you visit a NISSAN dealer or qualified tech-
nician immediately. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)”

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.

NOTE:
The factory fill oil may include a red dye
that is added for manufacturing quality
processes. The dye makes the oil appear
to be red. This is normal. The red dye will
be flushed from the engine af ter ap-
proximately 4–5 oil changes.1. Park the vehicle on a level surface and apply the parking brake.
2. Start the engine and let it idle until it reaches operating temperature, then
turn it off.
3. Remove the oil filler cap
Aby turning it
counterclockwise.
4. Place a large drain pan under the drain plug
B.
5. Remove the drain plug
Bwith a
wrench by turning it counterclockwise
and completely drain the oil.
Remove and replace the engine oil fil-
ter at this time. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Changing engine oil filter”
in this section.
∙ Waste oil must be disposed of prop-
erly.
∙ Check your local regulations.
WARNING
∙ Prolonged and repeated contact with
used engine oil may cause skin
cancer.
∙ Try to avoid direct skin contact with used oil. If skin contact is made, wash
thoroughly with soap or hand cleaner
as soon as possible.
∙ Keep used engine oil out of reach of children.
CAUTION
Be careful not to burn yourself. The en-
gine oil may be hot.
6. Clean and reinstall the drain plug. Se- curely tighten the drain plug with a
wrench. Do not use excessive force.
Drain plug tightening torque: 25 f t-lb (34 N·m) 7. Refill engine with recommended oil
through the oil filler opening, then install
the oil filler cap securely.
For additional information on drain
and refill capacity, refer to “Recom-
mended fluids/lubricants and capaci-
ties” in the “Capacities and specifica-
tions” section of this manual.
The drain and refill capacity depends
on the oil temperature and drain time.
Use these specifications for reference
only. Always use the dipstick to deter-
mine when the proper amount of oil is
in the engine.
8. Start the engine. Check for leakage around the drain plug and oil filter. Cor-
rect as required.
9. Turn the engine off and wait more than 10 minutes. Check the oil level with the
dipstick. Add engine oil if necessary.
NOTE:
For additional information on resetting
the oil control system, refer to “Resetting
the oil control system” in the “Instrument
panel” section of this manual.

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.
