•If you must run the engine in an enclosed
space such as a garage, be sure there is
proper ventilation for exhaust gases.
•DO NOT GET UNDER A VEHICLE THAT IS
SUPPORTED BY A JACK.
•Keep smoking materials, flame and sparks
away from fuel and battery.
•Never connect or disconnect either the bat-
tery or any transistorised component connec-
tor while the ignition switch is in the ON posi-
tion.
•Never leave the engine or transmission re-
lated component harness connector discon-
nected while the ignition switch is in the ON
position.
•On petrol engine models with the multiport
fuel injection (MFI) system, the fuel filter or
fuel lines should be serviced by a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop because the fuel
lines are under high pressure even when the
engine is off.
•Always wear eye protection whenever you
work on your vehicle.
•Failure to follow these or other common sense
guidelines may lead to serious injury or ve-
hicle damage.
NISSAN Blue Citizenship
Improperly disposed engine oil and/or other
vehicle fluids can pollute the environment. Al-
ways conform to local regulations for disposal
of vehicle fluid.
This section gives instructions regarding only those
items which are relatively easy for an owner to per-
form.
You should be aware that incomplete or improper
servicing may result in operating difficulties or ex-
cessive emissions, and could affect your warranty
coverage.If in doubt about any servicing, have it
done by your NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop.For an overview of the engine compartment, see
“Engine compartment” in the “0. Illustrated table
of contents” section.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT
Maintenance and do-it-yourself8-5

WARNING
•Never remove the engine coolant reservoir
cap when the engine is hot. Serious burns
could be caused by high pressure fluid es-
caping from the engine coolant reservoir. Wait
until the engine and radiator have cooled
down.
•Engine coolant is poisonous and should be
stored carefully in marked containers out of
the reach of children.
The engine cooling system is filled at the factory
with a high-quality, year-round and extended life en-
gine coolant. The high quality engine coolant con-
tains the specific solutions effective for the anti-cor-
rosion and the anti-freeze function. Therefore, addi-
tional cooling system additives are not necessary.
CAUTION
•Never use any cooling system additives such
as radiator sealer. Additives may clog the
cooling system and cause damage to the en-
gine, transmission and/or cooling system.
•When adding or replacing engine coolant, be
sure to use Genuine NISSAN engine coolant
or equivalent.
•The use of other types of engine coolant may
damage the engine cooling system.
•The engine coolant reservoir tank is equipped
with a pressure cap, use a Genuine NISSAN
cap or its equivalent when replacement is re-
quired.
CHECKING ENGINE COOLANT
LEVEL
Check the coolant level in the reservoir when the
engine is cold. If the coolant level is below MINj2,
add coolant up to the MAXj1 level.
CAUTION
If the cooling system frequently requires coolant,
have it checked by a NISSAN dealer or qualified
workshop.
CHANGING ENGINE COOLANT
CAUTION
•Major cooling system repairs should be per-
formed by a NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop. The service procedures can be found in
the appropriate NISSAN Service Manual.
•When checking or replacement is required,
NISSAN recommends contacting a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop for servicing.
•Improper servicing or engine coolant change
can result in reduced heater performance and
engine overheating.
WARNING
•To avoid the danger of being scalded, never
change the coolant when the engine is hot.
•Avoid direct skin contact with used coolant. If
skin contact is made, wash thoroughly with
soap or hand cleaner and plenty of water as
soon as possible.
•Keep coolant out of reach of children and
pets.
NISSAN Blue Citizenship
Engine coolant must be disposed of properly.
Check your local regulations.

release” in the “3. Pre-driving checks and
adjustments” section.
6. Remove the dipstick and wipe it clean.
Models with K9K engine: the engine oil dipstick
is attached to the engine oil filler cap. Remove
the engine oil filler cap and wipe the dipstick
clean.
7. Reinsert it all the way.
Models with K9K engine: install the engine oil
filler cap.
8. Remove the dipstick again and check the oil level.
It should be in the normal range

9. If the oil level is below MIN
j2 , remove the en-
gine oil filler cap and pour the recommended oil
through the opening.Do not overfill
j3.
10. Recheck the oil level with the dipstick.
11. Install the engine oil filler cap securely.
12. Close the bonnet.
It is normal to add some engine oil between oil
maintenance intervals depending on the severity
of operating conditions or depending on the prop-
erty of the engine oil used. More engine oil is
consumed by frequent acceleration/deceleration
especially when the engine rpm is high. Con-
sumption is likely to be higher when the engine
is new. If the rate of oil consumption, after hav-
ing driven for 5,000 km (3,000 miles), is morethan 0.5 litre per 1,000 km (621 miles), consult a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
CHANGING ENGINE OIL
WARNING
•NISSAN recommends contacting a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop for engine oil
servicing.
NISSAN Blue Citizenship
Used oil must not be poured into the ground,
canals, rivers, etc. It should be disposed of at
a rubbish tip having proper facilities. Check
your local regulations.
•Be careful not to burn yourself, as the engine
oil is hot.
•Prolonged and repeated contact with used
engine oil may cause skin cancer.
•Avoid direct skin contact with used oil. If skin
contact is made, wash thoroughly with soap
or hand cleaner and plenty of water as soon
as possible.
•Store used engine oil in marked containers
out of the reach of children.
