5. Remove the reservoir tank to drain the engine coolant, then clean the reservoir tank before installing it.
6. Check the drained coolant for contaminants such as rust, corrosion or discoloration.
If the coolant is contaminated, flush the engine cooling system. Refer to MA-17, "
ENGINE COOLANT :
Changing Engine Coolant".
REFILLING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Close the radiator drain plug. Install the reservoir tank, cylinder block drain plug, and the oil cooler hose, if
removed for a total system drain or for engine removal or repair.
• The radiator must be completely empty of coolant and water.
• Apply sealant to the threads of the cylinder bl ock drain plug. Use Genuine High Performance Thread
Sealant or equivalent. Refer to GI-15, "
Recommended Chemical Products and Sealants".
2. Set the vehicle heater controls to the full HOT and heat er ON position. Turn the vehicle ignition ON with
the engine OFF as necessary to activate the heater mode.
3. Remove the vented reservoir cap and replace it with a non-vented reservoir cap before filling the cooling
system.
4. Install the Tool by installing the radiator cap adapter onto the radiator neck opening. Then attach the gauge body assembly
with the refill tube and the venturi assembly to the radiator cap
adapter.
5. Insert the refill hose into the coolant mixture container that is placed at floor level. Make sure the ball valve is in the closed
position.
• Use Genuine NISSAN Long Life Anti-freeze coolant or equiva-lent, mixed 50/50 with distilled water or demineralized water.
Refer to MA-13, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
6. Install an air hose to the venturi assembly, the air pressure must be within specification.
CAUTION:
The compressed air supply must be equipped with an air
dryer.
7. The vacuum gauge will begin to rise and there will be an audible hissing noise. During this process open the ball valve on the refill hose slightly. Coolant will be vi sible rising in the refill hose. Once the refill hose is
full of coolant, close the ball valve. This will purge any air trapped in the refill hose.
8. Continue to draw the vacuum until the gauge reaches 28 inches of vacuum. The gauge may not reach 28 inches in high altitude
locations, use the vacuum specifications based on the altitude
above sea level.Radiator drain plug

A/T FLUID : Changing the A/T Fluid (ATF)INFOID:0000000005403152
CAUTION:
If using the vehicle for towing, the A/T fluid must be replaced as specified. Refer to
MA-9, "
Introduc-
tion of Periodic Maintenance".
1. Drive the vehicle to warm up the A/T fluid to approximately 80 ° C (176 ° F).
2. Stop the engine.
3. Remove the A/T fluid level gauge.
4. Drain the A/T fluid from the drain plug hole, then install the drain plug with a new gasket. Refill the transmission with new A/T
fluid. Always refill with the same volume as the drained A/T fluid.
Use the A/T fluid level gauge to check the A/T fluid level as
shown. Add A/T fluid as necessary.
• To flush out the old A/T fluid from the transmission o il coolers, pour new A/T fluid into the A/T fluid charg-
ing pipe with the engine idling and at the same time drain the old A/T fluid from the auxiliary transmis-
sion oil cooler hose return line.
• When the color of the A/T fluid coming out of the aux iliary transmission oil cooler hose return line is
about the same as the color of the new A/T fluid, flushing out the old A/T fluid is complete. The amount
of new A/T fluid used for flushing should be 30% to 50% increase of the specified capacity.
CAUTION:
• If Genuine NISSAN Matic S ATF is not available, Genuine NISSAN Matic J ATF may also be used.
• Using ATF fluid other than Genuine NISSAN Matic S ATF or Matic J ATF will cause deterioration
in driveability and A/T durability, and may damage the A/T, which is not covered by the warranty.
• When filling the transmission with A/T fluid, do not spill the A/T fluid on any heat generating
parts such as the exhaust parts.
• Do not reuse the drain plug gasket.
5. Install the A/T fluid level gauge and tighten t he A/T fluid level gauge bolt to specification.
6. Drive the vehicle to warm up the A/T fluid to approximately 80 ° C (176 ° F).
7. Check the fluid level and condition. If the A/T fluid is still dirty, repeat steps 2 through 6.
8. Install the A/T fluid level gauge in the A/T fluid charging pipe and install the A/T fluid level gauge bolt.
9. Tighten the A/T fluid level gauge bolt to specification. Drain plug : Refer to
