NOTE:
The air cleaner filter should not be cleaned
and reused.
Replace the air cleaner filter according to the
maintenance log shown in the “Warranty Informa-
tion and Maintenance Booklet.”
To remove the air cleaner filter:● Unlatch the clips and move the air cleaner
cover upward.
● Remove the air cleaner filter. ●
Wipe the inside of the air cleaner filter hous-
ing and the cover with a damp cloth.
NOTE:
After installing a new air cleaner, make
sure the air cleaner cover is seated in the
housing and latch the clips.
WARNING
● Operating the engine with the air
cleaner removed can cause you or oth-
ers to be burned. The air cleaner not
only cleans the air, it stops the flame if
the engine backfires. If it isn’t there, and
the engine backfires, you could be
burned. Do not drive with the air cleaner
removed, and be careful when working
on the engine with the air cleaner
removed.
● Never pour fuel into the throttle body or
attempt to start the engine with the air
cleaner removed. Doing so could result
in serious injury.
IN-CABIN MICROFILTER (if so
equipped)
The in-cabin microfilter restricts the entry of air-
borne dust and pollen particles and reduces
some objectionable outside odors. The filter is
located behind the glove box. For additional in-
formation, refer to the Maintenance and sched-
ules section of this manual for change intervals.
If replacement is required, it is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.

Engine oil and oil filter:Replace engine oil
and oil filter at the specified intervals. For recom-
mended oil grade and viscosity refer to “Recom-
mended fluids/lubricants and capacities” in the
“Technical and consumer information” section of
this manual.
Engine valve clearance*: Inspect only if valve
noise increases. Adjust valve clearance if neces-
sary.
Evaporative emissions control vapor lines*:
Check vapor lines for leaks or looseness. Tighten
connections or replace parts as necessary.
Fuel filter: Periodic maintenance is not re-
quired. (in-tank type filter)
Fuel lines*: Check the fuel hoses, piping and
connections for leaks, looseness, or deteriora-
tion. Tighten connections or replace parts as
necessary.
Spark plugs: Replace at specified intervals. In-
stall new plugs of the type as originally equipped.CHASSIS AND BODY
MAINTENANCE:
Brake lines and cables: Visually inspect for
proper installation. Check for chafing, cracks,
deterioration, and signs of leaking. Replace any
deteriorated or damaged parts immediately.
Brake pads and rotors: Check for wear, dete-
rioration and fluid leaks. Replace any deteriorated
or damaged parts immediately.
Exhaust system: Visually inspect the exhaust
pipes, muffler and hangers for leaks, cracks, de-
terioration, and damage. Tighten connections or
replace parts as necessary.
In-cabin microfilter: Replace at specified in-
tervals. When driving for prolonged periods in
dusty conditions, replace the filter more fre-
quently.
Steering gear and linkage, axle and sus-
pension parts, drive shaft boots: Check for
damage, looseness, and leakage of oil or grease.
Under severe driving conditions, inspect more
frequently. Tire rotation:
Tires should be rotated every
5,000 miles (8,000 km) according to the instruc-
tions under “General maintenance” in this sec-
tion. When rotating tires, check for damage and
uneven wear. Replace if necessary.
Transmission fluid/oil: Visually inspect for
signs of leakage at specified intervals.
If using a car-top carrier or driving on rough or
muddy roads:
● Replace the CVT fluid every 60,000 miles
(96,000 km) or request the dealer to inspect
the fluid deterioration data using a CON-
SULT. If the deterioration data is more than
210000, replace the CVT fluid.
