CHANGING ENGINE COOLANT

A NISSAN dealer can change the engine coolant.

The service procedure can be found in the

NISSAN Service Manual.
Improper servicing can result in reduced
heater performance and engine overheat-
ing.

WARNING

To avoid the danger of being scalded,

never change the coolant when the en-

gine is hot.

Never remove the radiator or engine

coolant reservoir cap when the engine

is hot. Serious burns could be caused

by high pressure fluid escaping from

the radiator.

Avoid direct skin contact with used

coolant. If skin contact is made, wash

thoroughly with soap or hand cleaner

as soon as possible.

Keep coolant out of the reach of chil-

dren and pets.

Engine coolant must be disposed of properly.

Check your local regulations.

CHECKING ENGINE OIL LEVEL

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.

3. Turn off the engine. Wait more than 10

minutes for the oil to drain back into

the oil pan.

4. Remove the dipstick and wipe it clean. Re-

insert it all the way.
