FUEL INFORMATION
VQ37VHR engine
Use unleaded premium gasoline with an
octane rating of at least 91 AKI (Anti-
Knock Index) number (Research octane
number 96).
If unleaded premium gasoline is not
available, unleaded regular gasoline with
an octane rating of at least 87 AKI
number (Research octane number 91)
may be temporarily used, but only under
the following precautions:
.Have the fuel tank filled only partially
with unleaded regular gasoline, and fill
up with unleaded premium gasoline
as soon as possible.
. Avoid full throttle driving and abrupt
acceleration.
Use unleaded premium gasoline for
maximum vehicle performance.
CAUTION
. Using a fuel other than that spe-
cified could adversely affect the
emission control system, and
may also affect warranty cover-
age. .
Under no circumstances should a
leaded gasoline be used, because
this will damage the three-way
catalyst.
. Do not use a fuel containing more
than 15% ethanol in your vehicle.
Your vehicle is not designed to
run on a fuel containing more
than 15% ethanol. Using a fuel
containing more than 15% etha-
nol in a vehicle not specifically
designed for a fuel containing
more than 15% ethanol can ad-
versely affect the emission con-
trol devices and systems of the
vehicle. Damage caused by such
fuel is not covered by the NISSAN
new vehicle limited warranty.
. Do not use fuel that contains the
octane booster methylcyclopen-
tadienyl manganese tricarbonyl
(MMT). Using fuel containing
MMT may adversely affect vehicle
performance and vehicle emis-
sions. Not all fuel dispensers are
labeled to indicate MMT content,
so you may have to consult your
gasoline retailer for more details.
Note that Federal and California
laws prohibit the use of MMT in
reformulated gasoline. .
U.S. government regulations re-
quire ethanol dispensing pumps
to be identified by a small,
square, orange and black label
with the common abbreviation or
the appropriate percentage for
that region.
Gasoline specifications
NISSAN recommends using gasoline that
meets the World-Wide Fuel Charter
(WWFC) specifications where it is avail-
able. Many of the automobile manufac-
turers developed this specification to
improve emission system and vehicle
performance. Ask your service station
manager if the gasoline meets the
World-Wide Fuel Charter (WWFC) specifi-
cations.
Reformulated gasoline
Some fuel suppliers are now producing
reformulated gasolines. These gasolines
are specially designed to reduce vehicle
emissions. NISSAN supports efforts to-
wards cleaner air and suggests that you
use reformulated gasoline when avail-
able.

SPECIFICATIONS

10-12Technical and consumer information
If you plan to travel in another country,
you should first find out if the fuel
available is suitable for your vehicle’s
engine.
Using fuel with too low an octane rating
may cause engine damage. All gasoline
vehicles must be operated with unleaded
gasoline. Therefore, avoid taking your
vehicle to areas where appropriate fuel
is not available.
When transferring the registration of
your vehicle to another country, state,
province or district,it may be necessary
to modify the vehicle to meet local laws
and regulations.
The laws and regulations for motor
vehicle emission control and safety stan-
dards vary according to the country,
state, province or district; therefore, vehi-
cle specifications may differ.
When any vehicle is to be taken into
another country, state, province or dis-
trict and registered, its modifications,
transportation, and registration are the
responsibility of the user. NISSAN is not
responsible for any inconvenience that
may result.
