NOTE:
Maintenance items with “” should be performed more frequently according to “Maintenance Under Severe Driving Conditions”.
(1) If towing a trailer, using a camper or car-top carrier, or driving on rough or muddy roads, change (not just inspect) oil at every
20,000 miles (32,000 km) or 24 months.
(2) For additional information, refer to “General maintenance” in this section.
9-16Maintenance and schedules

The maintenance intervals shown on the preced-
ing pages are for normal operating conditions. If
the vehicle is mainly operated under severe driv-
ing conditions as shown below, more frequent
maintenance must be performed on the following
items as shown in the table.
SEVERE DRIVING CONDITIONS
●Repeated short trips of less than 5 miles
(8 km) .
● Repeated short trips of less than 10 miles
(16 km) with outside temperatures remain-
ing below freezing. ●
Operating in hot weather in stop-and-go
“rush hour” traffic.
● Extensive idling and/or low speed driving for
long distance, such as police, taxi or door-
to-door delivery use.
● Driving in dusty conditions.
● Driving on rough, muddy or salt spread
roads.
● Towing a trailer, using a camper or a car-top
carrier.
OIL CHANGE MONITOR
This vehicle is equipped with oil change monitor.
It calculates engine oil and filter change interval
base on driving conditions. Driving in severe con-
ditions will shorten the engine oil and filter
change interval. When the Engine Oil – Service
Due Now warning appears in the vehicle informa-
tion display, the engine oil and filter need to be
replaced.
Maintenance operation: Inspect = Inspect and correct or replace as necessary.
Maintenance item Maintenance operation Maintenance interval
Brake fluid ReplaceEvery 10,000 miles (16,000 km) or 12 months
Brake pads and rotors InspectEvery 5,000 miles (8,000 km) or 6 months

Maintenance and schedules

Change intervals
The oil and oil filter change intervals for your
engine are based on the use of the specified
quality oils and filters. Using engine oil and filters
that are not of the specified quality, or exceeding
recommended oil and filter change intervals
could reduce engine life. Damage to the engine
caused by improper maintenance or use of incor-
rect oil and filter quality and/or viscosity is not
covered by the NISSAN New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
Your engine was filled with a high-quality engine
oil when it was built. You do not have to change
the oil before the first recommended change
interval. Oil and filter change intervals depend
upon how you use your vehicle.
Operation under the following conditions may
require more frequent oil and filter changes:● repeated short distance driving at cold out-
side temperatures
● driving in dusty conditions
● extensive idling
● towing a trailer
● stop and go commuting
For additional information, refer to the “Mainte-
nance and schedules” section of this manual.
AIR CONDITIONER SYSTEM
REFRIGERANT AND OIL
RECOMMENDATIONS
The air conditioner system in your NISSAN
vehicle must be charged with the refriger-
ant HFC-134a (R-134a) and NISSAN A/C
system oil Type S (DH-PS) or the exact
equivalents.
CAUTION
The use of any other refrigerant or oil may
cause severe damage to the air condition-
ing system and may require the replace-
ment of all air conditioner system
components.
The refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a) in your
NISSAN vehicle does not harm the earth’s ozone
layer. Although this refrigerant does not affect the
earth’s atmosphere, certain government regula-
tions require the recovery and recycling of any
refrigerant during automotive air conditioner sys-
tem service. A NISSAN dealer has the trained
technicians and equipment needed to recover
and recycle your air conditioner system refriger-
ant.
It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
when servicing your air conditioner system.
ENGINE
Gas engine only
SPECIFICATIONS
10-8Technical and consumer information

●While going downhill, the weight of the
trailer pushing on the tow vehicle may de-
crease overall stability. Therefore, to main-
tain adequate control, reduce your speed
and shift to a lower gear. Avoid long or
repeated use of the brakes when descend-
ing a hill, as this reduces their effectiveness
and could cause overheating. Shifting to a
lower gear instead provides “engine brak-
ing” and reduces the need to brake as fre-
quently.
● If the engine coolant temperature rises to a
high temperature, refer to “If your vehicle
overheats” in the “In case of emergency”
section of this owner’s manual.
● Trailer towing requires more fuel than normal
circumstances.
● Avoid towing a trailer for your vehicle’s first
500 miles (805 km) .
● For the first 500 miles (805 km) that you do
tow, do not drive over 50 mph (80 km/h).
● Have your vehicle serviced more often than
at intervals specified. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Maintenance schedules” in the
“Maintenance and schedule” section of this
manual. ●
When making a turn, your trailer wheels will
be closer to the inside of the turn than your
vehicle wheels. To compensate for this,
make a larger than normal turning radius
during the turn.
● Crosswinds and rough roads will adversely
affect vehicle/trailer handling, possibly caus-
ing vehicle sway. When being passed by
larger vehicles, be prepared for possible
changes in crosswinds that could affect ve-
hicle handling.
Trailer Sway Assist:
To minimize trailer sway, your vehicle may apply
braking to individual wheels based on input from
your vehicle sensors and vehicle speed. Trailer
sway control is a function of the Vehicle Dynamic
Control (VDC) system and is active when the
VDC function is enabled.
CAUTION
If the VDC-OFF switch is on (meaning VDC
system OFF) , the Trailer Sway Assist is
also disabled
When Trailer Sway Assist is in operation, the
VDC warning light blinks. When vehicle control is
regained, VDC warning light will turn OFF. For additional information about the VDC system,
refer to “Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) OFF
switch” and Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) sys-
tem” sections of this manual.
If Trailer Sway Assist activates, do the fol-
lowing:
1. Take your foot off the accelerator pedal to allow the vehicle to coast and steer as
straight ahead as the road conditions allow.
This combination will help stabilize the ve-
hicle
CAUTION
Do not try to correct trailer sway by steer-
ing or applying the brakes.
2. When the trailer sway stops, gently apply the brakes and pull to the side of the road in a
safe area.
3. Try to rearrange the trailer load so it is bal- anced. For additional information, refer to
“Pre-towing tips” in this section.
