2022 NISSAN QASHQAI engine overheat

CAUTION
.If the gauge indicates the engine
coolant temperature is near the
hot (H) end of the normal range,
reduce vehicle speed to decrease
the temperature.
. If the gauge is over the normal
range, stop the vehicle as soon as
safely possible and let the engine
idle.
. If the engine is overheated, con-
tinued operation of the vehicle
may seriously damage the en-
gine. (See “If your vehicle over-
heats” (P.6-16) for immediate
action required.)

recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.
CHANGING ENGINE COOLANT
A NISSAN dealer can change the engine
coolant. The service procedure can be
found in the NISSAN Service Manual.
Improper servicing can result in re-
duced heater performance and engine
overheating.

BRAKING PRECAUTIONS
The brake system has two separate
hydraulic circuits. If one circuit malfunc-
tions, you will still have braking at two
wheels.
Vacuum assisted brakes
The brake booster aids braking by using
engine vacuum. If the engine stops, you
can stop the vehicle by depressing the
brake pedal. However, greater foot pres-
sure on the brake pedal will be required to
stop the vehicle and the stopping dis-
tance will be longer.
Using the brakes
Avoid resting your foot on the brake
pedal while driving. This will cause over-
heating of the brakes, wearing out the
brake pads faster and reduce gas mile-
age.
To help reduce brake wear and to prevent
the brakes from overheating, reduce
speed and downshift to a lower gear
before going down a slope or long grade.
Overheated brakes may reduce braking
performance and could result in loss of
vehicle control.
