WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not a
substitute for regular tire checks, includ-
ing tire pressure checks. For additional
information, refer to “Changing wheels
and tires” in the “Do-it-yourself” section of
this manual. Many factors including tire
inflation, alignment, driving habits and
road conditions 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 replacement indica-
tor as a guide only and always perform
regular tire checks. Failure to perform
regular tire checks, including tire pressure
checks could result in tire failure. Serious
vehicle damage could occur and may lead
to a collision, which could result in serious
personal injury or death.

The other menu item allows the user to set a
maintenance reminder at a specific interval to
check various other maintenance items (ie. air
filter, brakes, coolant) . To set the reminder, press

Low brake fluid warning light
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the light warns of a low brake fluid level.
If the light comes on while the engine is running,
with the parking brake not applied, stop the ve-
hicle and perform the following:1. Check the brake fluid level. Add brake fluid as necessary. For additional information, re-
fer to “Brake fluid” in the “Do-it-yourself”
section of this manual.
2. If the brake fluid level is correct, have the warning system checked. It is recommended
that you visit a NISSAN dealer for this ser-
vice.
WARNING
●Your brake system may not be working
properly if the warning light is on. Driv-
ing could be dangerous. If you judge it
to be safe, drive carefully to the nearest
service station for repairs. Otherwise,
have your vehicle towed because driv-
ing it could be dangerous.
● Pressing the brake pedal with the en-
gine stopped and/or a low brake fluid
level may increase your stopping dis-
tance and braking will require greater
pedal effort and 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. It is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning
indicator
When the parking brake is released and the
brake fluid level is sufficient, if both the brake
warning light and the ABS warning light illumi-
nate, it may indicate the ABS is not functioning
properly. Have the brake system checked and, if
necessary, repaired. It is recommended you visit
a NISSAN dealer for this service. Avoid high-
speed driving and abrupt braking. For additional
information, refer to “Anti-lock Braking System
(ABS) warning light” in this section.
Charge warning light
If this light comes on while the engine is running,
it may indicate the charging system is not func-
tioning properly. Turn the engine off and check
the generator belt. If the belt is loose, broken,
missing, or if the light remains on, have the sys-
tem checked. It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
CAUTION
● Do not ground electrical accessories di-
rectly to the battery terminal. Doing so
will bypass the variable control system
(if so equipped) and the vehicle battery
may not charge completely. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Variable
voltage control system” in the “Do-it-
yourself” section of this manual.
● Do not continue driving if the generator
belt is loose, broken or missing.

it can be safely done. The Engine must remain
shut down until the engine can be repaired. For
additional information, refer to the “Titan Diesel
Owner’s Manual”.
CAUTION
● Continuing vehicle operation without
proper servicing of the engine control
system could lead to poor driveability,
reduced fuel economy, and damage to
the engine control system, which may
affect the vehicle’s warranty coverage.
● Failure to drain the water from the fuel
filter can cause serious damage to the
engine. It is recommended that you con-
tact a NISSAN dealer as soon as
possible.

NISSAN Intelligent Key®
warning light (if so equipped)
After the ignition switch is placed in the “ON”
position, this light comes on for about 2 seconds
and then turns off. This light illuminates or blinks
as follows:
● The light blinks in yellow when the door is
closed with the Intelligent Key left outside
the vehicle and the ignition switch in the
“ACC” or “ON” position. Make sure that the
Intelligent Key is inside the vehicle. ●
The light blinks in green when the Intelligent
Key battery is running out of power. Replace
the battery with a new one. For additional
information, refer to “Battery” in the “Do-it-
yourself” section of this manual.
● The light illuminates in yellow when it warns
of a malfunction with the Intelligent Key sys-
tem.
If the warning light illuminates in yellow while the
engine is stopped, it may be impossible to start
the engine. If the light comes on while the engine
is running, you can drive the vehicle. Have the
system checked. It is recommended that you visit
a NISSAN dealer for this service.
For additional information, refer to “NISSAN In-
telligent Key®” in the “Pre-driving checks and
adjustments” section of this manual.
