NISSAN PATROL 2006 Service Manual

The following tables show the normal maintenance schedule. Depending upon weather and atmospheric
conditions, varying road surfaces, individual driving habits and vehicle usage, additional or more frequent
maintenance may be required.
Periodic maintenance beyond the last period shown on the tables requires similar maintenance.

Maintenance Under Severe Driving Conditions
The maintenance intervals shown on the preceding pages are for normal operating conditions. If the vehicle
is mainly operated under severe driving conditions as shown below, more frequent maintenance must be per-
formed on the following items as shown in the table.
Severe driving conditions
A Ð Driving under dusty conditions
B Ð Driving repeatedly short distances
C Ð Towing a trailer or caravan
D Ð Extensive idling
E Ð Driving in extremely adverse weather condi-
tions or in areas where ambient temperatures
are either extremely low or extremely high
F Ð Driving in high humidity areas or in mountain-
ous areasG Ð Driving in areas using salt or other corrosive
materials
H Ð Driving on rough and/or muddy roads or in
the desert
I Ð Driving with frequent use of braking or in
mountainous areas
J Ð Frequent driving in water
Maintenance operation: Check = Check and correct or replace as necessary.

Anti-freeze Coolant Mixture Ratio
The engine cooling system is ®lled at the factory with a high-quality,
year-round, anti-freeze coolant solution. The anti-freeze solution
contains rust and corrosion inhibitors. Therefore, additional cooling
system additives are not necessary.
CAUTION:
When adding or replacing coolant, be sure to use only an eth-
ylene glycol anti-freeze with the proper mixture ratio. See the
following examples:

necessary.
The belts should not touch the bottom of the pulley groove.
2. Check drive belt de¯ection by pushing on the belt midway
between pulleys.
Adjust if belt de¯ections exceed the limit.

Changing Engine Oil
WARNING:
+Be careful not to burn yourself, as engine oil is hot.
+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.
1. Warm up engine, and check for oil leakage from engine com-
ponents.
2. Remove oil ®ller cap and drain plug.
3. Drain oil and ®ll with new engine oil.
Oil grade: CCMC PD1 or PD2
