3. Move probe along component approximately 25 to 50 mm (1
to 2 in)/sec.
Checking ProcedureNJHA0168S03To prevent inaccurate or false readings, make sure there is no
refrigerant vapor, shop chemicals, or cigarette smoke in the
vicinity of the vehicle. Perform the leak test in calm area (low
air/wind movement) so that the leaking refrigerant is not dis-
persed.
1. Turn engine off.
2. Connect a suitable A/C manifold gauge set to the A/C service
ports.
3. Check if the A/C refrigerant pressure is at least 345.2 kPa (3.45
bar, 3.52 kg/cm
2, 50.1 psi) above 16ÉC (61ÉF). If less than
specification, recover/evacuate and recharge the system with
the specified amount of refrigerant.
NOTE:
At temperatures below 16ÉC (61ÉF), leaks may not be detected
since the system may not reach 345.2 kPa (3.45 bar, 3.52 kg/cm
2,
50.1 psi).
4. Conduct the leak test from the high side (compressor dis-
chargeato evaporator inletg) to the low side (evaporator drain
hosehto shaft sealk). Refer to HA-91. Perform a leak check
for the following areas carefully. Clean the component to be
checked and move the leak detector probe completely around
the connection/component.
+Compressor
Check the fitting of high and low pressure hoses, relief valve
and shaft seal.
+Liquid tank
Check the pressure switch, refrigerant pressure sensor, tube
fitting, weld seams and the fusible plug mount.
+Service valves
Check all around the service valves. Ensure service valve caps
are secured on the service valves (to prevent leaks).
NOTE:
After removing A/C manifold gauge set from service valves, wipe
any residue from valves to prevent any false readings by leak
detector.
+Cooling unit (Evaporator)
With engine OFF, turn blower fan on ªHighº for at least 15
seconds to dissipate any refrigerant trace in the cooling unit.
Wait a minimum of 10 minutes accumulation time (refer to the
manufacturer's recommended procedure for actual wait time)
before inserting the leak detector probe into the drain hose.
Keep the probe inserted for at least ten seconds. Use caution
not to contaminate the ptobe tip with water or dirt that may be
in the drain hose.

5. Make sure that the rim is completely crimped down.
Standard height ªHº:
8.0 - 8.4 mm (0.315 - 0.331 in)
6. Confirm that there is no leakage.
Refer to Inspection.

INSPECTIONNJLC0081S041. Apply pressure with Tool.
Specified pressure value:
157 kPa (1.57 bar, 1.6 kg/cm
2, 23 psi)
WARNING:
To prevent the risk of the hose coming undone while under
pressure, securely fasten it down with a hose clamp.
Attach a hose to the oil cooler as well. (A/T model only)

CHECKING COOLING SYSTEM FOR LEAKSNJLC0054S04To check for leakage, apply pressure to the cooling system with a
tester.
Testing pressure:
157 kPa (1.57 bar, 1.6 kg/cm
2, 23 psi)
CAUTION:
+Higher than the specified pressure may cause radiator
damage.
+Be sure to perform the inspections after cooling down the
engine.
+Use a hose adapter between the cap tester and filler neck
to prevent the radiator filler neck from deforming.
+If any abnormalities are found, repair or replace the malfunc-
tioning parts.
Water Pump
REMOVAL AND INSTALLATIONNJLC0055CAUTION:
+When removing water pump assembly, be careful not to
get coolant on drive belt.
+Water pump cannot be disassembled and should be
replaced as a unit.
+After installing water pump, connect hose and clamp
securely, then check for leaks using radiator cap tester.

General maintenance includes those items which should be checked during the normal day-to-day operation
of the vehicle. They are essential if the vehicle is to continue operating properly. The owners can perform the
checks and inspections themselves or they can have their NISSAN dealers do them for a nominal charge.
OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be performed from time to time, unless otherwise specified.
Item Reference page
TiresCheck the pressure with a gauge periodically when at a service station,
including the spare, and adjust to the specified pressure if necessary. Check
carefully for damage, cuts or excessive wear.Ð
Windshield wiper
bladesCheck for cracks or wear if not functioning correctly. Ð
Doors and engine
hoodCheck that all doors, the engine hood, the trunk lid and back door operate
properly. Also ensure that all latches lock securely. Lubricate if necessary.
Make sure that the secondary latch keeps the hood from opening when the
primary latch is released.
When driving in areas using road salt or other corrosive materials, check for
lubrication frequently.BT-7
BT-16
Tire rotationTires should be rotated every 10,000 km (6,000 miles). SU-7
INSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked on a regular basis, such as when performing periodic maintenance, cleaning the
vehicle, etc.
Item Reference page
LampsMake sure that the headlamps, stop lamps, tail lamps, turn signal lamps,
and other lamps are all operating properly and installed securely. Also check
headlamp aim.Ð
Warning lamps and
chimesMake sure that all warning lamps and buzzers/chimes are operating prop-
erly.Ð
Steering wheelCheck that it has the specified play.
Check for changes in the steering conditions, such as excessive free play,
hard steering or strange noises.
Free play: Less than 35 mm (1.38 in)Ð
Seat beltsCheck that all parts of the seat belt system (e.g. buckles, anchors, adjusters
and retractors) operate properly and smoothly, and are installed securely.
Check the belt webbing for cuts, fraying, wear or damage.RS-4
UNDER THE HOOD AND VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked periodically e.g. each time you check the engine oil or refuel.
Item Reference page
Windshield washer
fluidCheck that there is adequate fluid in the tank. Ð
Engine coolant levelCheck the coolant level when the engine is cold. LC-19, LC-45
Engine oil levelCheck the level after parking the vehicle (on level ground) and turning off
the engine.LC-8, LC-31
Brake and clutch
fluid levelsMake sure that the brake and clutch fluid levels are between the ªMAXº and
ªMINº lines on the reservoir.BR-8
