Installing Crossbars (if so
equipped)
WARNING
• It is recommended that you have the
roof rack crossbars installed by a
NISSAN dealer.
• Protect the painted area on the ve-
hicle roof under the crossbars by
placing a piece of cloth under the
cross bars to prevent scratch
damage.
• Removal and re-installation of cross-
bars requires purchase of new M6
bolts (T99R1 5RL0A-S1) or the re-
application of thread-locking adhe-
sive such as LOCTITE® , 242® , or
equivalent.
• Do not attempt to adjust fasteners
on the underside of the end sup-
ports. Fasteners are pre-adjusted to
the proper torque requirement by
the manufacturer. 1. Manually remove all 8 protective caps
from the roof rack rails. See Fig. 1.
NOTE:
Please stow these protective covers in
the glove box.
CAUTION
Covers should be re-installed if cross-
bar is removed. 2. Identif y the FRONT
(A)& REAR (B)cross-
bar assembly in the kit.
NOTE:
REAR Crossbar is shorter in length com-
pared to the FRONT Crossbar

6. Tighten all 4 bolts to 8–9 N-m torque
using a T–30 TORX® torque wrench.
NOTE:
a. Start with driver side front bolt.
b. T–30 TORX® torque wrench is not pro-vided with kit.
7. Repeat steps 4 through 6 for the REAR
crossbar installation.
8. Af ter installation, gently wiggle the cross-
bars to check for any loose fit. If loose fit is
noticed, please uninstall and repeat the
steps 4 through 7.
WARNING
• Please locate max load label on
crossbar end support.
• Do not load more that 100 lbs. (45kg).
• Be careful that your vehicle does not
exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rat-
ing (GVWR) or its Gross Axle Weight
Rating (GAWR Front and Rear). The
GVWR and GAWR are located on the
Safety Compliance Certification La-
bel. For more information regarding
GVWR and GAWR, refer to the “Techni-
cal and consumer information” sec-
tion of this manual.
• Always evenly distribute the luggage
and appropriate crossbar attach-
ment on the crossbar.POWER WINDOWS
WARNING
• Make sure that all passengers have
their hands, etc., inside the vehicle
while it is in motion and before clos-
ing the windows. Use the window
lock switch to prevent unexpected
use of the power windows.
• To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of the
vehicle and/or its systems, including
entrapment in windows or inadver-
tent door lock activation, do not
leave children, people who require
the assistance of others or pets unat-
tended in your vehicle. Additionally,
the temperature inside a closed ve-
hicle on a warm day can quickly be-
come high enough to cause a signifi-
cant risk of injury or death to people
and pets.
The power windows operate when the ig-
nition switch is placed in the ON position or
for a period of time af ter the ignition switch
is placed in the OFF position. If the driver's
or passenger's door is opened during this
period of time, the power to the windows is
canceled.

4. Lower the vehicle slowly until the tiretouches the ground. Then, with the
wheel nut wrench, tighten the wheel
nuts securely in the sequence illustrated
(
OA,OB,OC,OD). Lower the vehicle
completely.
WARNING
• Incorrect wheel nuts or improperly
tightened wheel nuts can cause the
wheel to become loose or come off.
This could cause an accident.
• Do not use oil or grease on the wheel
studs or nuts. This could cause the
nuts to become loose.
• Retighten the wheel nuts when the
vehicle has been driven for 600 miles
(1,000 km) (also in cases of a flat
tire,etc.).
As soon as possible, tighten the wheel
nuts to the specified torque with a
torque wrench.
Wheel nut tightening torque: 83 f t-lb (113 N·m)
The wheel nuts must be kept tightened
to specification at all times. It is recom-
mended that wheel nuts be tightened to
specification at each lubrication interval. Adjust tire pressure to the COLD pres-
sure.
COLD pressure: Af ter vehicle has been
parked for 3 hours or more or driven less
than 1 mile (1.6 km).
COLD tire pressures are shown on the
Tire and Loading Information label.
5. Securely store the jack and the tool kit in
its storage area.
6. Place the spare tire cover and lif tgate floor carpeting over the jack and tool kit.
7. Securely store the damaged tire in the vehicle.
8. Close the lif tgate.
WARNING
• Always make sure that the spare tire
and jacking equipment are properly
secured af ter use. Such items can be-
come dangerous projectiles in an ac-
cident or sudden stop.
• The spare tire is designed for emer-
gency use. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Wheels and tires” in the
“Do-it-yourself ” section of this
manual. 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 any-
thing, immediately flush the con-
tacted area with water.
• Keep 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.

2. Remove the oil filler cap.
3. Remove the drain plug with a wrench by turning it counterclockwise and com-
pletely drain the oil.
CAUTION
Be careful not to burn yourself, as the
engine oil is hot.
WARNING
• Prolonged and repeated contact
with used engine oil may cause skin
cancer.
• Try to avoid direct skin contact with
used oil. If skin contact is made, wash
thoroughly with soap or hand
cleaner as soon as possible.
• Keep used engine oil out of reach of
children. 4. Loosen the oil filter with an oil filter
wrench by turning it counterclockwise.
Remove the oil filter by turning it by
hand.
5. Wipe the engine oil filter mounting sur- face with a clean rag.
CAUTION
Be sure to remove any old gasket ma-
terial remaining on the sealing surface
of the engine. Failure to do so could
lead to an oil leak and engine damage.
• The dipstick must be inserted in
place to prevent oil spillage from the
dipstick hole when filling the engine
with oil.
6. Coat the gasket on the new filter with clean engine oil.
7. Screw in the oil filter clockwise until a slight resistance is felt, then tighten addi-
tionally more than 2/3 turn.
Oil filter tightening torque: 11 to 15 f t-lb (14.7 to 20.6 N·m)
8. Clean and re-install the drain plug with a new washer. Securely tighten the drain
plug with a wrench. Do not use exces-
sive force.
Drain plug tightening torque: 22 to 29 f t-lb (29.4 to 39.2 N·m)
9. Refill the engine with the recommended oil through the oil filler opening, and in-
