Refill the reservoir more frequently when driving

conditions require an increased amount of win-

dow washer fluid.
Recommended fluid is Genuine NISSAN Wind-

shield Washer Concentrate Cleaner & Anti-

freeze or equivalent.

CAUTION

Do not substitute engine anti-freeze

coolant for window washer solution.

This may result in damage to the paint.

Do not fill the window washer reservoir

tank with washer fluid concentrates at

full strength. Some methyl alcohol

based washer fluid concentrates may

permanently stain the grille if spilled

while filling the window washer reser-

voir tank.

Pre-mix washer fluid concentrates with

water to the manufacturer’s recom-

mended levels before pouring the fluid

into the window washer reservoir tank.

Do not use the window washer reservoir

tank to mix the washer fluid concen-

trate and water.

● Keep the battery surface clean and dry.

Clean the battery with a solution of baking

soda and water.

● Make certain the terminal connections are

clean and securely tightened.

● If the vehicle is not to be used for 30 days or

longer, disconnect the negative (-) battery

terminal cable to prevent discharge.

WARNING

Do not expose the battery to flames or

electrical sparks. Hydrogen gas gener-

ated by the battery is explosive. Do not

allow battery fluid to contact your skin,

eyes, fabrics or painted surfaces. After

touching a battery or battery cap, do not

touch or rub your eyes. Thoroughly

wash your hands. If the acid contacts

your eyes, skin or clothing, immediately

flush with water for at least 15 minutes

and seek medical attention.

Do not operate the vehicle if the fluid in

the battery is low. Low battery fluid can

cause a higher load on the battery

which can generate heat, reduce bat-

tery life, and in some cases lead to an

explosion.

When working on or near a battery, al-

ways wear suitable eye protection and

remove all jewelry.

Battery posts, terminals and related ac-

cessories contain lead and lead com-

pounds. Wash hands after handling.

Keep battery out of the reach of

children.
