warning light will turn off after approximately 2 sec-
onds if the system is operational.
WARNING/INDICATOR LIGHTS AND AUDIBLE REMINDERS
Instruments and controls2-3

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine If the light comes on while the engine is running, it
may indicate that the anti-lock portion of the braking
system is not functioning properly. Have the system
checked by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
Brake warning light
This light functions for both the handbrake and the
footbrake systems.
Handbrake indicator:
The light comes on when the handbrake is applied.
Low brake fluid warning:
The light warns of a low brake fluid level. If the light
comes on while the engine is running with the hand-
brake not applied, stop the vehicle and perform the
following procedure:
1. Check the brake fluid level. Add brake fluid asnecessary. See “Brake and clutch fluid” in the
“8. Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section.
WARNING
If the level is below the MIN (minimum) mark
on the brake fluid reservoir, do not drive until
the brake system has been checked at a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
2. If the brake fluid level is correct: Have the warning system checked by a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop.
WARNING
Driving your vehicle could be dangerous. Have
it towed to the nearest NISSAN dealer or quali-
fied workshop.
Depressing the brake pedal with the engine
stopped could increase your stopping dis-
tance and require greater pedal travel dis-
tance and effort.
Charge warning light
If the light comes on while the engine is running, it
may indicate that the charging system is not func-
tioning properly. Turn the engine off and check the
alternator belt. If the belt is loose, broken, missing
or if the light remains on, see a NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop immediately.
CAUTION
Do not continue driving if the alternator belt is

warning light (where fitted)
WARNING
Be careful not to burn yourself with exhaust
gases.
Do not park the vehicle over flammable mate-
rials such as dry grass, waste paper or rags,
as they may burn easily.
If the vehicle continues to be driven at a low
speed with the DPF warning light illuminated,
the fail-safe will limit engine revolutions and/
or torque. In this case, the engine oil must be
replaced and the process of burning accumu-
lated particulate matter must be carried out
by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
Service regeneration is a maintenance item
and is not covered by the NISSAN warranty.
Use engine oil for DPF equipped models. For
details, see “Capacities and recommended
fuel/lubricants” in the “9. Technical
information” section.
CAUTION
The DPF becomes extremely hot after burning
particulate matter.
M9R engine only:
When the ignition switch is turned to the ON posi-
tion, the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) warning light
illuminates for a few seconds and then goes out.
This indicates that the system is operational.
All diesel engines:
NISSAN GREEN PROGRAM
Some diesel engine models are fitted with a Diesel
Particulate Filter (DPF), which is a device that re-
moves carbon (soot) from the exhaust gas. To oper-
ate effectively, the DPF system must routinely con-
duct a cleaning operation, called regeneration, that

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Do not drive on dry, hard surfaced roads in
the LOCK position.
If the 4WD warning light blinks in the follow-
ing sequence while driving, proceed as in-
structed:
– Blinks rapidly (about twice a second)Pull off the road at a safe place and idle
the engine. The driving mode will change
to 2WD to prevent the 4WD system from
malfunctioning. The vehicle can be driven
again as soon as the warning light turns
off.
– Blinks slowly (about once every 2 seconds) Change the driving mode to 2WD and re-
duce the vehicle speed as soon as safely
possible.
If the warning light is still on after performing the
above operation, have the system checked by a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop as soon as
possible.
Water in fuel filter warning light
(where fitted)
If the warning light remains on or flashes irregularly
while the engine is running, there may be water in
the fuel filter. Should this happen, try to drain the
water from the fuel filter, see “Fuel filter (Diesel en-
gine models)” in the “8. Maintenance and
do-it-yourself” section. CAUTION
Failure to drain the water from the fuel filter can
cause serious damage to the engine. Contact a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop as soon as
possible.
INDICATOR LIGHTS
Automatic transmission check
indicator light (AT models)
This light indicates both the “Automatic transmis-
sion oil temperature warning” and the “Fail-safe op-
eration”.
Automatic transmission oil temperature
warning:
This light comes on when the automatic transmis-
sion oil temperature is too high. If the light comes on
while driving, reduce the vehicle speed as soon as
safely possible until the light turns off.
Fail-safe operation:
When the ignition switch is turned ON, the light
comes on for 2 seconds. If the light blinks, it may
indicate the automatic transmission is not function-
ing properly. Have your NISSAN dealer or qualified
workshop check and repair the transmission.
CAUTION
Continued vehicle operation when the automatic
transmission check warning light is on may dam-
age the automatic transmission.
Continuously Variable
Transmission (CVT) indicator
light (CVT models)
This light comes on briefly when the ignition is turned
to the ON position.
If the CVT light comes on during normal operation,
it may indicate that something is wrong with the
Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT). Have
your system checked by a NISSAN dealer or quali-
fied workshop.
NOTE
A CVT ELECTRONIC CONTROL SYSTEM WARN-
ING display (centre console — where fitted) will
come on when a malfunction may have occurred
to the transmission control system. The selected
Detailed Information key will then recommend
going to a NISSAN dealer for the system to be
checked.
Electronic Stability Program
(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 that the ESP system is not
operating.
This light also comes on briefly when the ignition
switch is turned to the ON position. The light will
turn off after approximately 1 second if the ESP sys-
tem is operational.
Instruments and controls2-7

