CHECKING BULBS
With all doors closed, apply the parking brake
and turn the ignition switch to the ON position
without starting the engine. The following lights
will come on:
,,,,,,
The following lights come on briefly and then go
off (if so equipped):
,,,,,,
If any light does not come on, it may indicate a
burned-out bulb or an open circuit in the
electrical system. Have the system checked by
a NISSAN dealer.
Some indicators and warnings are also dis-
played on the vehicle information display be-
tween the speedometer and tachometer. (See
“Vehicle information display” (P.2-17) .)
WARNING LIGHTS
All-Wheel Drive (AWD) warning
light (AWD models)
The light illuminates when the ignition switch is
turned to the ON position. It turns off after the
engine is started.
If the All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system malfunc-
tions, or the diameter of the front and the rear
wheels are different, the warning light will either
remain illuminated or blink. (See “All-Wheel
Drive (AWD)” (P.5-20).)
CAUTION
. If the warning light comes on while
driving there may be a malfunction
in the AWD system. Reduce the
vehicle speed and have your vehicle
checked by a NISSAN dealer as
soon as possible.
. If the AWD warning light blinks
while driving:
— blinks rapidly (about twice a
second):
Pull off the road in a safe area,
and idle the engine. The driving
mode will change to 2WD to prevent the AWD system from
malfunctioning. If the warning
light turns off, you can drive
again.
— blinks slowly (about once every 2 seconds):
Pull off the road in a safe area,
and idle the engine. Check that
all tire sizes are the same, tire
pressure is correct and tires are
not worn.
. If the warning light is still on after
the above operations, have your
vehicle checked by a NISSAN dealer
as soon as possible.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)
warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON position,
the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning
light illuminates and then turns off. This indicates
the ABS is operational.
If the ABS warning light illuminates while the
engine is running, or while driving, it may
indicate the ABS is not functioning properly.
Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer.
If an ABS malfunction occurs, the anti-lock
2-14Instruments and controls
occupied. For about 5 seconds after the ignition
switch is in the ON position, the system does
not activate the warning light for the front
passenger.
See “Seat belts” (P.1-9) for precautions on seat
belt usage.
Supplemental air bag warning light
After turning the ignition switch to the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warning light
will illuminate. The supplemental air bag warning
light will turn off after about 7 seconds if the
supplemental front air bag and supplemental
side air bag, curtain side-impact air bag systems
and/or pretensioner seat belt are operational.
If any of the following conditions occur, the front
air bag, side air bag, curtain air bag and
pretensioner systems need servicing and your
vehicle must be taken to your nearest NISSAN
dealer.
.The supplemental air bag warning light
remains on after approximately 7 seconds.
. The supplemental air bag warning light
flashes intermittently.
. The supplemental air bag warning light does
not illuminate at all.
Unless checked and repaired, the Supplemental
Restraint Systems and/or the pretensioners may
not function properly. For additional information, see “Supplemental
Restraint System” (P.1-41) .
WARNING
If the supplemental air bag warning
light is on, it could mean that the front
air bag, side air bag, curtain air bag
and/or pretensioner systems will not
operate in an accident. To help avoid
injury to yourself or others, have your
vehicle checked by a NISSAN dealer as
soon as possible.
Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)
warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON position,
the Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) warning
light illuminates and then turns off.
The light will blink when the VDC system or the
traction control system is operating, thus alerting
the driver that the vehicle is nearing its traction
limits. The road surface may be slippery.
If the VDC warning light illuminates while the
VDC system is on, this light alerts the driver to
the fact that the VDC system’s fail-safe mode is
operating, for example the VDC system may not
be functioning properly. Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer. If a malfunction
occurs in the system, the VDC system function
will be canceled but the vehicle is still driveable.
For additional information, see “Vehicle Dynamic
Control (VDC) system” (P.5-27) of this manual.
INDICATOR LIGHTS
All-Wheel Drive (AWD) LOCK
indicator light (AWD models)
This light illuminates when the ignition switch is
turned to the ON position, and turns off within 1
second.
When selecting the LOCK mode while the
engine is running, this light will illuminate. (See
“All-Wheel Drive (AWD)” (P.5-20) .)
Exterior light indicator
This indicator illuminates when the headlight
switch is turned to theorposition and
the front parking lights, instrument panel lights,
rear combination lights, license plate lights or
headlights are on. The indicator turns off when
these lights are turned off.
