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

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

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

Operation
The MIL will come on in one of two ways:∙ MIL on steady — An emission control system malfunction has been de-
tected. Check the fuel-filler cap if the
LOOSE FUEL CAP warning appears in
the trip computer. 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 af ter a
few driving trips. If the
light does
not turn off af ter a few driving trips, have
the vehicle inspected. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service. You do not need to have
your vehicle towed to the dealer.
∙
MIL blinking — An engine misfire has been
detected which may damage the emis-
sion control system. To reduce or avoid
emission control system damage:
– Do not drive at speeds above 45 mph (72 km/h).
– Avoid hard acceleration or decelera- tion.
– Avoid steep uphill grades.
– If possible, reduce the amount of cargo being hauled or towed. The MIL may stop blinking and come on
steady. Have the vehicle inspected. It is rec-
ommended that 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, reduced
fuel economy, and possible damage to
the emission control system.
Overdrive OFF indicator
light (if so equipped)
This light comes on when the overdrive
function is off.
The automatic transmission overdrive
function is controlled by the overdrive OFF
switch.
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the light comes on for about
2 seconds. If the light comes on at any
other time, it may indicate the automatic
transmission system is not functioning
properly. Have the system checked. It is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service. For additional information, refer to “Driving
the vehicle” in the “Starting and driving” sec-
tion of this manual.
Security indicator light (if
so equipped)
This light blinks when the ignition switch is
in the OFF, LOCK or ACC position. This func-
tion indicates the security systems
equipped on the vehicle are operational.
For additional information, refer to “Security
systems” in this section.
SET indicator 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.
Slip indicator light
This indicator light will blink when the Ve-
hicle Dynamic Control (VDC) system is op-
erating, thus alerting the driver to the fact
that the road surface is slippery and the
vehicle is nearing its traction limits.
