●Since the spare tire is not equipped with
TPMS, when a spare tire is mounted or a
wheel is replaced the TPMS will not
function and the low tire pressure warn-
ing light will flash for approximately
1 minute. The light will remain on after
1 minute. Have your tires replaced
and/or TPMS system reset as soon as
possible. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN dealer for these services.
● Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by NISSAN could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS.
CAUTION
● The TPMS is not a substitute for the
regular tire pressure check. Be sure to
check the tire pressure regularly.
● If the vehicle is being driven at speeds
of less than 16 mph (25 km/h), the
TPMS may not operate correctly.
● Be sure to install the specified size of
tires to the four wheels correctly.
Malfunction Warning Light
(red) (if so equipped)
If this warning light illuminates this indicates ei-
ther the coolant temperature is above a critical threshold or the exhaust temperatures are above
a critical threshold. When illuminated this lamp
indicates the need to stop the engine as soon as
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.
Master warning light (if so
equipped)
This light comes on when various vehicle infor-
mation display warnings appear.
● No key warning
● Low fuel warning
● Low windshield-washer fluid warning ●
Parking brake release warning
● Door open warning
● Loose fuel cap warning
● Check tire pressure warning
● 4WD error (if so equipped)
● Front & rear tire size differences (if so
equipped)
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 P (Park) position.
This indicator means that the engine will start by
pushing the ignition switch with the brake pedal
depressed. You can start the engine from any
position of the ignition switch.
Remote Engine Start Mode (if so

apply the brake and place the ignition switch in
the ON position.
Brightness indicator
This indicator appears when the vehicle informa-
tion display screen brightness is being adjusted.

CAUTION
●Do not operate the washer continuously
for more than 30 seconds.
● Do not operate the washer if the
windshield-washer fluid reservoir is
empty. ●
Do not fill the windshield-washer fluid
reservoir with windshield-washer fluid
concentrates at full strength. Some
methyl alcohol based windshield-
washer fluid concentrates may perma-
nently stain the grille if spilled while
filling the windshield-washer fluid
reservoir.
● Pre-mix windshield-washer fluid con-
centrates with water to the manufactur-
er’s recommended levels before pour-
ing the fluid into the windshield-washer
fluid reservoir. Do not use the
windshield-washer fluid reservoir to
mix the windshield-washer fluid con-
centrate and water.
NOTE:
If the windshield wiper operation is inter-
rupted by snow or ice, the wiper may stop
moving to protect its motor. If this occurs,
turn the wiper switch to the OFF position
and remove the snow or ice that is on and
around the wiper arms. In approximately
1 minute, turn the switch on again to oper-
ate the wiper.
The windshield wiper and washer operates when
the ignition switch is in the ON position. Rotate the end of the lever to operate the wiper at
the following speed:
1Intermittent (INT) — intermittent operation
can be adjusted by turning the knob toward
A(Slower) orB(Faster) . Also, the inter-
mittent operation speed varies in accor-
dance with the vehicle speed. (For example,
when the vehicle speed is high, the intermit-
tent operation speed will be faster.)
2Low (LO) — continuous low speed operation
3High (HI) — continuous high speed opera-
tion
Rotate the lever the opposite direction
4to have
one sweep operation (MIST) of the wiper.
Press the button on the end of the lever
5to
operate the washer. The wiper will also operate
several times.
