CAUTION
.If the vehicle runs out of fuel, the
malfunction indicator light (MIL)
may come on. Refuel as soon as
possible. After a few driving trips,
the
light should turn off. If the

Engine oil temperature gaugeGUID-44274047-D060-47F5-A00B-20A799AA2757Oil temperature, as well as the rate of
temperature change, will vary based on
ambient conditions and driving patterns.
Under normal operating conditions, oil
temperature will remain below 2808F
(1408C) .
If the engine oil temperature gauge
*1
indicates more than 2808F (1408C) while
driving, reduce the engine speed (RPM) . When the engine oil temperature is high,
the engine protection mode, which helps
reduce the chance of engine damage,
could activate and automatically decrease
engine power.
VoltmeterGUID-609889CD-E5DF-4590-8E80-A6657A493AA2When the ignition switch is turned to the ON
position, the volt meter
*2indicates the battery
voltage. When the engine is running, it indicates
the generator voltage.
While cranking the engine, the volts drop below
the normal range. If the needle is not in the
normal range (11 to 15 volts) while the engine is
running, it may indicate that the charging system
is not functioning properly. Have the system
checked by a NISSAN dealer.
ClockGUID-879883DE-B11E-430D-B0A2-0F8D8EBE2D2CIf necessary, adjust the clock*3on the setting
screen of the vehicle information display. (See
“CLOCK” (P.2-25) .)
If the power supply is disconnected, the clock
will not indicate the correct time. Readjust the
time.

paired, by a NISSAN dealer promptly. (See
“Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning light”
(P.2-10) .)
WARNING
.Your brake system may not be
working properly if the warning light
is on. Driving could be dangerous. If
you judge it to be safe, drive care-
fully to the nearest service station
for repairs. Otherwise, have your
vehicle towed because driving it
could be dangerous.
. Pressing the brake pedal with the
engine stopped and/or low brake
fluid level may increase your stop-
ping distance and braking will re-
quire greater pedal effort as well as
pedal travel.
. If the brake fluid level is below the
minimum or MIN mark on the brake
fluid reservoir, do not drive until the
brake system has been checked at a
NISSAN dealer.
Charge warning lightGUID-61CDA76E-B03B-43C3-B2F2-DACCD86DA730If the light comes on while the engine is running,
it may indicate the charging system is not
functioning properly. Turn the engine off and
check the alternator belt. If the belt is loose,
broken, missing or if the light remains on, see a
NISSAN dealer immediately.
CAUTION
Do not continue driving if the alternator
belt is loose, broken or missing.
Engine oil pressure warning lightGUID-F709B958-74AD-4877-A8AB-75DDC2976B52This light warns of low engine oil pressure. If the
light flickers or comes on during normal driving,
pull off the road in a safe area, stop the engine
immediately and call a NISSAN dealer or other
authorized repair shop.
The engine oil pressure warning light is
not designed to indicate a low oil level.
Use the dipstick to check the oil level. (See
“Engine oil” (P.8-11) .)
CAUTION
Running the engine with the engine oil
pressure warning light on could cause
serious damage to the engine almost
immediately. Such damage is not cov-
ered by warranty. Turn off the engine as
soon as it is safe to do so.
Intelligent Key system warning lightGUID-C57A3CE7-7650-43F7-9A41-369EF95E8D13After the ignition switch is pushed to the ON
position, this light comes on for about 2 seconds
and then turns off.
This light warns of a malfunction with the
Intelligent Key system.
If the light comes on while the engine is
stopped, it may be impossible to start the
engine. If the light comes on while the engine
is running, you can drive the vehicle. However in
these cases, contact a NISSAN dealer for repair
as soon as possible.

MAINTENANCE INDICATORSGUID-826D2792-78BB-4DB1-9F80-E2CC7FAC9686
1. Engine oil replacement indicatorGUID-82878847-AFB9-4DB0-9035-D418FB66756DThis indicator appears when the set time comes
for changing the engine oil. You can set or reset
the distance for changing the engine oil. (See
“Trip computer” (P.2-22) .)
2. Oil filter replacement indicatorGUID-63D34095-F93B-4620-A0A5-C319653463CBThis indicator appears when the set time comes
for replacing the oil filter. You can set or reset
the distance for replacing the oil filter. (See “Trip
computer” (P.2-22).)
3. Tire replacement indicatorGUID-E1E9DA72-EE66-4904-893A-4A123B2B1CAAThis indicator appears when the set time comes
for replacing tires. You can set or reset the
distance for replacing tires. (See “Trip compu-
ter” (P.2-22) .)
WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not a
substitute for regular tire checks, in-
cluding tire pressure checks. See
“Changing wheels and tires” (P.8-38)
in the “Maintenance and do-it-yourself”
(P.8-1)section. Many factors including
tire inflation, alignment, driving habits
and road conditions affect tire wear and

when tires should be replaced. Setting
the tire replacement indicator for a
certain driving distance does not mean
your tires will last that long. Use the tire
replacement indicator as a guide only
and always perform regular tire checks.
Failure to perform regular tire checks,
including tire pressure checks could
result in tire failure. Serious vehicle
damage could occur and may lead to a
collision, which could result in serious
personal injury or death.
4. “OTHER” indicatorGUID-5336AF1B-0FD8-4F35-9418-6059DEFCD648This indicator appears when the set time comes
for replacing items other than the engine oil, oil
filter and tires. You can set or reset the distance
for replacing the items. (See “Trip computer”
(P.2-22) .)

More maintenance reminders are also available
on the center display. (See “How to use INFO
button” (P.4-8).)
