wheel studs or nuts. This could
cause the nuts to become loose.

. Retighten the wheel nuts when the

vehicle has been driven for 600
miles (1,000 km) (also in cases of a
flat tire, etc.).

As soon as possible, tighten the

wheel nuts to the specified torque
with a torque wrench.

Wheel nut tightening torque:

80 ft-lb (108 N·m)

The wheel nuts must be kept tightened
to specifications at all times. It is
recommended that the wheel nuts be

tightened to specifications at each
lubrication interval.

Adjust tire pressure to the COLD

pressure.

COLD pressure:

After the vehicle has been parked for 3
hours or more or driven less than 1 mile
(1.6 km).

COLD tire pressures are shown on the
Tire and Loading Information label
affixed to the driver side center pillar.

Stowing the damaged tire and the tools

1. Securely store the jack, tools and the

damaged tire in the storage area.

2. Replace the cargo floor box and board.

3. Close the liftgate.

WARNING

jewelry or clothing to come into contact
with, or get caught in, engine belts or
the engine cooling fan. The engine
cooling fan can start at any time.

7. After the engine cools down, check the

coolant level in the reservoir with the engine
running. Add coolant to the reservoir if
necessary. Have your vehicle repaired. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer for
this service.

When towing your vehicle, all State (Provincial in
Canada) and local regulations for towing must
be followed. Incorrect towing equipment could
damage your vehicle. Towing instructions are
available from a NISSAN dealer. Local service
operators are familiar with the applicable laws
and procedures for towing. To assure proper
towing and to prevent accidental damage to
your vehicle, NISSAN recommends that you
have a service operator tow your vehicle. It is
advisable to have the service operator carefully
read the following precautions.

WARNING

. Never ride in a vehicle that is being

towed.

. Never get under your vehicle after it

has been lifted by a tow truck.

CAUTION

. When towing, make sure that the

transmission, axles, steering system
and powertrain are in working con-
dition. If any unit is damaged, dol-
lies must be used.

NISSAN recommends that towing dollies be
used when towing your vehicle or the vehicle be
placed on a flat bed truck as illustrated.

CAUTION

Never tow AWD models with any of the
wheels on the ground as this may cause
serious and expensive damage to the
powertrain.

VEHICLE RECOVERY (freeing a stuck
vehicle)

WARNING

To avoid vehicle damage, serious per-
sonal injury or death when recovering a
stuck vehicle:

. Contact a professional towing ser-

vice to recover the vehicle if you
have any questions regarding the
recovery procedure.

. Tow chains or cables must be at-

tached only to main structural mem-

bers of the vehicle.

. Do not use the vehicle tie-downs to

tow or free a stuck vehicle.

. Only use devices specifically de-

signed for vehicle recovery and
follow the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions.

. Always pull the recovery device

straight out from the front of the
vehicle. Never pull at an angle.

. Route recovery devices so they do

not touch any part of the vehicle
except the attachment point.

If your vehicle is stuck in sand, snow, mud, etc.,
use a tow strap or other device designed
specifically for vehicle recovery. Always follow
the manufacturer’s instructions for the recovery
device.

Rocking a stuck vehicle

If your vehicle is stuck in sand, snow, mud, etc.,
use the following procedure:

1. Turn off the Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)

system.

2. Make sure the area in front and behind the

vehicle is clear of obstructions.

km/h).

5. If the vehicle cannot be freed after a few

tries, contact a professional towing service
to remove the vehicle.

7-2

Appearance and care

In order to maintain the appearance of your
vehicle, it is important to take proper care of it.

To protect the paint surfaces, wash your vehicle
as soon as you can:
. after a rainfall to prevent possible damage

from acid rain

. after driving on coastal roads
. when contaminants such as soot, bird

droppings, tree sap, metal particles or bugs
get on the paint surface

. when dust or mud builds up on the surface
Whenever possible, store or park your vehicle
inside a garage or in a covered area.

When it is necessary to park outside, park in a
shady area or protect the vehicle with a body
cover.

Be careful not to scratch the paint surface
when putting on or removing the body
cover.

WASHING

Wash dirt off the vehicle with a wet sponge and
plenty of water. Clean the vehicle thoroughly
using a mild soap, a special vehicle soap or
general purpose dishwashing liquid mixed with
clean, lukewarm (never hot) water.

CAUTION

. Do not use car washes that use acid

in the detergent. Some car washes,
especially brushless ones, use some
acid for cleaning. The acid may react
with some plastic vehicle compo-
nents, causing them to crack. This
could affect their appearance, and
also could cause them not to func-
tion properly. Always check with
your car wash to confirm that acid
is not used.

. Do not wash the vehicle with strong

household soap, strong chemical
detergents, gasoline or solvents.

. Do not wash the vehicle in direct

sunlight or while the vehicle body is
hot, as the surface may become
water-spotted.

. Avoid using tight-napped or rough

cloths, such as washing mitts. Care
must be taken when removing
caked-on dirt or other foreign sub-
stances so the paint surface is not
scratched or damaged.

Rinse the vehicle thoroughly with plenty of clean
water.

Inside flanges, seams and folds on the doors,
hatches and hood are particularly vulnerable to
the effects of road salt. Therefore, these areas
must be regularly cleaned. Make sure that the
drain holes in the lower edge of the door are
open. Spray water under the body and in the
wheel wells to loosen the dirt and wash away
road salt.

Avoid leaving water spots on the paint surface
by using a damp chamois to dry the vehicle.

CLEANING EXTERIOR

JVA0014X

Model with rear spoiler

CAUTION

Do not use an automatic car wash for
model with rear spoiler. The rear spoiler
may be damaged.

WAXING

Regular waxing protects the paint surface and
helps retain new vehicle appearance. Polishing
is recommended to remove built-up wax residue
and to avoid a weathered appearance before
reapplying wax.

