fuels in your diesel engine. The use of those can cause
engine damage.
Do not use summer fuel at temperatures below −7°C
(20°F). The cold temperatures will cause wax to form in the
fuel. As a result, it may prevent the engine from running
smoothly.
Do not add gasoline or other alternate fuels to diesel fuel.
PRECAUTIONS FOR AIR CONDITIONINGNJGI0001S09Use an approved refrigerant recovery unit any time the air condi-
tioning system must be discharged. Refer to HA-77 (Manual) or
ATC-132 (Auto), “HFC-134a (R-134a) Service Procedure” for spe-
cific instructions.

CONNECTOR SYMBOLS=NJGI0003S0201Most of connector symbols in wiring diagrams are shown from the
terminal side.
Connector symbols shown from the terminal side are enclosed
by a single line and followed by the direction mark.
Connector symbols shown from the harness side are enclosed
by a double line and followed by the direction mark.
Certain systems and components, especially those related to
OBD, may use a new style slide-locking type harness connec-
tor. For description and how to disconnect, refer to EL-7, “HAR-
NESS CONNECTOR”.

Male and female terminals
Connector guides for male terminals are shown in black and
female terminals in white in wiring diagrams.

SGI862-A
DETECTABLE LINES AND NON-DETECTABLE LINESNJGI0003S0205In some wiring diagrams, two kinds of lines, representing wires,
with different weight are used.
A line with regular weight (wider line) represents a “detectable
line for DTC (Diagnostic Trouble Code)”. A “detectable line for
DTC” is a circuit in which ECM can detect its malfunctions with
the on board diagnostic system.
A line with less weight (thinner line) represents a “non-detect-
able line for DTC”. A “non-detectable line for DTC” is a circuit
in which ECM cannot detect its malfunctions with the on board
diagnostic system.
