ROOF RACK (if so equipped)


Always evenly distribute the cargo on the roof rack. The maximum total load is 125
lb (57 Kg) evenly distributed. Be careful that your vehicle does not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) or the Gross Axle Weight Ratings (GAWR front and rear).


The GVWR and GAWR are located on the Safety Compliance Certification Label (lo- cated on the driver’s side door jamb pillar). For more information regarding GVWR and GAWR, refer to the 9Technical and con- sumer information section of this manual9.


WPD0044


WARNING


Properly secure all cargo with ropes or straps to help prevent it from sliding or shifting. In a sudden stop or collision, unsecured cargo could cause personal injury.


CAUTION


Use care when placing or removing items from the roof rack. If you cannot comfortably lift the items onto the roof rack from the ground, use a ladder or stool.

WARNING


c Gasoline is extremely flammable and highly explosive under certain con- ditions. You could be burned or se- riously injured if it is misused or mishandled. Always stop the engine and do not smoke or allow open flames or sparks near the vehicle when refueling.

c Do not attempt to top off the fuel tank after the fuel pump nozzle shuts off automatically. Continued refuel- ing may cause fuel overflow, result- ing in fuel spray and possibly fire.


c Use only an original equipment type fuel filler cap as a replacement. It has a built-in safety valve needed for proper operation of the fuel system and emission control system. An in- correct cap can result in a serious malfunction and possible injury.

c Never pour fuel into the throttle body


to attempt to start your vehicle.


CAUTION


c If fuel is spilled on the vehicle body, flush it away with water to avoid paint damage.


c Tighten until the fuel filler cap clicks. Failure to tighten the fuel filler cap properly may cause the mal- function indicator lamp (MIL) to illu- minate. If the lamp illuminates because the fuel filler cap is loose or missing, tighten or install the cap and continue to drive the vehicle. The lamp should turn off after a few driving trips. If the lamp does not turn off after a few driving trips, have the vehicle inspected by an authorized NISSAN dealer.

SERVICING AIR CONDITIONER


The air conditioner system in your NISSAN is charged with a refrigerant designed with the environment in mind. This refrigerant does not harm the earth’s ozone layer. Special charging equipment and lubricant is required when servicing your NISSAN air conditioner. Using improper refrigerants or lubricants causes severe damage to your air conditioner system. See 9Air conditioner system refrigerant and lubrication recom- mendations9
in the 9Technical and con- sumer information9 section of this manual. An authorized NISSAN dealer will be able to service your environmentally 9friendly9 air conditioner system.


WARNING


The air conditioner system contains refrigerant under high pressure. To avoid personal injury, any air condi- tioner service should be done only by an experienced technician with proper equipment.
