INSTRUMENT PANEL

If any of the following conditions occur,
the front air bag, side air bag and curtain
air bag systems and/or pretensioner
system need 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 Systems and/or the
pretensioner seat belt may not function
properly.
For additional information, see “Supple-
mental restraint system” (P.1-30).
WARNING
If the supplemental air bag warning
light is on, it could mean that the
front air bag, side air bag and curtain
air bag systems and/or pretensioner
system 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 system may not be
functioning properly. Have the system
checked. It is recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service. If a mal-
function 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.5-30) of this manual.
INDICATOR LIGHTS
Cruise indicator light
Cruise main switch indicator:
This light illuminates when the cruise
control main switch is pushed. The light
turns off when the main switch is pushed
again. When the cruise main switch in-
dicator light illuminates, the cruise control
system is operational. (See “Cruise con-
trol” (P.5-22).)
Cruise malfunction:
If the cruise indicator 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 you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service. (See “Cruise control” (P.5-
22).)
Exterior light indicator
This indicator illuminates when the head-
light switch is turned to the AUTO,orposition and the front parking lights,
instrument panel lights, rear combination
lights, license plate lights or headlights
are on. The indicator turns off when these
lights are turned off.
Instruments and controls2-15

2-16Instruments and controls
Front passenger air bag sta-
tus light
The front passenger air bag status light
(), located on the center of the instru-
ment panel, will be lit and the passenger
front air bag will be OFF depending on
how the front passenger seat is being
used.
For front passenger air bag status light
operation, see “NISSAN Advanced Air Bag
System (front seats)” (P.1-36) of this man-
ual.
High beam indicator light
This light comes on when the headlight
high beam is on and goes out when the
low beam is selected.
Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL)
If the malfunction indicator light comes
on steady or blinks while the engine is
running, it may indicate a potential emis-
sion control malfunction.
The malfunction indicator light 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 US gallons (11.4 liters) of fuel in the fuel tank.
After a few driving trips, the
light
should turn off if no other potential
emission control system malfunction ex-
ists.
If this indicator light remains on for 20
seconds and then blinks for 10 seconds
when the engine is not running, it indi-
cates that the vehicle is not ready for an
emission control system inspection/
maintenance test. (See “Readiness for
Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) test” (P.10-
25).)
Operation:
The malfunction indicator light will come
on in one of two ways:
. Malfunction indicator light on steady
— An emission control system mal-
function has been detected. Check
the fuel-filler cap if the LOOSE FUEL
CAP warning appears in the vehicle
information 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 after a few driving trips. If the
light does not turn off after a few
driving trips, have the vehicle in-
spected. It is recommended you visit
a NISSAN dealer for this service. You
do not need to have your vehicle towed to the dealer.
. Malfunction indicator light blinking —
An engine misfire has been detected
which may damage the emission
control system.
To reduce or avoid emission control
system damage:
1) Do not drive at speeds above 45
MPH (72 km/h).
2) Avoid hard acceleration or decel- eration.
3) Avoid steep uphill grades.
4) If possible, reduce the amount of cargo being hauled or towed.
The malfunction indicator light may
stop blinking and remain on.
Have the vehicle inspected. It is re-
commended you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service. You do not need to
have your vehicle towed to the dealer.
CAUTION
Continued vehicle operation without
having the emission control system
checked and repaired as necessary
could lead to poor driveability, re-
duced fuel economy, and possible
damage to the emission control sys-
tem.

MAINTENANCE INDICATORS
1. Engine oil replacement indicator
This indicator appears when the set time
comes for changing the engine oil. You
can set or reset the distance for changing
the engine oil. (See “Trip computer” (P.2-
23).)
2. Oil filter replacement indicator
This indicator appears when the set time
comes for replacing the oil filter. You can
set or reset the distance for replacing the
oil filter. (See “Trip computer” (P.2-23).)
3. Tire replacement indicator
This indicator appears when the set time
comes for replacing tires. You can set or
reset the distance for replacing tires. (See
“Trip computer” (P.2-23).)
WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not
a substitute for regular tire checks,
including tire pressure checks. See
“Changing wheels and tires” (P.8-34).
Many factors including tire inflation,
alignment, driving habits and road
conditions affect tire wear and when
tires should be replaced. Setting the
tire replacement indicator for a cer-tain driving distance does not mean
your tires will last that long. Use the
tire replacement indicator as a guide
only and always perform regular tire
checks. Failure to perform regular
tire checks, including tire pressure
checks could result in tire failure.
Serious vehicle damage could occur
and may lead to a collision, which
could result in serious personal in-
jury or death.
4. “OTHER” indicator
This indicator appears when the set time
comes for replacing items other than the
engine oil, oil filter and tires. You can set
or reset the distance for replacing the
items. (See “Trip computer” (P.2-23).)

More maintenance reminders are also
available on the center display. (See
“How to use INFO button” (P.4-8).)WAC0051X
