belt NISSAN ALTIMA 2016 L33 / 5.G Service And Maintenance Guide

The following descriptions are pro-
vided to give you a better understand-
ing of the scheduled maintenance
items that should be regularly checked
or replaced. The maintenance log indi-
cates at which mileage/time intervals
each item requires service.In addition to scheduled mainte-
nance, your Nissan requires that
some items be checked during nor-
mal day-to-day operation. You can
find these items listed under “General
Maintenance” in Chapter 8 of your
Owner’s Manual.Items marked with“*”are recom-
mended by Nissan for reliable vehicle
operation. You are not required to per-
form maintenance on these items in
order to maintain the warranties which
come with your Nissan. Other mainte-
nance items and intervals are required.When applicable, additional informa-
tion can be found in the “Maintenance
and do-it-yourself” section in Chapter
8 of your Owner’s Manual. NOTE: Nissan does not advocate the
use of non-OEM approved aftermar-ket flushing systems and strongly ad-vises against performing these ser-vices on a Nissan product. Many ofthe aftermarket flushing systems usenon-OEM approved chemicals or sol-vents, the use of which has not beenvalidated by Nissan.For recommended fuel, lubricants,
fluids, grease, and refrigerant, refer to
Chapter 9 in your Owner’s Manual.Emission Control System
Maintenance:Drive Belts*
Check engine drive belts for wear,
fraying or cracking and for proper ten-
sion. Replace any damaged drive
belts.
Engine Air Filter
Replace at specified intervals. When
driving for prolonged periods in dusty
conditions, check/replace the filter
more frequently.Engine Coolant*
Replace coolant at the specified in-
terval. When adding or replacing
coolant, be sure to use only Genuine
Nissan Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant
(Blue) or equivalent with the proper
mixture. (Refer to the Owner’s Manual
to determine the proper mixture for
your area.) The recommended ser-
vice interval of the factory-fill coolant
is 105,000 miles (168,000 km) or
7 years, whichever comes first.
Subsequent replacement of Genuine
Nissan Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant
(Blue) should occur every
75,000 miles (120,000 km) or
5 years whichever comes first.
NOTE: Mixing any other type of cool-
ant or the use of non-distilled water
will reduce the recommended service
interval of the coolant.
