Four-Wheel Drive (4WD) warn-
ing light (4WD models)
Thewarning light comes on when the
ignition switch is placed in the ON posi-
tion. It turns off soon after the engine is
started.
If the 4WD system malfunctions, or the
diameter of the front and the rear wheels
are different, the warning light will either
remain illuminated or blink. (See “NISSAN
all-mode 4WD®” (P.5-121).)
CAUTION
. If the warning light comes on
while driving there may be a
malfunction in the 4WD system.
Reduce the vehicle speed and
have your vehicle checked as
soon as possible. It is recom-
mended you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.
. If the 4WD warning light turns on
when driving on dry or hard
surfaced roads:
— in the 4H(I) position, shift the
4WD shift switch to AUTO
— in the 4L(O) position, stop the vehicle and shift the transmis- sion shift lever to the N (Neu-
tral) position and shift the
4WD shift switch to AUTO
. If the warning light is still on after
the above operations, have your
vehicle checked as soon as pos-
sible. It is recommended you visit
a NISSAN dealer for this service.
Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC)
system warning light (orange)
This light comes on if there is a malfunc-
tion in the Intelligent Cruise Control (ICC)
system.
If the warning light comes on, park the
vehicle in a safe place. Turn the engine off,
restart the engine, resume driving and set
the ICC system again.
If it is not possible to set the system or
the indicator stays on, it may indicate
that the system is malfunctioning.
Although the vehicle is still driveable
under normal conditions, have the ve-
hicle checked. It is recommended you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
Intelligent Key warning light
After the ignition switch is placed in the
ON position, this light comes on for about
2 seconds and then turns off.
This light warns of a malfunction with the
Intelligent Key system.
If the light comes on while the engine is
stopped, it may be impossible to start the
engine. If the light comes on while the
engine is running, you can drive the
vehicle. However in these cases, have
the system checked as soon as possible.
It is recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
indicator light (orange; if so
equipped)
When the ignition switch is placed in the
ON position, the light will come on in
orange, turn green, and then turn off. This
indicates that the Lane Departure Warn-
ing (LDW) and Intelligent Lane Interven-
tion (I-LI) systems are operational.
While the LDW and/or I-LI system is on,
the light will blink in orange and a
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.

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.

warnings. When a brake pad requires
replacement, it will make a high pitched
scraping sound when the vehicle is in
motion. This scraping sound will first
occur only when the brake pedal is
depressed. After more wear of the brake
pad, the sound will always be heard even
if the brake pedal is not depressed. Have
the brakes checked as soon as possible if
the warning sound is heard.
