tions'' section.

ous damage to the engine.

off and check the alternator belt. If the belt is
loose, broken, missing or if the light remains
on, see your NISSAN dealer immediately.

Do not continue driving if the belt is
loose, broken or missing.
Low fuel warning light
(If so equipped)
This light comes on when the fuel in the tank
is getting low. Refuel as soon as it is con-venient, preferably before the fuel gauge
reaches E.
There should be a small reserve of fuel
remaining in the tank when the fuel
gauge needle reaches E.
Low washer fluid warning
light (Canada only)

fluid is at a low level. Add washer fluid as
necessary. See ``Window washer fluid'' in
the ``Do-it-yourself operations'' section.

control lever is in the 4H or 4L position.
CRUISE indicator light (If so
equipped)
The light comes on while the vehicle speed
is controlled by the cruise control system.
If the light flickers while the engine is run-
ning, it may indicate something wrong with
the cruise control system. Have the system
checked by your NISSAN dealer.
orRear anti-lock brake
warning light
If the light comes on while the engine is
running, it may indicate something wrong with
the rear anti-lock brake system. Have the
system checked by your NISSAN dealer.
If an abnormality occurs in the system, the
rear anti-lock function ceases but the ordi-
nary brakes continue to operate normally.
If the light comes on while you are driving,
contact your NISSAN dealer for repair.
The rear anti-lock brake system may only
be effective when driving in the 2-wheel
drive mode.
When driving in the 4-wheel drive mode, if the
front wheels lock, the rear wheels also lock. If
this happens, the rear anti-lock brake system
may stop functioning but the ordinary brakes
operate normally. The warning light then
comes on. The above condition is not a mal-
function and the rear anti-lock brake system
recovers if the engine is started again. The
warning light then goes off. For further de-
scription of the rear anti-lock brake system,
refer to ``Rear anti-lock brake system'' in the
``Starting and driving'' section.

A key number plate is supplied with your key.
Record the key number found on the key
number plate and keep it in a safe place
(such as your wallet), NOT IN THE CAR. If
you lose your keys, see your NISSAN
dealer for duplicates by using the key num-
ber. NISSAN does not record key numbers
so it is very important to keep track of your
key number plate.
A key number is only necessary when you
have lost all keys and do not have one to
duplicate from. If you still have a key, this
key can be duplicated by your NISSAN
dealer or locksmith shop.
