8.4.1. To help prevent damage

image

  • Use UNLEADED PETROL ONLY, specifically the recommended type. For details, see

    Recommended fluids/lubricants and capacities
    .

  • Do not use leaded petrol. Leaded petrol will seriously damage three-way catalyst.

    Deposits from leaded petrol will seriously reduce the three-way catalyst's ability to help reduce exhaust pollutants.

  • Keep your engine tuned up. Malfunctions in the ignition, fuel injection, or electrical systems can cause over-rich fuel flow into the converter, causing it to overheat.

  • 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 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 or qualified workshop.

  • Do not push or tow your vehicle to start the engine.
