When checking or replacement is required, we
recommend a NISSAN dealer for servicing.
CAUTION
●NISSAN recommends using Genuine
NISSAN Matic S ATF. Do not mix with
other fluids.
● Do not use CVT fluid or manual trans-
mission fluid in this transmission. Dam-
age caused by the use of fluids other
than as recommended is not covered
under NISSAN’s New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
● Using fluids that are not equivalent to
Genuine NISSAN Matic S ATF may also
damage the transmission. Damage
caused by the use of fluids other than as
recommended is not covered under
NISSAN’s New Vehicle Limited
Warranty.
The specified automatic transmission fluid is also
described on caution labels located in the engine
compartment. The fluid level should be checked using the HOT
MAX range on the power steering fluid reservoir
at fluid temperatures of 122° - 176°F (50° -
80°C) or using the COLD MAX range on the
power steering fluid reservoir at fluid tempera-
tures of 32° - 86°F (0° - 30°C) .
If the fluid is at or below the MIN line, add Genu-
ine NISSAN PSF or equivalent, to HOT MAX or
COLD MAX depending on system fluid tempera-
ture. Remove the cap and fill through the open-
ing.
CAUTION
●
DO NOT OVERFILL.
● Recommended fluid is Genuine
NISSAN PSF or equivalent.

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.
