DETERMINING THE PROPER MAINTENANCE INTERVAL As a condition of your electric vehicle's warranty, you are responsible for properly maintaining your electric vehicle. In maintaining your electric vehicle, you should follow either Schedule 1 or Schedule 2 as listed below. Use these guidelines to determine which maintenance schedule to use. SCHEDULE 1 (more severe operating conditions) Use Schedule 1 if you primarily operate your electric vehicle under any of these 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 ● Using a car-top carrier SCHEDULE 2 (less severe operating conditions) Schedule 2 features 7,500-mile service intervals; with Schedule 2 fewer maintenance items are regularly checked or replaced than with Schedule 1. Generally, Schedule 2 applies only to highway driving in temperate conditions. Use Schedule 2 only if you primarily operate your electric vehicle under conditions other than those listed in Schedule 1. * This warranty does not apply to vehicles or parts not distributed by Nissan North America and/or sold outside the United States. 8
