| Item | Reference Information | |
|---|---|---|
| Windshield washer fluid | Check that there is adequate fluid in the tank. | |
| Engine coolant level | Check the coolant level when the engine is cold. | ENGINE COOLANT PERIODIC MAINTENANCE |
| Radiator and hoses | Check the front of the radiator and clean off any dirt, insects, leaves, etc., that may have accumulated. Make sure the hoses have no cracks, deformation, deterioration or loose connections. | RADIATOR |
| Brake fluid level | Make sure that the brake fluid level is between the "MAX" and "MIN" lines on the reservoir. | BRAKE FLUID LEVEL AND LEAKS |
| 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 frequent checks of the battery fluid level. | BASIC INSPECTION |
| Engine drive belts | Make sure that no belt is frayed, worn, cracked or oily. | DRIVE BELTS |
| Engine oil level | Check the level on the oil level gauge after parking the vehicle on a level spot and turning off the engine. | PERIODIC MAINTENANCE |
| 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. | EXHAUST SYSTEM |
| 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, otherwise rust will form on the floor pan, frame, fuel lines and around the exhaust system. 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 accumulate. | |
| 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. | |

Scheme 42
Scheme 43
Scheme 44
- Set road wheel on tire balance machine using the center hole as a guide. Start the tire balance machine.
- When inner and outer unbalance values are shown on the tire balance machine indicator, multiply outer unbalance value by 5/3 to determine balance weight that should be used. Select the outer balance weight with a value closest to the calculated value above and install in to the designated outer position of, or at the designated angle in relation to the road wheel. CAUTION: Do not install the inner balance weight before installing the outer balance weight. Before installing the balance weight, be sure to clean the mating surface of the road wheel. Indicated unbalance value x 5/3 = balance weight to be installed Calculation example: 23 g (0.81 oz.) x 5/3 = 38.33 g (1.35 oz.) => 40 g (1.41 oz.) balance weight (closer to calculated balance weight value) NOTE: Note that balance weight value must be closer to the calculated balance weight value. Example: 37.4 => 35 g (1.23 oz.) 37.5 => 40 g (1.41 oz.) Installed balance weight in the position. When installing balance weight (1) to road wheels, set it into the grooved area (A) on the inner wall of the road wheel as shown in the figure so that the balance weight center (B) is aligned with the tire balance machine indication position (angle) (C). CAUTION: Always use genuine NISSAN adhesion balance weights. Balance weights are non-reusable; always replace with new ones. Do not install more than three sheets of balance weight. If calculated balance weight value exceeds 50 g (1.76 oz.), install two balance weight sheets in line with each other as shown in the figure. CAUTION: Do not install one balance weight sheet on top another.
- Start tire balance machine again.
- Install drive-in balance weight on inner side of road wheel in the tire balance machine indication position (angle). CAUTION: Do not install more than two balance weight.
- Start tire balance machine. Make sure that inner and outer residual unbalance values are 5 g (0.17 oz.) each or below.
- If either residual unbalance value exceeds 5 g (0.17 oz.), repeat installation procedures. WHEEL BALANCE REFERENCE CHART Wheel balance Dynamic (At flange) Static (At flange) Maximum allowable unbalance Refer to " «ROAD WHEEL : ROAD WHEEL»(ref-405871-S26003200872011062300000) ".
