FUEL GAUGEThe gauge indicates the APPROXIMATE fuel
level in the tank.
The gauge may move slightly during braking,
turning, acceleration, or going up or down hill.
The gauge needle is designed to remain in
approximately the same position, even when
the ignition key is turned OFF.
Refill the fuel tank before the gauge regis-
ters Empty.
The indicator light comes on when the fuel
tank is getting low. Refuel as soon as it isconvenient, preferably before the gauge
reaches E. There will be a small reserve of
fuel in the tank when the fuel gauge needle
reaches E.
If the vehicle is driven with the fuel level
very low, the malfunction indicator light
may come on. Refuel as soon as pos-
sible. After re-fueling, the light should
go off. If the light remains on, have the
vehicle inspected by an authorized
NISSAN dealer.

function indicator light (MIL)º later in
