The engine cooling system is filled at the
factory with a high-quality, year-round,
anti-freeze coolant solution. The anti-
freeze solution contains rust and corro-
sion
inhibitors,
therefore
additional
cooling system additives are not neces-
sary.
WARNING
O
Never remove the radiator cap when the
engine is hot. Wait until the engine and
radiator cool down. Serious burns could
be caused by high pressure fluid es-
caping from the radiator. See precau-
tions in “If your vehicle overheats” found
in the “6. In case of emergency” section
of this manual.
O
The radiator is equipped with a pressure
type radiator cap. To prevent engine
damage, use only a genuine NISSAN ra-
diator cap.
CAUTION
When adding or replacing coolant, be sure
to use only a Genuine NISSAN Long Life
Antifreeze/Coolant (green) or equivalent
with the proper mixture ratio of 50% anti-
freeze and 50% demineralized water/
distilled water. The use of other types of
coolant solutions may damage your engine
cooling system.

CHECKING ENGINE COOLANT LEVEL
Check the coolant level
in the reservoir
tank when the engine is cold
. If the
coolant level is below MIN
q
2
, open the
reservoir tank cap and add coolant up to
the MAX
q
1
level. If the reservoir tank is
empty, check the coolant level in the ra-
diator
when the engine is cold.
If there is
insufficient coolant in the radiator, fill the
radiator with coolant up to the filler open-
ing and also add it to the reservoir tank
up to the MAX level
q
1
. Tighten the cap
securely after adding engine coolant.
