Type A (if so equipped)
Engine coolant temperature monitoring is
performed by the high temperature warn-
ing light. For additional information, refer to
“High temperature warning light” in this
section.Type B (if so equipped)
NOTE:
The ignition switch must be placed in the
ON position for the gauge to give a read-
ing.
The gauge indicates the engine coolant
temperature. The engine coolant tempera-
ture will vary with the outside air tempera-
ture and driving conditions.
CAUTION
If the gauge indicates a coolant tem-
perature near the hot (H) end of the nor-
mal range, reduce vehicle speed to de-
crease the temperature. If the gauge is
over the normal range, stop the vehicle
as soon as safely possible. If the engine
is overheated, continued operation of
the vehicle may seriously damage the
engine. For additional information, re-
fer to “If your vehicle overheats” in the
“In case of emergency ” section of this
manual for immediate action required.
FUEL GAUGE
The gauge indicates theapproximatefuel
level in the tank when the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position.
The gauge may move slightly during brak-
ing, turning, acceleration, or going up or
down hills.

Odometer
The odometer records the total distance
the vehicle has been driven.
Trip A
Measures the distance of one specific trip.
Trip B
Measures the distance of a second specific
trip.
Instant fuel consumption
The instant fuel consumption mode shows
the instant fuel economy. The display up-
dates instantly when driving.
Average fuel consumption (mpg
or l (liter)/100 km)
The average fuel consumption mode
shows the average fuel consumption since
the last reset. Resetting is done by pressing
the trip or change button for more than
approximately 1 second. The display is up-
dated every 30 seconds. At about the first
1/3 mi (500 m) af ter a reset, the display
shows (----).
Distance to empty
The distance to empty mode provides you
with an estimation of the distance that can
be driven before refueling. The range is
constantly being calculated, based on the
amount of fuel in the fuel tank and the
actual fuel consumption.
The distance to empty includes a low
range warning feature: when the fuel level
is low, the distance to empty is automati-
cally selected and the digits blink in order
to draw the driver’s attention. Press the trip
computer change/reset button
Aif youwish to return to the mode that was se-
lected before the warning occurred.
When the fuel level drops even lower, the
distance to empty will display (----).
Outside air temperature (°F or °C)
(if so equipped)
The outside air temperature is displayed in
°F or °C.
The ambient temperature sensor is lo-
cated in front of the radiator. The sensor
may be affected by road or engine heat,
wind directions and other driving condi-
tions. The display may differ from the ac-
tual ambient temperature or the tempera-
ture displayed on various signs or
billboards.

∙ Do not attempt to top off the fuel tank
af ter the fuel pump nozzle shuts off
automatically. Continued refueling
may cause fuel overflow, resulting in
fuel spray and possibly a fire.
∙ Use only an original equipment type
fuel-filler cap as a replacement. It has
a built-in safety valve needed for
proper operation of the fuel system
and emission control system. An in-
correct cap can result in a serious mal-
function and possible injury. It could
also cause the
Malfunction Indi-
cator Light (MIL) to come on.
∙ Never pour fuel into the throttle body
to attempt to start your vehicle.
∙ Do not fill a portable fuel container in
the vehicle or trailer. Static electricity
can cause an explosion of flammable
liquid, vapor or gas in any vehicle or
trailer. To reduce the risk of serious
injury or death when filling portable
fuel containers:
– Always place the container on the
ground when filling.
– Do not use electronic devices when
filling.– Keep the pump nozzle in contact
with the container while you are
filling it.
– Use only approved portable fuel
containers for flammable liquid.
CAUTION
∙ Do not use a fuel containing more
than 15% ethanol in your vehicle. For
additional information, refer to “Fuel
Recommendation” in the “Technical
and consumer information” section of
this manual.
∙ The LOOSE FUEL CAP warning will ap-
pear if the fuel-filler cap is not prop-
erly tightened. It may take a few driv-
ing trips for the message to be
displayed. Failure to tighten the fuel-
filler cap properly af ter the LOOSE
FUEL CAP warning appears may cause
the
Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL) to illuminate.∙ Failure to tighten the fuel-filler cap
properly may cause the
Mal-
function Indicator Light (MIL) to illumi-
nate. If the
light illuminates be-
cause 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 your vehicle inspected. It is rec-
ommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
∙ For additional information, refer to
“Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)” in
the “Instruments and Controls” sec-
tion in this manual.
∙ If fuel is spilled on the vehicle body,
flush it away with water to avoid paint
damage.
NOTE:
Changing ignition switch status during
the refueling process may cause a delay
in fuel gauge response.
