VEHICLE BATTERY
WARNING
Do not operate the vehicle if the fluid in the bat-
tery is low. Low battery fluid can cause a higher
load on the battery which can generate heat, re-
duce battery life, and in some cases lead to an
explosion.
Keep the battery surface clean and dry. Any cor-
rosion should be washed off with a solution of
baking soda and water.
Make certain the terminal connections are clean
and securely tightened.
If the vehicle is not used for 30 days or longer,
disconnect the “–” negative battery terminal
cable to prevent discharge.
If battery replacement or check is required, con-
tact a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
