WARNING LIGHTS, INDICATOR
LIGHTS AND AUDIBLE REMINDERS

If the light illuminates when the RAB
system is on, it may indicate that the
system is unavailable. (See “Rear Auto-
matic Braking (RAB)” (P.5-116).)
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)
For additional information, see “Vehicle
Dynamic Control (VDC) system” (P.5-144).
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.5-144).

High beam assist
The high beam assist system will operate
when the vehicle is driven at approxi-
mately 25 MPH (40 km/h) and above.
If an oncoming vehicle or leading vehicle
appears in front of your vehicle when the
headlight high beam is on, the headlight
will be switched to the low beam auto-
matically.
Precautions on high beam assist:
WARNING
.The high beam assist system is a
convenience but it is not a sub-
stitute for safe driving operation.
The driver should remain alert at
all times, ensure safe driving
practices and switch the high
beam and low beam manually
when necessary.
. The high beam or low beam may
not switch automatically under
the following conditions. Switch
the high beam and low beam
manually.
— During bad weather (rain, fog,
snow, wind, etc.). — When a light source similar to
a headlight or tail light is in
the vicinity of the vehicle.
— When the headlights of the oncoming vehicle or the lead-
ing vehicle are turned off,
when the color of the light is
affected due to foreign mate-
rials on the lights, or when the
light beam is out of position.
— When there is a sudden, con- tinuous change in brightness.
— When driving on a road that passes over rolling hills, or a
road that has level differ-
ences.
— When driving on a road with many curves.
— When a sign or mirror-like surface is reflecting intense
light towards the front of the
vehicle.
— When the container, etc. being towed by a leading vehicle is
reflecting intense light.
— When a headlight on your vehicle is damaged or dirty.
— When the vehicle is leaning at an angle due to a punctured tire, being towed, etc.
. The timing of switching the low
beam and high beam may
change under the following situa-
tions.
— The brightness of the head-
lights of the oncoming vehicle
or leading vehicle.
— The movement and direction of the oncoming vehicle and
the leading vehicle.
— When only one light on the oncoming vehicle or the lead-
ing vehicle is illuminated.
— When the oncoming vehicle or the leading vehicle is a two-
wheeled vehicle.
— Road conditions (incline, curve, the road surface, etc.).
— The number of passengers and the amount of luggage.

Example
High beam assist operations:
To activate the high beam assist system,
turn the headlight switch to the AUTO
position
(orposition, depending on
the model) and push the lever forward
(high beam position). The high beam
assist indicator light in the meter will
illuminate while the headlights are turned
on.
If the high beam assist indicator light
does not illuminate in the above condi-
tion, it may indicate that the system is not
functioning properly. Have the system
checked by a NISSAN dealer.
When the vehicle speed lowers to less than approximately 16 MPH (25 km/h), the
headlight remains the low beam.
To turn off the high beam assist system,
turn the headlight switch to the
position or select the low beam position
by placing the lever in the neutral posi-
tion.

seat. Then adjust the mirror so as
to see the rear window properly.
Driving without adjusting the mir-
ror may cause difficulty in watch-
ing the display at Intelligent Rear
View Mirror mode (camera view
mode) due to the reflection from
the surface of the mirror.
. If the Intelligent Rear View Mirror
malfunctions, immediately switch
the system to the conventional
rearview mirror mode.
. When strong light (for example,
sunlight or high beams from fol-
lowing vehicles) enters the cam-
era, a light beam or a glaring light
may appear on the monitor
screen of the Intelligent Rear
View Mirror. In that case, switch
the system to the conventional
rearview mirror mode appropri-
ately.
. If dirt, rain or snow accumulates
on the exterior glass surface cov-
ering the camera, the Intelligent
Rear View Mirror may not display
objects clearly. Use of the rear
window wiper/washer may im-
prove visibility, but if not, switch
the Intelligent Rear View Mirror to
the conventional rearview mirror
mode until a time the glass cov- ering the camera can be cleaned.

(such as rain, snow, fog, dust
storms, sand storms, smoke,
and road spray from other
vehicles).
— If dirt, ice, snow, fog or other material is covering the radar
sensor area or camera area of
the windshield. — If strong light (for example,
sunlight or high beams) en-
ters the front camera or a
sudden change in brightness
occurs (for example, entering
a tunnel or driving in light-
ning).

Fog may temporarily form inside the lens
of the exterior lights in the rain or in a car
wash. A temperature difference between
the inside and the outside of the lens
causes the fog. This is not a malfunction.
If large drops of water collect inside the
lens, it is recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
Replacing
If LED headlight replacement is required,
it is recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
