oil pressure NISSAN TITAN 2019 Owner´s Manual

The stage 1 fuel filter separates water and
filters impurities from the fuel. The stage 2
fuel filter filters finer impurities from the
diesel fuel. The stage 1 and stage 2 fuel
filters should be changed at the recom-
mended service interval or when indicated
by the information display. For additional
information, refer to “Maintenance and
schedules” and “Instruments and controls”
sections of the Titan Owner’s Manual.
The water/fuel separator should be
drained when indicated by illumination of
the water in fuel warning light.
NOTE:
Proper fuel filter maintenance and
prompt water draining when the water
in the fuel filter warning light illuminates
is essential to prevent damage to fuel
injection system components. Ignoring
the water in fuel warning light can cause
your vehicle to go into a reduced power
mode and has the potential for fuel sys-
tem damage.ENGINE PROTECTION MODE
The diesel engine in this vehicle is equipped
with electronically controlled fuel and
emission systems. Both systems monitor
engine temperatures and pressures, and
then modif y engine operation accordingly.
It is normal for the diesel engine to operate
under these modified conditions for short
durations of time. If the engine operates
under the modified conditions for ex-
tended periods of time, and the service en-
gine soon light is illuminated, have the sys-
tem checked. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service as
soon as possible.
LUBRICATION SYSTEM
It is important to change the engine oil at
the recommended service intervals to
maintain oil viscosity. Extending the oil and
filter change interval beyond the recom-
mended interval can negatively affect en-
gine performance, fuel economy and en-
gine life. For additional information, refer to
the “Do-it-yourself ” section of this manual.
GLOW PLUGS
The diesel engine glow plug system con-
sists of:∙ Eight Glow Plugs (one per cylinder)
∙ Glow Plug Control Module - Uses input from the Engine Coolant Temperature
Sensor
The glow plugs are energized momentarily
when the ignition is first turned on. The
length of time that the glow plugs are en-
ergized varies depending on engine and
environmental conditions. The required
time for the glow plugs to be energized
decreases as coolant temperature in-
creases. For additional information, refer to
the “Starting and stopping the engine” sec-
tion of this manual.

DEF Low XX% Refill Soon
This message appears when the DEF be-
comes low. It is recommended that the
DEF be topped off. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF)” in
the “Fueling and refueling” section of this
manual. DEF Low XX% Limited Engine Power
Soon
This message appears as the DEF be-
comes low. Engine power will be limited
soon. It is recommended that the DEF be
topped off. For additional information, refer
to “Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF)” in the “Fueling
and refueling” section of this manual.
DEF Low Limited Engine Power In XX
Miles
This message appears when the DEF be-
comes low. Engine power will be limited in
the approximate distance shown. It is rec-
ommended that the DEF be topped off. For
additional information, refer to “Diesel Ex-
haust Fluid (DEF)” in the “Fueling and refuel-
ing” section of this manual.
DEF Empty 5mph Limit Soon See Own-
er’s Manual
This message appears when the DEF be-
comes empty. It is recommended that the
DEF be refilled as soon as possible. The
following conditions will limit the vehicle
speed when this message is shown:
∙ Engine shutdown and restart
∙ Engine is idled for approximately 1 hour ∙ Control module detects a fuel level in-
crease For additional information, refer
to “Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF)” in the “Fu-
eling and refueling” section of this
manual.
DEF Empty Refill DEF See Owner’s
Manual
This message appears when the DEF is
empty and the vehicle speed is reduced to
a maximum of 5 mph. It is recommended
that the DEF be refilled as soon as possible.
For additional information, refer to “Diesel
Exhaust Fluid (DEF)” in the “Fueling and re-
fueling” section of this manual.
DEF System Error See Dealer
This message appears when the DEF sys-
tem encounters an error. It is recom-
mended that you have the system
checked by a NISSAN dealer or other quali-
fied technician. For additional information,
refer to “Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF)” in the
“Fueling and refueling” section of this
manual.

