Engine oil pressure warning
light
This light warns of low engine oil pressure. If the
light flickers or comes on during normal driving,
pull off the road in a safe area, stop the engine
immediatelyand call a NISSAN dealer or other
authorized repair shop.
The engine oil pressure warning light is not
designed to indicate a low oil level.Use the
dipstick to check the oil level. See “Engine oil” in
the “Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section of
this manual.
CAUTION
Running the engine with the engine oil
pressure warning light on could cause se-
rious damage to the engine almost imme-
diately. Such damage is not covered by
warranty. Turn off the engine as soon as it
is safe to do so.
Low fuel warning light
This light comes on when the fuel level in the fuel
tank is getting low. The low fuel warning chime
will also sound under certain conditions. See
“Low fuel warning chime” later in this section.Refuel as soon as it is convenient, 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 pres-
sure, the warning light will illuminate. If you select
the tire pressure information in the display (if so
equipped) , the LOW PRESSURE warning mes-
sage will be displayed. The tire pressure for each
tire will also be displayed.
When the low tire pressure warning light illumi-
nates, you should stop and adjust the tire pres-
sure to the recommended COLD tire pressure
shown on the Tire and Loading Information label.The low tire pressure warning light does not
automatically turn off when the tire pressure is
adjusted. After the tire is inflated to the recom-
mended 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 pressure gauge to check the tire
pressure.
For additional information, see “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.
For additional information, see “Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS)” in the “Starting and
driving” section.
WARNING
cIf 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.

HOW TO USE THE TRIP BUTTON
When the TRIP button is pressed, the following
modes will display on the screen.
Dist. to Empty!Average Speed!Fuel
Economy!Tire Pressure!Audio or OFF!
Dist. to Empty
Distance to empty (MI or km)
The Distance To Empty (DTE) mode provides you
with an estimation of the distance that can be
driven before refueling. The DTE is constantly
calculated based on the amount of fuel in the fuel
tank and the actual fuel consumption. The display
is updated every 30 seconds. When the fuel level
is low, the DTE display will change to — .
NOTE:
cIf the amount of fuel added while the ignition
switch is OFF is small, the display just before
the ignition switch is turned OFF may con-
tinue to be displayed.cWhen driving uphill or rounding curves, the

Average speed (MPH or km/h)
The Average Speed mode shows the average
speed since the last reset. To calculate the aver-
age speed, driving distance is divided by driving
time.
For approximately the first 30 seconds after a
reset or reconnecting the battery cables, the
display will show —.
Resetting average speed
The average speed calculation can be reset to 0.
Press the TRIP button for more than approxi-
mately 2 seconds.
Fuel economy (MPG or L/100 km)
The Fuel Economy mode shows the average fuel
economy since the last reset.
For approximately the first 30 seconds and 1/3
mile (500 m) after a reset or connecting the
battery cables, the display will show —.
Resetting fuel economy
The fuel economy calculation can be reset to 0.
Press the TRIP button for more than approxi-
mately 2 seconds.
Tire pressure information
Pressure indication in **psi on the screen indi-
cates that the pressure is being measured. After
a few driving trips, the pressure for each tire will
be displayed randomly.
The order of the tire pressure figures displayed
on the screen does not correspond with the
actual order of the tire position.
Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the
heat caused by the vehicle’s operation and the
outside temperature.
