INDICATOR LIGHTS
This vehicle has various indicator lights
that may illuminate to indicate a system
status. For additional information, refer to
the specific light in this section.
Automatic Transmissionposition indicator light
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, this indicator light shows the shif t
lever position. For additional information,
refer to “Driving the vehicle” in the “Starting
and driving” section of this manual.
Cruise main switchindicator light
The light comes on when the cruise control
main switch is pushed. The light goes out
when the main switch is pushed again.
When the cruise main switch indicator light
comes on, the cruise control system is op-
erational. For additional information, refer
to “Cruise control” in the “Starting and driv-
ing” section of this manual.
Cruise set switchindicator light
The light comes on while the vehicle speed
is controlled by the cruise control system. If
the light blinks while the engine is running,
it may indicate the cruise control system is
not functioning properly. Have the system
checked. It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
High beamindicator 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
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.
When the ignition switch is in the ON posi-
tion, sometimes the indicator light may il-
luminate for 20 seconds and then blink for
10 seconds, without the engine running.
This is due to a function of checking the
engine control system, and it is not a mal-
function. Af ter a few normal drives, this
function will not occur and the
stays
illuminated with the ignition switch in the
ON position.
CAUTION
Incorrect setting of the engine control
system may lead to non-compliance of
local and national emission laws and
regulations.

Headlight beam select
1To select the high beam function, en-
gage the low beams, and push the le-
ver forward until it latches. The high
beam lights come on and the
blue
indicator light illuminates.
2Pull the lever back to return to the low
beam. For additional information, refer
to “Headlight control switch” in this sec-
tion.
3Pulling and releasing the lever flashes
the headlight high beams on and off.
The low beams need not be on for this
to function.
Battery saver system
The battery saver system automatically
turns off the following lights af ter a period
of time when the ignition switch is placed in
the OFF position and the doors are closed:
∙ Headlights, when the headlight switch is in the
orposition
∙ Interior lights, when lef t in the ON posi- tion
Af ter the headlights automatically turn off
with the headlight switch in the
orposition, the headlights will illumi-
nate again if the headlight switch is moved
to the OFF position and then turned to
the
orposition.
CAUTION
Even though the battery saver feature
automatically turns off the headlights
af ter a period of time, you should turn
the headlight switch to the OFF position
when the engine is not running to avoid
discharging the vehicle battery.
DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS (DRL)
SYSTEM
The headlights automatically illuminate at
a reduced intensity when the engine is
started with the parking brake released.
The DRL system operates with the head-
light switch in the OFF position. Turn the
headlight switch to the
orposi-
tion for full illumination when driving at
night.
If the parking brake is applied before the
engine is started, the DRL system does not
illuminate. The DRL system illuminates
when the parking brake is released. The
DRL system will remain on until the ignition
switch is placed in the OFF position.
WARNING
When the DRL system is active, tail
lights on your vehicle are not on. It is
necessary at dusk to turn on your head-
lights. Failure to do so could cause an
accident injuring yourself and others.

outlined in this section.
Replacing the halogen headlight
bulb
The headlight is a semi-sealed beam type
which uses a replaceable headlight (halo-
gen) bulb. It is recommended that you visit
a NISSAN dealer for this service.
If the vehicle is equipped with af termarket
accessories, it may be necessary to re-aim
the head lamps. For additional information,
refer to NISSAN NV2500/3500 Body Build-
ers Guide for aiming instructions. An elec-
tronic copy of the NISSAN NV2500/3500
Body Builders Guide is available at ww-
w.nissancommercialvehicles.com or it is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
CAUTION
∙ High pressure halogen gas is sealedinside the halogen bulb. The bulb may
break if the glass envelope is
scratched or the bulb is dropped. ∙ When handling the bulb, do not touch
the glass envelope.
∙ DO NOT TOUCH THE BULB WITH BARE HANDS.
∙ Do not leave the bulb out of the head- light reflector for a long period of time
as dust, moisture and smoke may en-
ter the headlight body and affect the
performance of the headlight.
∙ Aiming is not necessary af ter replac- ing the bulb. When aiming is neces-
sary, it is recommended that you visit
a NISSAN dealer for this service.
NOTE:
Use the same number and wattage as
shown in the chart.
Fog may temporarily form inside the lens
of the exterior lights in the rain or in a car
wash. A temperature difference between
the inside and the outside of the lens
causes the fog. This is not a malfunction. If
large drops of water collect inside the lens,
It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
