SWITCH POSITIONS
Switches are shown in wiring diagrams as if the vehicle is in the
ªnormalº condition.
A vehicle is in the ªnormalº condition when:
lignition switch is in the ªLOCKº position,
ldoors, hood and trunk lid/back door are closed,
lpedals are not depressed, and
lparking brake is released.

Tow Truck Towing
CAUTION:
lAll applicable local laws regarding the towing operation
must be obeyed.
lIt is necessary to use proper towing equipment to avoid
possible damage to the vehicle during towing operation.
Towing is in accordance with Towing Procedure Manual
at dealer.
lWhen towing with the rear wheels on the ground, release
the parking brake and move the gearshift lever to neu-
tral position.
NISSAN recommends that vehicle be towed with the driving
(front) wheels off the ground as illustrated.
TOWING A H×CVT MODEL WITH FOUR WHEELS ON
GROUND
Observe the following restricted towing speeds and distances.
Speed:
Below 50 km/h (30 mph)
Distance:
Less than 65 km (40 miles)
CAUTION:
Never tow a H×CVT model from the rear (i.e., backward) with
four wheels on the ground as this may cause serious and
expensive damage to the transaxle.
TOWING A H×CVT MODEL WITH REAR WHEELS
RAISED (With front wheels on ground)
Never tow a H×CVT model with rear wheels raised (with front
wheels on ground) as this may cause serious and expensive
damage to the transaxle. If it is necessary to tow it with rear
wheels raised, always use a towing dolly under the front wheels.
TOWING POINT
Always pull the cable straight out from the vehicle. Never
pull on the hook at a sideways angle.
CAUTION:
Remove the front spoiler when towing the vehicle forward.
Otherwise, the towing device may damage the front spoiler.

PRE-DELIVERY INSPECTION ITEMS
MA-4

General maintenance includes those items which should be checked during normal day-to-day operation of
the vehicle. They are essential if the vehicle is to continue functioning correctly. Owners can perform the
checks and inspections themselves, or they can be carried out by a NISSAN dealer.
Item Reference pages
OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked periodically, unless otherwise specified.
TiresCheck the pressure with a gauge weekly when at a service station, including the spare,
and adjust to the specified pressure if necessary. Check carefully for damage, cuts or exces-
sive wear.
Windshield wiper bladesCheck for cracks or wear if not functioning correctly.
Doors and engine hoodCheck that all doors, the engine hood, the trunk lid and back door
function correctly. Also ensure that all latches lock securely. Lubricate if necessary. Make sure
that the secondary latch prevents the hood from opening when the primary latch is released.
When driving in areas using road salt or other corrosive materials, check for lubrication more
often.MA-54
Tire rotationTires should be rotated every 10,000 km (6,000 miles). MA-53
INSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked on a regular basis, such as when per-
forming periodic maintenance, cleaning the vehicle etc.
LightsMake sure that the headlights, stop lights, tail lights, turn signal lights, and other lights
are all operating correctly and installed securely. Also check headlight aim.
Warning lights and buzzers/chimesMake sure that all warning lights and buzzers/chimes
are functioning correctly.
Steering wheelCheck that it has the specified play. Check for changes in the steering
operation, such as excessive free play, hard steering or strange noises.
Free play: Less than 35 mm (1.38 in.)
Seat beltsCheck that all parts of the seat belt system (e.g. buckles, anchors, adjusters and
retractors) operate properly and smoothly, and are installed securely. Check the belt webbing
for cuts, fraying, wear or damage.MA-54
UNDER THE HOOD AND VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked periodically e. g. each time you check
the engine oil or refuel.
Windshield washer fluidCheck that there is adequate fluid in the tank.
Engine coolant levelCheck the coolant level when the engine is cold.
Engine oil levelCheck the level after parking the vehicle (on level ground) and turning off the
engine.MA-24 / MA-34 /
MA-45
Brake and clutch fluid levelsMake sure that the brake and clutch fluid levels are between
the“MAX”and“MIN”lines on the reservoir.MA-51 / MA-48
BatteryCheck the fluid level in each cell. It should be between the“MAX”and“MIN”lines.
