VEHICLE INFORMATION DISPLAY
INDICATORS FOR OPERATION
The design of the warnings and alerts may differ
depending on the model.

not closed securely. When theswitch is
pushed, the lift gate open warning turns off.
3. Loose fuel cap warning
This warning appears when the fuel-filler cap is
not tightened correctly after the vehicle has
been refueled. (See “Fuel-filler cap” (P.3-11) .)
4. Check tire pressure warning
This warning appears when the low tire pressure
warning light in the meter illuminates and low tire
pressure is detected. The warning appears each
time the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position as long as the low tire pressure warning
light remains illuminated. If this warning appears,
stop the vehicle and adjust the tire pressure to
the recommended COLD tire pressure shown
on the Tire and Loading Information label. The
check tire pressure warning turns off after a period of time. (See “Low tire pressure warning
light” (P.2-12) and “Tire Pressure Monitoring
System (TPMS)” (P.5-3) .)
5. Parking brake release warning
This warning appears when the vehicle speed is
above 4 MPH (7 km/h) and the parking brake is
applied.
6. Setting menu operation warning
The warning appears when you try to operate
the setting menu while driving. The setting menu
can only be entered when the vehicle is
stationary.
7. Low outside temperature warning
This warning appears if the outside temperature
drops below 378F(3
8C) with the ignition switch
in the ON position. The outside temperature
display flashes at the same time. These warning
features can be turned off. (See “Trip computer”
(P.2-21) .)
8. Low fuel warning
This warning appears when the fuel level in the
tank is getting low. Refuel as soon as it is
convenient, preferably before the fuel gauge
reaches the empty (0) position.
There is a small reserve of fuel remaining
in the tank when the fuel gauge reaches
the empty (0) position.
9. Driver alert
This warning appears when the previously set
time for a break is reached. You can set the time
for up to 6 hours in the setting menu. (See “Trip
computer” (P.2-21).)
10. Cruise control indicator (if so
equipped)
The cruise main switch indicator (CRUISE) is
displayed when the cruise control main switch is
pushed. When the main switch is pushed again,
the CRUISE indicator disappears. When the
CRUISE indicator is displayed, the cruise
control system is operational.
The cruise control set indicator (SET) is
displayed while the vehicle speed is controlled
by the cruise control system. If the SET indicator
blinks while the engine is running, it may indicate
that the cruise control system is not functioning
properly. Have the system checked by a
NISSAN dealer.
For more details, see “Cruise control” (P.5-17) .

INDICATORS FOR MAINTENANCE
1. Service due indicator
This indicator appears when the customer set
distance comes for service due, for example, for
engine oil and oil filter. You can set or reset the
distance for service due. (See “Trip computer”
(P.2-21) .) For scheduled maintenance items and
intervals, see your NISSAN Service and Main-
tenance Guide.
2. Tire replacement indicator
This indicator appears when the customer set
distance comes for replacing tires. You can set
or reset the distance for replacing tires. (See
“Trip computer” (P.2-21) .)
WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not a
substitute for regular tire checks, in-
cluding tire pressure checks. See
“Changing wheels and tires” (P.8-35) .
Many factors including tire inflation,
alignment, driving habits and road con-
ditions affect tire wear and when tires
should be replaced. Setting the tire
replacement indicator for a certain
driving distance does not mean your
tires will last that long. Use the tire
3. Driving Distance (miles or km)
The Driving Distance mode shows the distance
driven since the last reset. The driving distance
can be reset by pushing and holding the
switch*Afor less than 3 seconds.
4. Elapsed Time
The Elapsed Time mode shows the time since
the last reset. The displayed time can be reset
by pushing and holding the
switch*Afor
less than 3 seconds.
5. Range (distance to empty) (dte —
miles or km)
The distance to empty (dte) mode provides you
with an estimation of the distance that can be
driven before refueling. The dte is constantly
being calculated based on the amount of fuel in
the fuel tank and the actual fuel consumption.
The display is updated every 30 seconds.
The dte mode includes a low range warning
feature. If the fuel level is low, the warning is
displayed on the screen.
When the fuel level drops even lower, the dte
display will change to “----”.
. If the amount of fuel added is small, the
display just before the ignition switch is
turned to the “OFF” position may continue to
be displayed. .
When driving uphill or rounding curves, the
fuel in the tank shifts, which may momenta-
rily change the display.