will be reduced. It is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer or qualified tech-
nician immediately. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)”
in the “Do-it-yourself ” section of this
manual.
Engine Warming Keep Foot on Brake
This message appears during cold start
conditions when:∙ Brake pedal is depressed
∙ Push-button start button has been pressed
∙ Coolant temperature is below thresh- old
Keep foot on the brake until the engine
starts, which can take up to approximately
4 seconds. For additional information, refer
to “Starting the diesel engine” in the “Start-
ing and stopping the engine” section of this
manual. Engine Shutdown: Stop Safely
This message appears 30 seconds before
the vehicle is shutdown due to an above
normal operating exhaust temperature.
The Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) and
malfunction warning light (red) will illumi-
nate. It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer or other qualified technician
immediately.
Engine Power Reduced
This message appears when the engine is
not operating under normal conditions. For
additional information, refer to “Engine Pro-
tection Mode” in the “Introduction” section
of this manual.
Service Air Filter
This warning appears when the air filter
needs to be serviced. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Air cleaner” in the ”Mainte-
nance” section of the Titan Diesel Owner’s
Manual.Engine Oil Service due XX
This message is a count down of mileage
until the next engine oil service is due. Mile-
age until next required engine oil service
will be displayed by the vehicle information
display and will decrease at a higher rate as
vehicle operation severity (high duty cycle)
increases.
Coolant Level Low: See Owner’s Manual
This warning appears when the coolant
level in the reservoir is below the MIN level.
For additional information, refer to “Engine
Cooling System” in this manual.
Low Fuel Pressure: See Owner’s Manual
This message appears when low fuel pres-
sure has been detected downstream of
the stage 2 fuel filter. This message can
indicate the fuel filters are restricted and
require replacement. It is recommended
that you have the system checked by a
NISSAN dealer or other qualified technician.

CAUTION
If the engine does not start, place the
ignition switch in the OFF position and
wait 10 seconds before cranking again,
otherwise the starter could be
damaged.3. Allow the engine to idle for at least 30 seconds af ter starting. Do not race
the engine while warming it up. Drive at
a moderate speed for a short distance
first, especially in cold weather.
In cold weather, keep the engine run-
ning for a minimum of 2–3 minutes
before shutting it off. Starting and
stopping the engine over a short pe-
riod of time may make the vehicle
more difficult to start.
SWITCHING ENGINE OFF
Push the ignition switch to the OFF posi-
tion.
To prolong the engine life (especially af ter
extended high speed, high ambient tem-
perature, or during heavy load operation,
such as trailering), it is recommended that
a hot engine be idled for 3–5 minutes be-
fore shutting down. This allows the turbo-
charged engine to cool down.
ENGINE BREAK-IN
RECOMMENDATIONS
∙ Warm up the engine before operating it under load.
∙ Do not operate the engine at idle for extended periods.
∙ Prevent engine lugging by selecting the appropriate transmission gear.
∙ Monitor the vehicle oil pressure and temperature gauges.
∙ Check fluid levels frequently (oil and coolant).
∙ Vary the throttle position at highway speeds when carrying weight or tow-
ing.
NOTE:
Extended light or no load operation will
extend the time before the engine
reaches its full efficiency. If the engine is
operated in this manner, reduced fuel
economy and power may be observed.
The aforementioned procedure should be
observed for the first 6,000 miles. The en-
gine run-in is improved by operating the
vehicle under load.
REMOTE ENGINE START (if so
equipped)
CAUTION
Laws in some jurisdictions prohibit use
of Remote Engine Start.
Vehicles started with the Remote Engine
Start require the ignition switch to be
placed in the ON position before the shif t
lever can be moved from the P (Park) posi-
tion. To place the ignition switch in the ON
position, follow these steps: 1. Make sure that the Intelligent Key is on you.
2. Apply the brake.
3. Push the ignition switch once to the ON position.
For additional information, refer to “NISSAN
Intelligent Key®” in the “Pre-driving checks
and adjustments” section of the Titan
Owner’s Manual.
