● Pressing the brake pedal with the en- gine stopped and/or a low brake fluid level may increase your stopping dis- tance and braking will require greater pedal effort as well as pedal travel.


● If the brake fluid level


is below the MINIMUM or MIN mark on the brake fluid reservoir, do not drive until the brake system has been checked at a NISSAN dealer.


Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning indicator


When the parking brake is released and the brake fluid level is sufficient, if both the brake warning light and the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning light illuminate, it may indicate the ABS is not functioning properly. Have the brake system checked, and if necessary, repaired by a NISSAN dealer promptly. Avoid high-speed driv-


ing and abrupt braking. (See “Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning light” in this section.)


Charge warning light


If this light comes on while the engine is running, it may indicate the charging system is not func- tioning properly. Turn the engine off and check the generator belt. If the belt is loose, broken, missing, or if the light remains on, see a NISSAN dealer immediately.


CAUTION


● Do not ground electrical accessories directly to the battery terminal. Doing so will bypass the variable control sys- tem and the vehicle battery may not charge completely. Refer to “Variable voltage control system” in the “Mainte- nance and do-it-yourself” section later in this manual.


● Do not continue driving if the generator


belt is loose, broken or missing. Engine oil pressure low/ Engine coolant temperature high warning light


This light warns of low engine oil pressure or high engine coolant temperature.


If the light flickers or comes on during normal driving, pull off the road in a safe area, stop the engine and allow it to cool. If the light remains on after checking the oil and coolant, stop the en- gine immediately and call a NISSAN dealer or other authorized repair shop. This light is not designed to indicate a low oil or low coolant level. Check the oil level with the dipstick and check the coolant level on the reservoir. See “Engine oil” and “Checking engine coolant level” in the “Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section of this manual. Also see “If your vehicle overheats” in the “In case of emer- gency” section of this manual.


CAUTION


● Running the engine with the engine oil pressure warning light on could cause serious damage to the engine almost immediately. Such damage is not cov- ered by warranty. Turn off the engine as soon as it is safe to do so.


Instruments and controls 2-15


● If the gauge indicates engine coolant temperature over the normal range, stop the vehicle as soon as safely pos- sible. If the engine is overheated, con- tinued operation of the vehicle may se- riously damage the engine. See “If your vehicle overheats” in the “In case of emergency” section for immediate ac- tion required.


4WD warning light ( model)


The 4WD warning light comes on when the key switch is turned to ON. It turns off soon after the engine is started.


If the engine or vehicle is not functioning properly, the warning light will either remain illuminated or blink. See “4WD warning light” in the “Starting and driving” section.


CAUTION


● If the warning light comes on or blinks during operation, have your vehicle checked by a NISSAN dealer as soon as possible.

This light comes on when the fuel level in the fuel tank is getting low. Refuel as soon as it is conve- nient, preferably before the fuel gauge reaches E (Empty). There will be a small reserve of fuel in the tank when the fuel gauge needle reaches E (Empty).


Low tire pressure warning light


Your vehicle is equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) that monitors the tire pressure of all tires except the spare.


The low tire pressure warning light warns of low tire pressure or indicates that the TPMS is not functioning properly.


After the ignition switch is placed in the ON position, this light illuminates for about 1 second and turns off. Low tire pressure warning:


If the vehicle is being driven with low tire pressure, the warning light will illuminate. A CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning also appears in the vehicle information display. If you select the tire pressure information in the display (if so equipped), the LOW PRESSURE warning message will be dis- played. The tire pressure for each tire will also be displayed.


When the low tire pressure warning light illuminates, you should stop and adjust the tire pressure of all 4 tires to the recom- mended COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and Loading Information label located in the driver’s door opening. The low tire pressure warning light does not automati- cally turn off when the tire pressure is ad- justed. After the tire is inflated to the rec- ommended pressure, the vehicle must be driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h) to activate the TPMS and turn off the low


tire pressure warning light. Use a tire pres- sure gauge to check the tire pressure.


The CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning is active as long as the low tire pressure warning light remains illuminated.


