FOR USA AND CANADA : Explana
tion of General MaintenanceINFOID:0000000009464530
General maintenance includes those items which shoul d be checked during the normal day-to-day operation
of the vehicle. They are essential if the vehicle is to continue operating properly. The owners can perform
checks and inspections themselves or have their NISSAN dealers do them.
OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be performed from time to time, unless otherwise specified.
INSIDE THE VEHICLE
The maintenance items listed here should be checked on a regular basis, such as when performing periodic maintenance, cleaning the vehicle,
etc.
Item Reference page
Tires Check the pressure with a gauge often and always prior to long distance trips.
Adjust the pressure in all tires, including the spare, to the pressure specified.
Check carefully for damage, cuts or excessive wear. MA-39
Wheel nuts
When checking the tires, make sure no nuts are missing, and check for any loose
nuts. Tighten if necessary. MA-39
Tire rotation
Tires should be rotated every 5,000 miles (8,000 km). MA-39
Tire Pressure Monitor-
ing System (TPMS)
transmitter compo-
nents Replace the TPMS transmitter grommet seal, valve core and cap when the tires
are replaced due to wear or age. WT-57
Wheel alignment and
balance If the vehicle should pull to either side while driving on a straight and level road,
or if you detect uneven or abnormal tire wear, there may be a need for wheel
alignment. If the steering wheel or seat vibrates at normal highway speeds,
wheel balancing may be needed. For additional information regarding tires, refer
to "Important Tire Safety Information" (US) or "Tire Safety Information" (Canada)
in the NISSAN Warranty Information Booklet. FSU-25
Windshield
Clean the windshield on a regular basis. Check the windshield at least every six
months for cracks or other damage. Repair as necessary. —
Windshield wiper
blades Check for cracks or wear if they do not wipe properly. —
Doors and engine
hood Check that all doors and the engine hood operate properly. Also make sure that
all latches lock securely. Lubricate if necessary. Make sure that the secondary
latch keeps the hood from opening when the primary latch is released.
When driving in areas using road salt or other corrosive materials, check for lu-
brication frequently. MA-45, "LOCKS, HING-
ES AND HOOD LATCH :
Lubricating"
Lamps
Make sure that the headlamps, stop lamps, tail lamps, turn signal lamps, and oth-
er lamps are all operating properly and installed securely. Also check headlamp
aim. Clean the headlamps on a regular basis. EXL-122

Warning lamps and
chimes Make sure that all warning lamps and chimes are operating properly. —
Windshield wiper and
washer Check that the wipers and washer operate properly and that the wipers do not
streak. —
Windshield defroster Check that the air comes out of the defroster outlets properly and in sufficient
quantity when operating the heater or air conditioner. —
Steering wheel Check that it has the specified play. Check for changes in the steering condition,
such as excessive play, hard steering or strange noises.

ENGINE MAINTENANCE (QR25DE)
• Loose connections
• Chafing
• Deterioration
CHECKING RESERVOIR LEVEL
• Check if the reservoir tank coolant level is within MIN to MAX when the engine is cool.
• Adjust coolant level if it is too much or too little.
ENGINE COOLANT : Changing Engine CoolantINFOID:0000000009464545
WARNING:
• To avoid being scalded, do not change the coolant when the engine is hot.
• Wrap a thick cloth around cap and carefully remove the cap. First, turn the cap a quarter of a turn to
release built-up pressure. Then push down and turn the cap all the way to remove.
DRAINING ENGINE COOLANT
1. Remove the engine under cover. Refer to EXT-17, "Removal and Installation".
2. Open the radiator drain plug at the bottom of the radi ator and remove the radiator filler cap. This is the
only step required when partially draining the cooling system (radiator only).
CAUTION:
• Do not allow the coolant to contact the drive belt.
• Perform this step when engine is cold.
3. Follow this step for heater core removal/replac ement only. Disconnect the upper heater hose at the
engine side and apply moderate air pressure [103.46 kPa (1.055 kg/cm
2, 15 psi) maximum air pressure]
into the hose for 30 seconds to blow t he excess coolant out of the heater core.
4. When draining all of the coolant in the system, re move the reservoir tank and drain the coolant, then clean
the reservoir tank before installation.
CAUTION:
• Do not allow the coolant to contact the drive belt.
• Perform this step when engine is cold.
5. When draining all of the coolant in the system for engine removal or repair, open the drain plugs (A and B) on the cylinder
block.
: Front
6. Check the drained coolant for contaminants such as rust, corrosion or discoloration.
If the coolant is contaminated, flush the engine cooling system.

1. Install the radiator drain plug. Install the reservoir tank and cylin-
der block drain plug, if removed for a total system drain or for
engine removal or repair.
• The radiator must be completely empty of coolant and
water.
• Apply sealant to the threads of the cylinder block drain
plug. Use Genuine High Pe rformance Thread Sealant or
equivalent. Refer to GI-21, "Recommended Chemical
Products and Sealants".
: Front
CAUTION:
Do not reuse copper sealing washers.
2. If disconnected, reattach the upper radiator hose at the engine side.
3. Set the vehicle heater controls to the full HOT and heat er ON position. Turn the vehicle ignition ON with
the engine OFF as necessary to activate the heater mode.
4. Install the Tool by installing the radiator cap adapter onto the radiator neck opening. Then attach the gauge body assembly
with the refill tube and the venturi assembly to the radiator cap
adapter.
5. Insert the refill hose into the coolant mixture container that is
placed at floor level. Make sure the ball valve is in the closed
position.
• Use recommended coolant or equivalent.
Refer to MA-11, "FOR USA AND CANADA : Fluids and Lubri-
cants".
CAUTION:
Do not use any cooling system additives such as radiator
sealer. Additives may clog th e cooling system and cause
damage to the engine, transmission and/or cooling system.
6. Install an air hose to the venturi assembly, the air pressure must be within specification.
CAUTION:
The compressed air supply must be equipped with an air dryer.
7. The vacuum gauge will begin to rise and there will be an audible hissing noise. During this process open the ball valve on the refill hose slightly. Coolant will be vi sible rising in the refill hose. Once the refill hose is
full of coolant, close the ball valve. Th is will purge any air trapped in the refill hose.
