Turn signal/hazard indicator
lights
The appropriate light flashes when the turn
signal lever is activated.
Both lights flash when the hazard switch is
turned on.
High beam indicator light
(Blue)
This light comes on when the headlight high
beam is on and goes out when the low
beam is selected.
Cruise indicator light
The light comes on while the vehicle speed is
controlled by the cruise control system. If the
CRUISE indicator blinks while the engine is
running, it may indicate the cruise control
system is not functioning properly. Have the
system checked by an authorized NISSAN
dealer.
Malfunction indicator lamp
(MIL)
If this indicator lamp comes on steady or
blinks while the engine is running, it mayindicate a potential emission control mal-
function.
The malfunction indicator lamp may also
come on steady if the fuel filler cap is loose
or missing, or if the vehicle runs out of fuel.
Check to make sure the fuel filler cap is
installed and closed tightly, and that the
vehicle has at least three gallons of fuel in
the fuel tank.
After a few driving trips, the
lamp
should turn off if no other potential emission
control system malfunction exists.
Operation
The malfunction indicator lamp will come on
in one of two ways:
cMalfunction indicator lamp on steady - An
emission control system malfunction has
been detected. Check the fuel filler cap. If
the fuel filler cap is loose or missing,
tighten or install the cap and continue to
drive the vehicle. The
lamp should
turn off after a few driving trips. If the
lamp does not turn off after a few
driving trips, have the vehicle inspected
by an authorized NISSAN dealer. You do
not need to have your vehicle towed to
the dealer.cMalfunction indicator lamp blinking - An
engine misfire has been detected which
may damage the emission control sys-
tem. To reduce or avoid emission control
system damage:
a) do not drive at speeds above 45 MPH
(72 km/h).
b)
avoid hard acceleration or deceleration.c) avoid steep uphill grades.
d) if possible, reduce the amount of
cargo being hauled or towed.
The malfunction indicator lamp may stop
blinking and come on steady. Have the
vehicle inspected by an authorized NISSAN
dealer. You do not need to have your ve-
hicle towed to the dealer.
CAUTION
Continued vehicle operation without
having the emission control system
checked and repaired as necessary
could lead to poor driveability, reduced
fuel economy, and possible damage to
the emission control system.

vated. Refer to the ``Autolamp Switch'' in-
structions later in this section.
Turn the headlight control switch to OFF
when you leave the vehicle.
Brake pad wear warning
The disc brake pads have audible wear
warnings. When a brake pad requires re-
placement, it makes a high pitched scraping
sound when the vehicle is in motion whether
or not the brake pedal is depressed. Have
the brakes checked as soon as possible if
the warning sound is heard.The theft warning system provides audio
and visual alarm signals if parts of the
vehicle are disturbed.
Security indicator light
This light will illuminate for the theft warning
system.
This light blinks whenever the ignition
switch is in the LOCK, OFF, or ACC posi-
tion. This function indicates the security
systems equipped on the vehicle are opera-
tional.

Passing signal
Pulling the lever toward you turns the head-
light high beam on. Release it and the
headlight high beam goes off.
Daytime running light system
(Canada only)
The headlights automatically illuminate at a
reduced intensity when the engine is started
with the parking brake released. The day-
time running lights operate with the head-
light switch in the OFF position or in the
position. Turn the headlight switch to
theposition for full illumination when
driving at night.
If the parking brake is applied before the
engine is started, the daytime running lights
do not illuminate. The daytime running lights
illuminate once the parking brake is released.
The daytime running lights will remain on until
the ignition switch is turned OFF.
WARNING
When the daytime running light system
is active, tail lights on your vehicle will
not be on. It is necessary at dusk to
turn on your headlights. Failure to do
so could cause an accident injuring
yourself and others.
The autolamp system allows the headlights
to be set so they turn on and off automati-
cally. The autolamp system can turn on the
headlights automatically when it is dark,
turn off the headlights when it is light, and
keep the headlights on for up to three
minutes after you turn the key to OFF.
To set the autolamp system:
1. Make sure the headlight switch is in the
AUTO1 or AUTO2 position.
2. Turn the ignition key to ON.
3. The autolamp system automatically turns
the headlights on and off.

Shut-off delay
The length of time the headlights stay on
after the ignition is turned to OFF depends
on whether the switch is in the AUTO1 or
AUTO2 position. If the switch is in the
AUTO1 position, then the headlights stay on
for less than 1 minute after the ignition is
turned OFF. If the switch is in the AUTO2
position, the headlights stay on approxi-
mately 3 minutes after the ignition is turned
OFF.
To turn the autolamp system off, turn the
switch to the OFF,
,orposition.
Be sure you do not put anything on top
of the photo sensor located in the top left
side of the instrument panel. The photo
sensor controls the autolamp; if it is
covered, the photo sensor reacts as if it
is dark out and the headlights will illumi-
nate.
Turn signal
Move the lever up or down to signal the
turning direction. When the turn is com-
pleted, the turn signal cancels automati-
cally.
Lane change signal
To indicate a lane change, move the lever
up or down to the point where the light
begins to flash, but the lever does not latch.

5. Press the desired button until the red
indicator light flashes slowly. Do not re-
lease the button. Continue holding and
press the hand-held transmitter button
through step 6.
6. Hold down both buttons until the red
indicator light on the Integrated
HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver
flashes rapidly (This may take 1 to 90
seconds). Then release both buttons.
The rapid flashing means that the trans-
ceiver has been successfully pro-
grammed to match your hand-held trans-
mitter. You can now use the Integrated
HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver in-
stead of your hand-held transmitter.
PROGRAMMING HomelinkTFOR
CANADIAN CUSTOMERS
Prior to 1992, D.O.C. regulations required
many hand-held transmitters to stop trans-
mitting after one or two seconds, even
though you continue to hold down the but-
ton. If you think you have one of these
hand-held transmitters, you should press
and re-press the transmitter button every 2
seconds without ever releasing the Inte-
grated HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver
button. The indicator light on the IntegratedHomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver should
blink rapidly indicating a successful pro-
gramming procedure. If it returns to the slow
blink of program mode, continue to periodi-
cally reactivate your hand-held transmitter
until a successful programming procedure
is indicated by the rapidly flashing indicator
light.
OPERATING THE INTEGRATED
HomeLinkTUNIVERSAL TRANS-
CEIVER
To operate, simply press the appropriate
button on the Integrated HomeLinkTUniver-
sal Transceiver. The red indicator light illu-
minates while the signal is being transmit-
ted. The effective transmission range of the
Integrated HomeLinkTUniversal Trans-
ceiver may differ from your hand-held trans-
mitter.
PROGRAMMING PROBLEM
DIAGNOSIS
Be sure to keep your original hand-held
transmitter for possible reprogramming if
necessary.
cMake sure batteries in the hand-held
transmitter are fully charged.cHold your hand-held transmitter against
the bottom surface of the Integrated
HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver so
that you can still see the red indicator
light.
cHold buttons for duration of the program-
ming without interruption.
cRotate your hand-held transmitter end-
over-end and program again. For best
results, place the end opposite the bat-
tery compartment against the Integrated
HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver when
programming.