For additional information, see “Vehicle informa- tion display” in the “Instruments and controls” section and “Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)” in the “Starting and driving” section and in the “In case of emergency” section. TPMS malfunction:


If the TPMS is not functioning properly, the low tire pressure warning light will flash for approxi- mately 1 minute when the ignition switch is placed in the ON position. The light will remain on after the 1 minute. Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer. The CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning does not appear if the low tire pressure warning light illuminates to indicate a TPMS mal- function.


For additional information, see “Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)” in the “Starting and driving” section and “Tire pressure” in the “Main- tenance and do-it-yourself” section in this manual.


WARNING


● If the light does not illuminate with the ignition switch in the ON position, have the vehicle checked by a NISSAN dealer as soon as possible.


● If the light illuminates while driving, avoid sudden steering maneuvers or abrupt braking, reduce vehicle speed, pull off the road to a safe location and stop the vehicle as soon as possible. Driving with under-inflated tires may permanently damage the tires and in- crease the likelihood of tire failure. Se- rious vehicle damage could occur and may lead to an accident and could re- sult in serious personal injury. Check the tire pressure for all four tires. Adjust the tire pressure to the recommended COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and Loading Information label located in the driver’s door opening to turn the low tire pressure warning light OFF. If the light still comes on while driving after adjusting the tire pressure, a tire may be flat. If you have a flat tire, re- place it with a spare tire as soon as possible.


● When a spare tire is mounted or a wheel is replaced, tire pressure will not be indicated, the TPMS will not function and the low tire pressure warning light will flash for approximately 1 minute. The light will remain on after 1 minute. Contact your NISSAN dealer as soon as possible for tire replacement and/or system resetting.


● Replacing tires with those not originally specified by NISSAN could affect the proper operation of the TPMS.


CAUTION


● The TPMS is not a substitute for the regular tire pressure check. Be sure to check the tire pressure regularly.


● If the vehicle is being driven at speeds of less than 16 MPH (25 km/h), the TPMS may not operate correctly.


● Be sure to install the specified size of


tires to the 4 wheels correctly.

Your vehicle may have two types of security sys- tems: ● Vehicle security system (if so equipped) ● NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System (if so


equipped)


VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM (if so equipped) The vehicle security system provides visual and audible alarm signals if someone opens the doors when the system is armed. It is not, however, a motion detection type system that activates when a vehicle is moved or when a vibration occurs.


The system helps deter vehicle theft but cannot prevent it, nor can it prevent the theft of interior or exterior vehicle components in all situations. Al- ways secure your vehicle even if parking for a brief period. Never leave your keys in the ignition, and always lock the vehicle when unattended. Be aware of your surroundings, and park in secure, well-lit areas whenever possible. Many devices offering additional protection, such as component locks, identification markers, and tracking systems, are available at auto supply stores and specialty shops. Your NISSAN dealer may also offer such equipment. Check with your insurance company to see if you may be eligible for discounts for various theft protection features. How to arm the vehicle security system 1. Close all windows. (The system can be armed even if the windows are open.)


2. Remove the from the ignition switch. 3. Close all doors. Lock all doors. The doors can be locked with the key, power door lock switch (if the door is opened, locked and then closed), or with the keyfob.


Instruments and controls 2-25


Keyfob operation:


● Push the


button on the keyfob. All doors lock. The hazard lights flash twice and the horn beeps once to indicate all doors are locked.


● When the


button is pushed with all doors locked, the hazard lights flash twice and the horn beeps once as a re- minder that the doors are already locked.


The horn may or may not beep. Refer to “Silencing the horn beep feature” (vehicles without navigation system) in the “Pre- driving checks and adjustments” section or “Vehicle electronic systems” (vehicles with navigation system) in the “Display screen, heater, air conditioner, audio and phone sys- tems” section.


4. Confirm that the


indicator light comes on. The light stays on for about 30
seconds. The vehicle security system is now pre-armed. After about 30 seconds the ve- hicle security system automatically shifts light begins into the armed phase. The to flash once every 3 seconds. If, during the 30-second pre-arm time period, the door is unlocked by the key or the keyfob, or the ignition switch is placed to ACC or ON, the system will not arm.


2-26 Instruments and controls


● If the key is turned slowly when locking the door, the system may not arm. Fur- thermore, if the key is turned beyond the vertical position toward the unlock position to remove the key, the system may be disarmed when the key is re- moved. If the indicator light fails to glow for a period of time, unlock the door once and lock it again.


