ENGINE OIL TEMPERATURE GAUGE
Performance driving patterns or extended driving

During normal vehicle operation, oil temperatures
will be below 280°F (138°C). If the engine oil
temperature gauge

above while driving, reduce engine speed (RPM) and drive at a reduced vehicle speed.

When the engine oil temperature is high, the engine protection mode, whic\
h helps reduce
the chance of engine damage, may activate and automatically decrease engine p\
ower.
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)”, the “Maintenance and do-it-yourself

AUTOMATIC POWER WINDOWS
Your power windows have an automatic adjusting
function to ensure windows close completely to
help seal against wind noise and weather leaks.

When the front doors are opened, the windows
automatically lower slightly to avoid contact
between the windows and the side roof panels.

If your vehicle’s battery has been discharged
or disconnected, the power window automatic
function will not operate.

Refer to your Owner’s Manual for information on how to initialize your power window system.

If the power window functions do not operate properly after initializing\
the system, have
your vehicle checked by a NISSAN dealer.
