status. Then the oil display status switches to
odometer and twin trip odometer/trip computer
information mode that was displayed before the
ignition switch was placed in the ACC, OFF or
LOCK position.
The oil level display status provides specific in-
formation regarding your approximate engine oil
level.
If the oil level is sufficient, “Oil Good” is displayed
for approximately 10 seconds. If the oil level is
low, “Oil Lo” blinks for approximately 30 seconds
in order to draw your attention to necessary ac-
tion.
Quickly push and release the trip computer

mate oil level indication.
In case of low engine oil level, see “Engine oil” in
the “Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section for
the proper engine oil refilling procedure.

the warranty.
● NISSAN recommends checking the oil
level every 3,000 miles (5,000 km).
2-10Instruments and controls
High temperature warning light(red)
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the high temperature warning light illu-
minates and then turns off. This indicates that the
high temperature sensor in the engine coolant
system is operational.
CAUTION
If the high temperature warning light illu-
minates while the engine is running, it
may indicate the engine temperature is
extremely high. Stop the vehicle safely as
soon as possible. If the vehicle is over-
heated, continuing vehicle operation may
seriously damage the engine. See “If your
vehicle overheats” in the “In case of emer-
gency” section.
orLow fuel warning
light
This light comes on when the fuel level in the fuel
tank is getting low. Refuel as soon as it is conve-
nient, preferably before the fuel gauge reaches E
(Empty) . There will be a small reserve of fuel
in the tank when the fuel gauge reaches E
(Empty) , showing no more fuel bars.
Low tire pressure warning light
(if so equipped)
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
pressure, the warning light will illuminate.
A CHECK TIRE PRES (pressure) warning
message is also displayed in the odometer.
When the low tire pressure warning light
illuminates, you should stop and adjust the
tire pressure of all 4 tires to the recom-
mended COLD tire pressure shown on the
Tire and Loading Information label located
in the driver’s door opening. The low tire
pressure warning light does not automati-
cally turn off when the tire pressure is ad-
justed. After the tire is inflated to the rec-
ommended 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 pres-
sure gauge to check the tire pressure.
The low tire pressure warning light remains illu-
minated until the tires are inflated to the recom-
mended COLD tire pressure. The CHECK TIRE
PRES warning message is displayed each time
the ignition switch is placed in the ON position as
long as the low tire pressure warning light re-
mains illuminated.
For additional information, see
Check tire pres-
sure warning message reset button in theIn-
struments and controls section and “Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring System (TPMS)” in the “Starting
and driving” section and in the “In case of emer-
gency” 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 and “Tire pressure” in the “Main-
tenance and do-it-yourself” section.
