The following descriptions are pro-
vided to give you a better understand-
ing of the scheduled maintenance
items that should be regularly
checked or replaced. The mainte-
nance log indicates at which
mileage/time intervals each item re-
quires service.
In addition to scheduled mainte-
nance, your Nissan requires that
some items be checked during nor-
mal day-to-day operation. You can
find these items listed under “General
Maintenance” in Chapter 8 of your
Owner’s Manual.
Items marked with“*”are recom-
mended by Nissan for reliable electric
vehicle operation. You are not re-
quired to perform maintenance on
these items in order to maintain the
warranties which come with your
Nissan. Other maintenance items and
intervals are required.
When applicable, additional informa-
tion can be found in the “Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section in Chapter
8 of your Owner’s Manual.
NOTE: Nissan North America does
not advocate the use of non-OEM
approved aftermarket flushing sys-
tems and strongly advises against

ket flushing systems use non-OEM
approved chemicals or solvents, the
use of which has not been validated
by Nissan North America.
For recommended lubricants, fluids,
grease, and refrigerant, refer to
Chapter 9 in your Owner’s Manual.
