POWER STEERING FLUID BRAKE AND CLUTCH FLUID For further brake and clutch fluid specification information, refer to ''Capacities and recommended fuel/lubricants'' in the ''Technical and consumer information'' section of this manual. WARNING Use only new fluid from a sealed container. Old, inferior or contaminated fluid may damage the brake and clutch systems. The use of improper fluids can affect the vehicle's stopping ability. ADI1120 ADI0716 The fluid level should be checked using the HOT MAX range on the power steering fluid reservoir at fluid temperatures of 122 to 176°F (50 to 80°C) or using the COLD MAX range on the power steering fluid reservoir at fluid temperatures of 32 to 86°F (0 to 30°C). CAUTION ● DO NOT OVERFILL. ● Recommended fluid is Genuine NISSAN PSFII or equivalent. Check the brake fluid level in the reservoir. If the fluid level is below the MIN line or the brake warning light comes on, add DOT 3 fluid up to the MAX line. Check the clutch fluid level in the reservoir (manual transmission only). If the fluid level is below the MIN line, add DOT 3 fluid up to the MAX line. If fluid must be added frequently, the system should be thoroughly checked by an authorized NISSAN dealer. CAUTION Do not spill the fluid on painted surfaces. This will damage the paint. If fluid is spilled, wash the surface with water. Maintenance and do-it-yourself 8-17
