MINmark on the brake fluid reser-
voir, do not drive until the brake sys-
tem has been checked at a NISSAN

warning system checked by a NISSAN
dealer. Avoid high speed driving and abrupt
braking.
If both the brake warning light and the anti-
lock brake warning light come on simulta-
neously, it may indicate the anti-lock brake
system is not functioning properly. See “Anti-
lock brake warning light” earlier in this sec-
tion.

If the light comes on while the engine is running,
it may indicate that the charging system is not
functioning properly. Turn the engine off and
check the alternator belt. If the belt is loose,
broken, missing or if the light remains on, see
your NISSAN dealer immediately.

loose, broken or missing.

signed to indicate a low oil level. Use the
dipstick to check the oil level.See “Engine

sure warning light on could cause seri-ous damage to the engine almost imme-
diately. Turn off the engine as soon as it
is safe to do so.
