Fuel recommendation

Use unleaded regular gasoline with an octane rating of at least 87 AKI (Anti-Knock Index) number (Research octane number 91).

- Using a fuel other than that specified

- Using a fuel other than that specified could adversely affect the emission control system, and may also affect warranty coverage.

- Under no circumstances should a leaded gasoline be used, because this will damage the three-way catalyst.

- Do not use E-85 fuel in your vehicle.

Your vehicle is not designed to run on E-85 fuel. Using E-85 fuel can damage the fuel system components and is not covered by the NISSAN new vehicle limited warranty.
