When the E-Lock system switch is turned ON,
the indicator light will flash until the system en-
gages. However, if all operation conditions listed
above are not met or the system becomes disen-
gaged, the indicator light will continue to flash.
The Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) system is disabled
and the ABS light illuminates when the E-Lock
system is ON. Also, the Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC) system is disabled and the VDC light
illuminates when the E-Lock system is ON.
For additional information, refer to “Electronic
locking rear differential (E-Lock) system” in the
“Starting and driving” section of this manual for
further explanation and system limitations.
●Use the Electronic Locking Rear Differential
(E-Lock) system (if so equipped) . For addi-
tional information, refer to “Electronic lock-
ing rear differential (E-lock) system” in this
section for further explanation and system
limitations.
● If it is difficult to free the vehicle, rock the
vehicle back and forth between reverse and
drive gears.
● If the vehicle is stuck deep in mud, place
stones or wooden blocks under the tires.
Then try the recovery procedures above. Tire
chains may be effective.
●Do not drive the vehicle in the 4H or 4LO
position on dry hard surface roads. Driv-
ing on dry, hard surfaces in 4H or 4LO
may cause unnecessary noise, tire wear
and increased fuel consumption.
If the 4WD warning light or warning
message turn on when you are driving
on dry hard surface roads:
– in the 4H position, shift the 4WD shift switch to 2WD.
– in the 4LO position, stop the vehicle, move the automatic transmission
shift lever to the N position with the
brake pedal depressed, and shift the
4WD shift switch to 2WD.
● If the warning light or warning message
is still on after the above operation,
have your vehicle checked as soon as
possible. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
● The transfer case may be damaged if
you continue driving with the warning
light or warning message on. The E-Lock system can provide additional trac-
tion and should only be used when a vehicle has
become or is becoming stuck. This system oper-
ates by electronically “locking” the two rear drive
wheels together, allowing them to turn at the
same speed. The system is used when it is not
possible to free a stuck vehicle even when using
the 4LO position (4-wheel drive vehicles) .
When added traction is required, activate the
E-Lock system by pushing the switch on. For
additional information, refer to “Electronic locking
rear differential (E-Lock) system switch” in the
“Instruments and controls” section of this manual.
Once the system fully engages, the indicator light
in the instrument panel will remain on. When the
system is activated, both rear wheels will engage,
providing added traction.
The rear wheels may momentarily slip or move to
engage the system, and the system will only
engage up to approximately 4 mph (7 km/h).
Once the vehicle is free, the system should be
turned off and driving resumed.
The Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) system is disabled
and the ABS light illuminates when the E-Lock
system is on. Also, the Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC) system is disabled and the
