Get your vehicle completely off the
road and away from traffic. |
|
Never stand near the edge of the
highway while checking the vehicle. |
|
Turn on your hazard warning
flashers and raise the hood to warn traffic and signal
that you need assistance. |
|
If you decide to wait for
professional assistance, stay inside your car with the
windows up and the doors locked.
|
|
Park on a level and solid surface.
Apply parking brake and shift manual transmission into
"Reverse" or automatic transmission into "Park".
|
|
If you decide to change your tire
yourself, follow your vehicles' specific jacking
instructions listed in your owner's manual.
|
|
Never change tires when vehicle is
on a slope, ice or slippery area. Also never change
tires if oncoming traffic is close to your
vehicle. |
|
Observe the mileage limitations on
the temporary spare, and return jack and other tools to
their proper and secure locations when finished.
| | |
|
On extremely hot days, be sure to keep an eye on the
temperature gauge. If you're running hot, make sure to shut
off the air conditioner and roll down the windows. If this
doesn't lower the temperature, turn on the heater to get
coolant circulating through more of the engine.
|
|
If the temperature rises beyond the normal range, stop
the vehicle as soon as possible. Continued operation of an
overheated engine will cause serious damage, so pull over to a
safe place and raise the hood. Be extremely careful of
radiator and hoses which may be spraying steam and hot
coolant. Never remove the radiator cap when the engine is hot.
|
|
If vehicle overheated because of a long hill or from
sitting in traffic on a hot day, run the engine at a fast idle
(approximately 1,500 rpms) until temperature returns to
normal. |
|
If there's coolant leak, broken belt or other
malfunction, shut off the engine. After the engine cools,
check coolant reservoir while engine is running and bring the
vehicle to a Nissan dealer.
