ENGINE OIL
Mobil 1 (0W-40) (100% synthetic oil)

fill oil. The VR38 engine with its plasma-sprayed
bores was developed using this oil. NISSAN
cannot ensure proper engine operation and
durability if other 0W-40 synthetic oil is used.
If Mobil 1 (0W-40) is not available, Mobil 1
(10W-40) (100% synthetic) may be used;
however, some performance loss may be
noticed.
The use of additives, chemical materials or
abrasive compounds is prohibited.
The use of additives, chemical materials, abra-
sive compounds or other high performance
engine oils may cause internal engine damage.
Engine oil maintenance
.When the vehicle is delivered, the engine oil
level is 0.39 in (10 mm) below the H mark on

after the system check is finished.
Release the button and push it again
to operate the shift lever.
. During winter or at other times when
the temperature is extremely low,
changes in the hydraulic response
characteristics may increase the
amount of time that is required for the
system check. During the system check,
a thudding operating noise may occur
or the engine speed may decrease,
however this does not indicate that
there is a malfunction.

Tires:
This reminder appears when the customer set
distance comes for maintaining tires. You can
set or reset the distance for maintaining tires.
(See “Trip computer” earlier in this section.)
WARNING
The tire maintenance indicator is not a
substitute for regular tire checks, in-
cluding tire pressure checks. See
“Changing wheels and tires” in the “8.
Maintenance and do-it-yourself” sec-
tion. Many factors including tire infla-
tion, alignment, driving habits and roadconditions affect tire wear and when
tires should be replaced. Setting the
tire maintenance reminder for a certain
driving distance does not mean your
tires will last that long. Use the tire
maintenance reminder as a guide only
and always perform regular tire checks.
Failure to perform regular tire checks,
including tire pressure checks could
result in tire failure. Serious vehicle
damage could occur and may lead to a
collision, which could result in serious
personal injury or death.
NOTE:
The default setting is OFF.
