WHEELS : RotationINFOID:0000000005403160
NOTE:
Follow the maintenance schedule for tire rotation service intervals. Refer to MA-9, "
Schedule 1" .
1. Rotate the tires on each side from front to back as shown. Do not include the spare tire when rotating the tires.
CAUTION:
When installing wheel s, tighten them diagonally by dividing
the work two to three times in order to prevent the wheels
from developing any distortion.
2. Adjust the tire pressure to specification. Refer to WT-52, "
Tire" .
3. After the tire rotation, retighten the wheel nuts after the vehicle has been driven for 1,000 km (600 miles), and also after every
wheel and tire have been installed such as after repairing a flat tire.

• Make sure the fluid level in reservoir tank is between MAX and MIN
lines as shown.
• Visually check around reservoir tank for fluid leaks.
• If fluid level is excessively low, check brake system for leaks.
• If brake warning lamp remains illuminated after parking brake pedal is released, check brake system for fluid leaks.
BRAKE LINES AND CABLES

age.
POWER STEERING FLUID AND LINES
POWER STEERING FLUID AND LINE S : Checking Fluid LevelINFOID:0000000005403166
Check power steering fluid level with engine off, referring to the scale
on reservoir tank.
Use HOT range for fluid temperatures of 50 ° – 80 °C (122 ° – 176 °F).
Use COLD range for fluid temperatures of 0 ° – 30 °C (32° – 86°F).
CAUTION:
• Do not overfill.
• Do not reuse any used power steering fluid.
• Recommended fluid is Genuine NISSAN PSF or equivalent.
Refer to MA-13, "
Fluids and Lubricants".
POWER STEERING FLUID AND LINES : Checking Fluid LeakageINFOID:0000000005403167
Check the hydraulic piping lines for improper attachment and for
leaks, cracks, damage, loose connec tions, chafing or deterioration.
1. Run engine until fluid temperature reaches 50 ° – 80° C (122° –
176° F) in reservoir tank. Keep engine speed idle.
2. Turn steering wheel right-to-left several times.
3. Hold steering wheel at each “lock” position for five seconds to check fluid leakage.
CAUTION:
Do not hold steering wheel in a locked position for more
than 10 seconds. (There is the possibility that oil pump may
be damaged.)
4. If fluid leakage at connections is noticed, then loosen flare nut and then retighten. Do not over tighten con- nector as this can damage O-ring, washer and connector.
5. If fluid leakage from oil pump is noticed, check oil pump. Refer to ST-17
.
6. Check steering gear boots for accumulation of fluid indicating a leak from the steering gear.

COMBINATION METER
• Speedometer, odo/trip meter, tachometer, fuel gauge, engine coolant temperature gauge, engine oil pres-
sure gauge, voltage gauge and information display are controlled by the unified meter control unit, which is
built into the combination meter.
• Warning and indicator lamps are controlled by the unified meter control unit and by components connected directly to the combination meter.
• Digital meter is adopted for odo/trip meter.* *The record of the odometer is kept even if the battery cable is disconnected. The record of the trip meter is
erased when the battery cable is disconnected.
• Odo/trip meter segments can be checked in diagnosis mode.
• Meter/gauge can be checked in diagnosis mode.