● Even when the driver and/or passengers are in the vehicle, the system will arm with all doors closed and locked with the ignition switch in the OFF position.


● The lockable bedside storage com- partment (if so equipped) is not pro- tected by the vehicle security system.


Vehicle security system activation The vehicle security system will give the following alarm: ● The headlights blink and the horn sounds


intermittently.


● The alarm automatically turns off after a pe- riod of time. However, the alarm reactivates if the vehicle is tampered with again. The alarm can be shut off by unlocking the driver’s door button with the key or by pressing the on the keyfob.


The alarm is activated by: ● opening a door without using the key or keyfob (even if the door is unlocked by using the inside lock knob or the power door lock switch).


How to stop an activated alarm The alarm stops only by unlocking the driver’s button door with the key or by pressing the on the keyfob. NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYSTEM (if so equipped) The NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System will not allow the engine to start without the use of a registered key.


If the engine fails to start using a registered key (for example, when interference is caused by another registered key, an automated toll road device or automatic payment device on the key ring), restart the engine using the following pro- cedures:


1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON position


for approximately 5 seconds.


2. Turn the ignition switch to the OFF or LOCK position, and wait approximately 10 sec- onds.


3. Repeat steps 1 and 2. 4. Restart the engine while holding the device (which may have caused the interference) separate from the registered key.


If the no start condition re-occurs, NISSAN rec- ommends placing the registered key on a sepa- rate key ring to avoid interference from other devices. Statement related to Section 15 of FCC Rules for NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer Sys- tem (CONT ASSY — IMMOBILIZER, ANT ASSY — IMMOBILIZER) This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules and RSS-210 of Industry Canada. Operation is subject to the follow- ing two conditions; (1) This device may not cause harmful in- terference, and (2) this device must accept any interference received, including inter- ference that may cause undesired opera- tion of the device.

The vehicle should be driven with the Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) system on for most driv- ing conditions. If the vehicle is stuck in mud or snow, the VDC system reduces the engine output to reduce wheel spin. The engine speed will be reduced even if the accelerator is depressed to the floor. If maximum engine power is needed to free a stuck vehicle, turn the VDC system off. To turn off the VDC system, push the VDC OFF switch. The Push the VDC OFF switch again or restart the engine to turn on the system. See “Vehicle Dy- namic Control (VDC) system” in the “Starting and driving” section. 2-36 Instruments and controls


indicator will come on.


LIC0729
The Electronic Locking Rear Differential (E-Lock) system can help provide added traction if the vehicle is stuck or becoming stuck. To activate the E-Lock system: ● the 4WD switch must be in the 4LO position


(4-wheel drive vehicles),


● the vehicle must be stopped or moving at 4


MPH (7 km/h) or less, and


● the E-Lock system switch must be turned


ON.


When the E-Lock switch is turned ON, the indi- cator light will flash until the system engages. However, if all operation conditions listed above are not met or the system becomes disengaged, the indicator light will continue to flash.


The Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) system is disabled and the ABS light illuminates when the E-Lock system is ON. Also, the Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) system is disabled and the VDC light illuminates when the E-Lock system is ON.


See “Electronic locking rear differential (E-Lock) system” in the “Starting and Driving” section for further explanation and system limitations.


WARNING


● Never leave the E-Lock system ON when driving on paved or hard-surfaced roads. Turning the vehicle may result in the rear wheels slipping and result in an accident and personal injury. After us- ing the E-Lock system to free the ve- hicle, turn the system OFF.


● Use the E-Lock system only when free- ing a stuck vehicle. Try the 4LO position before using the E-Lock system. Never use the E-Lock system on a slippery road surface such as snow or ice sur- face. Using the E-Lock system when driving in these road conditions may cause unexpected movement of the ve- hicle during engine braking, accelerat- ing or turning, which may result in an accident and serious personal injury.


CAUTION


● After using the E-Lock system, turn the switch OFF to prevent possible damage to driveline components from extended use.


● Do not drive over 12 MPH (20 km/h) when the system is engaged. Doing so could result in possible damage to the driveline.


● Do not turn on the E-lock system while the tires are spinning. Doing so could damage drivetrain components.
