The fluid level should be between the COLD
MAX line and the COLD MIN line on the
power steering fluid reservoir at cold fluid
temperatures of 32° - 86°F (0° - 30°C) or at
the HOT MAX line on the power steering
fluid reservoir at hot fluid temperatures of
122° - 176°F (50° - 80°C).

If the fluid is cold and is at or below the
COLD MIN line, add Genuine NISSAN PSF II or
equivalent to the COLD MAX line. If the fluid
is hot and below the HOT MAX line, add
Genuine NISSAN PSF II or equivalent to the
HOT MAX line. Remove the cap and fill
through the opening.
CAUTION
∙ DO NOT OVERFILL.
∙ Do not reuse power steering fluid.
∙ Recommended fluid is GenuineNISSAN PSF II or equivalent
WARNING
∙ Use only new fluid from a sealed con-tainer. Old, inferior or contaminated
fluid may damage the brake system.
The use of improper fluids can dam-
age the brake system and affect the
vehicle’s stopping ability.
∙ Clean the filler cap before removing.
∙ Brake fluid is poisonous and should be stored carefully in marked contain-
ers out of reach of children.
CAUTION
Do not spill the fluid on any painted sur-
faces. This will damage the paint. If fluid
is spilled, immediately wash the surface
with water.
Check the fluid level in the reservoir. If the
brake fluid is below the MIN line
B, the
brake warning light will illuminate. Add
brake fluid up to the MAX line
A. For addi-
tional information on recommended type
of brake fluid, refer to “Recommended
fluids/lubricants and capacities" in the
“Technical and consumer information” sec-
tion of this manual.
If the brake fluid must be added frequently,
the brake system should be thoroughly
checked. It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
