6. Fuel gaugeThe needle indicators may move slightly
after the ignition switch is placed in the

malfunction.
CAUTION
.For cleaning, use a soft cloth, dam-
pened with water. Never use a rough
cloth, alcohol, benzine, thinner or
any kind of solvent or paper towel
with a chemical cleaning agent.
They will scratch or cause discolora-
tion to the lens.
.Do not spray any liquid such as
water on the meter lens. Spraying
liquid may cause the system to
malfunction.

METERS AND GAUGES

Resetting twin trip odometer:
Push the TRIP RESET switch
*3for more than
1 second to reset the trip odometer to zero.
JVI0951X
TACHOMETER
The tachometer indicates engine speed in
revolutions per minute (RPM) .Do not rev the
engine into the red zone
*1.
CAUTION
When engine speed approaches the red
zone, shift to a higher gear or reduce
engine speed. Operating the engine in
the red zone may cause serious engine
damage.
JVI0820X
ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE
GAUGE
The engine coolant temperature gauge indicates
the engine coolant temperature.
The engine coolant temperature is normal when
the gauge needle points within the zone
*1
shown in the illustration.
The engine coolant temperature will vary with
the outside air temperature and driving condi-
tions.
Instruments and controls2-7

2-8Instruments and controls
CAUTION
.If the gauge indicates the engine
coolant temperature is near the hot
(H) end of the normal range, reduce
vehicle speed to decrease the tem-
perature.
.If the gauge is over the normal
range, stop the vehicle as soon as
safely possible and let the engine
idle.
.If the engine is overheated, contin-
ued operation of the vehicle may
seriously damage the engine. (See
“If your vehicle overheats” (P.6-11)
for immediate action required.)
JVI0640X
FUEL GAUGE
The fuel gauge indicates the approximate fuel
level in the tank when the ignition switch is in the
ON position.
The gauge may move slightly during braking,
turning, accelerating, or going up and down hills
due to movement of fuel in the tank.
The low fuel warning
appears on the vehicle
information display when the fuel level in the tank
is getting low. Refuel as soon as it is convenient,
preferably before the gauge reads 0 (empty) .
The arrow,
, indicates the location of the
fuel-filler door.Refuel before the gauge reads the empty
(0) position.
There is a small reserve of fuel in the tank when
the fuel gauge reads the empty (0) position.
CAUTION
.If the vehicle runs out of fuel, themalfunction indicator light (MIL)
may come on. Refuel as soon as
possible. After a few driving trips,
the
light should turn off. If the
light remains on after a few driving
trips, have the vehicle inspected. It
is recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
.For additional information, see
“Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)”
(P.2-16) .

4-34Heater, air conditioner, audio and phone systems
defog the windshield. The air recirculation mode
automatically turns off, allowing outside air to be
drawn into the passenger compartment to
further improve the defogging performance.
The air conditioner is always on in front defroster
or
mode, regardless of whether the
indicator light is on or off.
NOTE:
.The air conditioner system should be
operated for approximately 10 minutes
at least once a month. This helps
prevent damage to the air conditioner
system due to the lack of lubrication.
.A visible mist may be seen coming
from the ventilators in hot, humid
conditions as the air is cooled rapidly.
This does not indicate a malfunction.
.If the engine coolant temperature be-
comes too high, the air recirculation
mode will be activated and the indica-
tor light will come on automatically.
.If the engine coolant temperature
gauge indicates engine coolant tem-
perature over the normal range, turn
the air conditioner off. (See“If your
vehicle overheats”(P.6-11) .)

Automatic operation (AUTO)
The AUTO mode may be used year-round as the
system automatically controls the air conditioner
to a constant temperature, air flow distribution
and fan speed after the desired temperature is
set manually.
Cooling and dehumidified heating:
1. Push the AUTO button (the indicator light
will turn on) .
2. Turn the temperature control dial to set the
desired temperature.

sponding temperature control dial.
Also turning the passenger’s side tempera-
ture control dial changes only the front
passenger’s side temperature. (The DUAL
indicator light will illuminate and DUAL will
appear on the display.)
.To cancel the separate temperature setting,
push the DUAL button (the indicator light
will turn off) and the driver’s side tempera-
ture setting will be applied to both the driver
and passenger sides.
Air intake control:
.Push the air recirculation
button to
recirculate interior air inside the vehicle. The
indicator light on the button will come on.
The air recirculation cannot be activated
when the air conditioner is in the front
defrosting mode.
.Push the outside air circulation
button
to draw outside air into the passenger
compartment. The indicator light on the
button will come on.
.To control the air intake automatically, push
and hold either the air recirculation
button or the outside air circulationbutton (whichever button with the indicator
light illuminated) . The indicator lights (both
air recirculation
and outside air circula-
tionbuttons) will flash twice, and thenthe air intake will switch to automatic control.
When the automatic control is set, the
system automatically alternates between
the outside air circulation and the air
recirculation modes. (The indicator light of
the active mode will turn on.)
NOTE:
Even if the system is manually set to the air
recirculation mode, when both outside
temperature and coolant temperature are
low, the system may automatically switch
to the outside air circulation mode.
To turn the system off:
To turn off the heater and air conditioner, push
the ON·OFF button.
Push the ON·OFF button again, the system will
turn on in the mode which was used immediately
before the system was turned off.
Remote engine start logic (if so
equipped)
When the remote engine start function is
activated, the vehicles equipped with the auto-
matic air conditioner and heater may go into
automatic heating or cooling mode depending
on the outside and cabin temperatures. During
this period, the display and the buttons will be
inoperable until the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position. When the temperature is low,the rear defroster and the heated steering wheel
(if so equipped) may also be activated auto-
matically with the activation of the remote engine
start function. (See “Remote engine start” (P.3-
22) .)
