Low Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF)
warning light
When this warning light illuminates, the DEF fluid
needs to be topped off.
For additional information, refer to the “Fuel and
refueling” section of this manual.
Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF) warning
light
When the warning light illuminates, it indicates
that particulate matter is accumulated to the
specified amount of the limit in the filter and the
filter needs to regenerate. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)” in
the “Maintenance” section of this manual.
CAUTION
If you continue driving with the DPF warn-
ing light on without performing the filter
regeneration, this will lead to particle mat-
ter overload in the filter. If this happens,
the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) will
turn on to indicate the necessity that a
NISSAN or qualified dealer performs the
service regeneration. The performance of
the engine might be limited to protect the
DPF system.

safely done. The engine must remain shut down
until the engine can be repaired.
