiency.
● Do not modify the DPF, muffler or ex-
haust pipe. Otherwise it could affect the
DPF performance and cause a
malfunction. ●
Do not kick or hit the DPF. The DPF has
a built-in catalyst system in the muffler.
Such an impact could cause DPF
damage.
The DPF reduces the amount of materials that
affect the environment by collecting particulate
matter included in exhaust gases. Normally, par-
ticulate matter accumulated in the DPF is auto-
matically burned and converted to harmless sub-
stances during driving. However, particulate
matter collected in the DPF cannot be burned
under the following conditions: ● When vehicle speed remains below 5 mph
(8 km/h) for a long period of time.
● When the engine is frequently stopped and
restarted within 10 minutes.
● When the vehicle is frequently used for short
journeys of 10 minutes or less.
● When the engine is frequently stopped be-
fore it has warmed up.
In these cases, it becomes difficult to burn par-
ticulate matter that has accumulated in the DPF.
As a result, the DPF warning light will
illuminate/blink and one of the following mes-
sages will display on the vehicle information dis-
play (in order of severity): ●
Exhaust Filter Overloaded See Owners
Manual for Drive Pattern
● Exhaust Filter Overloaded Engine Power
Reduced See Owners Manual
● Exhaust Filter Overloaded Immediate Ser-
vice Required
For additional information, refer to the “Meters
and Gauges section of this manual.
CAUTION
●If the vehicle continues to be driven
with the DPF warning light illuminated
and without doing the regeneration
process, the fail-safe will limit the en-
gine revolutions and/or torque. In this
case, it is recommended to contact a
NISSAN dealer to have the Service Re-
generation procedure performed.

Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) storage
The shelf life of DEF is limited, whether it is stored
in containers or in the vehicle’s diesel exhaust
fluid tank. There are a variety of factors that can
contribute to reducing DEF’s shelf life, particu-
larly temperature and duration.
To increase shelf life when storing DEF, keep the
following in mind:● Avoid contamination by storing in sealed
containers.
● Protect from direct sunlight.
● Store DEF at temperatures between 23°F
and 77°F (-5°C and 25°C) to protect from
overheating or freezing.
DEF has a minimum expected shelf life of
18 months, but its shelf life will be reduced if the
above conditions are not met.
It will be necessary to recheck the DEF concen-
tration if it has been stored for an extensive period
of time, or if it has been exposed to water. More
information can be found in the manufacturer’s
Owner’s Manual.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) disposal
Always check with local authorities for regula-
tions on proper disposing processes and re-
quirements for DEF.
ENGINE OIL AND OIL FILTER
RECOMMENDATIONS
Selecting the correct oil
NOTE:
The factory fill oil may include a red dye
that that is added for manufacturing quality
processes. The dye makes the oil appear to
be red. This is normal. The red dye will be
flushed from the engine after approxi-
mately 4-5 oil changes.
It is essential to choose the correct grade, quality
and viscosity engine oil to ensure satisfactory engine life and performance. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Recommended fluids/lubricants
and capacities” in this section. NISSAN recom-
mends the use of an energy conserving oil in
order to improve fuel economy.
Select only engine oils that meet the Cummins®
Engineering Standard (CES) classification (CES
20081) and American Petroleum Institute (API)
certification (API CJ-4, Low Ash Oil) and SAE
viscosity standard (10W-30 or 5W-40) . These
oils have the API certification mark and CES
20081 on the container. Oils which do not have
the specified information on the label should not
be used as they could cause engine damage.
