it may indicate the charging system is not
functioning 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 immediately.
CAUTION
Do not continue driving if the alternator
belt is loose, broken or missing.
Door open warning lightGUID-90E8EC5D-64F3-43A3-AFB4-B4F9AE171325This light illuminates when any of the doors and/
or back door are not closed securely while the

Electric power steering warning
light
GUID-D396E06F-A323-436F-8CBD-B0C0DFFF30DAWhen the ignition switch is in the ON position,
the electric power steering warning light illumi-
nates. After starting the engine, the electric
power steering warning light turns off. This
indicates the electric power steering system is
operational.
If the electric power steering warning light
illuminates while the engine is running, it may indicate the electric power steering system is
not functioning properly and may need servicing.
Have the electric power steering system
checked by a NISSAN dealer.
When the electric power steering warning light
illuminates with the engine running, the power
assist to the steering will cease operation but
you will still have control of the vehicle. At this
time, greater steering efforts are required to
operate the steering wheel, especially in sharp
turns and at low speeds.
See “Electric power steering system” (P.5-26) .
Engine oil pressure warning lightGUID-DEDF7AF1-1B6E-4066-8FCD-12948EA89DABThis light warns of low engine oil pressure. If the
light flickers or illuminates during normal driving,
pull off the road in a safe area, stop the engine
immediately
and 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” (P.8-9).)
CAUTION
Running the engine with the engine oil
pressure warning light on could cause
serious damage to the engine almost immediately. Such damage is not cov-
ered by warranty. Turn off the engine as
soon as it is safe to do so.

mately 1 minute. The light will
remain on after 1 minute. Contact
your NISSAN dealer as soon as
possible for tire replacement and/
or system resetting.
. Replacing tires with those not ori-
ginally specified by NISSAN could

Your vehicle has two types of security systems,
as follows:
.Vehicle security system
. NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System
The security condition will be shown by the
security indicator light.
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEMGUID-C0CDC402-19AF-4FD5-9A9D-E627521D7594The vehicle security system provides visual and
audio alarm signals if someone opens the doors,
or back door when the system is armed. It is not,
however, a motion detection type system that
activates when a vehicle is moved or when a
vibration occurs.
The system helps deter vehicle theft but cannot
prevent it, nor can it prevent the theft of interior
or exterior vehicle components in all situations.
Always secure your vehicle even if parking for a
brief period. Never leave your keys in the vehicle,
and always lock it when unattended. Be aware
of your surroundings, and park in secure, well-lit
areas whenever possible.
Many devices offering additional protection,
such as component locks, identification markers,
and tracking systems, are available at auto
supply stores and specialty shops. Your
NISSAN dealer may also offer such equipment.
Check with your insurance company to see if
you may be eligible for discounts for various
theft protection features.

How to arm the vehicle security systemGUID-1B4AC5E0-63E8-4119-8FA9-C08DA3043D1B1. Close all windows.
The system can be armed even if the
windows are open.
2. Models with Intelligent Key system: Place the ignition switch in the OFF position
and remove the Intelligent Key from the
vehicle.
Models without Intelligent Key system:
Place the ignition switch in the LOCK
position and remove the key.

4. Confirm that the security indicator light
illuminates. The security indicator light stays
on for about 30 seconds. The vehicle
security system is now pre-armed. After
about 30 seconds the vehicle security
system automatically shifts into the armed
phase. The security light begins to flash
once every approximately 3 seconds. If,
during this 30-second pre-arm time period,
the door is unlocked, or the ignition switch is
placed in the ACC or ON position, the
system will not arm.
Even when the driver and/or passengers
are in the vehicle, the system will activate
with all doors locked with the ignition
switch in the LOCK position. When placing
the ignition switch in the ACC or ON
position, the system will be released.Vehicle security system activationGUID-DC889C6E-622B-42E2-B243-2B36630B8448The vehicle security system will give the follow-
ing alarm:
. The headlights blink and the horn sounds
intermittently.
. The alarm automatically turns off after
approximately 50 seconds. However, the
alarm reactivates if the vehicle is tampered
with again.
The alarm is activated by:
. Unlocking the door without using the keyfob,
the Intelligent Key (if so equipped) the
request switch (if so equipped) or the key.
(Even if the door is opened by releasing the
door inside lock knob, the alarm will
activate.)
How to stop an activated alarmGUID-8A6CBAD0-6A94-4458-841F-1335410BAB0EThe alarm will stop by unlocking a door by
pushing the UNLOCK
button on the keyfob
or Intelligent Key, pushing the request switch or
using the key. The alarm will not stop if the
ignition switch is placed in the ACC or ON
position.
If the system does not operate as de-
scribed above, have it checked by a
NISSAN dealer.
NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER SYS-
TEM
GUID-9F4113F8-4207-412C-AB74-6A77890EFF47The NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System will not
allow the engine to start without the use of the
registered key.
If the engine fails to start using the registered
key, it may be due to interference caused by
another registered key, an automated toll road
device or automated payment device on the key
ring. Restart the engine using the following
procedures:
1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON position
for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Place the ignition switch in the OFF or LOCK position and wait approximately 10
seconds.
3. Repeat step 1 and 2 again.
4. Restart the engine while holding the device (which may have caused the interference)
separate from the registered key.
If this procedure allows the engine to start,
NISSAN recommends placing the regis-
tered key on a separate key ring to avoid
interference from other devices.
