AUXILIARY GAUGES (if so
equipped)
1. Exhaust temperature gauge (if soequipped)
2. Automatic Transmission fluid tem- perature gauge
3. Turbo meter (if so equipped)
4. Engine oil pressure gauge
5. Engine oil temperature gauge
6. Voltmeter Exhaust temperature gauge (if so
equipped)
For additional information, refer to the Ti-
tan Diesel Owner’s Manual.
Automatic Transmission fluid tempera-
ture gauge
This gauge indicates the temperature of
the automatic transmission fluid.
CAUTION
∙ This gauge is not designed to indicate
low automatic transmission fluid
level. Use the dipstick to check the
fluid level. For additional information,
refer to “6- speed automatic trans-
mission fluid” in the “Do-it-yourself ”
section of this manual.
∙ If the gauge indicates automatic transmission fluid temperature over
the normal range, stop the vehicle as
soon as safely possible. It is recom-
mended that you have the vehicle
checked by a NISSAN dealer. Contin-
ued operation of the vehicle may seri-
ously damage the transmission.
Turbo meter (if so equipped)
For additional information, refer to the Ti-
tan Diesel Owner’s Manual.
Engine oil pressure gauge
The gauge indicates the engine lubrication
system oil pressure while the engine is run-
ning. The bar should be in the middle of the
gauge when the engine is running.

CAUTION
∙ This gauge is not designed to indicatelow 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,
it is recommended that you have the
vehicle checked by a NISSAN dealer.
Continued vehicle operation in such a
condition could cause serious dam-
age to the engine.
Engine oil temperature gauge
This gauge measures the temperature of
the engine oil.
Voltmeter
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 range is not
within the normal range (11 – 15 volts) while
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.
DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID (DEF)
LEVEL (if so equipped)
This gauge measures the DEF level re-
maining in the vehicle. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Fuel and refueling” in the
Titan Diesel Owner’s Manual.

WARNING
∙ Your brake system may not be work-ing properly if the warning light is on.
Driving could be dangerous. If you
judge it to be safe, drive carefully to
the nearest service station for repairs.
Otherwise, have your vehicle towed
because driving it could be
dangerous.
∙ Pressing the brake pedal with the en- gine stopped and/or a low brake fluid
level may increase your stopping dis-
tance and braking will require greater
pedal effort and pedal travel.
∙ If the brake fluid level is below the MINIMUM or MIN mark on the brake
fluid reservoir, do not drive until the
brake system has been checked. It is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
Charge warning light
If this light comes on while the engine is
running, it may indicate the charging sys-
tem is not functioning properly. Turn the
engine off and check the generator belt. If
the belt is loose, broken, missing, or if the
light remains on, have the system checked. It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
CAUTION
∙ Do not ground electrical accessories
directly to the battery terminal. Doing
so will bypass the variable voltage
control system (if so equipped) and
the vehicle battery may not charge
completely. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Variable voltage control
system” in the “Do-it-yourself ” sec-
tion of this manual.
∙ Do not continue driving if the genera- tor belt is loose, broken or missing.
Diesel Particulate Filter
(DPF) warning light (if so
equipped)
For additional information, refer to the Ti-
tan Diesel Owner’s Manual.
Door open warning light
This light comes on when any of the doors
are not closed securely while the ignition
switch is in the ON position.
Driver seat belt warning light and chime
The light and chime remind you to fasten
your seat belt. The light illuminates when-
ever the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position and remains illuminated until the
driver’s seat belt is fastened. At the same
time, the chime sounds for about 6 sec-
onds unless the driver’s seat belt is se-
curely fastened.
For additional information, refer to “Seat
belts” in the “Safety—Seats, seat belts and
supplemental restraint system” section of
this manual.
Engine oil pressurewarning light
This light warns of low engine oil pressure. If
the light flickers or comes on during nor-
mal driving, pull off the road in a safe area,
stop the engine immediately,and call a
NISSAN dealer or other authorized repair
shop.
The engine oil pressure warning light is
not designed to indicate a low oil level.
Use the dipstick to check the oil level. For
additional information, refer to “Engine oil”
in the “Do-it-yourself ” section of this
manual.

Range XX miles
This warning illuminates to indicate the ap-
proximate distance remaining before the
fuel reaches 0 (Empty).
Low Fuel
This warning illuminates when the fuel level
in the fuel tank is getting low. Refuel as
soon as it is convenient, preferably before
the fuel gauge reaches 0 (Empty).There
will be a small reserve of fuel in the tank
when the fuel gauge needle reaches 0
(Empty).
Oil Level Low (For Diesel engines only)
If the Oil Level Low indicator is displayed,
the engine oil level is low. If the low level
reminder is displayed, check the level using
the engine oil dipstick.
CAUTION
The oil level should be checked regu-
larly using the engine oil dipstick. Oper-
ating with an insufficient amount of oil
can damage the engine and such dam-
age is not covered by the warranty. Low Oil Pressure Stop Vehicle (For Diesel
engines only)
This warning appears in the message area
of the vehicle information display if low oil
pressure is detected. This gauge is not de-
signed to indicate low oil level.
The low oil
pressure warning is not designed to indi-
cate a low oil level. Use the dipstick to
check the oil level. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Engine oil” in the “Do-it-
yourself ” section of this manual.
Oil Level Sensor Fault (For Diesel en-
gines only)
This warning appears in the message area
of the vehicle information display if the oil
level sensor malfunctions. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer to
have this system checked.
AT (Automatic Transmission) CHECK
If the AT Check warning appears while the
engine is running, or while driving, it may
indicate that the AT is not functioning prop-
erly and may need servicing. Have the sys-
tem checked, and if necessary, repaired
promptly. It is recommended that you visit
a NISSAN dealer for this service. AT (Automatic Transmission) Error: See
Owner’s Manual
If this message appears while the engine is
running, or while driving, it may indicate
that the AT is not functioning properly and
may need servicing. Have the system
checked, and if necessary, repaired
promptly. It is recommended that you visit
a NISSAN dealer for this service.
Tire Pressure Low - Add Air
This warning appears when the low tire
pressure warning light in the meter illumi-
nates and low tire pressure is detected. The
warning appears each time the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position as long
as the low tire pressure warning light re-
mains illuminated. If this warning appears,
stop the vehicle and adjust the tire pres-
sures of all four tires to the recommended
COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and
Loading Information label. For additional
information, refer to “Low tire pressure
warning light” in this section and “Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring System (TPMS)” in the
“Starting and driving” section of this
manual.
