COCKPIT
Low tire pressure warning
light
Your vehicle is equipped with a Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) that
monitors the tire pressure of all tires
except the spare.
The low tire pressure warning light warns
of low tire pressure or indicates that the
TPMS is not functioning properly.
After the ignition switch is pushed ON,
this light illuminates for about 1 second
and turns off.
Low tire pressure warning:
If the vehicle is being driven with low tire
pressure, the warning light will illuminate.
A CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning also
appears in the vehicle information dis-
play.
When the low tire pressure warning light
illuminates, you should stop and adjust
the tire pressure to the recommended
COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and
Loading Information label. The low tire
pressure warning light does not automa-
tically turn off when the tire pressure is
adjusted. After the tire is inflated to the
recommended pressure, the vehicle must
be driven at speeds above 16 MPH (25
km/h) to activate the TPMS and turn off
the low tire pressure warning light. Use a tire pressure gauge to check the tire
pressure.
The CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning ap-
pears each time the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position as long as the
low tire pressure warning light remains
illuminated.
For additional information, see “Vehicle
information display” (P.2-19), “Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring System (TPMS)” (P.5-3)
and “Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)” (P.6-3).
TPMS malfunction:
If the TPMS is not functioning properly,
the low tire pressure warning light will
flash for approximately 1 minute when the
ignition switch is pushed ON. The light will
remain on after the 1 minute. Have the
system checked. It is recommended you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
The CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning does
not appear if the low tire pressure warn-
ing light illuminates to indicate a TPMS
malfunction.
For additional information, see “Tire Pres-
sure Monitoring System (TPMS)” (P.5-3).
WARNING
.
If the light does not illuminate
with the ignition switch pushed
ON, have the vehicle checked as
soon as possible. It is recom-
mended you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.
. If the light illuminates while driv-
ing, avoid sudden steering man-
euvers or abrupt braking, reduce
vehicle speed, pull off the road to
a safe location and stop the
vehicle as soon as possible. Driv-
ing with under-inflated tires may
permanently damage the tires
and increase the likelihood of tire
failure. Serious vehicle damage
could occur and may lead to an
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.
Instruments and controls2-13
signal will automatically flash three times.
Choose the appropriate method to signal
a lane change based on road and traffic
conditions.

Make sure the indicator light on the
instrument panel illuminates.
To turn off the rear fog light, turn the fog
light switch to the
position again.
Make sure the indicator light on the
instrument panel turns off.

WARNING
.Do not adjust the steering wheel
while driving. You could lose con-
trol of your vehicle and cause an
accident.
. Do not adjust the steering wheel
any closer to you than is neces-
sary for proper steering opera-
tion and comfort. The driver’s air
bag inflates with great force. If
you are unrestrained, leaning for-
ward, sitting sideways or out of
position in any way, you are at
greater risk of injury or death in a
crash. You may also receive ser-
ious or fatal injuries from the air
bag if you are up against it when
it inflates. Always sit back against
the seatback and as far away as
practical from the steering wheel.
Always use the seat belts.

HOW TO READ DISPLAYED LINES
Guiding lines which indicate the vehicle
width and distances to objects with
reference to the bumper line
are
displayed on the monitor.
Distance guide lines:
Indicate distances from the bumper.
. Red line
: approx. 1.5 ft (0.5 m)
. Yellow line
: approx. 3 ft (1 m)
. Green line
: approx. 7 ft (2 m)
. Green line
(if so equipped): approx.
10 ft (3 m)
Vehicle width guide lines
:
Indicate the vehicle width when backing
up. Predictive course lines
:
Indicate the predictive course when back-
ing up. The predictive course lines will be
displayed on the monitor when the shift
lever is in the R (Reverse) position and the
steering wheel is turned. The predictive
course lines will move depending on how
much the steering wheel is turned and
will not be displayed while the steering
wheel is in the neutral position.
The vehicle width guide lines and the
width of the predictive course lines are
wider than the actual width and course.
HOW TO PARK WITH PREDICTIVE
COURSE LINES
WARNING
. If the tires are replaced with
different sized tires, the predic-
tive course line may not be dis-
played correctly.
. On a snow-covered or slippery
road, there may be a difference
between the predictive course
line and the actual course line.
. The displayed lines will appear
slightly off to the right because
the rear view camera is not in-
stalled in the rear center of the vehicle.
