ten the seat belts and turn the ignition switch to the
ON position without starting the engine.The following lights (where fitted) come on briefly
and then go off:,,,,,,,
,,,,,,
If any light fails to come on, it may indicate a burned-
out bulb or an open circuit in the electrical system.Have the system checked, and repaired promptly by
a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
Some indicators and warnings are also displayed in
the vehicle informational display between the speed-
ometer and tachometer see “Vehicle information
display” later in this section.
WARNING/INDICATOR LIGHTS AND AUDIBLE REMINDERS
2-4Instruments and controls

Low brake fluid warning light:
When the ignition switch is in the ON position, the
light warns of a low brake fluid level. If this warning
light illuminates, the Electronic Stability Programme
(ESP) warning light and the brake system warning
light (yellow) also illuminate. If the light illuminates
while the ignition switch is in the ON position with
the parking brake not applied, stop the vehicle and
perform the following steps:
1. Check the brake fluid level. If brake fluid level is
low, add fluid and have the system checked by a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop. See
“Brake and clutch fluid” in the “8. Maintenance
and do-it-yourself” section.
2. If the brake fluid level is correct, have the warn-
ing system checked by a NISSAN dealer or quali-
fied workshop.
WARNING
•Your brake system may not be working prop-
erly if the warning light is on. Driving could be
dangerous. If you judge the brake system to
be safe, drive carefully to the nearest service
station for repairs. Otherwise, have your ve-
hicle towed because driving it could be dan-
gerous.
•Pressing the brake pedal when the ignition
switch is not in the ON position and/or when
the brake fluid level is low may increase the
stopping distance and braking will require
greater pedal effort as well as pedal travel.
•If the brake fluid level is below the minimum
or MIN mark on the brake fluid reservoir, do
not drive until the brake system has been
checked at a NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop.
For further parking brake operation information see
“Parking brake switch” in the “8. Pre-driving checks
and adjustments” section.
Power steering warning light
WARNING
•If the engine is not running or is turned off
while driving, the power assist for the steer-
ing will not work. Steering will be harder to
operate.
•When the power steering warning light illumi-
nates with the engine running, there will be
no power assist for the steering. You will still
have control of the vehicle but the steering
will be harder to operate. Have the power
steering system checked by a NISSAN dealer
or qualified workshop.
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON posi-
tion, the power steering warning light illuminates.
After starting the engine, the power steering warn-
ing light turns off. This indicates that the electric
power steering system is operational.
If the power steering warning light illuminates while
the engine is running, it may indicate the power
steering system is not functioning properly and mayneed servicing. Have the electric power steering
system checked by a NISSAN dealer or qualified
workshop. See “Electric power steering system” in
the “5. Starting and driving” section.
Seat belt (driver and front
passenger) warning light
The seat belt warning light reminds you to fasten
your seat belts. The light illuminates whenever the
ignition switch is placed in the ON or START posi-
tion and remains illuminated until the driver’s and/or
front passenger’s seat belt is fastened. At the same
time, the chime sounds for about 6 seconds unless
the driver’s and/or front passenger’s seat belt is
securely fastened see “Seat belt reminder chime”
later in this section. The seat belt warning light may
also illuminate if the front passenger’s seat belt is
not fastened when the front passenger’s seat is oc-
cupied. For 7 seconds after the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position, the system does not acti-
vate the warning light for the front passenger. See
“Seat belts” in the “1. Safety — Seats, Seat belts
and Supplemental Restraint System” section for
precautions on seat belt usage.
Supplemental Restraint System
(SRS) air bag warning light
WARNING
If the supplemental air bag warning light is on, it
could mean that the front air bag, side air bag
(where fitted), curtain air bag (where fitted) and/
or pre-tensioner systems will not operate in an
Instruments and controls2-9

