have accumulated. Make sure the hoses have no cracks, deformation, deteriora-
tion or loose connections.

—

Brake fluid level

Make sure that the brake fluid level is between the “MAX” and “MIN” lines on the
reservoir.

MA-34

Battery

Check the fluid level in each cell. It should be between the “MAX” and “MIN” lines.
Vehicles operated in high temperatures or under severe conditions require fre-
quent checks of the battery fluid level.

PG-3

Make sure that no belt is frayed, worn, cracked or oily.

MA-18

Engine oil level

Check the level on the oil level gauge after parking the vehicle on a level spot and
turning off the engine.

LU-7

Power steering fluid
level and lines

Check the level on the dipstick with the engine off. Check the lines for improper at-
tachment, leaks, cracks, etc.

MA-36

Exhaust system

Make sure there are no loose supports, cracks or holes. If the sound of the exhaust
seems unusual or there is a smell of exhaust fumes, immediately locate the trouble
and correct it.

MA-28

Underbody

The underbody is frequently exposed to corrosive substances such as those used
on icy roads or to control dust. It is very important to remove these substances, oth-
erwise rust will form on the floor pan, frame, fuel lines and around the exhaust sys-
tem. At the end of winter, the underbody should be thoroughly flushed with plain
water, being careful to clean those areas where mud and dirt can easily accumu-
late.

—

Fluid leaks

Check under the vehicle for fuel, oil, water or other fluid leaks after the vehicle has
been parked for a while. Water dripping from the air conditioner after use is normal.
If you should notice any leaks or gasoline fumes are evident, check for the cause
and correct it immediately.

CONSULT-III every 100,000 km (60,000 miles), then change CVT fluid NS-2 if necessary. (Refer to

TM-34, "CONSULT-III Function

(TRANSMISSION)"

.) And if CONSULT-III is not available, change (not just inspect) CVT fluid NS-2 every 100,000 km (60,000 miles).

Using transmission fluid other than Genuine NISSAN CVT Fluid NS-2 will damage the CVT, which is not covered by the war-
ranty.
