WARNING

Make sure the ignition switch is in the OFF or LOCK position before adjusting or replacing the drive belt. Otherwise, the engine may start unexpectedly.

  1. Visually inspect the belt to make sure it is not worn, cut, frayed, or loose. If the belts are in poor condition or loose, have them replaced or adjusted at a NISSAN dealer.
  2. Have the belt condition and tension of your vehicle checked at the intervals specified in the "NISSAN Maintenance and Repair Guide".