The electric parking brake can be applied or re-
leased by operating the parking brake switchjA.
To apply:Pull the switch
jAupj1 the indicator
light will illuminate.
To release:With the ignition switch in the ON posi-
tion, depress the brake pedal and push the switch
jA downj2 . The indicator light will turn off.
Before driving, check that the brake warning light
goes out. For additional information, see “Warn-
ing/indicator lights and audible reminders” in the
“2. Instruments and controls” section.
The electric parking brake also has an auto apply
and auto release function.
Manual transmission vehicles:
•Vehicle with key ignition switch:
The parking brake will automatically release
when you drive away using the accelerator, and
will automatically apply when the ignition switch
is placed in the OFF position.
•Vehicle with push-button ignition switch:
The parking brake will automatically release
when you drive away using the accelerator, and
will automatically apply when you switch the en-
gine off.
XTRONIC transmission vehicles:
The parking brake does not apply automatically. If
applied manually, the parking brake will automati-
cally release when you press the accelerator with
the shift lever in Drive (D) or Reverse (R), provided:
•The driver is wearing a seat belt, or
•The driver accelerates away within 5 seconds of
shifting from Park (P) or Neutral (N) to Drive (D)
or Reverse (R).
If you have tried to start driving the vehicle while not
wearing a seat belt, you will need to put on your seat
belt and place the shift lever in Drive (D) or Reverse
(R) again before the parking brake will release auto-
matically.
If you have a vehicle with XTRONIC Transmission,
and you require automatic parking brake applica-
tion, please contact a NISSAN dealer.
To keep the electric parking brake released after
turning off the ignition:
•Vehicle with key ignition switch:

PARKING BRAKE SWITCH
3-16Pre-driving checks and adjustments

•A buzzer will sound if the vehicle is driven
without releasing the parking brake. See “Au-
dible reminders” in the “2. Instruments and
controls” section.
•While the electric parking brake is applied or
released, an operating sound is heard from
the lower side of the rear seat. This is normal
and does not indicate a malfunction.
•When the electric parking brake is frequently
applied and released in a short period of time,
the parking brake may not operate in order to
prevent the parking brake system from over-
heating. If this occurs, operate the electric
parking brake switch again after waiting ap-
proximately 1 minute.
•The electric parking brake can only be re-
leased with the ignition switch in the ON posi-
tion.
•If the electric parking brake must be applied
while driving in an emergency, pull up and
hold the parking brake switch. When you re-
lease the parking brake switch, the parking
brake will be released.
•While pulling up the electric parking brake
switch while driving, the parking brake is ap-
plied and a chime sounds. The parking brake
indicator light in the meter and in the parking
brake switch illuminate. This does not indi-
cate a malfunction. The electric parking brake
indicator lights in the meter and in the parking
brake switch turn off when the parking brake
is released.
•Pull up the electric parking brake switch twice
so that the maximum electric parking brake
force is applied to the vehicle.
•When pulling the electric parking brake switch
up with the ignition switch in the OFF or ACC
position, the parking brake switch indicator
light will continue to illuminate for a short pe-
riod of time.
CAUTION
To park the vehicle in cold climates place the
shift lever in 1st (1) or Reverse (R) (or in Park (P)
for automatic (AT) vehicles), and place suitable
chocks at both the front and back of a wheel with
the electric parking brake released. If the electric
parking brake is applied in cold climates, the
brake may become frozen and cannot be re-
leased.
DRIVING AWAY WHEN TOWING A
TRAILER
Please note the following points to prevent the ve-
hicle from rolling back unintentionally on a gradient.
•Pull and hold the parking brake switch and press
the accelerator. The parking brake will remain
engaged and prevent any tendency to roll back
down the slope.
•You can release the parking brake switch as
soon as the engine is delivering enough power
to the wheels.
Depending on the weight of the vehicle and trailer
and the steepness of the slope, there may be a ten-dency to roll back downhill when driving away from
a standstill. You can prevent this by pulling up the
parking brake switch as you press the accelerator
(in the same way as with a conventional handbrake).
