air condition NISSAN MURANO 2013 2.G Service And Maintenance Guide

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 vehicle
operation. You are not required 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 does not advocate the
use of non-OEM approved aftermar-
ket flushing systems and strongly ad-
vises against performing these ser-
vices on a Nissan product. Many of
the aftermarket flushing systems use
non-OEM approved chemicals or sol-
vents, the use of which has not been
validated by Nissan.
For recommended fuel, lubricants,
fluids, grease, and refrigerant, refer to
Chapter 9 in your Owner’s Manual.

Maintenance:
Drive Belts*
Check engine drive belts for wear,
fraying or cracking and for proper ten-
sion. Replace any damaged drive
belts.Engine Air Filter
Replace at specified intervals. When
driving for prolonged periods in dusty
conditions, check/replace the filter
more frequently.
Engine Coolant*
Replace coolant at the specified in-
terval. When adding or replacing
coolant, be sure to use only Genuine
Nissan Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant
(Blue) or equivalent with the proper
mixture. (Refer to the Owner’s Manual
to determine the proper mixture for
your area.) The recommended ser-
vice interval of the factory-fill coolant
is 105,000 miles (168,000 km) or
7 years, whichever comes first. Sub-
sequent replacement of Genuine
Nissan Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant
(Blue) should occur every
75,000 miles (120,000 km) or
5 years whichever comes first.

Check for damage, looseness, and
leakage of oil or grease. Under severe
driving conditions, inspect more fre-
quently.
Tire Rotation
Tires should be rotated every
7,500 miles according to the instruc-
tions in the Owner’s Manual (except
all 370Z) . When rotating tires, check
for damage and uneven wear. Re-
place if necessary.
Transmission Fluid/Oil,

Visually inspect for signs of leakage at
specified intervals.
If towing a trailer, using a camper or
car-top carrier, or driving on rough or
muddy roads:
●replace the fluid/oil every
30,000 miles or 24 months.
●For vehicles with a CVT transmis-
sion (cube, Murano, Altima, Altima
Coupe, Maxima, Rogue, NV200,
Sentra and Versa) , replace the
fluid every 60,000 miles or request
the dealer to inspect the fluid de-
terioration data using a Consult. If
the deterioration data is more than
210000, replace the CVT fluid.

In-Cabin Microfilter
The In-Cabin Microfilter filters the air you breathe in your
vehicle. This system filters both outside and recirculated
air used by the air conditioning system in your vehicle.
Replacing the Microfilter every year or 15,000 miles is
the best way to help prevent road dust, pollen and other
air pollutants from entering the interior of your vehicle
and the air you breathe. If your vehicle is not equipped
with an In-Cabin Microfilter system – see your Nissan
dealer about getting one installed – you’ll breathe easier.
