Instruments and controls2-29
●Steering linkage
● Propeller shaft(s) and front drive shafts
● Engine air filter
● Clutch housing drain (4WD only) To help ensure smooth, safe and economical
driving, NISSAN provides two maintenance
schedules that may be used, depending upon the
conditions in which you usually drive. These
schedules contain both distance and time inter-
vals, up to 120,000 miles
(192,000 km)/144 months. For most people, the
odometer reading will indicate when service is
needed. However, if you drive very little, your
vehicle should be serviced at the regular time
intervals shown in the schedule.
After 120,000 miles (192,000 km)/144 months,
continue maintenance at the same
mileage/time intervals.
ADDITIONAL MAINTENANCE ITEMS
FOR SEVERE OPERATING
CONDITIONS
Additional maintenance items for severe
operating conditions
should be performed on
vehicles that are driven under especially de-
manding conditions. Additional maintenance
items should be performed if you primarily oper-
ate your vehicle under the following conditions:
● Repeated short trips of less than 5 miles in
normal temperatures or less than 10 miles in
freezing temperatures.
● Stop-and-go traffic in hot weather or low
speed driving for long distances. ●
Driving in dusty conditions or on rough,
muddy or salt-spread roads.
● Towing a trailer, or using a camper or car-top
carrier.
OIL CHANGE MONITOR (diesel
engine only)
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.
NOTE:
For vehicles operated in Canada, both
standard and severe maintenance items
should be performed at every interval.
