Securely store the damaged tire in the cargo
area as illustrated.
The spare tire basket cannot be used for the
conventional tire.
Return the spare tire basket to its original
position in the reverse order of removal. (See
“Getting the spare tire and tools” earlier in this
section.)
Spare tire basket bolt tightening torque:
48 to 63 ft-lb (64 to 86 N·m)
WARNING
.Always make sure that the spare tire
and jacking equipment are properly
secured after use. Such items can
become dangerous projectiles in an
accident or sudden stop.
. Make sure that the spare tire basket
is properly secured in its original
position after removing the spare
tire.
. The spare tire and small size spare
tire are designed for emergency use.
See specific instructions under the
heading “WHEELS AND TIRES” in
the “8. Maintenance and do-it-your-
self” section. To start your engine with a booster battery, the
instructions and precautions below must be
followed.
WARNING
.
If done incorrectly, jump starting
can lead to a battery explosion,
resulting in severe injury or death.
It could also damage your vehicle.
. Explosive hydrogen gas is always
present in the vicinity of the battery.
Keep all sparks and flames away
from the battery.
. Do not allow battery fluid to come
into contact with eyes, skin, clothing
or painted surfaces. Battery fluid is
a corrosive sulfuric acid solution
which can cause severe burns. If
the fluid should come into contact
with anything, immediately flush the
contacted area with water.
. Keep the battery out of the reach of
children.
. The booster battery must be rated at
12 volts. Use of an improperly rated
battery can damage your vehicle.
. Whenever working on or near a
battery, always wear suitable eyeJUMP STARTING

protectors (for example, goggles or
industrial safetyspectacles) and
remove rings, metal bands, or any
other jewelry. Do not lean over the
battery when jump starting.
. Do not attempt to jump start a
frozen battery. It could explode
and cause serious injury.
. Your vehicle has an automatic en-
gine cooling fan. It could come on at
any time. Keep hands and other
objects away from it.

WARNING
Always follow the instructions below.
Failure to do so could result in damage
to the charging system and cause
personal injury.
1. If the booster battery is in another vehicle*B, position the two vehicles (
*A
and
*B)
to bring their batteries into close proximity to
each other.
Do not allow the two vehicles to touch.
2. Apply the parking brake. 3.
Continuously Variable Transmission
(CVT) models:
Move the selector lever to the P (Park)
position.
Manual Transmission (MT) models:
Move the shift lever to the N (Neutral)
position.
4. Switch off all unnecessary electrical systems (headlights, heater, air conditioner, etc.) .
5. Remove the vent caps on the battery (if so equipped) . Cover the battery with a firmly
wrung out moist cloth to reduce explosion
hazard.

6. Connect jumper cables in the sequence asillustrated (
*1
?
*2
?
*3
?
*4).
For the vehicle equipped with Intelli-
gent Key system:
If the battery is discharged, the ignition
switch cannot be moved from the OFF
position and, if the steering lock is
engaged, the steering wheel cannot be
moved. Connect the jumper cables to
the booster vehicle
*B
before turning
the ignition switch and disengaging the
steering lock.
CAUTION
. Always connect positive (+) to posi-
tive (+) and negative ( ) to body
ground (for example, as illustrated) ,
not to the battery.
. Make sure the jumper cables do not
touch moving parts in the engine
compartment and that the cable
clamps do not contact any other
metal.
7. Start the engine of the booster vehicle
*B
and let it run for a few minutes.
8. Keep the engine speed of the booster vehicle
*B
at about 2,000 rpm, and start the engine of the vehicle
*A
being jump
started.
CAUTION
Do not keep the starter motor engaged
for more than 10 seconds. If the engine
does not start right away, place the
ignition switch in the OFF position and
wait 10 seconds before trying again.
9. After starting your engine, carefully discon- nect the negative cable and then the positive
cable (
*4
?
*3
?
*2
?
*1).
10. Replace the vent caps (if so equipped) . Be sure to dispose of the cloth used to cover
the vent holes as it may be contaminated
with corrosive acid. Do not attempt to start the engine by pushing.
CAUTION
.
Continuously Variable Transmission
(CVT) models cannot be push-
started or tow-started. Attempting
to do so may cause transmission
damage.
. Three-way catalyst equipped mod-
els should not be started by pushing
since the three way catalyst may be
damaged.
. Never try to start the vehicle by
towing it; when the engine starts,
the forward surge could cause the
vehicle to collide with the tow
vehicle.PUSH STARTING

Check the fluid level in each cell. It should be
between the UPPER LEVEL
*1
and LOWER
LEVEL
*2
lines.
If it is necessary to add fluid, add only distilled
water to bring the level to the indicator in each
filler opening. Do not overfill.
SDI1480C
1. Remove the cell plugs
*A
.
2. Add distilled water up to the UPPER LEVEL
*1
line.
If the side of the battery is not clear, check
the distilled water level by looking directly
above the cell; the condition
*1
indicates
OK and the condition
*2
needs more to be
added.
3. Tighten cell plugs
*A
.
Vehicles operated in high temperatures or under
severe conditions require frequent checks of the
battery fluid level.
JUMP STARTINGIf jump starting is necessary, see “JUMP
STARTING” in the “6. In case of emergency”
section. If the engine does not start by jump
starting, the battery may have to be replaced.
Contact a NISSAN dealer.
