NOTE: • Maintenance items with “ ” should be performed more frequently according to “Maintenance Under Severe Driving Conditions”.
• (1) Periodic maintenance is not required. However, if valve noise increases, check valve clearance.
• (2) Replace the drive belts if found damaged or if the auto-tensioner reading reaches the maximum limit.
• (3) Never use JASO DH-2 or DL-1, API CG-4, or higher grade oil.
• (4) Use Genuine NISSAN Engine Coolant (blue) or equivalent in its quality, in order to avoid possible aluminum corrosion within the
engine cooling system caused by the use of non-genuine engine coolant. Check and correct the engine coolant mixture ratio every
40,000 km (24,000 miles) or 24 months. First interval replacement is 160,000 km (96,000 miles) or 96 months. After first replacement,
replace every 80,000 km (48,000 miles) or 48 months.
• (5) Drain water when water level sensor lamp lights on in combi meter.
• (6) If engine power decreases, black exhaust smoke is emitted or engine noise increases, perform this maintenance item.
The maintenance intervals shown on the preceding pages are for normal operating conditions. If the vehicle is mainly operated under severe driving conditions as shown below, more frequent maintenance must be performed on the following items as shown in the table.
