2018 NISSAN ARMADA ignition

warning chime will sound if the vehicle is
traveling close to either the left or the
right of a traveling lane with detectable
lane markers.
If the light comes on in orange and
remains on, it may indicate that the LDW
and I-LI systems are not functioning
properly. Although the vehicle is still
driveable, have the systems checked. It
is recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.
See “Lane Departure Warning (LDW)/In-
telligent Lane Intervention (I-LI)” (P.5-23).
Low tire pressure warning
light
Your vehicle is equipped with a Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) that
monitors the tire pressure of all tires
except the spare.
The low tire pressure warning light warns
of low tire pressure or indicates that the
TPMS is not functioning properly.
After the ignition switch is placed in the
ON position, this light illuminates for
about 1 second and turns off.
Low tire pressure warning:
If the vehicle is being driven with low tire
pressure, the warning light will illuminate.
A CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning also appears in the vehicle information dis-
play. If you select the tire pressure in-
formation in the center display, the Low
Pressure information will be displayed.
The tire pressure for each tire will also
be displayed.
When the low tire pressure warning light
illuminates, you should stop and adjust
the tire pressure to the recommended
COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and
Loading Information label. The low tire
pressure warning light does not automa-
tically turn off when the tire pressure is
adjusted. After the tire is inflated to the
recommended pressure, the vehicle must
be driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25
km/h) to activate the TPMS and turn off
the low tire pressure warning light. Use a
tire pressure gauge to check the tire
pressure.
The CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning ap-
pears each time the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position as long as the
low tire pressure warning light remains
illuminated.
For additional information, see “Vehicle
information display” (P.2-21), “Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring System (TPMS)” (P.5-5)
and “Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) ” (P.6-3).
TPMS malfunction:
If the TPMS is not functioning properly,
the low tire pressure warning light will
flash for approximately 1 minute when the
ignition switch is placed in the ON posi-
tion. The light will remain on after 1
minute. Have the system checked. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service. The CHECK TIRE PRES-
SURE warning does not appear if the low
tire pressure warning light illuminates to
indicate a TPMS malfunction.
For additional information, see “Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring System (TPMS)” (P.5-5).
WARNING
.
If the light does not illuminate
with the ignition switch placed in
the ON position, have the vehicle
checked as soon as possible. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
. If the light illuminates or Low
Pressure information is displayed
on the monitor screen while driv-
ing, avoid sudden steering man-
euvers or abrupt braking, reduce
vehicle speed, pull off the road to
a safe location and stop the
vehicle as soon as possible. Driv-

ing with under-inflated tires may
permanently damage the tires
and increase the likelihood of tire
failure. Serious vehicle damage
could occur and may lead to an
accident and could result in ser-
ious personal injury. Check the
tire pressure for all four tires.
Adjust the tire pressure to the
recommended COLD tire pressure
shown on the Tire and Loading
Information label to turn the low
tire pressure warning light OFF. If
the light still illuminates while
driving after adjusting the tire
pressure, a tire may be flat or
the TPMS may be malfunctioning.
If you have a flat tire, replace it
with a spare tire as soon as
possible. If no tire is flat and all
tires are properly inflated, it is
recommended you consult a
NISSAN dealer.
. Since the spare tire is not
equipped with the TPMS, when a
spare tire is mounted or a wheel
is replaced, the TPMS will not
function and the low tire pressure
warning light will flash for ap-
proximately 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 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.

in the ON position, the system does not
activate the warning light for the front
passenger.
See “Seat belts” (P.1-20) for precautions on
seat belt usage.
Supplemental air bag warning
light
After placing the ignition switch in the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warn-
ing light will illuminate. The supplemental
air bag warning light will turn off after
about 7 seconds if the air bag and/or

If any of the following conditions occur, the air bag and/or pretensioner systems
needs servicing.
.
The supplemental air bag warning
light remains on after approximately
7 seconds.
. The supplemental air bag warning
light flashes intermittently.
. The supplemental air bag warning
light does not come on at all.
It is recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for these services.
Unless checked and repaired, the supple-
mental restraint system (air bag system)
and/or the pretensioners may not func-
tion properly.
For additional information, see “Supple-
mental restraint system” (P.1-54).
WARNING
If the supplemental air bag warning
light is on, it could mean that the
front air bag, side air bag, curtain air
bag systems and/or pretensioner
systems will not operate in an acci-
dent. To help avoid injury to yourself
or others, have your vehicle checked.
It is recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)
warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC) warning light illuminates and then
turns off.
The light will blink when the VDC system
or the traction control system is operat-
ing, thus alerting the driver that the
vehicle is nearing its traction limits. The
road surface may be slippery.
When the VDC warning light illuminates
when the VDC system is turned on, this
light alerts the driver to the fact that the
VDC system’s fail-safe mode is operating,
for example the VDC or hill start assist
system may not be functioning properly.
Have the system checked. It is recom-
mended you visit a NISSAN dealer for this
service. If a malfunction occurs in the
system, the VDC system function will be
canceled but the vehicle is still driveable.
For additional information, see “Vehicle
Dynamic Control (VDC) system” (P.5-140).
