sion (where fitted)When planning to travel in another country,you
should first find out if the fuel available is suitable for
your vehicle’s engine.
Using fuel with too low octane/cetane rating may
cause engine damage. Therefore, avoid taking your
vehicle to areas where appropriate fuel is not avail-
able.
When transferring your vehicle registration to an-
other country,check with the appropriate authori-
ties that the vehicle complies with the requirements
as it may not be possible to adapt it. In some cases,
a vehicle cannot meet the legal requirements and in
other cases, it may be necessary to modify the ve-
hicle to meet specific laws and regulations.
The laws and regulations for motor vehicle emission
control and safety standards vary according to the
country; therefore, vehicle specifications may differ.
NISSAN is not responsible for any inconvenience
when the vehicle is taken and registered into an-
other country. The necessary modifications,
transportation and registration are the owner’s
responsibility.
