FUEL INFORMATION

T32A130827-E4200A17-9E77-401E-A7F0-EFA7A8A88C7F

Gasoline engine (model with three-way cat-

alyst)

T32A130827-E7C549AC-7FEA-46F6-A04F-9F16B927AD6D

CAUTION:

Do not use leaded gasoline. Using leaded gaso-

line will damage the three-way catalyst.

QR25DE engine model:

GUID-22018305-9BAB-4201-B6FC-C08EB94AEAE0

For Thailand:

Use UNLEADED REGULAR gasoline or gasohol (up to

E20*) with an octane rating of at least 91 (RON).

*: Gasohol is alcohol blended gasoline. For example,

“E20” is a mixture of approximately 20% fuel ethanol

and 80% unleaded gasoline.

For Mexico:

Use UNLEADED REGULAR gasoline with an octane

rating of at least 87 AKI (Anti-Knock index) number

(Research octane number 91).

Except for Thailand and Mexico:

Use UNLEADED REGULAR gasoline with an octane

rating of at least 91 (RON).

MR20DD engine model:

GUID-22018305-9BAB-4201-B6FC-C08EB94AEAE0

For Thailand:

Use UNLEADED REGULAR gasoline or gasohol (up to

E20*) with an octane rating of at least 91 (RON).

*: Gasohol is alcohol blended gasoline. For example,

“E20” is a mixture of approximately 20% fuel ethanol

and 80% unleaded gasoline.

Except for Thailand:

Use UNLEADED REGULAR gasoline with an octane

rating of at least 91 (RON).

Diesel engine*

T32A130827-F26B4386-311C-4D5E-826B-34ECACEBC1F5

Diesel fuel above 51 cetane and with less than 10 ppm

of sulphur (EN590) must be used.

* If two types of diesel fuel are available, use summer or winter

fuel properly according to the following temperature condi-

tions.

. Above −78C (208F) ... Summer type diesel fuel.

. Below −78C (208F) ... Winter type diesel fuel.

CAUTION:

. Do not use home heating oil, gasoline or

other alternate fuels in your diesel engine.

The use of those or adding those to diesel

fuel can cause engine damage.

. Do not use summer fuel at temperatures

below −78C (208F). The cold temperatures

will cause wax to form in the fuel. As a

result, it may prevent the engine from

running smoothly.

RECOMMENDED SAE VISCOSITY NUM-

BER

Gasoline engine oil

T32A130827-E0270A89-1E93-4E3B-AA7F-DE06AFE6A226

Except for Mexico and Thailand:

5W-30 is preferable.

If 5W-30 is not available, select the viscosity,

from the chart below, that is suitable for the

outside temperature range.

STI0589

Condition: 'Except for China'/

(381,1)

[ Edit: 2014/ 11/ 7 Model: T32-A ]

For Mexico:

10W-30 is preferable.

5W-30 is also preferable and will improve fuel

economy.

If 10W-30 or 5W-30 is not available, select the

viscosity, from the chart below, that is suitable

for the outside temperature range.

STI0589

For Thailand:

0W-20 is preferable.

If 0W-20 is not available, select the viscosity,

from the chart below, that is suitable for the

outside temperature range.

AIR CONDITIONER SYSTEM REFRIGER-

ANT AND LUBRICANT

T32A130827-93730B82-17E4-4831-81BA-5C170F30FE31

The air conditioner system of your vehicle must be

charged with the specified refrigerant and compressor

oil or equivalent.

. Refrigerant

— For Europe: HFO-1234yf (R-1234yf)

— Except for Europe: HFC-134a (R-134a)

. Compressor Oil

— For Europe: Compressor Oil ND-OIL12

— Except for Europe: Compressor Oil ND-OIL8

CAUTION:

Use of any other refrigerants or lubricants will

cause severe damage, and you may need to

replace your vehicle’s entire air conditioner

system.

The release of refrigerants into the atmosphere is

prohibited in many countries and regions. The refrig-

erant in your vehicle will not harm the Earth’s ozone

layer. However, it may contribute in a small part to the

global warming effect. NISSAN recommends that the

refrigerant be appropriately recovered and recycled.

Contact a NISSAN dealer when servicing the air

conditioner system.
