(See “Engine oil” (P.8-6).)
. If the gauge needle does not
move with the proper amount of
engine oil, have the vehicle
checked. It is recommended you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this
service. Continued vehicle opera-
tion in such a condition could
cause serious damage to the en-
gine.

VOLTMETER
When the ignition switch is placed in the
ON position, the volt meter indicates the
battery voltage. When the engine is run-
ning, it indicates the generator voltage.
While cranking the engine, the volt drop
below the normal range. If the needle is
not in the normal range (10.5 to 15.5 volt)
while the engine is running, it may
indicate that the charging system is not
functioning properly. Have the system
checked. It is recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
METER/RING ILLUMINATION AND
NEEDLE SWEEP
The ring illumination surrounding meters
and gauges illuminates when the driver’s
door is closed after getting into the
vehicle with the Intelligent Key carried in.
When the engine is started, the indicator
needles will sweep in the speedometer
and tachometer and the ring illumination
will be brightened gradually. This function
can be turned off. (See “Trip computer”
(P.2-28).)

WARNING LIGHTS, INDICATOR
LIGHTS AND AUDIBLE REMINDERS

CHECKING LIGHTS
With all doors closed, apply the parking
brake, fasten the seat belts and place the
ignition switch in the ON position without
starting the engine. The following lights (if
so equipped) will come on:
,or,,,,,
The following lights (if so equipped) will
come on briefly and then go off:
,or,,,,,,,,
If any light does not come on or operates
in a way other than described, it may
indicate a burned-out bulb and/or a
system malfunction. It is recommended
you have the system checked by a
NISSAN dealer.
Some indicators and warnings are also
displayed on the vehicle information dis-
play between the speedometer and tach-
ometer. (See “Vehicle information display”
(P.2-20).)
WARNING LIGHTS
orAnti-lock Braking Sys-
tem (ABS) warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the Anti-lock Braking System
(ABS) warning light illuminates and then
turns off. This indicates the ABS is opera-
tional.
If the ABS warning light illuminates while
the engine is running, or while driving, it
may indicate the ABS is not functioning
properly. Have the system checked. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.
If an ABS malfunction occurs, the anti-
lock function is turned off. The brake
system then operates normally, but with-
out anti-lock assistance. (See “Brake sys-
tem” (P.5-130).)
Automatic Emergency Braking
(AEB) system warning light
This light comes on when the ignition
switch is placed in the ON position. It
turns off after the engine is started.
This light illuminates when the Automatic
Emergency Braking (AEB) system is set to
OFF on the center display.
If the light illuminates when the AEB system is ON, it may indicate that the
system is unavailable. See “Automatic
Emergency Braking (AEB)” (P.5-98) for
more details.
Automatic Transmission (AT)
check warning light
When the ignition switch is placed in the
ON position, the light comes on for 2
seconds. If the light comes on at any
other time, it may indicate the transmis-
sion is not functioning properly. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN dealer
to check and repair the transmission.
Automatic Transmission (AT)
oil temperature warning light
This light illuminates when the Automatic
Transmission (AT) oil temperature is too
high. If the light illuminates while driving,
reduce the vehicle speed as soon as
safely possible until the light turns off.
CAUTION
Continued vehicle operation when
the AT oil temperature warning light
is on may damage the AT.
Instruments and controls2-11

WARNING
.Your brake system may not be
working properly if the warning
light is on. Driving could be dan-
gerous. If you judge it to be safe,
drive carefully to the nearest
service station for repairs. Other-
wise, have your vehicle towed
because driving it could be dan-
gerous.
. Pressing the brake pedal with the
engine stopped and/or low brake
fluid level may increase your
stopping distance and braking
will require greater pedal effort
as well as 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 you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this
service.
Charge warning light
If the light comes on while the engine is
running, it may indicate the charging
system is not functioning properly. Turn
the engine off and check the alternator
belt. If the belt is loose, broken, missing or
if the light remains on, have your vehicle
serviced immediately. It is recommended
you visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
CAUTION
Do not continue driving if the alter-
nator belt is loose, broken or miss-
ing.
Intelligent Distance Control (I-
DC) system warning light (orange; if
so equipped)
This light comes on if there is a malfunc-
tion in the Intelligent Distance Control (I-
DC) system.
If the warning light illuminates, park the
vehicle in a safe place. Turn the engine off,
restart the engine, resume driving and
turn on the I-DC system again.
If it is not possible to turn on the system
or the warning light stays on, it may indicate that the system is malfunction-
ing. Although the vehicle is still drive-
able under normal conditions, have the
vehicle checked. It is recommended you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
See “Intelligent Distance Control (I-DC)”
(P.5-85).
Engine oil pressure warning
light
This light warns of low engine oil pres-
sure. If the light flickers or comes on
during normal driving, pull off the road in
a safe area, stop the engine immediately
and call a NISSAN dealer or other author-
ized 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.
(See “Engine oil” (P.8-6).)
CAUTION
Running the engine with the engine
oil pressure warning light on could
cause serious damage to the engine
almost immediately. Such damage is
not covered by warranty. Turn off the
engine as soon as it is safe to do so.

shift lever is moved from the D (Drive) or R
(Reverse) position to P (Park) position, and
the driver exits the vehicle. This message
alerts the driver, after a period of time, to
check for items in the rear seat after the
audible alert has been provided.
NOTE:
This rear door alert system is disabled
until a driver enables it using the rear
door alert switch.

MAINTENANCE INDICATORS
1. Engine oil replacement indicator
This indicator appears when the custo-
mer set time comes for changing the
engine oil. You can set or reset the
distance for changing the engine oil.
(See “Trip computer” (P.2-28).)
2. Oil filter replacement indicator
This indicator appears when the custo-
mer set time comes for replacing the oil
filter. You can set or reset the distance for
replacing the oil filter. (See “Trip compu-
ter” (P.2-28).)
3. Tire replacement indicator
This indicator appears when the custo-
mer set distance comes for replacing
tires. You can set or reset the distance
for replacing tires. (See “Trip computer”
(P.2-28).)
WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not
a substitute for regular tire checks,
including tire pressure checks. See
“Changing wheels and tires” (P.8-37).
Many factors including tire inflation,
alignment, driving habits and road
conditions affect tire wear and when

tires should be replaced. Setting the
tire replacement indicator for a cer-
tain driving distance does not mean
your tires will last that long. Use the
tire replacement indicator as a guide
only and always perform regular tire
checks. Failure to perform regular
tire checks, including tire pressure
checks could result in tire failure.
Serious vehicle damage could occur
and may lead to a collision, which
could result in serious personal in-
jury or death.
4. “OTHER” indicator
This indicator appears when the custo-
mer set time comes for replacing items
other than the engine oil, oil filter and
tires. You can set or reset the distance for
replacing the items. (See “Trip computer”
(P.2-28).)
More maintenance reminders are also
available on the center display. (See
NissanConnect® Owner’s Manual.)
