For vehicles equipped with a trip computer,
pressing the change/reset button
changes the display as follows:
Trip
→Trip→ Distance to
Empty →Average speed →Average fuel
consumption →Journey time →Trip
For additional information, refer to “Trip
computer” in this section.
Resetting the trip odometer
Pressing the change/reset button for
more than 1 second resets the currently
displayed trip odometer to zero.
Loose fuel cap warning message
Press the change/reset buttonAfor more
than 1 second to reset the LOOSE FUEL CAP
warning message af ter the fuel cap has
been tightened. For additional information,
refer to “Fuel-filler cap” in the “Pre-driving
checks and adjustments” section of this
manual.
Check tire pressure warning
message
The CHECK TIRE PRES (pressure) warning
message is displayed when the low tire
pressure warning light is illuminated and
low tire pressure is detected. Check and
adjust the tire pressure to the recom-
mended COLD tire pressure shown on the
Tire and Loading Information label. The
CHECK TIRE PRES (pressure) warning mes-
sage turns off when the low tire pressure
warning light turns off.

CAUTION
If the gauge indicates coolant tempera-
ture near the hot (H) end of the normal
range, reduce vehicle speed to decrease
temperature. If the gauge is over the
normal range, stop the vehicle as soon
as safely possible. If the engine is over-
heated, continued operation of the ve-
hicle may seriously damage the engine.
For additional information, refer 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.
The gauge may move slightly during brak-
ing, turning, acceleration, or going up or
down hills.
The gauge needle returns to 0 (Empty) af-
ter the ignition switch is placed in the OFF
position.
The low fuel warning light comes on when
the amount of fuel in the tank is getting low.
Refill the fuel tank before the gauge reg-
isters 0 (Empty). The
indicates that the fuel-filler
door is located on the driver’s side of the
vehicle.
CAUTION
∙ If the vehicle runs out of fuel, theMalfunction Indicator Light (MIL) may
come on. Refuel as soon as possible.
Af ter a few driving trips, the
light
should turn off. If the light remains on
af ter a few driving trips, have the ve-
hicle inspected. It is recommended
that you visit a NISSAN dealer for this
service.
∙ For additional information, refer to “Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)” in
this section.
DISTANCE TO EMPTY (DTE)
Displays the estimated distance the ve-
hicle can be driven before refueling. The
value is calculated based on recent fuel
economy, the amount of fuel remaining in
the fuel tank, and the actual fuel consump-
tion.
Changes in driving patterns or conditions
can cause the DTE value to vary. As a result,
the value displayed may differ from the ac-
tual distance that can be driven.
LIC0740
Instruments and controls2-7

DTE display will change to “---” when the
fuel level in the tank is getting low, prior to
the fuel gauge reaching 0 (Empty).
NOTE:∙ The DTE value af ter refill is estimated
based on recent fuel economy and
amount of fuel added.
∙ If a small amount of fuel is added, or
the ignition is on during refueling, the
display may not be updated.
∙ Conditions that affect the fuel
economy will also affect the esti-
mated DTE value (city/highway driv-
ing, idle time, remote start time, ter-
rain, seasonal weather, added vehicle
weight, added deflectors, roof racks,
etc.).
ENGINE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE (if
so equipped)
The gauge indicates the engine lubrication
system oil pressure while the engine is run-
ning. The needle should be in the middle of
the gauge when the engine is running.
CAUTION
∙ This gauge is not designed to indicate
low engine oil level. Use the dipstick to
check the oil level. For additional in-
formation, refer to “Engine oil” in the
“Do-it-yourself ” section of this
manual.
∙ If the gauge needle does not move with the proper amount of engine oil,
have the vehicle checked. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service. Continued vehicle op-
eration in such a condition could
cause serious damage to the engine.

VOLTMETER (if so equipped)
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the voltmeter indicates the bat-
tery voltage. When the engine is running, it
indicates the generator voltage.
While cranking the engine, the volts drop
below the normal range. If the needle is not
in the normal range (11 - 15 volts)
1while
the engine is running, it may indicate that
the charging system is not functioning
properly. Have the system checked. It is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
TRIP COMPUTER (if so equipped)
The display of the trip computer is situated
in the speedometer display. When the igni-
tion switch is placed in the ON position, the
display scrolls all the modes of the trip
computer and then shows the mode cho-
sen before the ignition switch was placed
in the OFF position.
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, modes of the trip computer can
be selected by pressing the change/reset
button. The following modes can be se-
lected:
Average fuel consumption (Mpg
or l/100km)
The average fuel consumption mode
shows the average fuel consumption since
the last reset. Resetting is done by pressing
the change/reset button for more than ap-
proximately 1 second. The display is up-
dated every 30 seconds. At about the first
1/3 miles (500 m) af ter a reset, the display
shows (----).
Average speed (mph or km/h)
The average speed mode shows the aver-
age vehicle speed since last reset. Reset-
ting is done by pressing the change/reset
button for more than approximately 1 sec-
ond. The display is updated every 30 sec-
onds. The first 30 seconds af ter a reset, the
display shows (----).
Journey time
The journey time mode shows the time
since the last reset. The displayed time can
be reset by pressing the change/reset but-
ton for more than approximately 1 second.
