YES >> GO TO 8.
NO >> Repair or replace parts according to the inspection results.
8.CHECK TEMPERATURE OF HEATER HOSE
1. Check the temperature of inlet hose and outlet hose of heater core.
2. Check that the inlet side of heater core is hot and the outlet side is slightly lower than/almost equal to the
inlet side.
CAUTION:
Always perform the temperature inspection in a short period of time because the engine coolant
temperature is very hot.
Is the inspection result normal?
YES >> GO TO 9.
NO >> Replace the heater core after performing the procedures after the cooling system inspection. GO
TO 1.
9.REPLACE HEATER CORE
Replace the heater core. Refer to heater core. Refer to VTL-101, "
Exploded View".
Are the malfunction solved?
YES >> END.
NO >> Perform the procedures again after the cooling system inspection. GO TO 1.

PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
Periodic MaintenanceINFOID:0000000003858222
The following tables show the normal maintenance schedule. Depending upon weather and atmospheric con-
ditions, varying road surfaces, individual driving habits and vehicle usage, additional or more frequent mainte-
nance may be required.
Periodic maintenance beyond the last period shown on the tables requires similar maintenance.
ENGINE AND EMISSION CONTROL MAINTENANCE
(Annual Mileage < 30,000 km/year)
Abbreviations: I = Inspect and correct or replace as necessary, R = Replace,[ ] = At the specified mileage only.
NOTE:
Maintenance items with “ ” should be performed more frequently according to “Maintenance Under Severe Driving Condi-
tions”.
(1) Periodic maintenance is not required. However, if valve noise increases, check valve clearance.
(2) Replace the drive belt if found damaged or if the auto belt tensioner reading reaches the maximum limit.
(3) Use Genuine NISSAN Engine Coolant or equivalent in its quality, in order to avoid possible aluminum corrosion within
the engine cooling system caused by the use of non-genuine engine coolant.
First replace at 90,000 Km (54,000 miles)/60 months, then every 60,000 km (36,000 miles)/48 months. Perform "I" (Checking
the mixture ratio and correcting the mixture ratio if necessary) at the middle of replacement interval.

RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS
Fluids and LubricantsINFOID:0000000003858223
*1: For further details, see “SAE Viscosity Number”.
*2: Use Genuine NISSAN Engine Coolant or equivalent in its quality, in order to avoid possible aluminum corrosion within the engine
cooling system caused by the use of non-genuine engine coolant.
Note that any repairs for the incidents within the engine cooling system while using non-genuine engine coolant may not be
covered by the warranty even if such incidents occurred during the warranty period.
*3: Using transmission fluid other than Genuine NISSAN CVT fluid NS-2 will damage the CVT, which is not covered by the war-
ranty.
*4: DEXRON
™ VI type ATF can be used.
*5: Never mix different types of fluids (DOT3 and DOT4).

RECOMMENDED FLUIDS AND LUBRICANTS
If 5W-30 is not available, select the viscosity, from the chart, that is
suitable for the outside temperature range.
Engine Coolant Mixture RatioINFOID:0000000003858225
The engine cooling system is filled at the factory with a high-quality,
year-round and extended life engine coolant. The high quality engine
coolant contains the specific solutions effective for the anti-corrosion
and the anti-freeze function. Therefore, additional cooling system
additives are not necessary.
CAUTION:
 When adding or replacing coolant, be sure to use only Genu-
ine NISSAN Engine Coolant or equivalent in its quality. Genu-
ine NISSAN Engine Coolant is premixed (mixture ratio 50%)
type coolant.
The use of other types of engine coolant may damage your
cooling system.
 When checking the engine coolant mixture ratio by the coolant hydrometer, use the chart below to correct
your hydrometer reading (specific gravity) according to coolant temperature.
Mixed coolant specific gravity
Unit: specific gravity
WARNING:
Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot. Serious burns could be caused by high pres-
sure fluid escaping from the radiator. Wait until the engine and radiator cool down.

< ON-VEHICLE MAINTENANCE >
ENGINE MAINTENANCE
 Check if the reservoir tank engine coolant level is within the “MIN”
to “MAX” when the engine is cool.
 Adjust the engine coolant level as necessary.
LEAKAGE
 To check for leakage, apply pressure to the cooling system with the
radiator cap tester (commercial service tool) (A) and radiator cap
tester adapter (commercial service tool) (B).
WARNING:
Never remove radiator cap when engine is hot. Serious burns
could occur from high-pressure engine coolant escaping from
radiator.
CAUTION:
Higher test pressure than specified may cause radiator dam-
age.
NOTE:
In a case that engine coolant decreases, replenish radiator with engine coolant.
 If anything is found, repair or replace damaged parts.
ENGINE COOLANT : DrainingINFOID:0000000003862450
WARNING:
 To avoid being scalded, never change engine coolant when the engine is hot.
 Wrap a thick cloth around radiator cap and carefully remove radiator cap. First, turn radiator cap a
quarter of a turn to release built-up pressure. Then turn radiator cap all the way.
1. Remove engine under cover.
2. Open radiator drain plug (1) at the bottom of radiator, and then
remove radiator cap.
When draining all of engine coolant in the system, open water drain plugs on cylinder block. Refer
to EM-110, "
Disassembly and Assembly".
3. Remove reservoir tank as necessary, and drain engine coolant and clean reservoir tank before installing.
4. Check drained engine coolant for contaminants such as rust, corrosion or discoloration.
If contaminated, flush the engine cooling system. Refer to MA-16, "
ENGINE COOLANT : Flushing".
ENGINE COOLANT : RefillingINFOID:0000000003862451
1. Install reservoir tank if removed, and radiator drain plug.
CAUTION:
Be sure to clean drain plug and install with new O-ring.
