Distance to empty
The distance to empty mode provides you with an
estimation of the distance that can be driven
before refueling. The range is constantly being
calculated, based on the amount of fuel in the fuel
tank and the actual fuel consumption.
The distance to empty includes a low range
warning feature: when the fuel level is low, the
distance to empty is automatically selected and
the digits blink in order to draw the driver’s atten-
tion. Press the trip computer change button
Aif
you wish to return to the mode that was selected
before the warning occurred.
When the fuel level drops even lower, the dis-
tance to empty will display (----) .
Trip computer reset
Pushing the change button for more than 3 sec-
onds will reset all modes except Trip A and dis-
tance to empty (dte) .
SERVICE INTERVAL REMINDER (if so
equipped)
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, a wrench symbol and the distance to oil
change information will illuminate on the display
for approximately 5 seconds. The wrench symbol
and distance to oil change switch to oil display status. Then the oil display status switches to
odometer and twin trip odometer/trip computer
information mode that was displayed before the
ignition switch was placed in the ACC, OFF or
LOCK position.
The oil level display status provides specific in-
formation regarding your approximate engine oil
level.
If the oil level is sufficient, “Oil Good” is displayed
for approximately 10 seconds. If the oil level is
low, “Oil Lo” blinks for approximately 30 seconds
in order to draw your attention to necessary ac-
tion.
Quickly push and release the trip computer
change button
Aon the instrument panel lo-
cated near the speedometer
Bduring the “Oil
Good” or “Oil Lo” mode to display an approxi-
mate oil level indication.
In case of low engine oil level, see “Engine oil” in
the “Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section for
the proper engine oil refilling procedure.

It is possible to adjust the interval distance to oil
change by pushing the trip computer change
button
Aon the instrument panel located near
the speedometer
Bfor 3 seconds while the
wrench symbol and distance to oil change are
displayed. The symbol and distance display will start flashing and the display shows the current
interval. Push the switch to increase the interval
distance. Each step increases the interval dis-
tance by 500 mi (1,000 km). The interval distance
can be set up to 18,000 mi (30,000 km) after
which the display returns to zero.
If no further action is made, the display returns to
oil display status indication and the new interval is
set.
If the interval distance is set to 0, the display will

2-10Instruments and controls

Your NISSAN has been designed to have mini-
mum maintenance requirements with long ser-
vice intervals to save you both time and money.
However, some day-to-day and regular mainte-
nance is essential to maintain your NISSAN’s
good mechanical condition, as well as its emis-
sions and engine performance.
It is the owner’s responsibility to make sure that
the scheduled maintenance, as well as general
maintenance, is performed.
As the vehicle owner, you are the only one who
can ensure that your vehicle receives proper
maintenance. You are a vital link in the mainte-
nance chain.
Scheduled maintenance
For your convenience, both required and optional
scheduled maintenance items are described and
listed in your “NISSAN Service and Maintenance
Guide”. You must refer to that guide to ensure
that necessary maintenance is performed on your
NISSAN at regular intervals.
General maintenance
General maintenance includes those items which
should be checked during normal day-to-day op-
eration. They are essential for proper vehicle op-
eration. It is your responsibility to perform these
maintenance procedures regularly as prescribed.Performing general maintenance checks requires
minimal mechanical skill and only a few general
automotive tools.
These checks or inspections can be done by you,
a qualified technician, or, if you prefer, a NISSAN
dealer.
Where to go for service
If maintenance service is required or your vehicle
appears to malfunction, have the systems
checked and corrected by a NISSAN dealer.
NISSAN technicians are well-trained specialists
who are kept up-to-date with the latest service
information through technical bulletins, service
tips, and in-dealership training programs. They
are completely qualified to work on NISSAN ve-
hicles
before they work on your vehicle, rather
than after they have worked on it.
You can be confident that a NISSAN dealer’s
service department performs the best job to meet
the maintenance requirements on your vehicle —
in a reliable and economical way. During the normal day-to-day operation of the
vehicle, general maintenance should be per-
formed regularly as prescribed in this section. If
you detect any unusual sounds, vibrations or
smells, be sure to check for the cause or have a
NISSAN dealer do it promptly. In addition, you
should notify a NISSAN dealer if you think that
repairs are required.
When performing any checks or maintenance
work, closely observe the “Maintenance precau-
tions” later in this section.
EXPLANATION OF GENERAL
MAINTENANCE ITEMS
Additional information on the following
items with“*”isfound later in this section.
Outside the vehicle
The maintenance items listed here should be
performed from time to time, unless otherwise
specified.
Doors and engine hood
Check that the doors
and engine hood operate properly. Also ensure
that all latches lock securely. Lubricate hinges,
latches, latch pins, rollers and links as necessary.
Make sure that the secondary latch keeps the
hood from opening when the primary latch is
released.
MAINTENANCE REQUIREMENTS GENERAL MAINTENANCE
8-2Maintenance and do-it-yourself

Your engine was filled with a high-quality engine
oil when it was built. You do not have to change
the oil before the first recommended change
interval. Oil and filter change intervals depend
upon how you use your vehicle.
Operation under the following conditions may
require more frequent oil and filter changes:● repeated short distance driving at cold out-
side temperatures
● driving in dusty conditions
● extensive idling
● stop and go commuting
Refer to the “NISSAN Service and Maintenance
Guide” for the maintenance schedule.
AIR CONDITIONER SYSTEM (if so
equipped) REFRIGERANT AND OIL
RECOMMENDATIONS
The air conditioner system in your NISSAN
vehicle must be charged with the refriger-
ant HFC-134a (R-134a) and the oil, NISSAN
A/C system oil Type R or the exact equiva-
lents.
CAUTION
The use of any other refrigerant or oil will
cause severe damage to the air condition-
ing system and will require the replace-
ment of all air conditioner system
components.
The refrigerant HFC-134a (R-134a) in your
NISSAN vehicle does not harm the earth’s ozone
layer. Although this refrigerant does not affect the
earth’s atmosphere, certain government regula-
tions require the recovery and recycling of any
refrigerant during automotive air conditioner sys-
tem service. A NISSAN dealer has the trained
technicians and equipment needed to recover
and recycle your air conditioner system refriger-
ant.
Contact a NISSAN dealer when servicing your air
conditioner system.
