Instruments and controls2-3
∙ If the light illuminates while driving,avoid sudden steering maneuvers or
abrupt braking, reduce vehicle speed,
pull off the road to a safe location and
stop the vehicle as soon as possible.
Driving with under-inflated tires may
permanently damage the tires and in-
crease the likelihood of tire failure. Se-
rious vehicle damage could occur and
may lead to an accident and could re-
sult in serious personal injury or
death. Check the tire pressure for all
four tires. Adjust the tire pressure to
the recommended COLD tire pressure
shown on the Tire and Loading Infor-
mation label located in the driver’s
door opening to turn the low tire pres-
sure warning light off. If the light still
illuminates while driving af ter adjust-
ing 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 in-
flated, have the vehicle checked. It is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service. ∙ When replacing a wheel without the
TPMS such as the spare tire, the TPMS
will not function and the low tire pres-
sure warning light will flash for ap-
proximately 1 minute. The light will re-
main on af ter 1 minute. Have your
tires replaced and/or TPMS system
reset as soon as possible. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
for these services.
∙ Replacing tires with those not origi- nally specified by NISSAN could affect
the proper operation of the TPMS.
CAUTION
∙ The TPMS is not a substitute for theregular 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.
Master warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON posi-
tion, the master warning light illuminates if
any of the following are displayed on the
vehicle information display:
∙ No Key Detected
∙ Low fuel warning
∙ Low washer fluid warning
∙ Parking brake release warning
∙ Door open warning
∙ Loose Fuel Cap warning (if so equipped)
∙ Low tire pressure warning
∙ Shif t into Park warning
∙ Loose Fuel Cap warning
∙ Traffic Sign Recognition system fault (see owner’s manual) (if so equipped)
∙ Driver Attention Alert system fault (if so equipped)
∙ Push Engine Start Lock warning
∙ Incorrect Key warning
∙ I-Key System Fault
∙ CVT warning

3. Close all doors, hood and lif tgate. Lockall doors. The doors can be locked with
the Intelligent Key, door handle request
switch, power door lock switch or me-
chanical key (if so equipped).
Key fob operation:
4. Confirm that the
indicator light
comes on. The
indicator stays il-
luminated for a period of time indicat-
ing that the system is in the pre-armed
phase.
The
indicator light will blink every
3 seconds once the security system is
armed.
If during the pre-armed phase one of
the following occurs, the system will
not arm:
∙ Any door is unlocked with the me- chanical key (if so equipped).
∙ A door is opened with the release button with the Intelligent Key on
your person.
∙ The doors are unlocked using the un- lock button on the Intelligent Key.
∙ The ignition switch is placed in the ACC or ON position. ∙
Even when the driver and/or passen-
gers are in the vehicle, the system will
activate when all the doors, hood and
lif tgate are locked with the ignition
switch placed in the LOCK position.
When placing the ignition switch in
the ACC or ON position, the system
will be released.
Vehicle security system activation
The vehicle security system will give the
following alarm:
∙ The turn signals blink and the horn sounds intermittently.
∙ The alarm automatically turns off af ter a period of time. However, the alarm
reactivates if the vehicle is tampered
with again. The alarm can be shut off by
unlocking the driver’s door or lif tgate
with the key (if so equipped) or by press-
ing the
button on the Intelligent
Key.
The alarm is activated by:
∙ Opening the door or lif tgate without us- ing the key (if so equipped) or Intelligent
Key (even if the door is unlocked by re-
leasing the door inside lock switch).
How to stop an activated alarm
The alarm stops only by unlocking the driv-
er’s door or the lif tgate with the key (if so
equipped), pressing the
button on
the Intelligent Key, or pushing the request
switch on the driver’s or passenger’s door
with the Intelligent Key in range of the door
handle.

1. Pull the hood lock release handle1
located below the driver side instru-
ment panel until the hood springs up
slightly.
2. Locate the lever
2in between the
hood and grille and push the lever side-
ways with your fingertips and raise the
hood
3.
When closing the hood, lower the hood to
approximately 12 in (30 cm) above the latch
and release it. This allows proper engage-
ment of the hood latch.
WARNING
∙ Make sure the hood is completely closed and latched before driving.
Failure to do so could cause the hood
to fly open and result in an accident.
∙ If you see steam or smoke coming from the engine compartment, to
avoid injury do not open the hood.
WARNING
∙ Always be sure the lif tgate has beenclosed securely to prevent it from
opening while driving.
∙ Do not drive with the lif tgate open. This could allow dangerous exhaust
gases to be drawn into the vehicle. For
additional information, refer to “Ex-
haust gas (carbon monoxide)” in the
“Starting and driving” section of this
manual.
∙ To help avoid risk of injury or death through unintended operation of the
vehicle and or its systems, including
entrapment in windows or inadver-
tent door lock activation, do not leave
children, people who require the as-
sistance of others or pets unattended
in your vehicle. Additionally, the tem-
perature inside a closed vehicle on a
warm day can quickly become high
enough to cause a significant risk of
injury or death to people and pets.
∙ Always be sure that hands and feet are clear of the door frame to avoid
injury while closing the lif tgate.

Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-23
If the ABS warning light illuminates during
the self-test or while driving, have the ve-
hicle checked. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
Normal operation
The Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) oper-
ates at speeds above3-6mph(5-
10 km/h). The speed varies according to
road conditions.
When the ABS senses that one or more
wheels are close to locking up, the actuator
rapidly applies and releases hydraulic pres-
sure. This action is similar to pumping the
brakes very quickly. You may feel a pulsa-
tion in the brake pedal and hear a noise
from under the hood or feel a vibration
from the actuator when it is operating. This
is normal and indicates that the ABS is op-
erating properly. However, the pulsation
may indicate that road conditions are haz-
ardous and extra care is required while
driving.
BRAKE ASSIST
When the force applied to the brake pedal
exceeds a certain level, the Brake Assist is
activated generating greater braking force
than a conventional brake booster even
with light pedal force.
WARNING
The Brake Assist is only an aid to assist
braking operation and is not a collision
warning or avoidance device. It is the
driver’s responsibility to stay alert, drive
safely and be in control of the vehicle at
all times. The VDC system uses various sensors to
monitor driver inputs and vehicle motion.
Under certain driving conditions, the VDC
system helps to perform the following
functions:
∙ Controls brake pressure to reduce wheel slip on one slipping drive wheel
so power is transferred to a non-
slipping drive wheel on the same axle.
∙ Controls brake pressure and engine output to reduce drive wheel slip based
on vehicle speed (traction control func-
tion).
∙ Controls brake pressure at individual wheels and engine output to help the
driver maintain control of the vehicle in
the following conditions:
– Understeer (vehicle tends to not fol- low the steered path despite in-
creased steering input)
– Oversteer (vehicle tends to spin due to certain road or driving conditions)
The VDC system can help the driver to
maintain control of the vehicle, but it can-
not prevent loss of vehicle control in all driv-
ing situations.
