IMPORTANT SAFETY NOTICE

The proper performance of service is essential for both the safety of the mechanic and the efficient functioning
of the vehicle.
The service methods in this Service Manual are described in such a manner that the service may be performed
safely and accurately.
Service varies with the procedures used, the skills of the mechanic and the tools and parts available.
Accordingly, anyone using service procedures, tools or parts which are not specifically recommended by
NISSAN must first be completely satisfied that neither personal safety nor the vehicle's safety will be jeopardized by the service method selected.
