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 “Capaci-
ties 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

DIESEL FUEL-FILLER CAP
WARNING
●Diesel fuel is extremely flammable and
highly explosive under certain condi-
tions. You could be burned or seriously
injured if it is misused or mishandled.
Always stop the engine and do not
smoke or allow open flames or sparks
near the vehicle when refueling. ●
Do not attempt to top off the fuel tank
after the fuel pump nozzle shuts off
automatically. Continued refueling may
cause fuel overflow, resulting in fuel
spray and possibly a fire.
● Use only an original equipment type
fuel-filler cap as a replacement. It has a
built-in safety valve needed for proper
operation of the fuel system and emis-
sion control system. An incorrect cap
can result in a serious malfunction and
possible injury. It could also cause
the
Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL) to come on.
● Do not use starting fluids with this en-
gine. It is equipped with an intake air
heater. The use of starting fluid could
cause an explosion, fire, personal in-
jury, system or engine damage.
● Do not fill a portable fuel container in
the vehicle or trailer. Static electricity
can cause an explosion of flammable
liquid, vapor or gas in any vehicle or
trailer. To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death when filling portable fuel
containers:
– Always place the container on the ground when filling. – Do not use electronic devices when
filling.
– Keep the pump nozzle in contact with the container while you are fill-
ing it.
– Use only approved portable fuel con- tainers for flammable liquid.
CAUTION
●For additional information, refer to the
“Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)” in
the “Instruments and Controls” section
of the Titan Owner’s Manual.
● If fuel or Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) is
spilled on the vehicle body, flush it away
with water to avoid paint damage

4-2Fuel and Refueling

The dry paper type filter element may be cleaned
and reused. Replace it according to the mainte-
nance log shown in the “Titan Owner’s Manual.”
To remove the air cleaner filter:1. Unlatch the clips
Aand move the air
cleaner cover upward.
2. Remove the air cleaner filter.
3. Wipe the inside of the air cleaner filter hous- ing and the cover with a damp cloth. NOTE:
After installing a new air cleaner filter,
make sure the air cleaner cover is seated in
the housing and latch the clips.
WARNING
●
Operating the engine with the air
cleaner removed can cause you or oth-
ers to be burned. The air cleaner not
only cleans the air, it stops the flame if
the engine backfires. If it isn’t there, and
the engine backfires, you could be
burned. Do not drive with the air cleaner
removed, and be careful when working
on the engine with the air cleaner
removed.
● Never pour fuel into the air intake sys-
tem or attempt to start the engine with
the air cleaner removed. Doing so could
result in serious injury.
● Do not use starting fluids with this en-
gine. The use of starting fluid could
cause an explosion, fire, personal in-
jury, system or engine damage.
CAUTION
● Operating the engine with the air
cleaner removed can cause damage to
the turbocharger and major engine
damage.
● Never pour fuel into the intake or at-
tempt to start the engine with the air
cleaner removed. Doing so could result
in engine damage.
IN-CABIN MICROFILTER
The in-cabin microfilter restricts the entry of air-
borne dust and pollen particles and reduces
some objectionable outside odors. The filter is
located behind the glove box. For additional in-
formation on change intervals, refer to “Gasoline
Standard Maintenance orDiesel Standard
Maintenance in theMaintenance and sched-
ules section of this manual.
If replacement is required, it is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
