GAS STATION INFORMATION RECOMMENDED FUEL: Use unleaded premium gasoline with an octane rating of at least 91 AKI (Anti-Knock Index) number (Research octane number 96). If unleaded premium gasoline is not available unleaded regular gasoline with an octane rating of 87 AKI (Anti-Knock Index) number (Research octane number 91) can be used, but only under the following precautions: ● Have the fuel tank filled only partially with unleaded regular gasoline, and fill up with unleaded premium as soon as possible. ● Avoid full throttle driving, and abrupt acceleration. However, for maximum vehicle performance, the use of unleaded premium gasoline is recommended. ● Do not use E-85 fuel in your vehicle. Your vehicle is not designed to run on E-85 fuel. Using E-85 fuel can damage the fuel system components and is not covered by the NISSAN new vehicle limited warranty. For additional information, see "Capacities and recommended fuel/lubricants in the "Technical and consumer information" section. RECOMMENDED NEW VEHICLE BREAK-IN PROCEDURE: During the first 1,200 miles (2,000 km) of vehicle use, follow the recommendations outlined in the "BREAK-IN SCHEDULE" information found in the "Starting and driving" section of this manual. Follow these recommendations for the future reliability and economy of your new vehicle. Failure to follow these recommendations may result in vehicle damage or shortened engine life. RECOMMENDED ENGINE OIL: ● Engine oil with API Certification Mark ● Viscosity SAE 5W-30 See "Engine oil and oil filter recommendation" in the "Technical and consumer information" section of this manual. COLD TIRE PRESSURE: See Tire and Loading Information label. The label is typically located on the driver side center pillar or on the driver's door. For additional information, see "Wheels and tires" in the "Maintenance and do-it-yourself" section. CAUTION ● Using a fuel other than that specified could adversely affect the emission control system, and may also affect the warranty coverage. ● Under no circumstances should a leaded gasoline be used, because this will damage the three-way catalyst.
