SPEEDOMETER AND ODOMETER
SpeedometerThe speedometer indicates vehicle speed.Odometer/Twin trip odometerThe odometer
1/twin trip odometer
2
are
displayed when the ignition key is in the ON
position.
The odometer records the total distance the
vehicle has been driven.
The twin trip odometer records the distance of
individual trips.Changing the display:
Pushing the reset button
3
located on the side
of the meter panel changes the display as
follows:
TRIP A→TRIP B→TRIP A
Resetting the trip odometer:
Pushing the reset button for more than 1 second
resets the trip odometer to zero.
TACHOMETERThe tachometer indicates engine speed in revo-
lutions per minute (r/min).
Do not rev engine into red zone
A.
CAUTION
When engine speed approaches the red
zone, shift to a higher gear. Operating
the engine in the red zone may cause
serious engine damage.

ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE
GAUGEThe gauge indicates the engine coolant tem-
perature.
The engine coolant temperature will vary with the
outside air temperature and driving conditions.
CAUTION
If the gauge indicates engine coolant
temperature over the normal range,
stop the vehicle as soon as safely pos-
sible. If the engine is overheated, con-
tinued operation of the vehicle may se-
riously damage the engine. See “If your
vehicle overheats” in the “6. In case of
emergency” section for immediate ac-
tion required.
FUEL GAUGEThe gauge indicates the approximate fuel level in
the tank.
The gauge may move slightly during braking,
turning, acceleration, or going up or down hill.
The gauge needle is designed to move to the E
(Empty) position when the ignition key is turned
to the OFF position.
Refill the fuel tank before the gauge regis-
ters Empty.

The low fuel warning light comes on when
the fuel tank is getting low. Refuel as soon
as it is convenient, preferably before the
gauge reaches E. There will be a small
reserve of fuel in the tank when the fuel
gauge needle reaches E.
The
indicates that the fuel filler lid is
located on the driver’s side of the vehicle.
CAUTION

If the vehicle runs out of fuel, the
malfunction indicator lamp
(MIL) may come on. Refuel as soon
as possible. After a few driving trips,
the
lamp should turn off. If the
lamp remains on after a few driving
trips, have the vehicle inspected by a
NISSAN dealer.

For additional information, see the
“Malfunction indicator lamp (MIL)”
later in this section.When the COMPASS switch is in the ON
position, the compass display will indicate the
direction the vehicle is heading.
N: north
E: east
S: south
W: west
If the display reads “C”, calibrate the compass
by driving the vehicle in 3 complete circles at
less than 5 MPH (8 km/h).
You can also calibrate the compass by driving
your vehicle on your everyday route. The com-
pass will be calibrated once it has tracked 3
complete circles.

Zone variation change procedureThe difference between magnetic north and
geographical north is known as variance. In
some areas, this difference can sometimes be
great enough to cause false compass readings.
Follow these instructions to set the variance for
your particular location if this happens:
1. Press the COMPASS switch for more than 3
seconds. The current zone number will ap-
pear in the display.
2. Find your current location and variance one
number on the zone map.
3. Press the COMPASS switch until the new
zone number appears in the display. After you
stop pressing the switch in, the display will
show a compass direction within a few sec-
onds.
Inaccurate compass direction:
1. With the display turned on, push the COM-
PASS switch for 3 seconds, until the zone
selection comes up (a number will be dis-
played in the mirror compass window).
2. Toggle until correct zone is found and release
switch.
3. The display will show all segments, and return
to the normal compass mode within 10 sec-
onds of no switch activity.

4. If the vehicle changes zone, repeat steps 1
thru 3. See map.

If the compass deviates from the correct
indication soon after repeated adjustment,
have the compass checked at an authorized
dealer.

The compass may not indicate the correct
compass point in tunnels or while driving up
or down a steep hill.
(The compass returns to the correct com-
pass point when the vehicle moves to an area
where the geomagnetism is stabilized.)
CAUTION

Do not install a ski rack, antenna, etc.
which are attached to the vehicle by
means of a magnet. They affect the
operation of the compass.

When cleaning the mirror, use a pa-
per towel or similar material damp-
ened with glass cleaner. Do not spray
glass cleaner directly on the mirror as
it may cause the liquid cleaner to
enter the mirror housing.2-8

promptly.
WARNING LIGHTS
or
Anti-lock brake
warning light
After turning the ignition key to the ON position,
the light will illuminate. The light will turn off after
about 2 seconds if the system is operational.
If the light comes on while the engine is running,
it may indicate that the anti-lock brake system isnot functioning properly. Have the system
checked by your NISSAN dealer.
If an abnormality occurs in the system, the
anti-lock function will cease but the ordinary
brakes will continue to operate normally. See
“Anti-lock brake system (ABS)” in the “5. Start-
ing and driving” section for further details.
If the light comes on while you are driving,
contact your NISSAN dealer for repair.
