EXHAUST GAS (carbon monoxide)
T32A130827-A70640B2-660A-40EC-AACA-9AE673CECA70
WARNING:
. Do not breathe exhaust gas; it contains
colorless and odorless carbon monoxide.
Carbon monoxide is dangerous. It can
cause unconsciousness or death.
. If you suspect that exhaust fumes are
entering the vehicle, drive with all win-
dows fully open, and have the vehicle
inspected immediately.
. Do not run the engine in closed spaces
such as a garage.
. Do not park the vehicle with the engine
running for an extended period of time.
. Keep the back door closed while driving,
otherwise exhaust gas could be drawn
into the passenger compartment. If you
must drive with the back door open,
follow these precautions:
Open all the windows.
Turn the air recirculation mode off
and set the fan speed control to the
highest level to circulate the air.
. If electrical wiring or other cable connec-
tions must pass to a trailer through the
seal of the back door or the body, follow
the manufacturer’s recommendation to
prevent carbon monoxide entry into the
vehicle.
. If a special body or other equipment is
added for recreational or other usage,
follow the manufacturer’s recommenda-
tion to prevent carbon monoxide entry
into the vehicle. (Some recreational vehi-
cle appliances such as stoves, refrigera-
tors, heaters, etc. may also generate
carbon monoxide.)
. The exhaust system and body should be
inspected by a qualified mechanic when-
ever:
—Your vehicle is raised while being
serviced.
You suspect that exhaust fumes are
entering into the passenger compart-
ment.
You notice a change in the sound of
the exhaust system.
You have had an accident involving
damage to the exhaust system, un-
derbody, or rear of the vehicle.
THREE-WAY CATALYST (if equipped)
T32A130827-E3FB65A9-B2E7-4DF0-9305-1A61B5242E01
WARNING:
. The exhaust gas and the exhaust system
are very hot. Keep people, animals and
flammable materials away from the ex-
haust system components.
. Do not stop or park the vehicle over
flammable materials such as dry grass,
wastepaper or rags. They may ignite and
cause a fire.
The three-way catalyst is an emission control
device installed in the exhaust system. Exhaust
gas in the three-way catalyst is burned at high
temperatures to help reduce pollutants.
CAUTION:
. Do not use leaded gasoline. (See “Recom-
mended fluids/lubricants and capacities”
(P.9-2).) Deposits from leaded gasoline
seriously reduce the ability of the three-
way catalyst to help reduce exhaust
pollutants and/or damage the three-
way catalyst.
. Keep your engine tuned up. Malfunctions
in the ignition, fuel injection, or electrical
systems may cause overrich fuel to flow
into the three-way catalyst, causing it to
overheat. Do not keep driving if the
engine misfires, or if noticeable loss of
performance or other unusual operating
conditions are detected. Have the vehicle
inspected promptly by a NISSAN dealer.
. Avoid driving with an extremely low fuel
level. Running out of fuel could cause the
engine to misfire, damaging the three-
way catalyst.
. Do not race the engine while warming it
up.
. Do not push or tow your vehicle to start
the engine.
AdBlue® SELECTIVE CATALYTIC RE-
DUCTION (SCR) SYSTEM (if equipped for
diesel engine model)
GUID-88696224-C7D8-4127-AB23-BF3D0A1A8925
AdBlue® or Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF), is a non-
toxic solution of 32.5% urea in de-ionized water.
This fluid is sprayed into the exhaust system of
diesel vehicles to cause a chemical reaction
that breaks down potentially dangerous NOx
(nitrogen oxides) emissions into harmless ni-
trogen and water. This system is called Selec-
tive Catalytic Reduction (SCR). AdBlue® fluid is
not a fuel additive and is never mixed with
diesel fuel. It is always stored in a separate tank
on the vehicle.
AdBlue® will begin to freeze below -11°C (12°F). If
you often drive in areas where the temperature
is below -11°C (12°F), the AdBlue® tank should
always be filled with AdBlue® at the beginning
of the cold season to ensure enough defrosting
capacity with heating.
Starting and driving 5-5
