Low Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF)
warning light
When this warning light illuminates, the DEF fluid
needs to be topped off.
For additional information, refer to the “Fuel and
refueling” section of this manual.
Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) warning
light
When the warning light illuminates, it indicates
that particulate matter is accumulated to the
specified amount of the limit in the filter and the
filter needs to regenerate. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)” in
the “Maintenance” section of this manual.
CAUTION
If you continue driving with the DPF warn-
ing light on without performing the filter
regeneration, this will lead to particle mat-
ter overload in the filter. If this happens,
the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) will
turn on to indicate the necessity that a
NISSAN or qualified dealer performs the
service regeneration. The performance of
the engine might be limited to protect the
DPF system.
Vehicle information display
The vehicle information display shows various
meters and gauges that pertain to the diesel
engine. The information that can be found within
the vehicle information display is as follows:
Exhaust temperature gauge
The exhaust temperature gauge is part of the
Auxiliary Gauges in the vehicle information dis-
play.
Turbo meter
The turbo meter shows the amount of engine
boost.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) LEVEL
This gauge indicates the level of DEF in the diesel
system.
The DEF LEVEL information screen can be
turned ON/OFF in the vehicle information display.

The engine cooling system is filled at the factory
with a pre-diluted mixture of 50% Genuine
NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) and
50% water to provide year-round antifreeze and
coolant protection. The antifreeze solution con-
tains rust and corrosion inhibitors. Additional en-
gine cooling system additives are not necessary.
WARNING
●Never remove the radiator or coolant
reservoir cap when the engine is hot.
Wait until the engine and radiator cool
down. Serious burns could be caused
by high pressure fluid escaping from
the radiator. For additional information
on precautions, refer to “If your vehicle
overheats” in the “In case of emer-
gency” section of this manual.
● The radiator is equipped with a pres-
sure type radiator cap. To prevent en-
gine damage, use only a Genuine
NISSAN radiator cap.
CAUTION
● Never use any cooling system additives
such as radiator sealer. Additives may
clog the cooling system and cause dam-
age to the engine, transmission and/or
cooling system.
● When adding or replacing coolant, be
sure to use only Genuine NISSAN Long
Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) or
equivalent. Genuine NISSAN Long Life
Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) is pre-diluted
to provide antifreeze protection to -34°
F (-37° C) . If additional freeze protection
is needed due to weather where you
operate your vehicle, add Genuine
NISSAN Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant
(blue) concentrate following the direc-
tions on the container. If an equivalent
coolant other than Genuine NISSAN
Long Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) is
used, follow the coolant manufacturer’s
instructions to maintain minimum anti-
freeze protection to -34° F (-37° C) . The
use of other types of coolant solutions
other than Genuine NISSAN Long Life
Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) or equivalent
may cause severe engine damage. ●
The life expectancy of the factory-fill
coolant is 45,000 miles (78,000 km) or
3 years. Mixing any other type of cool-
ant other than Genuine NISSAN Long
Life Antifreeze/Coolant (blue) , includ-
ing Genuine NISSAN Long Life
Antifreeze/Coolant (green) , or the use
of non-distilled water will reduce the
life expectancy of the factory-fill cool-
ant. For additional information, refer to
the “Titan Owner’s Manual.”
● Use Nitrite Free Coolant or equivalent.
The use of coolant containing Nitrites,
could cause severe engine damage.
