completely secured, passengers may be in-
jured in an accident or sudden stop.
•Closely supervise children when they are
around the vehicle to prevent them from play-
ing and being locked in the luggage compart-
ment where they could be seriously injured.
Keep the vehicle locked with the rear seat-
back securely latched when not in use, and
prevent children from having access to the
vehicle’s keys.
•Head restraints should be adjusted properly
as they may provide significant protection
against whiplash injury. Always adjust them
properly when returning the seatbacks to the
upright position.
NOTE
The lowest head restraint position is a stowage
position to assist seat folding and rear vision.
The lowest position intended for use is with the
head restraint raised to its first notch position. It
should be further adjusted to suit the passenger
if necessary.

WARNING LIGHTS
Air bag warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON or START
position, the air bag light will illuminate for approxi-
mately 7 seconds and then turn off. This means the
system is operational.
If any of the following conditions occur, the air bag
systems and pre-tensioner seat belt need servicingand your vehicle must be taken to the nearest
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
•The air bag warning light remains on after ap-
proximately 7 seconds.
•The air bag warning light flashes intermittently.
•The air bag warning light does not come on at
all.

may not function properly.
For additional details on the air bag system, see
WARNING/INDICATOR LIGHTS AND AUDIBLE REMINDERS
Instruments and controls2-7

If the warning light remains illuminated after the en-
gine has been started, there will be no power steer-
ing assistance: the vehicle may be driven using the
mechanical steering system although it is not rec-
ommended as the effort to turn the steering wheel
will be significantly increased compared to normal
operation.
WARNING
•If the EPAS warning light illuminates while
driving, stop as soon as safely possible.
•In certain circumstances, factors external to
the EPAS system may contribute to the illumi-
nation of the warning light. If the warning light
illuminates, stop the vehicle as soon as safely
possible if driving, turn the ignition switch to
the “OFF” position for approximately 20 sec-
onds, then turn the ignition switch to the ON
position again. If the light remains illuminated,
we recommend you to contact a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop.
See “Power steering system” in the “5. Starting and
driving” section for further details on the EPAS sys-
tem.

Intelligent Key indicator light and
Intelligent Key warning light
(Intelligent Key system only)
Intelligent Key indicator light (green):
The Intelligent Key indicator light comes on when
the ignition knob is pushed in the LOCK position
while the brake pedal is depressed and the Intelli-
gent Key is in the vehicle. The Intelligent Key indica-
tor light goes out when the ignition switch is turned
to the Acc position.
NOTE
•The Intelligent Key indicator light may start
flashing when the ignition knob is turned from
the “OFF” position to the ON position if the
control unit detects a low battery voltage.
•The Intelligent Key indicator light comes on
as confirmation flash for anti-hijack mode set-
ting procedure. See “Integrated keyfob/re-
mote control system” in the “3. Pre-driving
checks and adjustments” section.
Intelligent Key warning light (red):
When the ignition knob is turned to the ON position,
the Intelligent Key warning light illuminates for a few
seconds and then goes off. This means the system
is operational.
NOTE
•If the Intelligent Key is taken outside of the
vehicle ID recognition zone through an
opened door (driver’s side door, passenger’s
side door, back door) while the ignition knobis in the Acc or ON position, the Intelligent
Key warning light starts flashing and the
buzzer sounds, warning the driver of the situ-
ation. The Intelligent Key warning light will

ment.
•The Intelligent Key warning light comes on as
confirmation flash for convenience mode set-
ting procedure. See “Integrated keyfob/re-
mote control system” in the “3. Pre-driving

WARNING
If the Intelligent Key warning light comes on
steady, it may indicate a system malfunction, we
recommend you to contact a NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop for repair.
See “Ignition knob (where fitted)” in the “5. Starting
and driving” section for further details.
Anti-lock Braking System
warning light
After turning the ignition key to the ON position, the
light will illuminate. The Anti-lock Braking System
warning light will turn off after approximately 1 sec-
ond if the system is operational.
If the light comes on while the engine is running, it
may indicate something is wrong with the anti-lock
portion of the braking system. Have the system
checked by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.Anti-lock Braking System:
The Anti-lock Braking System controls the wheels
so that they will not lock when braking abruptly or
when braking on a slippery road. This will prevent
difficult steering operation and swerving due to
locked wheels.
If an abnormality occurs in the system, the anti-lock
function will cease but the ordinary brakes will con-
tinue to operate normally.
CAUTION
If the light comes on while you are driving, con-
tact a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop for
repair.
INDICATOR LIGHTS
Electronic Stability Programme
(ESP) OFF indicator light
(where fitted)
The light comes on when the Electronic Stability
Programme (ESP) OFF switch is pushed to the OFF
position. This indicates the Electronic Stability Pro-
gramme is not operating.
Push the Electronic Stability Programme OFF
switch again or restart the engine and the system
will operate normally. See “Electronic Stability Pro-
gramme (ESP) system (where fitted)” in the
“5. Starting and driving” section.
Instruments and controls2-11

Diesel particulate filter warning
light (where fitted)
When the warning light illuminates, it indicates that
particulate matter has accumulated to the specified
amount of the limit in the diesel particulate filter.
Drive the vehicle at more than approximately 60 km/h
(37.5 MPH) as soon as safely possible until the
warning light turns off. Always conform to local regu-
lations. Particulate matter collected in the filter can-
not be burned under low speed driving conditions.

This light comes on when the ignition switch is in the
ON position, and goes out when the glow plugs
have been pre-heated. When the engine is cold, the
glow plug warm-up time will be longer.
CAUTION

lem in the glow system. Have the system checked
at a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.

(automatic transmission)
The overdrive off indicator light illuminates when the
overdrive is turned OFF. See “Driving with auto-
matic transmission” in the “5. Starting and driving”
section.If the vehicle is driven under extreme conditions,
such as excessive wheel spinning and subse-
quent hard braking, the Fail-safe system may be
activated. This will occur even if all electrical cir-
cuits are functioning properly. In this case, turn
the ignition key to the “OFF” position and wait for
3 seconds. Then turn the key back to the ON
position. The vehicle should return to its normal
operating condition. If it does not return to its
normal operating condition have a NISSAN dealer
or qualified workshop check the transmission
and repair if necessary.
