WARNING
cOperating the engine with the air
cleaner removed can cause you or oth-
ers to be burned. The air cleaner not
only cleans the air, it stops the flame if
the engine backfires. If it isn’t there, and
the engine backfires, you could be
burned. Do not drive with the air cleaner
removed, and be careful when working
on the engine with the air cleaner
removed.
cNever pour fuel into the throttle body or
attempt to start the engine with the air
cleaner removed. Doing so could result
in serious injury.
IN-CABIN MICROFILTER (if so
equipped)
The in-cabin microfilter restricts the entry of air-
borne dust and pollen particles and reduces
some objectionable outside odors. The filter is
located behind the glove box. Refer to the
“NISSAN Service and Maintenance Guide” for
change intervals.
To change the filter, perform the following proce-
dure:1. Remove the glove box door by removing the
two lower hinge pins.2. Remove the two screws securing the glove
box frame.
3. Remove the two screws securing the glove
box door latch. Remove the latch by pulling it
down.
4. Remove the glove box frame by pulling it
away from the instrument panel to disen-
gage the retaining clips.
