light NISSAN TITAN 2019 Owner´s Manual

∙ Do not attempt to top off the fuel tankaf ter the fuel pump nozzle shuts off
automatically. Continued refueling
may cause fuel overflow, resulting in
fuel spray and possibly a fire.
∙ Use only an original equipment type fuel-filler cap as a replacement. It has
a built-in safety valve needed for
proper operation of the fuel system
and emission control system. An in-
correct cap can result in a serious mal-
function and possible injury. It could
also cause the
Malfunction Indi-
cator Light (MIL) to come on.
∙ Do not use starting fluids with this en- gine. It is equipped with an intake air
heater. The use of starting fluid could
cause an explosion, fire, personal in-
jury, system or engine damage.
∙ Do not fill a portable fuel container in the vehicle or trailer. Static electricity
can cause an explosion of flammable
liquid, vapor or gas in any vehicle or
trailer. To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death when filling portable
fuel containers:
– Always place the container on the ground when filling. – Do not use electronic devices when
filling.
– Keep the pump nozzle in contact with the container while you are
filling it.
– Use only approved portable fuel containers for flammable liquid.
CAUTION
∙ For additional information, refer tothe “Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)”
in the “Instruments and Controls” sec-
tion of the Titan Owner’s Manual.
∙ If fuel or Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) is spilled on the vehicle body, flush it
away with water to avoid paint
damage To remove the diesel fuel-filler cap
A:
1. Turn the fuel-filler cap counterclock- wise to remove.
To install the fuel-filler cap: 1. Insert the fuel-filler cap straight into the fuel-filler tube.
2. Turn the cap clockwise until a single click is heard.

WARNING
Always follow the instructions below.
Failure to do so could result in damage
to the charging system and cause per-
sonal injury.1. If the booster battery is in another ve- hicle, position the two vehicles to bring
their batteries near each other.
Do not allow the two vehicles to
touch. 2. Apply the parking brake. Move the shif t
lever to P (Park). Switch off all unneces-
sary electrical systems (lights, heater,
air conditioner, etc.).
3. Ensure the vent caps are level and tight.
4. Remove the fuse/fusible link box and connect jumper cables in the se-
quence illustrated (
A,B,C,D).
CAUTION
∙ Always connect positive () to posi-tive ( ) and negative () to body
ground (for example, strut mounting
bolt, engine lif t bracket, etc.) — not to
the battery.
∙ Make sure the jumper cables do not touch moving parts in the engine
compartment 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 vehicle at about 2,000 rpm, and start
the engine 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. Af ter starting the engine, carefully dis- connect the negative cable and then
the positive cable.

CAUTION
Be sure to remove any old gasket mate-
rial remaining on the sealing surface of
the engine. Failure to do so could lead to
an oil leak and engine damage.7. Fill the new filter with clean engine oil.
8. Coat the gasket on the new filter with clean engine oil.
9. Screw on the oil filter until a slight resis- tance is felt, then tighten an additional
3/4 turn.
10. Start the engine and check for leakage around the oil filter. Correct as required.
11. Install skid plate in reverse order of re- moval.
12. Turn the engine off and wait more than 10 minutes. Check the oil level. Add en-
gine oil if necessary.
CAUTION
Your vehicle may require more frequent
maintenance if it operates on biodiesel
blends between 6% and 10% (B6 and
B10). To avoid damage to your vehicle,
the oil, oil filter, and fuel filter will need
to be replaced af ter a shorter time in-
terval than if your vehicle was operat-
ing on pure petroleum-based diesel.
For additional information, refer to the
“Maintenance and schedules” section in
the Titan Owner’s Manual.
FUEL FILTER REPLACEMENT (stage
1 and 2)
A NISSAN dealer can change the stage 1
and stage 2 fuel filters. The service proce-
dure can be found in the NISSAN Service
Manual.
Improper servicing can result in the vehicle
not starting, fuel leaks and engine stalling.

WARNING
∙ Stay clear from the exhaust outlet andexhaust gases. These can cause burns
or personal injury.
∙ To avoid the risk of personal injury or fire, do not park the vehicle over flam-
mable materials such as dry grass,
waste paper or rags, as hot vehicle
components may ignite them.
CAUTION
To maintain maximum Diesel Particu-
late Filter (DPF) performance, follow
these precautions:
∙ Use ultra low-sulfur fuel.
∙ Use an engine oil specified by NISSAN.For additional information, refer to
“Recommended fluids/lubricants and
capacities” in the “Capacities and
specifications” section of this manual.
If an engine oil not specified by
NISSAN is used, it could cause DPF
malfunction or reduced fuel
efficiency. ∙ Do not modif y the DPF, muffler or ex-
haust pipe. Otherwise it could affect
the DPF performance and cause a
malfunction.
∙ Do not kick or hit the DPF. The DPF has a built-in catalyst system in the muf-
fler. Such an impact could cause DPF
damage.
The DPF reduces the amount of materials
that affect the environment by collecting
particulate matter included in exhaust
gases. Normally, particulate matter accu-
mulated in the DPF is automatically burned
and converted to harmless substances
during driving. However, particulate matter
collected in the DPF cannot be burned un-
der the following conditions: ∙ When vehicle speed remains below 5 mph (8 km/h) for a long period of time.
∙ When the engine is frequently stopped and restarted within 10 minutes.
∙ When the vehicle is frequently used for short journeys of 10 minutes or less.
∙ When the engine is frequently stopped before it has warmed up. In these cases, it becomes difficult to burn
particulate matter that has accumulated
in the DPF. As a result, the DPF warning light
will illuminate/blink and one of the follow-
ing messages will display on the vehicle
information display (in order of severity):
∙ Exhaust Filter Overloaded See Owner’s Manual for Drive Pattern
∙ Exhaust Filter Overloaded Engine Power Reduced See Owner’s Manual
∙ Exhaust Filter Overloaded Immediate Service Required
For additional information, refer to “Meters
and gauges" in the “Instrument panel” sec-
tion of this manual.
CAUTION
∙ If the vehicle continues to be driven with the DPF warning light illumi-
nated and without doing the regen-
eration process, the fail-safe will limit
the engine revolutions and/or torque.
In this case, it is recommended to con-
tact a NISSAN dealer to have the Ser-
vice Regeneration procedure
performed.

Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) storage
The shelf life of DEF is limited, whether it is
stored in containers or in the vehicle’s die-
sel exhaust fluid tank. There are a variety of
factors that can contribute to reducing
DEF’s shelf life, particularly temperature
and duration.
To increase shelf life when storing DEF,
keep the following in mind:∙ Avoid contamination by storing in sealed containers.
∙ Protect from direct sunlight.
∙ Store DEF at temperatures between 23°F and 77°F (-5°C and 25°C) to protect
from overheating or freezing.
DEF has a minimum expected shelf life of
18 months, but its shelf life will be reduced if
the above conditions are not met.
It will be necessary to recheck the DEF con-
centration if it has been stored for an ex-
tensive period of time, or if it has been ex-
posed to water. More information can be
found in the manufacturer’s Owner’s
Manual.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) disposal
Always check with local authorities for
regulations on proper disposing processes
and requirements for DEF.
