DETERMINING THE PROPER MAINTENANCE INTERVAL As a condition of your vehicle's warranty, you are responsible for properly maintaining your vehicle. In maintaining your vehicle, you should use these guidelines to determine which maintenance schedule to use. Standard maintenance; features 5,000 mile or 6 month, whichever comes first, service intervals and generally applies when you primarily operate your vehicle on the highway in temperate conditions. Premium maintenance is a Nissan recommended optional upgrade that adds services when maintenance is performed. Exceptions: 1. Use of E85 in a Titan or Armada FFV (flex fuel vehicle) requires engine oil and filter replacement every 3,750 miles or 3 months. 2. NV200 Taxi requires engine oil and filter replacement every 3,750 miles or 3 months. Premium Maintenance;* performing the Premium upgrade services may optimize the performance, durability, reliability, and resale value of your vehicle. (Premium Maintenance items are available at every 30,000 miles or 36 months interval.) Additional maintenance items for severe operating conditions; should be performed on vehicles that are driven under especially demanding conditions. Additional maintenance items should be performed if you primarily operate your vehicle under the following conditions: ● Repeated short trips of less than 5 miles in normal temperatures or less than 10 miles in freezing temperatures. ● Stop-and-go traffic in hot weather or low speed driving for long distances ● Driving in dusty conditions or on rough, muddy, or salt-spread roads ● Towing a trailer, or using a camper or car-top carrier ❑ For the ultimate in preventative maintenance, ask your Service Advisor for a complimentary Multi-Point Inspection every time you visit your participating Nissan dealer. See page 16 for more information on Multi-Point Inspections. * Premium Maintenance is a Nissan-recommended option; You need not perform such maintenance in order to maintain the warranties which come with your Nissan.
