battery NISSAN TITAN 2017 2.G Manual Online

To start your engine with a booster battery, the
instructions and precautions below must be fol-
lowed.
WARNING
●If done incorrectly, jump starting can
lead to a battery explosion, resulting in
severe injury or death. It could also
damage your vehicle.
● Explosive hydrogen gas is always pres-
ent in the vicinity of the battery. Keep all
sparks and flames away from the
battery.
● Do not allow battery fluid to come into
contact with eyes, skin, clothing or
painted surfaces. Battery fluid is a cor-
rosive sulfuric acid solution which can
cause severe burns. If the fluid should
come into contact with anything, imme-
diately flush the contacted area with
water.
● Keep battery out of the reach of
children.
● The booster battery must be rated at
12 volts. Use of an improperly rated
battery can damage your vehicle. ●
Whenever working on or near a battery,
always wear suitable eye protectors (for
example, goggles or industrial safety
spectacles) and remove rings, metal
bands, or any other jewelry. Do not lean
over the battery when jump starting.
● Do not attempt to jump start a frozen
battery. It could explode and cause se-
rious injury.

WARNING
Always follow the instructions below. Fail-
ure to do so could result in damage to the
charging system and cause personal
injury.1. If the booster battery is in another vehicle, position the two vehicles to bring their bat-
teries near each other.
Do not allow the two vehicles to touch.
2. Apply the parking brake. Move the shift lever to P (Park) . Switch off all unnecessary elec-
trical systems (lights, heater, air conditioner,
etc.) . 3. Ensure the vent caps are level and tight.
4. Remove the fuse/fusible link box and con-
nect jumper cables in the sequence illus-
trated (
A,B,C,D).
CAUTION
●Always connect positive () to positive
() and negative () to body ground (for
example, strut mounting bolt, engine
lift bracket, etc.) — not to the battery.
● Make sure the jumper cables do not
touch moving parts in the engine com-
partment and that the cable clamps do
not contact any other metal. 5. Start the engine of the booster vehicle and
let it run for a few minutes.
6. Keep the engine speed of the booster ve- hicle at about 2,000 rpm, and start the en-
gine of the vehicle being jump started.
CAUTION
Do not keep the starter motor engaged for
more than 10 seconds. If the engine does
not start right away, turn the key off and
wait 3 to 4 seconds before trying again.
7. After starting the engine, carefully discon- nect the negative cable and then the positive
cable.

●If the “Low Fuel Pressure Service Fuel
System” message is displayed on the
vehicle information display with the
engine running, complete a full key
cycle and restart the vehicle. If the mes-
sage is still displayed or the Malfunc-
tion Indicator Light is illuminated after
a full key cycle , it is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer for service.
WARNING
● The fuel system (fuel pump, high pres-
sure fuel lines, fuel rail, injectors) con-
tain very high pressure fuel. To avoid the
risk of personal injury or fire;
– Do not loosen any fittings while the engine is running.
– Wait at least 10 minutes after shut- ting down the engine before loosen-
ing any fittings in the high-pressure
fuel system to allow pressure to de-
crease to a lower level.
– Wear appropriate eye protection and protective equipment as high-
pressure fuel spray can penetrate the
skin. – Never smoke or allow sparks or
flames (such as pilot lights, electrical
switches, or welding equipment) in
the work area. Never allow diesel fuel
to spill onto a hot exhaust manifold
which can cause a fire.
● Depending on the circumstance, diesel
fuel is flammable. When inspecting or
performing service or repairs on the fuel
system, to reduce the possibility of fire
and resulting severe personal injury,
death, or property damage, never
smoke or allow sparks or flames (such
as pilot lights, electrical switches, or
welding equipment) in the work area.
● Do not vent the fuel system on a hot
engine; this can cause fuel to spill onto
a hot exhaust manifold, which can
cause a fire.
● Batteries can emit explosive gases. To
reduce the possibility of personal injury,
always ventilate the compartment be-
fore servicing the batteries. To reduce
the possibility of arcing, remove the
negative (-) battery cable first and at-
tach the negative (-) battery cable last. ●
When using a steam cleaner, wear
safety glasses or a face shield, as well
as protective clothing. Hot steam can
cause serious personal injury.
● Wear appropriate eye and face protec-
tion when using compressed air. Flying
debris and dirt can cause personal
injury.
CAUTION
Clean all around the filter area before dis-
assembly. Dirt or contaminants can dam-
age the fuel system.

6-14Do-it-yourself

In order to maintain the proper operation of a
diesel engine, it is important to take proper care
of it, which includes cleaning as indicated.
CLEANING THE ENGINE
Engines are more efficient when they are clean
because grease and dirt buildup keep the engine
warmer than normal.
When washing:● Take care when using a power washer to
clean the engine. The high-pressure fluid
could penetrate the sealed parts and cause
damage.
● Do not spray a hot engine with cold water to
avoid cracking the engine block or other
engine components.
● Spray an engine shampoo and/or degreaser
on all parts that require cleaning and pres-
sure rinse clean.
● Never wash or rinse the engine while it is hot
or running; water in the running engine may
cause internal damage.
● Never wash or rinse any control box electri-
cal connections.
● Cover the battery, power distribution box,
and air filter assembly to prevent water dam-
age when cleaning the engine.
CLEANING THE EXHAUST
The visible holesAin the exhaust system are
functional. The holes need to be kept clear of
mud/debris or foreign material to maintain proper
function of the exhaust system. Clean and re-
move debris or foreign material if present as
needed. Spraying with a hose during regular
washing of vehicle should help keep holes clean
and clear of debris or foreign material.
WARNING
● Failure to maintain the functional holes
in the exhaust system clean and free of
debris or foreign material may result in
the holes becoming blocked or
plugged. Do not modify or remove sec-
tions of the exhaust system that contain
these holes. Blocked or plugged holes
or removal/modification of the system
could result in elevated exhaust gases
or exhaust gas temperatures which may
result in vehicle damage, personal in-
jury or death.
● The normal operating temperature of
the exhaust system is very high. Never
work around or attempt to repair any
part of the exhaust system until it has
cooled. Use special care when working
around the diesel oxidation catalytic
converter and/or the diesel particulate
filter (DPF) . The diesel oxidation cata-
lytic converter and/or the DPF heats up
to a high temperature after only a short
period of engine operation and can stay
hot even after the engine is turned off.
Failure to follow these instructions may
result in personal injury.

7-2Vehicle Care

WARNING
A vehicle equipped with Four-Wheel Drive
(4WD) should never be tested using a two
wheel dynamometer (such as the dyna-
mometers used by some states for emis-
sions testing) , or similar equipment. Make
sure you inform the test facility personnel
that your vehicle is equipped with 4WD
before it is placed on a dynamometer.
Using the wrong test equipment may re-
sult in transmission damage or unex-
pected vehicle movement which could re-
sult in serious vehicle damage or personal
injury.
Due to legal requirements in some states and
Canadian Provinces, your vehicle may be re-
quired to be in what is called the “ready condi-
tion” for an Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) test of
the emission control system.
If a powertrain system component is repaired or
the battery is disconnected, the vehicle may be
reset to a “not ready” condition.
The vehicle is set to the “ready condition” when it
is driven through certain driving patterns. Usually,
the ready condition can be obtained by ordinary
usage of the vehicle.
