ATP warning light is on. (Before shif t-
ing the 4WD switch into the 4LO posi-
tion, move the shif t lever into the N
(Neutral) position once, shif t the shif t
lever into P (Park) again and make
sure the ATP warning light is off.)
If the 4WD mode indicator is off or the ATP
warning light is on, this indicates that the
automatic transmission P (Park) position
will not function and could result in the ve-
hicle moving unexpectedly, causing seri-
ous personal injury or property damage.
Always set the parking brake. For additional
information, see “Using 4–Wheel Drive
(4WD) (P. 5-109).
This light indicates that the automatic
transmission parking function is not en-
gaged. If the transfer control is not secured

level. If the light comes on while the engine
is running with the parking brake not ap-
plied, stop the vehicle and perform the
following:
1. Check the brake fluid level. Add brake fluid as necessary. For additional infor-
mation, see “Brake fluid” (P. 8-12).
2. If the brake fluid level is correct, have the warning system checked. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer

the nearest service station for re-
pairs. 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 stop-
ping distance and braking will re-
quire 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 that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.

SECURITY SYSTEMS
2-34Instruments and controls
The system helps deter vehicle thef t but
cannot prevent it, nor can it prevent the
thef t of interior or exterior vehicle compo-
nents in all situations. Always secure your
vehicle even if parking for a brief period.
Never leave your keys in the vehicle, and
always lock the vehicle when unattended.
Be aware of your surroundings, and park in
secure, well-lit areas whenever possible.
Many devices offering additional protec-
tion, such as component locks, identifica-
tion markers, and tracking systems, are
available at auto supply stores and spe-
cialty shops. A NISSAN dealer may also offer
such equipment. Check with your insur-
ance company to see if you may be eligible
for discounts for various thef t protection
features.
How to arm the vehicle security
system
1. Close all windows.(The system can be
armed even if the windows are open.)
2. Remove the Intelligent Key from the vehicle. 3. Close all doors. Lock all doors. The doors
can be locked with the key, power door
lock switch (if the door is opened, locked
and then closed), or with the key fob.
Key fob operation:
• Press the
button on the key fob. All
doors lock. The hazard lights flash twice
and the horn beeps once to indicate all
doors are locked.
• When the
button is pressed with all
doors locked, the hazard lights flash twice
and the horn beeps once as a reminder
that the doors are already locked.
The horn may or may not beep.
4. Confirm that the
indicator light
comes on. Theindicator light
stays on for about 30 seconds. The ve-
hicle security system is now pre-armed.
Af ter about 30 seconds the vehicle se-
curity system automatically shif ts into
the armed phase. The
indicator
light begins to flash once every 3 sec-
onds. If, during the 30-second pre-arm
time period, the driver's door is unlocked
by the key or the key fob or the ignition
switch is placed in ACC or ON position,
the system will not arm. •
If the key is turned slowly when locking
the driver's door, the system may not
arm. Furthermore, if the key is turned
beyond the vertical position toward
the unlock position the system may be
disarmed when the key is removed. If
the indicator light fails to glow for a
period of time, unlock the door once
and lock it again.
• Even when the driver and/or passen-
gers are in the vehicle, the system will
arm with all doors closed and locked
with the ignition switch placed in the
OFF position.
Vehicle security system activation
The vehicle security system will give the
following alarm:
• The headlights blink and the horn sounds intermittently.
• The alarm automatically turns off af ter a period of time. However, the alarm reacti-
vates if the vehicle is tampered with
again. The alarm can be shut off by un-
locking the driver's door with the key or
by pressing the
button on the key
fob.

UNDER-SEAT STORAGE BINS
WARNING
• Properly secure all cargo with ropes
or straps to help prevent it from slid-
ing or shif ting. In a sudden stop or
collision, unsecured cargo could
cause personal injury.
• The cargo restrained in the under-
seat storage bins must not exceed
the weight limits listed below or the
bins may not stay secured. In a sud-
den stop or collision, the unsecured
bins could cause personal injury.
King Cab® model: 16 lbs. (7.25 kg)
Crew Cab model Driver’s side: 16 lbs. (7.25 kg)
Passenger’s side: 25 lbs. (11.33 kg)
• If the under-seat storage bins are re-
moved for any reason, they should be
securely stored to prevent them from
causing injury to passengers or dam-
age to the vehicle in case of sudden
braking or an accident.
• Do not place sharp objects in the
under-seat storage bins. Such ob-
jects may become dangerous projec-
tiles and cause injury when the ve-
hicle is moving or if the vehicle is
involved in a collision.

WARNING
• Do not exceed maximum ladder rack
load capacity.
• Exceeding the ladder rack capacity
can change the vehicle’s center of
gravity and adversely affect the han-
dling and stability of the vehicle re-
sulting in an accident causing death
or serious injury.
• When loading the ladder rack, evenly
distribute the load as well as main-
tain a low center of gravity.
• Do not use your rack off road, unless
otherwise noted as an “off road
rated” product.
• Do not allow the ladder rack or load
to obstruct the vehicle’s exterior
lighting.
• Be careful that your vehicle does not
exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight Rat-
ing (GVWR) or its Gross Axle Weight
Rating (GAWR front & rear).
• Properly secure all cargo with ropes
or straps to help it prevent from slid-
ing or shif ting. •
Take extra caution when the vehicle
has load on the Ladder rack as this
raises the center of gravity of the ve-
hicle and may cause the vehicle to
roll over when there is a loss of ve-
hicle control.