A NISSAN dealer can assist you in choosing the
proper product.
. Wax your vehicle only after a thorough

washing. Follow the instructions supplied
with the wax.

. Do not use a wax containing any abrasives,

cutting compounds or cleaners that may
damage the vehicle finish.

Machine compound or aggressive polishing on a
base coat/clear coat paint finish may dull the
finish or leave swirl marks.

REMOVING SPOTS

Remove tar and oil spots, industrial dust,
insects, and tree sap as quickly as possible
from the paint surface to avoid lasting damage
or staining. Special cleaning products are
available at a NISSAN dealer or any automotive
accessory stores.

UNDERBODY

In areas where road salt is used in winter, the
underbody must be cleaned regularly. This will
prevent dirt and salt from building up and
causing the acceleration of corrosion on the
underbody and suspension. Before the winter
period and again in the spring, the underseal
must be checked and, if necessary, re-treated.

GLASS

Use glass cleaner to remove smoke and dust
film from the glass surfaces. It is normal for glass
to become coated with a film after the vehicle is
parked in the hot sun. Glass cleaner and a soft
cloth will easily remove this film.

CAUTION

When cleaning the inside of the win-
dows, do not use sharp-edged tools,
abrasive cleaners or chlorine-based
disinfectant cleaners. They could da-
mage the electrical conductors, radio
antenna elements or rear window
defroster elements.

Appearance and care

7-3

7-4

Appearance and care

WHEELS

Wash the wheels when washing the vehicle to
maintain their appearance.
. Clean the inner side of the wheels when the

wheel is changed or the underside of the
vehicle is washed.

. Inspect wheel rims regularly for dents or

corrosion. Such damage may cause loss of
pressure or poor seal at the tire bead.

. NISSAN recommends that the road wheels

be waxed to protect against road salt in
areas where it is used during winter.

CAUTION

Do not use abrasive cleaners when
washing the wheels.

ALUMINUM ALLOY WHEELS

Wash regularly with a sponge dampened in a
mild soap solution, especially during winter
months in areas where road salt is used. Salt
could discolor the wheels if not removed.

CAUTION

Follow the directions below to avoid
staining or discoloring the wheels:

. Do not use a cleaner that uses

strong acid or alkali contents to
clean the wheels.

. Do not apply wheel cleaners to the

wheels when they are hot. The
wheel temperature should be the
same as ambient temperature.

. Rinse the wheel to completely re-

move the cleaner within 15 minutes
after the cleaner is applied.

CHROME PARTS

Clean chrome parts regularly with a non-
abrasive chrome polish to maintain the finish.

TIRE DRESSING

NISSAN does not recommend the use of tire
dressings. Tire manufacturers apply a coating to
the tires to help reduce discoloration of the
rubber. If a tire dressing is applied to the tires, it
may react with the coating and form a com-
pound. This compound may come off the tire
while driving and stain the vehicle paint.

If you choose to use a tire dressing, take the
following precautions:
. Use a water-based tire dressing. The coat-

ing on the tire dissolves more easily with an
oil-based tire dressing.

. Apply a light coat of tire dressing to help

prevent it from entering the tire tread/
grooves (where it would be difficult to
remove).

. Wipe off excess tire dressing using a dry

towel. Make sure the tire dressing is
completely removed from the tire tread/
grooves.

. Allow the tire dressing to dry as recom-

mended by tire dressing manufacturer.

Occasionally remove loose dust from the interior
trim, plastic parts and seats using a vacuum
cleaner or soft bristled brush. Wipe the vinyl and
leather surfaces with a clean, soft cloth dam-
pened in mild soap solution, then wipe clean
with a dry soft cloth.

Regular care and cleaning is required in order to
maintain the appearance of the leather.

Before using any fabric protector, read the
manufacturer’s recommendations. Some fabric
protectors contain chemicals that may stain or
bleach the seat material.

Use a cloth dampened only with water, to clean
the meter and gauge lens.

WARNING

Do not use water or acidic cleaners (hot
steam cleaners) on the seat. This can
damage the seat or occupant classifica-
tion sensors. This can also affect the
operation of the air bag system and
result in serious personal injury.

CAUTION

. Never use benzine, thinner, or any

similar material.

. For cleaning, use a soft cloth, dam-

pened with water. Never use a rough
cloth, alcohol, benzine, thinner or
any kind of solvent or paper towel
with a chemical cleaning agent.
They will scratch or cause discolora-
tion to the lens.

. Do not spray any liquid such as

water on the meter lens. Spraying
liquid may cause the system to
malfunction.

. Small dirt particles can be abrasive

and damaging to the leather sur-
faces and should be removed
promptly. Do not use saddle soap,
car waxes, polishes, oils, cleaning
fluids, solvents, detergents or am-
monia-based cleaners as they may
damage the leather’s natural finish.

. Never use fabric protectors unless

recommended by the manufacturer.

. Do not use glass or plastic cleaner

on meter or gauge lens covers. It

may damage the lens cover.

AIR FRESHENERS

Most air fresheners use a solvent that could
affect the vehicle interior. If you use an air
freshener, take the following precautions:
. Hanging-type air fresheners can cause

permanent discoloration when they contact
vehicle interior surfaces. Place the air
freshener in a location that allows it to hang
free and not contact an interior surface.

. Liquid-type air fresheners typically clip on

the vents. These products can cause
immediate damage and discoloration when
spilled on interior surfaces.

Carefully read and follow the manufacturer’s
instructions before using air fresheners.

FLOOR MATS

WARNING

To avoid potential pedal interference
that may result in a collision, injury or
death:

. NEVER place a floor mat on top of

another floor mat in the driver front
position or install them upside
down or backwards.
