AUXILIARY GAUGES (if so
equipped)
1. Automatic Transmission fluid tempera-ture gauge
2. Voltmeter
3. Engine oil pressure gauge
4. Engine oil temperature gauge
Automatic Transmission fluid
temperature gauge
This gauge indicates the temperature of
the automatic transmission fluid.
CAUTION
• This gauge is not designed to indi-
cate low automatic transmission
fluid level. Use the dipstick to check
the fluid level. For additional infor-
mation, see “Automatic Transmis-
sion Fluid (ATF)” (P. 8-13).
• If the gauge indicates automatic
transmission fluid temperature over
the normal range, stop the vehicle as
soon as safely possible. It is recom-
mended that you have the vehicle
checked by a NISSAN dealer. Contin-
ued operation of the vehicle may se-
riously damage the transmission.
Voltmeter
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the voltmeter indicates the bat-
tery voltage. When the engine is running, it
indicates the generator voltage.
While cranking the engine, the volts drop
below the normal range. If the range is not
within the normal range (11 – 15 volts) while
the engine is running, it may indicate that
the charging system is not functioning
properly. Have the system checked. It is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
Engine oil pressure gauge
The gauge indicates the engine lubrication
system oil pressure while the engine is run-
ning. The bar should be in the middle of the
gauge when the engine is running.
CAUTION
• This gauge is not designed to indi-
cate low engine oil level. Use the dip-
stick to check the oil level. For addi-
tional information, see “Engine oil”
(P. 8-8).
• If the gauge needle does not move
with the proper amount of engine oil,
it is recommended that you have the
vehicle checked by a NISSAN dealer.
Continued vehicle operation in such
a condition could cause serious dam-
age to the engine.
Engine oil temperature gauge
This gauge measures the temperature of
the engine oil.

Low brake fluid warning light
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the light warns of a low brake fluid
level. If the light comes on while the engine
is running with the parking brake not ap-
plied, stop the vehicle and perform the
following:
1. Check the brake fluid level. Add brakefluid as necessary. For additional infor-
mation, see “Brake fluid” (P. 8-14).
2. If the brake fluid level is correct, have the warning system checked. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.
WARNING
• Your brake system may not be work-
ing properly if the warning light is on.
Driving could be dangerous. If you
judge it to be safe, drive carefully to
the nearest service station for re-
pairs. Otherwise, have your vehicle
towed because driving it could be
dangerous. •
Pressing the brake pedal with the en-
gine stopped and/or a 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. It is
recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
Charge warning light
If this light comes on while the engine is
running, it may indicate the charging sys-
tem is not functioning properly. Turn the
engine off and check the generator belt. If
the belt is loose, broken, or missing or if the
light remains on, have the system checked.
It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
CAUTION
• Do not ground electrical accessories
directly to the battery terminal. Do-
ing so will bypass the variable volt-
age control system and the vehicle
battery may not charge completely.
For additional information, see “Vari-
able voltage control system” (P. 8-18).
• Do not continue driving if the genera-
tor belt is loose, broken or missing.
Electric shif t control system
warning light
This light illuminates when a malfunction
occurs in the electric shif t control system.
When the master warning light illuminates,
the chime sounds and the following mes-
sage is displayed in the vehicle information
display: “When parked apply parking brake”.
When the ignition is placed in the OFF posi-
tion, the chime sounds continuously. En-
sure the parking brake is applied
Have the system checked. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer for
this service.

When the vehicle speed lowers to less than
approximately 16 mph (25 km/h), the head-
light uses the low beam.
To turn off the High Beam Assist system,
turn the headlight switch to the
posi-
tion or select the low beam position by
placing the lever in the neutral position.
Ambient image sensor maintenance
The ambient image sensorO1for the High
Beam Assist system is located in front of
the inside mirror. To maintain the proper
operation of the high beam assist system
and prevent a system malfunction, be sure
to observe the following:
• Always keep the windshield clean.
• Do not attach a sticker (including trans- parent material) or install an accessory
near the ambient image sensor.
• Do not strike or damage the areas around the ambient image sensor. Do
not touch the sensor lens that is located
on the ambient image sensor. If the ambient image sensor is damaged
due to an accident, it is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN dealer.
Battery saver system
The battery saver system automatically
turns off the following lights af ter a period
of time when the ignition switch is placed in
the OFF position and the doors are closed:
• Headlights, when the headlight switch is
in the
orposition
• Interior lights, when lef t in the ON position (if so equipped)
Af ter the headlights automatically turn off
with the headlight switch in the
orposition, the headlights will illuminate
again if the headlight switch is moved to
the OFF position and then turned to the
orposition.
CAUTION
Even though the battery saver feature
automatically turns off the headlights
af ter a period of time, you should turn
the headlight switch to the OFF posi-
tion when the engine is not running to
avoid discharging the vehicle battery.

To use the outlets for devices that require
up to 120v power, the vehicle must be run-
ning and the power inverter switch must
be on.
When the vehicle is in the P (Park) position,
the 400W and the 150W will automatically
illuminate. When the vehicle is out of the P
(Park) position, only 150W will illuminate.
For additional information, see “120v out-
lets” (P. 2-61) regarding using devices that
require the power inverter switch to be
activated.
CAUTION
• Use power outlets with the engine
running to avoid discharging the ve-
hicle battery.
• Do not use double adapters or more
than one electrical accessory, doing
so could significantly drain the bat-
tery of your vehicle.
The Parking Aids system switch on the in-
strument panel allows the driver to turn
the following systems (if so equipped) on
and off. To turn the systems on and off, the
ignition switch must be in the ON position.

NOTE:
• Not all of the USB charging ports willoperate with the display screen. Only
the USB connection ports located un-
der the climate controls will allow op-
eration of USB devices through the au-
dio system.
• For best results, it is recommended to use the manufacturer cables, which
are sold separately. A USB Type-A to
USB Type-C adapter (or vice versa) can
also be purchased separately; how-
ever, results may vary.
CAUTION
• Do not force a USB device into the
connector. Inserting the USB device
tilted or up-side down into the con-
nector may damage the connector.
Make sure that the USB device is con-
nected correctly into the connector.
• Do not use a reversible USB cable. Us-
ing the reversible USB cable may
damage the connector.
The wireless charger is located on the front
of the center console. Lay the smartphone
on the pad of the wireless charger. Charg-
ing will start automatically. The smart-

the wireless charger. This is not a mal-
function. If this occurs, restart charging
af ter the smartphone has cooled
down. The indicator will blink in orange
then turn off.
• The wireless charging process may be
stopped by the status of the smart-
phone (battery temperature, etc.).
• If a radio noise interference occurs dur-
ing charging process, put the smart-
phone onto the center (“Qi” logo) posi-
tion of the wireless charger.
• The wireless charging process will stop
during process of searching the Intelli-
gent Key.
• The wireless charging process will not
be started when a USB (Universal Serial
Bus) cable is connected to the smart-
phone. The indicator may illuminate in
orange or blink if the smartphone is
put on the wireless charger with a USB
cable connected. However, charging is
not performed.
