DIESEL FUEL ENGINES
For additional information, refer to the separate
Titan Diesel Owner’s Manual.
GASOLINE FUEL ENGINES
WARNING
●Gasoline 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.
● Never pour fuel into the throttle body to
attempt to start your vehicle.
● 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.

4. Place a large drain pan under the oil filterB.
5. Loosen the oil filter with an oil filter wrench by turning it counterclockwise. Then remove
the oil filter by turning it by hand.
CAUTION
Be careful not to burn yourself. The engine
oil may be hot.
6. Wipe the engine oil filter sealing surface with a clean rag.
CAUTION
Be sure to remove any old gasket material
remaining on the sealing surface of the
engine. Failure to do so could lead to an
oil leak and engine damage.
7. Coat the gasket on the new filter with clean engine oil.
8. Screw on the oil filter until a slight resistance is felt, then tighten an additional 2/3 turn.
Oil filter tightening torque:
13 ft-lb (18 N·m) 9. Start the engine and check for leakage
around the oil filter. Correct as required.
10. Install skid plate in reverse order of removal.
11. Turn the engine off and wait more than 15 minutes. Check the oil level. Add engine
oil if necessary.

WARNING
Be sure the ignition switch is in the OFF or
LOCK position before servicing drive belt.
The engine could rotate unexpectedly.1. Visually inspect the belt for signs of unusual
wear, cuts, fraying or looseness. If the belt is
in poor condition or is loose, have it replaced
or adjusted. It is recommended that you visit
a NISSAN dealer for this service.
2. Have the belt checked regularly for condi- tion and tension in accordance with the
maintenance schedule. For additional infor-
mation, refer to the Maintenance and
schedules section of this manual.
For additional information on the Cummins 5.0L
engine drive belt, refer to the “Titan Diesel Own-
er’s Manual”.
REPLACING SPARK PLUGS
Iridium-tipped spark plugs
It is not necessary to replace iridium-tipped spark
plugs as frequently as conventional type spark
plugs because they last much longer. Follow the
maintenance log shown in the “Maintenance and
schedules” section of this manual. Do not service
iridium-tipped spark plugs by cleaning or regap-
ping.
● Always replace spark plugs with rec-
ommended or equivalent ones.

Under some driving or climate conditions, occa-
sional brake squeak, squeal or other noise may
be heard. Occasional brake noise during light to
moderate stops is normal and does not affect the
function or performance of the brake system.
Proper brake inspection intervals should
be followed.For additional information on the
appropriate maintenance schedule regarding
brake inspections, refer to Gasoline Standard
Maintenance orDiesel Standard Maintenance
in the Maintenance and schedules section of
this manual.
Two types of fuses are used. Type
AandBare
used in the fuse boxes in the engine compart-
ment. Type
Bis used in the passenger compart-
ment fuse box.
Type
Bfuses are provided as spare fuses. They
are stored in the passenger compartment fuse
box.
Type
Afuses can be installed in the engine
compartment and passenger compartment fuse
boxes. If a type
Afuse is used to replace a typeBfuse,
the type
Afuse will not be level with the fuse
pocket as shown in the illustration. This will not
affect the performance of the fuse. Make sure the
fuse is installed in the fuse box securely.
Type
Bfuses cannot be used to replace typeA
fuses.

HEADLIGHTS
For additional information on headlight bulb re-
placement, refer to the instructions outlined in
this section.
Replacing the halogen headlight bulb
(if so equipped)
The headlight is a semi-sealed beam type which
uses a replaceable headlight (halogen) bulb. Be-
cause the headlight assembly must be removed
from the vehicle for bulb replacement, it is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer for this
service.
CAUTION
●Aiming is not necessary after replacing
the bulb. When aiming adjustment is
necessary, it is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
● Do not leave the headlight assembly
open without a bulb installed for a long
period of time. Dust, moisture, smoke,
etc. entering the headlight body may
affect bulb performance. Remove the
bulb from the headlight assembly just
before a replacement bulb is installed. ●
Only touch the base when handling the
bulb. Never touch the glass envelope.
Touching the glass could significantly
affect bulb life and/or headlight
performance.
● High pressure halogen gas is sealed
inside the halogen bulb. The bulb may
break if the glass envelope is scratched
or the bulb is dropped.
● Use the same number and wattage as
shown in the chart.
Fog may temporarily form inside the lens of the
exterior lights in the rain or in a car wash. A
temperature difference between the inside and
the outside of the lens causes the fog. This is not
a malfunction. If large drops of water collect
inside the lens, it is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for servicing.
Replacing the LED headlight bulb (if
so equipped)
If LED headlight bulb replacement is required, it is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN dealer for
this service.
