WARNING LIGHTS, INDICATOR LIGHTS
AND AUDIBLE REMINDERS
2-8Instruments and controls
Front passenger air bagstatus light
The front passenger air bag status light will
be lit and the passenger front air bag will be
OFF depending on how the front passen-
ger seat is being used.
For additional information, refer to “Front
passenger air bag and status light” in the
“Safety — Seats, seat belts and supplemen-
tal restraint system” section of this manual.
High beam indicator light(blue)
This blue light comes on when the head-
light high beams are on and goes out when
the low beams are selected.
The high beam indicator light also comes
on when the passing signal is activated.
Malfunction Indicator Light(MIL)
If this indicator light comes on steady or
blinks while the engine is running, it may
indicate a potential emission control mal-
function. The MIL may also come on steady if the
fuel-filler cap is loose or missing, or if the
vehicle runs out of fuel. Check to make sure
the fuel-filler cap is installed and closed
tightly, and that the vehicle has at least
3 gallons (11.4 liters) of fuel in the fuel tank.
Af ter a few driving trips, the
light
should turn off if no other potential emis-
sion control system malfunction exists.
If this indicator light comes on steady for
20 seconds and then blinks for 10 seconds
when the engine is not running, it indicates
that the vehicle is not ready for an emission
control system inspection/maintenance
test. For additional information, refer to
“Readiness for Inspection/Maintenance
(I/M) test” in the “Technical and consumer
information” section of this manual. Operation
The MIL will come on in one of two ways:
∙
MIL on steady — An emission control sys-
tem malfunction has been detected.
Check the fuel-filler cap if the Loose Fuel
Cap warning appears in the vehicle infor-
mation display. If the fuel-filler cap is
loose or missing, tighten or install the cap
and continue to drive the vehicle.
The
light should turn off af ter a few
driving trips. If the
light does not
turn off af ter a few driving trips, have the
vehicle inspected. It is recommended
that you visit a NISSAN dealer for this ser-
vice. You do not need to have your vehicle
towed to the dealer.
∙MIL blinking — An engine misfire has been
detected which may damage the emis-
sion control system. To reduce or avoid
emission control system damage:
– do not drive at speeds above 45 mph (72 km/h).
– avoid hard acceleration or decelera- tion.
– avoid steep uphill grades.
– if possible, reduce the amount of cargo being hauled or towed.
2-14Instruments and controls
NOTE:
Autolight activation sensitivity and the
time delay for autolight shutoff can be
adjusted. For additional information, re-
fer to “Vehicle information display ” in
this section.
To turn on the autolight system:1. Turn the headlight switch to the AUTO position
1.
2. Turn the ignition switch to ON.
3. The autolight system automatically turns the headlights on and off.
Initially, if the ignition switch is turned off
and a door is opened and lef t open, the
headlights remain on for a period of time. If
another door is opened while the head-
lights are on, then the timer is reset.
To turn the autolight system off, turn the
switch to the OFF,
,orposition. Be sure you do not put anything on top
of the autolight sensor located in the top
side
1of the instrument panel. The au-
tolight sensor controls the autolight; if it
is covered, the autolight sensor reacts as
if it is dark out and the headlights will
illuminate. If this occurs while parked
with the engine off and the ignition
switch placed in the ON position, your
vehicle’s battery could become dis-
charged.

RCTA SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for the RCTA system. Failure to operate
the vehicle in accordance with these
system limitations could result in seri-
ous injury or death.
∙ Always check surroundings and turnto check what is behind you before
backing up. The radar sensors detect
approaching (moving) vehicles. The
radar sensors cannot detect every
object such as:

vehicles
– A vehicle that is passing at speeds greater than approximately
19 mph (30 km/h)
– A vehicle that is passing at speeds lower than approximately 5 mph
(8 km/h)
∙ The radar sensors may not detect ap- proaching vehicles in certain
situations:
– Illustration a: When a vehicle parked next to you obstructs the
beam of the radar sensor.
