WARNING/INDICATOR LIGHTS AND AUDIBLE REMINDERS
2-4Instruments and controls

Door lock indicator light
(where fitted)
The door lock indicator light located on the instru-
ment panel illuminates when all the doors are locked
while the ignition switch is in the ON position.
•When the doors are locked with the power door
lock switch, the door lock indicator light will illu-
minate for 30 minutes.
•When the doors are locked by pushing the
LOCK button on the Intelligent Key or any re-
quest switch (where fitted), the door lock indica-
tor light will illuminate for 1 minute.
•The door lock indicator light turns off when any
door is unlocked.
For locking or unlocking doors, see “Door locks” in
the “3. Pre-driving checks and adjustments” sec-
tion.
Electronic Stability Programme
(ESP) OFF indicator light
(where fitted)
The light comes on when the Electronic Stability
Programme (ESP) OFF switch is pushed to the OFF
position. This indicates that the ESP system is not
operating.
This light also comes on briefly when the ignition
switch is turned to the ON position. The light will
turn off after approximately 1 second if the ESP sys-
tem is operational.
When the ESP OFF indicator light and SLIP indica-tor light (see “SLIP indicator light (where fitted)”
later in this section) come on with the ESP system
turned on, it alerts the driver to the fact that the sys-
tem’s fail-safe mode is operating. This means that
the system may not be functioning properly. Have
the system checked by your NISSAN dealer or quali-
fied workshop.
If an abnormality occurs in the system, the ESP sys-
tem function will be cancelled, but the vehicle is still
driveable. For additional information, see “Electronic
Stability Programme (ESP) system (where fitted)” in
the “5. Starting and driving” section.
Front fog light indicator light
The light comes on when the front fog lights are
switched on (see “Fog light switch” later in this sec-
tion).
Glow plug indicator light (Diesel
engines)
This light comes on when the ignition switch is in the
ON position and goes out when the glow plugs have
been pre-heated. When the engine is cold, the glow
plug warm-up time will be longer.
High beam assist indicator light
(where fitted)
The indicator light illuminates when the headlights
come on while the headlight switch is in the AUTO
position with the high beam selected. This indicates
that the high beam assist system is operational. (See
2-36.)
High beam indicator light
This light comes on when the headlight high beam
is on and goes out when the low beam is selected.
Malfunction Indicator light
(orange)
When the ignition switch is turned to the ON posi-
tion, the orange Malfunction Indicator light illumi-
nates. This means that the system is operational.
If the orange Malfunction Indicator light comes on
steady or blinks (where fitted) while the engine is
running, it may indicate an engine control system
malfunction.
See “Malfunction warning light (red) (where fitted)”
earlier in this section for details of the red malfunc-
tion warning light (where fitted).
On steady (orange):
An engine malfunction has been detected. Have the
vehicle inspected by a NISSAN dealer or qualified
workshop. You do not need to have your vehicle
towed to the dealer.
Blinking (orange) (where fitted):
An engine misfire has been detected which may
damage the engine control system.
To reduce or avoid engine control system dam-
age:
•Do not drive at speeds above 70 km/h (43
MPH).
•Avoid hard acceleration or deceleration.
Instruments and controls2-11

•Avoid steep uphill grades.
•If possible, reduce the load being carried or
towed.
The Malfunction Indicator light may stop blinking
and come on steady.
Have the vehicle inspected by a NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop. You do not need to have your
vehicle towed to the dealer.
CAUTION
Continued vehicle operation without having the
engine control system checked and repaired as
necessary could lead to poor driveability,
reduced fuel economy and possible damage to
the engine control system, which may affect your
warranty coverage.
Rear fog light indicator light
(where fitted)
The light comes on when the rear fog light is
switched on (see “Rear fog light (where fitted)” later
in this section).

position is selected, see “Headlight and turn signal
switch” later in this section for further details.
SLIP indicator light
(where fitted)
The SLIP indicator blinks when the Electronic Sta-
bility Programme (ESP) system is operating, thus
alerting the driver to the fact that the road surface is
slippery and the vehicle is nearing its traction limits.
You may feel or hear the system working, this is nor-
mal.
The light will continue to blink for a few seconds
after the ESP system stops limiting wheel spin.
For additional information see “Electronic Stability
Programme (ESP) OFF indicator light (where
fitted)” earlier in this section and “Electronic Stabil-
ity Programme (ESP) system (where fitted)” in the
“5. Starting and driving” section.
