Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine NATS security warning/indicator light
(where fitted)
One of the following functions (depending on the
vehicle specifications) indicates that the vehicle is
equipped with NATS:
The NATS security warning light (Type A) is lo-
cated in the meter panel and blinks whenever
the ignition switch is in the LOCK, “OFF” or Acc
position.
The NATS security indicator light (TypejB) is
located on the Driver’s side of the dashboard
and blinks whenever the ignition switch is in the
LOCK, “OFF” or Acc position.
If the NISSAN Anti-Theft System (NATS) is mal-
functioning, this light will remain on while the ignition
switch is in the ON position.
If the light remains on and/or the engine will not
start, see your NISSAN dealer for NATS service
as soon as possible. Please bring all NATS keys
or NATS Intelligent Keys when visiting your
NISSAN dealer for service.
Additional information for RHD models
If the NATS is malfunctioning, this light will turn on
after flashing six times while the ignition switch is in
the ON position.
However, if the NATS security warning light turns
off after the light has remained on for 15 minutes,
there is a 10 second time slot to start the engine
after the ignition is turned off. See your NISSAN
dealer for NATS service as soon as possible.

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine NISSAN GREEN PROGRAM
The Stop/Start System is designed to prevent un-
necessary fuel consumption, exhaust emissions,
and noise during a journey:
When the vehicle comes to rest the engine is
automatically stopped*.
The engine is then automatically restarted before
you are ready to drive away**.
CAUTION
At the end of the journey the engine must be
stopped and ignition turned OFF. Lock the ve-
hicle as normal. Turning the ignition OFF will shut
down all electrical systems. Failure to do this may
result in a flat battery.
NORMAL OPERATION
The Stop/Start System has stopped the engine and
will automatically restart the engine. The Stop/Start
symbol
j1 is shown in the vehicle information dis-
play.
*The Stop/Start System will
automatically stop the engine when all
the following conditions are valid:
– The gearshift lever is in Neutral position.
– The clutch pedal is fully released.
– The vehicle speed is below about 2 km/h (1 MPH).
– The driver’s seat belt is buckled.
– The driver’s door is closed.
NOTE
The following conditions must also be satisfied
before the engine is automatically stopped. If the
engine does not stop this does not indicate a
fault with the system:
– The outside air temperature is above about 5ºC.
– The engine coolant temperature is at normal operating levels.
– The vehicle has driven some distance since engine start.
– The battery voltage and temperature are within normal levels.
– The vehicle bonnet is closed.
– The steering wheel is not being turned.
– The front and/or rear screen defoggers are turned OFF.
**When the Stop/Start System symbol
(1) is displayed the engine starts running
automatically under at least one of the
following conditions:
– The clutch pedal is depressed.
– The brake pedal is repeatedly pressed (to main-tain vehicle braking performance).
– The battery voltage becomes low (due to electri- cal load from other vehicle systems like head-
lights, heaters, etc., or auxiliary devices con-
nected to the 12 volt socket inside the vehicle).
– The front and/or rear screen defogger is turned on.
– The vehicle speed is above about 2 km/h (1 MPH).
NOTE
The following conditions will prevent the Stop/
Start System automatically restarting the engine.
Starting the engine by turning the ignition switch
is then necessary:
– The driver’s seat belt is unbuckled, or driver’s door is open.
– The bonnet is open.
The Stop/Start System is always engaged at the
start of a journey (once the engine has been started).
The engine is automatically stopped and restarted
during the journey if conditions are suitable

STOP/START SYSTEM
(where fitted)
Starting and driving5-21

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine and varies the brake fluid pressure to prevent each
wheel from locking and sliding. By preventing each
wheel from locking, the system helps the driver to
maintain steering control and helps to minimise
swerving and spinning on slippery surfaces.
Using the system
Depress the brake pedal and hold it down. Depress
the brake pedal with firm steady pressure, but do
not pump the brakes. The ABS will operate to pre-
vent the wheels from locking up. Steer the vehicle to
avoid obstacles.
WARNING
Do not pump the brake pedal. Doing so may in-
crease the stopping distance.
Self-test feature
The ABS includes electronic sensors, electric
pumps, hydraulic solenoids and a computer. The
computer has a built-in diagnostic feature that tests
the system each time you start the engine and move
thevehicleatalowspeedinforwardorreverse.
When the self-test occurs, you may hear a “clunk”
noise and/or feel a pulsation in the brake pedal. This
is normal and does not indicate a malfunction. If the
computer senses a malfunction, it switches the ABS
off and illuminates the ABS warning light on the
instrument panel. The brake system then operates
normally, but without anti-lock assistance.
If the ABS warning light illuminates during the self-
test or while driving, have the vehicle checked by a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
Normal operation
The ABS will not initiate at speeds below 5 to 10
km/h (3 to 6 MPH). The speeds will vary according
to road conditions.
When the ABS senses that one or more wheels are
close to locking up, the actuator rapidly applies and
releases hydraulic pressure. This action is similar to
pumping the brakes very quickly. You may feel a
pulsation in the brake pedal and hear a noise from
the actuator under the bonnet when it is operating.
This is normal and indicates that the ABS is working
properly. However, the pulsation may indicate that
road conditions are hazardous and extra care is re-
quired while driving. When accelerating, driving on slippery surfaces or
suddenly avoiding obstacles on roads, the vehicle
might swerve or slip. The Electronic Stability Pro-
gramme (ESP) system continuously monitors and
compares the driver’s intended speed and the travel
direction. The system adjusts wheel brake pressure
and engine torque to assist in improving vehicle sta-
bility.
When the ESP system is operating, the “SLIP”
indicator light () in the combination meter
blinks.
When only the traction control (TCS) system in
the ESP system is operating, the “SLIP” indica-
tor light (
) in the combination meter will also
blink.
If the “SLIP” indicator light () blinks, the
road conditions are slippery. Be sure to drive
carefully. See “Warning/indicator lights and au-
dible reminders” in the “2. Instruments and
controls” section.
Indicator light
If a malfunction occurs in the system, the “SLIP”
indicator light (
) and the ESP indicator light
() come on in the combination meter.
As long as these indicator lights are on, the trac-
tion control function is cancelled.
The ESP system uses Active Brake Limited Slip
(ABLS) system to improve vehicle traction. The Ac-
tive Brake Limited Slip (ABLS) system works when
one of the driving wheels is spinning on a slippery
