seconds after the ignition switch is placed
in the ON position, the system does not
activate the warning light for the front
passenger.
See “Seat belts” (P.1-20) for precautions on
seat belt usage.
Supplemental air bag warning
light
After placing the ignition switch in the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warn-
ing light will illuminate. The supplemental
air bag warning light will turn off after
about 7 seconds if the air bag and/or
pretensioner systems are operational.
If any of the following conditions occur,
the air bag and/or pretensioner systems
needs servicing.
. The supplemental air bag warning
light remains on after approximately
7 seconds.
. The supplemental air bag warning
light flashes intermittently.
. The supplemental air bag warning
light does not come on at all.
It is recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for these services.
Unless checked and repaired, the supple-
mental restraint system (air bag system)
and/or the pretensioners may not func- tion properly.
For additional information, see “Supple-
mental restraint system” (P.1-55).
WARNING
If the supplemental air bag warning
light is on, it could mean that the
front air bag, side air bag, curtain air
bag systems and/or pretensioner
systems will not operate in an acci-
dent. To help avoid injury to yourself
or others, have your vehicle checked.
It is recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)
warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC) warning light illuminates and then
turns off.
The light will blink when the VDC system
or the traction control system is operat-
ing, thus alerting the driver that the
vehicle is nearing its traction limits. The
road surface may be slippery.
When the VDC warning light illuminates
when the VDC system is turned on, this light alerts the driver to the fact that the
VDC system’s fail-safe mode is operating,
for example the VDC or hill start assist
system may not be functioning properly.
Have the system checked. It is recom-
mended you visit a NISSAN dealer for this
service. If a malfunction occurs in the
system, the VDC system function will be
canceled but the vehicle is still driveable.
For additional information, see “Vehicle
Dynamic Control (VDC) system” (P.5-138).
INDICATOR LIGHTS
Automatic Transmission (AT)
position indicator light
When the ignition switch is placed in the
ON position, the indicator shows the shift
lever position.
In the manual shift mode, when the
transmission does not shift to the se-
lected gear due to a transmission protec-
tion mode, the AT position indicator light
will blink and a buzzer will sound.
See “Automatic transmission” (P.5-18) for
further details.

Departure Warning (LDW) indicator light
(orange). (See “Lane Departure Warning
(LDW) indicator light” (P.2-14).)
For more details, see “Lane Departure
Warning (LDW)/Intelligent Lane Interven-
tion (I-LI)” (P.5-23).
Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL)
If the malfunction indicator light comes
on steady or blinks while the engine is
running, it may indicate a potential emis-
sion control malfunction.
The malfunction indicator light may also
come on steady if the fuel-filler cap is
loose or missing, or if the vehicle runs out
of fuel. Check to make sure the fuel-filler
cap is installed and closed tightly, and
that the vehicle has at least 3 US gallons
(14 liters) of fuel in the fuel tank.
Page 113 of 536
After a few driving trips, thelight
should turn off if no other potential
emission control system malfunction ex-
ists.
If this indicator light remains on for 20
seconds and then blinks for 10 seconds
when the engine is not running, it indi-
cates that the vehicle is not ready for an
emission control system inspection/
maintenance test. (See “Readiness for
Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) test” (P.10-
32).)
Operation:
The malfunction indicator light will come
on in one of two ways:
. Malfunction indicator light on steady
— An emission control system mal-
function has been detected. Check
the fuel-filler cap if the LOOSE FUEL
CAP warning appears in the vehicle
information display. If the fuel-filler
cap is loose or missing, tighten or
install the cap and continue to drive
the vehicle. The
light should turn
off after a few driving trips. If the
light does not turn off after a few
driving trips, have the vehicle in-
spected. It is recommended you visit
a NISSAN dealer for this service. You
do not need to have your vehicle
towed to the dealer. .
Malfunction indicator light blinking —
An engine misfire has been detected
which may damage the emission
control system.
To reduce or avoid emission control
system damage:
1) Do not drive at speeds above 45
MPH (72 km/h).
2) Avoid hard acceleration or decel- eration.
3) Avoid steep uphill grades.
4) If possible, reduce the amount of cargo being hauled or towed.
The malfunction indicator light may
stop blinking and remain on.
Have the vehicle inspected. It is re-
commended you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service. You do not need to
have your vehicle towed to the dealer.
CAUTION
Continued vehicle operation without
having the emission control system
checked and repaired as necessary
could lead to poor driveability, re-
duced fuel economy, and possible
damage to the emission control sys-
tem.
Security indicator light
The light blinks when the ignition switch
is in the ACC, OFF and LOCK position. This
function indicates the security system
equipped on the vehicle is operational.
If the security system is malfunctioning,
this light will remain on while the ignition
switch is in the ON position. For additional
information, see “Security systems” (P.2-
30).
SNOW mode indicator light
When selecting SNOW mode while the
engine is running, this light will illuminate.
(See “SNOW mode” (P.5-132).)
TOW mode indicator light
This light will illuminate when the TOW
MODE is selected while the engine is
running. (See “TOW mode” (P.5-131).)
Turn signal/hazard indicator
lights
The light flashes when the turn signal
switch lever or hazard switch is turned on.

Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)
off indicator light
When the ignition switch is in the ON
position, the Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC) off indicator light illuminates and
then turns off.
The light comes on when the VDC off
switch is pushed to OFF. This indicates
that the VDC system is not operating.
When the 4L position is selected with the
Four-Wheel Drive (4WD) shift switch, the
VDC system is disabled and the VDC off
indicator light illuminates. (4WD models)

AUDIBLE REMINDERS
Key reminder chime
A chime will sound if the driver side door
is opened while the ignition switch is
placed in the ACC position. Make sure
the ignition switch is placed in the OFF
position, and take the Intelligent Key with
you when leaving the vehicle.
Light reminder chime
A chime will sound when the driver side
door is opened with the light switch in the
orposition and the ignition
switch in the ACC, OFF or LOCK position.
Turn the light switch off when you leave
the vehicle.
Parking brake reminder chime
The chime will sound if the vehicle is
driven at more than 4 MPH (7 km/h) with
the parking brake applied. Stop the vehi-
cle and release the parking brake.
Brake pad wear warning
The disc brake pads have audible wear
warnings. When a brake pad requires
replacement, it will make a high pitched
scraping sound when the vehicle is in
motion. This scraping sound will first
occur only when the brake pedal is
depressed. After more wear of the brake
pad, the sound will always be heard even
if the brake pedal is not depressed. Have
the brakes checked as soon as possible if
the warning sound is heard.
