Maintenance guidance
Note e-POWER HE12
Engine oil severe-service interval7,500 km / 6 months
For HE12 e-POWER HR12DE vehicles used under Nissan severe-condition criteria, Nissan reduces the engine-oil and oil-filter interval from 15,000 km / 12 months to 7,500 km / 6 months.
Applies only under Nissan severe-condition criteria; normal-use interval remains longer.Manufacturer source ↗Engine oil and oil filter15,000 km / 12 months
Replace the engine oil, and the oil filter when due, at 15,000 km or 12 months under normal use, whichever comes first.
Under Nissan severe-condition use, the interval is 7,500 km or 6 months, whichever comes first. The HE12 e-POWER uses the HR12DE generator engine.Manufacturer source ↗Inverter coolant service referenceSee manufacturer guidance
Service the e-POWER inverter cooling circuit using the production-period-specific quantity and approved coolant/procedure.
Nissan states replacement timing should be checked in the maintenance note; no interval is inferred here.Manufacturer source ↗Gearbox-fluid service referenceSee manufacturer guidance
Use Nissan Genuine Matic Fluid S for the cited HE12 e-POWER gearbox reference.
The FAQ gives specification/quantity, not a replacement interval; consult the maintenance note.Manufacturer source ↗Brake-fluid service referenceSee manufacturer guidance
Use Nissan Genuine No.2500 DOT3 brake fluid as specified.
Replacement timing is not inferred from the fluid table; consult the maintenance note.Manufacturer source ↗Key fob battery replacementSee manufacturer guidance
Use a CR2025 battery for the documented Nissan Intelligent Key / key-fob reference.
Confirm key type before replacement.Manufacturer source ↗Wiper-blade fitment service referenceSee manufacturer guidance
Documented blade lengths are 650 mm driver, 300 mm passenger and 305 mm rear.
Confirm the exact blade attachment before purchase.Manufacturer source ↗Tyre-pressure service referenceSee manufacturer guidance
For the cited e-POWER X / MEDALIST configuration, use 230 kPa front and 210 kPa rear as the manufacturer reference.
The individual tyre-pressure placard remains the final check for the exact grade/tyre package.Manufacturer source ↗Exterior-lighting service referenceSee manufacturer guidance
Use Nissan's published HE12-era lamp table to match replaceable bulbs: PY21W 21 W front turn, WY21W 21 W rear turn, W5W 5 W tail/license, with LED units where specified.
This is a fitment/service reference, not a replacement interval. Confirm production period and headlamp system.Manufacturer source ↗Engine coolant service referenceSee manufacturer guidance
Use the HE12 production-period-specific engine coolant quantity and manufacturer-specified coolant/service procedure.
Nissan states replacement timing should be checked in the maintenance note; no interval is inferred here.Manufacturer source ↗Safety record

Generator-engine blow-by hose recallJP · campaign 5350 · 2023-07-14
Nissan recalled affected Note e-POWER and other vehicles because the protector on the generator-engine blow-by hose was too short, allowing the uncovered hose surface to deteriorate and crack over time.
Official Nissan recall lists DAA-HE12 Note e-POWER chassis HE12-000043 through HE12-422955, produced 2016-08-25 through 2020-10-06. Nissan notes that some vehicles within the listed chassis range may not be affected; dealer/chassis confirmation is required.Official campaign source ↗Market coverage
