Follow theseeasy-to-use FuelEfficient Driving
Tips tohelp youachieve themost fueleconomy
from yourvehicle.
1. Use smooth accelerator andbrake pedal
application.
.
Avoid rapidstarts andstops.
.
Use smooth, gentleaccelerator and
brake application wheneverpossible.
.
Maintain constant speedwhilecommut-
ing and coast whenever possible.
2. Maintain constant speed.
.
Look ahead totry and anticipate and
minimize stops.
.
Synchronizing yourspeed withtraffic
lights allows youtoreduce yournumber
of stops.
.
Maintaining asteady speedcanminimize
red light stops andimprove fueleffi-
ciency .
3. Use airconditioning (A/C)athigher vehicle
speeds.
.
Below 40MPH (64km/h) ,it is more
efficient toopen windows tocool the
vehicle duetoreduced engineload.
.
Above 40MPH (64km/h) ,it is more
efficient touse A/C tocool thevehicle
due toincreased aerodynamic drag.
.
Recirculating thecool airinthe cabin
when theA/C ison reduces coolingload.
4. Drive ateconomical speedsanddistances.
.
Observing thespeed limitandnotex-
ceeding 60MPH (97km/h) (where
legally allowed) canimprove fueleffi-
ciency duetoreduced aerodynamic
drag.
.
Maintaining asafe following distance
behind othervehicles reduces unneces-
sary braking.
.
Safely monitoring traffictoanticipate
changes inspeed permits reduced brak-
ing and smooth acceleration changes.
.
Select agear range suitable toroad
conditions.
5. Use cruise control.
.
Using cruise control duringhighway
driving helpsmaintain asteady speed.
.
Cruise control isparticularly effectivein
providing fuelsavings whendriving on
flat terrains.
6. Plan forthe shortest route.
.
Utilize amap ornavigation systemto
determine thebest route tosave time.
7. Avoid idling.
.
Shutting offyour engine whensafefor
stops exceeding 30-60seconds saves fuel
and reduces emissions.
8. Buy anautomated passfortoll roads.
.
Automated passespermitdrivers touse
special lanestomaintain cruisingspeed
through thetolland avoid stopping and
starting.
9. Winter warmup.
.
Limit idling timetominimize impacttofuel
economy .
.
V ehicles typically neednomore than30
seconds ofidling atstart-up toeffectively
circulate theengine oilbefore driving.
.
Y our vehicle willreach itsideal operating
temperature morequickly whiledriving
versus idling.
10. Keeping yourvehicle cool.
.
Park yourvehicle inacovered parking
area orinthe shade whenever possible.
.
When entering ahot vehicle, opening the
windows willhelp toreduce theinside
temperature faster,resulting inreduced
demand onyour A/Csystem.

substantially reducedinsnowy andicycondi-
tions. Ifyou operate yourvehicle onsnowy oricy
roads, NISSAN recommends theuse ofMUD &
SNOW orALL SEASON tiresonallfour wheels.
Consult aNISSAN dealerforthe tiretype, size,
speed ratingandavailability information.
For additional tractiononicy roads, studded
tires maybeused. However, someU.S.states
and Canadian provinces prohibittheiruse.
Check local,stateandprovincial lawsbefore
installing studdedtires.
Skid andtraction capabilities ofstudded
snow tires,onwet ordry surfaces, maybe
poorer thanthatofnon-studded snow

The engine cooling systemisfilled atthe factory
with apre-diluted mixtureof50% Genuine
NISSAN LongLifeAntifreeze/Coolant (blue)and
50% water toprovide year-round anti-freeze
and coolant protection. Theanti-freeze solution
contains rustandcorrosion inhibitors. Additional
engine cooling systemadditives arenot neces-
sary .
WARNING
. Never remove theradiator orcool-
ant reservoir capwhen theengine is
hot. Wait untiltheengine and
radiator cooldown. Serious burns
could becaused byhigh pressure
fluid escaping fromtheradiator.
See precautions inªIf your vehicle
overheatsº (P.6-10) ofthis manual.
. The radiator isequipped witha
pressure typeradiator cap.To pre-
vent engine damage, useonly a
genuine NISSANradiatorcap.
. Ifthe engine wasstopped soon
when theengine ishot, thecooling
fan may operate forapproximately
10 minutes aftertheengine was
stopped tocool thecomponents in
the engine compartment. Whenthe cooling
fanisoperating, besure
that hands orother items donot get
caught init.
CAUTION
. Never useanycooling systemad-
ditives suchasradiator sealer.Ad-
ditives mayclog thecooling system
and cause damage tothe engine,
transmission and/orcooling sys-
tem.
. When adding orreplacing coolant,
be sure touse only Genuine
NISSAN LongLifeAntifreeze/Cool-
ant (blue) orequivalent. Genuine
NISSAN LongLifeAntifreeze/Cool-
ant (blue) ispre-diluted toprovide
antifreeze protection to-348F
(-378C) .If additional freezeprotec-
tion isneeded duetoweather where
you operate yourvehicle, addGen-
uine NISSAN LongLifeAntifreeze/
Coolant (blue)concentrate follow-
ing the directions onthe container.
If an equivalent coolantotherthan
Genuine NISSANLongLifeAnti-
freeze/Coolant (blue)isused, fol- low
thecoolant manufacture's
instructions tomaintain minimum
antifreeze protection to-348F
(-378C) .The useofother types of
coolant solutions otherthanGenu-
ine NISSAN LongLifeAntifreeze/
Coolant (blue)orequivalent may
damage theengine cooling system.
. The lifeexpectancy ofthe factory-fill
coolant is105,000 miles(168,000
km) or7years. Mixing anyother
type ofcoolant otherthanGenuine
NISSAN LongLifeAntifreeze/Cool-
ant (blue) ,including Genuine
NISSAN LongLifeAntifreeze/Cool-
