Outside air temperature displayWhen the outside air temperature is 3°C or
lower, the display blinks to give a warning.
If the outside air temperature becomes 3°C or
lower when the display is in one of the other
modes, the display switches to the outside air
temperature display mode and blinks. If the
outside air temperature becomes above 3°C or
the display mode is not switched for 1 minute, it
returns to the display mode previously set.
Even while the display is blinking, the display
mode can be switched to the one previously set
by pushing the reset knob.
The ambient temperature sensor is located in
front of the radiator. The sensor may be affected
by road or engine heat, wind directions and
other driving conditions. The display may differ
from the actual ambient temperature or thetemperature displayed on various signs or bill-
boards.
Clock displayRefer to “Clock” later in this section for further
details on the clock adjustment.

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.

GAUGEThe gauge indicates the engine coolant tem-
perature.
The engine coolant temperature is normal when
the gauge indicates within the range
1.
The engine coolant temperature will vary with the
outside air temperature and driving conditions.

temperature over the normal range
1,
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

Anti-lock brake warning light
After turning the ignition key to the ON position,
the light will illuminate and then turn off. This
indicates the anti-lock brake system (ABS) 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 a 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 a NISSAN dealer for repair.
