● If you must work with the engine running, keep your hands, clothing, hair and tools away from moving fans, belts and any other moving parts. ● It is advisable to secure or remove any loose clothing and remove any jewelry, such as rings, watches, etc., before working on your vehicle. ● Always wear eye protection whenever you work on your vehicle. ● If you must run the engine in an enclosed space such as a garage, be sure there is proper ventilation for exhaust gases to escape. ● Never get under the vehicle while it is supported only by a jack. If it is necessary to work under the vehicle, support it with safety stands. ● Keep smoking materials, flame and sparks away from the fuel tank and battery. ● On gasoline engine models with the multiport fuel injection (MFI) system, the fuel filter or fuel lines should be serviced by an authorized NISSAN dealer because the fuel lines are under high pressure even when the engine is off. CAUTION ● Do not work under the hood while the engine is hot. Turn the engine off and wait until it cools down. ● Never connect or disconnect the battery or any transistorized component while the ignition switch is in the ON position. ● Never leave the engine or automatic transmission related component harnesses disconnected while the ignition switch is in the ON position. ● Avoid contact with used engine oil and coolant. Improperly disposed engine oil, engine coolant, and/or other vehicle fluids can damage the environment. Always conform to local regulations for disposal of vehicle fluid. This ''Maintenance and do-it-yourself'' section gives instructions regarding only those items which are relatively easy for an owner to perform. A genuine NISSAN service manual is also available. See ''Owner's Manual/Service Manual order information'' in the ''Technical and consumer information'' section. You should be aware that incomplete or improper servicing may result in operating difficulties or excessive emissions, and could affect your warranty coverage. If in doubt about any servicing, have it done by an authorized NISSAN dealer. 8-6 Maintenance and do-it-yourself

If you must work with the engine
running, keep your hands, clothing,
hair and tools away from moving
fans, belts and any other moving
parts.
●
It is advisable to secure or remove
any loose clothing and remove any
jewelry, such as rings, watches, etc.,
before working on your vehicle.
●
Always wear eye protection when-
ever you work on your vehicle.
●
If you must run the engine in an
enclosed space such as a garage, be
sure there is proper ventilation for
exhaust gases to escape.
●
Never get under the vehicle while it
is supported only by a jack. If it is
necessary to work under the vehicle,
support it with safety stands.
●
Keep smoking materials, flame and
sparks away from the fuel tank and
battery.
●
On gasoline engine models with the
multiport fuel injection (MFI) system,
the fuel filter or fuel lines should be
serviced by an authorized NISSAN
dealer
because
the
fuel
lines
are
under high pressure even when the
engine is off.
CAUTION
●
Do not work under the hood while
the engine is hot. Turn the engine off
and wait until it cools down.
●
Never connect or disconnect the bat-
tery

nent while the ignition switch is in
the ON position.
●
Never leave the engine or automatic
transmission
related
component
harnesses disconnected while the
ignition switch is in the ON position.
●
Avoid contact with used engine oil
and
coolant.
Improperly
disposed
engine
oil,
engine
coolant,
and/or
other vehicle fluids can damage the
environment. Always conform to lo-
cal regulations for disposal of ve-
hicle fluid.

and
could affect your warranty coverage.
