Triple meter
1. Engine oil temperature gauge
2. Voltmeter
3. ClockTRIPLE METER
Engine oil temperature gaugeIf the engine oil temperature gauge
*1
indicates more than 280 8F (140 8C) while
driving, reduce the engine speed (RPM)
and drive at a slow speed.
When the engine oil temperature is high,
the engine protection mode, which helps
reduce the chance of engine damage,
could activate and automatically decrease
engine power. Driving while the engine oil temperature is high may result in engine
damage.
VoltmeterWhen the ignition switch is turned to the ON
position, the volt meter
*2
indicates the battery
voltage. When the engine is running, it indicates
the generator voltage.
While cranking the engine, the volts drop below
the normal range. If the needle is not in the
normal range (11 to 15 volts) while the engine is
running, it may indicate that the charging system
is not functioning properly. Have the system
checked by a NISSAN dealer.
ClockIf necessary, adjust the clock
*3
on the setting
screen of the vehicle information display. (See
“CLOCK” later in this section.)
If the power supply is disconnected, the clock
will not indicate the correct time. Readjust the
time.
