15% fuel ethanol and 85% unleaded gaso-
line. E-15 can only be used in vehicles
designed to run on E-15 fuel. Do not use E-
15 in your vehicle. U.S. government reg-
ulations require fuel ethanol dispensing
pumps to be identified with small, square,
orange and black label with the common
abbreviation or the appropriate percen-
tage for that region.E-85 fuelE-85 fuel is a mixture of approximately

of any aftermarket fuel additives
(Example: fuel injector cleaner, in-

tain active solvent or similar ingre-
dients that can be harmful to the fuel
system and engine.Octane rating tips

Oil viscosityThe engine oil viscosity or thickness
changes with temperature. Because of
this, it is important that the engine oil
viscosity be selected based on the tem-
peratures at which the vehicle will be
operated before the next oil change.
Choosing an oil viscosity other than that
recommended could cause serious en-
gine damage.Selecting the correct oil filterYour new vehicle is equipped with a high-
quality genuine NISSAN oil filter. NISSAN