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine The turbocharger system uses engine oil for lubrica-
tion and cooling of its rotating components. The tur-
bocharger turbine turns at extremely high speeds
and it can reach an extremely high temperature. It is
essential to maintain a flow of clean oil through the
turbocharger system. A sudden interruption to the
oil supply may cause a malfunction in the turbo-
charger.
To ensure prolonged life and performance of the
turbocharger, it is essential to comply with the fol-
lowing maintenance procedure:
CAUTION
Change the engine oil of the turbo-charged
diesel engine as prescribed. See the sepa-
rately provided Warranty Information & Main-
tenance Booklet for additional information.
Use only the recommended engine oil. See
“Capacities and recommended
fuel/lubricants” in the “9. Technical
information” section.
If the engine has been operating at high rpm
for an extended period of time, let it idle for a
few minutes prior to shutdown.
Do not accelerate the engine to high rpm im-
mediately after starting it.
WARNING
Be careful not to burn yourself with exhaust
gases.
Do not park the vehicle over flammable mate-
rials such as dry grass, waste paper or rags,
as they may burn easily.
If the vehicle continues to be driven at a low
speed with the DPF warning light illuminated,
the fail-safe will limit engine revolutions and/
or torque. In this case, the engine oil must be
replaced and the process of burning accumu-
lated particulate matter must be carried out

particulate matter.
NISSAN GREEN PROGRAM
Some diesel engine models are fitted with a Diesel
Particulate Filter (DPF), which is a device that re-
moves carbon (soot) from the exhaust gas. To oper-
ate effectively, the DPF system must routinely con-
duct a cleaning operation, called regeneration, that burns-off the accumulated carbon. This regenera-
tion process is normally automatic and not visible to
the driver.
REGENERATION RESTRICTIONS
Driving conditions such as frequent short journeys
or stop/start driving can result in excessive build up
of carbon in the filter. When this happens the DPF
warning light
will illuminate (and a message
will appear in the vehicle information display, see
“Vehicle information display” later in this section) to
inform you that the vehicle must be driven in a par-
ticular manner to begin regeneration.
When the DPF warning light is illuminated, provided
that legal and safety conditions allow, the vehicle
should be driven at a speed of over 60 km/h (37.5
MPH) until the DPF warning light turns off. This pro-
cess can take up to 30 minutes to complete.
IF REGENERATION FAILS
Failure to react to the DPF warning lightmay
lead to saturation of the DPF system. If this hap-
pens, the Malfunction Indicator (MI)
will also
illuminate to indicate that a Service Regeneration by
a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop is required.
The engine speed may also be limited to 3,000 rpm
to protect the DPF system.
NOTE
Contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop
to perform a forced regeneration.
