< ON-VEHICLE MAINTENANCE >
PERIODIC MAINTENANCE
NOTE:
(1) If towing a trailer, using a camper or a car-top carrier, or driving on rough or muddy roads, inspect CVT fluid deterioration
with Consult-III every 90,000 km (54,000 miles), then change CVT fluid NS-2 if necessary. (Refer to TM-204, "
CONSULT-III
Function (TRANSMISSION)" for RE0F10A, TM-37, "CONSULT-III Function (TRANSMISSION)" for RE0F09B.) And if Consult-III
is not available, change (do not just inspect) CVT fluid NS-2 every 90,000 km (54,000 miles). Using transmission fluid other
than Genuine NISSAN CVT Fluid NS-2 will damage the CVT, which is not covered by the warranty.
(2) Inspect once per year.
Maintenance items with “ ” should be performed more frequently according to “Maintenance Under Severe Driving Condi-
tions”.
MAINTENANCE UNDER SEVERE DRIVING CONDITIONS
(Annual Mileage > 30,000 km/year)
The maintenance intervals shown on the preceding pages are for normal operating conditions. If the vehicle is
mainly operated under severe driving conditions as shown below, more frequent maintenance must be per-
formed on the following items as shown in the table.
Severe driving conditions
A — Driving in dusty conditions
B — Driving repeatedly short distances or door to door driving
C — Towing a trailer or caravan
D — Extensive idling or urban driving
E — Driving in extremely adverse weather conditions or in areas where ambient temperatures are either
extremely low or extremely high
F — Driving in high humidity areas or in mountainous areas
G — Driving in areas using salt or other corrosive materials
H — Driving on rough and/or muddy roads or in the desert
I — Driving with frequent use of braking or in mountainous areas
Maintenance operation: Inspect = Inspect and correct or replace as necessary.

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).

CHASSIS MAINTENANCE
EXHAUST SYSTEM : Inspection
INFOID:0000000003862426
Check exhaust pipes, muffler and mounting for improper attachment,
leakage, cracks, damage or deterioration.
 If anything is found, repair or replace damaged parts.
CVT FLUID: RE0F10A
CVT FLUID: RE0F10A : InspectionINFOID:0000000003862427
CHECKING CVT FLUID
The fluid level should be checked with the fluid warmed up to 50 to 80°C (122 to 176°F). The fluid level check
procedure is as follows:
1. Check for fluid leakage.
2. With the engine warmed up, drive the vehicle in an urban area.
When ambient temperature is 20°C (68°F), it takes about 10
minutes for the CVT fluid to warm up to 50 to 80°C (122 to
176°F).
3. Park the vehicle on a level surface.
4. Apply parking brake firmly.
5. With engine at idle, while depressing brake pedal, move shift
selector throughout the entire shift range.
6. Pull out the CVT fluid level gauge from the CVT fluid charging
pipe after pressing the tab on the CVT fluid level gauge to
release the lock.
7. Wipe fluid off the CVT fluid level gauge. Insert the CVT fluid
level gauge rotating 180° from the originally installed position,
then securely push the CVT fluid level gauge until it meets the
top end of the CVT fluid charging pipe.
CAUTION:
When wiping away the CVT fluid level gauge, always use
lint-free paper, not a cloth rag.

8. Place the selector lever in “P” or “N” and check that the fluid
level is within the specified range.
CAUTION:
When reinstalling CVT fluid level gauge, insert it into the
CVT fluid charging pipe and rotate it to the original installa-
tion position until securely locked.
CVT FLUID CONDITION
Check CVT fluid condition.
 If CVT fluid is very dark or smells burned, check operation of CVT.
Flush cooling system after repair of CVT.
 If CVT fluid contains frictional material (clutches, brakes, etc.),
replace radiator and flush cooler line using cleaning solvent and
compressed air after repair of CVT. Refer to CO-13, "
Exploded
View".
CVT FLUID: RE0F10A : ChangingINFOID:0000000003862428
CAUTION:
Replace O-ring with new ones at the final stage of the operation when installing.
1. Remove drain plug from oil pan.
2. Remove drain plug gasket from drain plug.
3. Install drain plug gasket to drain plug.
CAUTION:
Never reuse drain plug gasket.
4. Install drain plug to oil pan. Refer to TM-321, "
Exploded View".
5. Fill CVT fluid from CVT fluid charging pipe to the specified level.
CAUTION:
 Use only Genuine NISSAN CVT Fluid NS-2. Never mix with other fluid.
 Using CVT fluid other than Genuine NISSAN CVT Fluid NS-2 will deteriorate in driveability and
CVT durability, and may damage the CVT, which is not covered by the warranty.
 When filling CVT fluid, take care not to scatter heat generating parts such as exhaust.
 Sufficiently shake the container of CVT fluid before using.
 Delete CVT fluid deterioration date with CONSULT-III after changing CVT fluid.
6. With the engine warmed up, drive the vehicle in an urban area.

Park/neutral position switchPark/neutral position switch supplies power to the starter relay in-
side IPDM E/R when the selector lever is shifted to the P or N po-
sition.
IPDM E/RCPU inside IPDM E/R controls the starter relay. Ignition relay in-
side IPDM E/R supplies power to the park/neutral position switch
when ignition switch is ON or START.
Starter motorThe starter motor plunger closes and the motor is supplied with
battery power, which in turn cranks the engine, when the “S” ter-
minal is supplied with electric power.
