FRONT-PASSENGER AIR BAG STATUS LIGHT
This vehicle is equipped with the Nissan Advanced Air Bag system. Under some conditions, depending on pressure detected on the passenger seat and how the seat belt is used, the front-passenger air bag is designed to automatically turn OFF. When the front-passenger air bag is OFF, the front-passenger air bag status light will illuminate*. For example:
When the system detects that the front-passenger’s seat is occupied by a small adult, child or child restraint as outlined in the Owner’s Manual, the will illuminate to indicate that the front-passenger air bag is OFF and will not inflate in a crash.
When the front-passenger’s seat is occupied and the passenger meets the conditions outlined in the Owner’s Manual, the will not illuminate to indicate that the front-passenger air bag is operational.
*When the system detects that the front-passenger’s seat is unoccupied, the passenger air bag status light will not illuminate even though the front-passenger air bag is OFF.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for detailed information regarding the Nissan Advanced Air Bag System.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (if so equipped)
This system monitors tire pressure. Please remember, this system does not detect a sudden drop in tire pressure (for example, a blowout while driving). It also does not monitor the air pressure in the spare tire.
Tire pressure is affected by temperature. Low outside temperature causes lower tire pressure. This may cause the low tire pressure warning light to illuminate.
If the low tire pressure warning light comes on, check the tire pressure in all four tires. Adjust the low tire pressure to the
recommended COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and Loading Information label to turn the low tire pressure warning light off.
If TPMS is not functioning properly, the low tire pressure warning light will flash for approximately 60 seconds when the key is turned on. The light will remain on after the 60
seconds. Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer.

The transmission in your Murano requires a special fluid (NS-2) available only at your NISSAN dealer. No other fluid will meet the exacting requirements of the new Xtronic CVT™.
MANUAL SHIFT MODE (if so equipped)
When the transmission lever is shifted from D (Drive) to the manual shift gate, the transmission enters the manual shift mode.
In the manual shift mode, shift range is displayed on the position indicator in the meter.
When shifting up, move the transmission lever to the + (up) side. (Shifts to higher gear.)
When shifting down, move the transmission lever to the - (down) side. (Shifts to lower gear.)
In manual shift mode, the transmission automatically shifts down to M1 (first) before the vehicle comes to a stop. When accelerating again, it is necessary to shift to the desired gear.
When canceling the manual shift mode, return the transmission selector lever to the D (Drive) position. The transmission returns to the normal driving mode.

FRONT-PASSENGER AIR BAG STATUS LIGHT
This vehicle is equipped with the Nissan Advanced Air Bag system. Under some conditions, depending on pressure detected on the passenger seat and how the seat belt is used, the front-passenger air bag is designed to automatically turn OFF. When the front-passenger air bag is OFF, the front-passenger air bag status light will illuminate*. For example:
When the system detects that the front-passenger’s seat is occupied by a small adult, child or child restraint as outlined in the Owner’s Manual, the will illuminate to indicate that the front-passenger air bag is OFF and will not inflate in a crash.
When the front-passenger’s seat is occupied and the passenger meets the conditions outlined in the Owner’s Manual, the will not illuminate to indicate that the front-passenger air bag is operational.
*When the system detects that the front-passenger’s seat is unoccupied, the passenger air bag status light will not illuminate even though the front-passenger air bag is OFF.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for detailed information regarding the Nissan Advanced Air Bag System.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (if so equipped)
This system monitors tire pressure. Please remember, this system does not detect a sudden drop in tire pressure (for example, a blowout while driving). It also does not monitor the air pressure in the spare tire.
Tire pressure is affected by temperature. Low outside temperature causes lower tire pressure. This may cause the low tire pressure warning light to illuminate.
If the low tire pressure warning light comes on, check the tire pressure in all four tires. Adjust the low tire pressure to the
recommended COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and Loading Information label to turn the low tire pressure warning light off.
If TPMS is not functioning properly, the low tire pressure warning light will flash for approximately 60 seconds when the key is turned on. The light will remain on after the 60
seconds. Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer.

MANUAL SHIFT MODE (if so equipped)
When the transmission lever is shifted from D (Drive) to the manual shift gate, the transmission enters the manual shift mode.
In the manual shift mode, shift range is displayed on the position indicator in the meter.
When shifting up, move the transmission lever to the + (up) side. (Shifts to higher gear.)
When shifting down, move the transmission lever to the - (down) side. (Shifts to lower gear.)
In manual shift mode, the transmission automatically shifts down to M1 (first) before the vehicle comes to a stop. When accelerating again, it is necessary to shift to the desired gear.
When canceling the manual shift mode, return the transmission selector lever to the D (Drive) position. The transmission returns to the normal driving mode.

In the manual shift mode, shift range is displayed on the position indicator in the meter.
When shifting up, move the transmission lever to the + (up) side. (Shifts to higher gear.)
When shifting down, move the transmission lever to the - (down) side. (Shifts to lower gear.)
In manual shift mode, the transmission automatically shifts down to M1 (first) before the vehicle comes to a stop. When accelerating again, it is necessary to shift to the desired gear.
When canceling the manual shift mode, return the transmission selector lever to the D (Drive) position. The transmission returns to the normal driving mode.

FRONT-PASSENGER AIR BAG STATUS LIGHT
This vehicle is equipped with the Nissan Advanced Air Bag system. Under some conditions, depending on pressure detected on the passenger seat and how the seat belt is used, the front-passenger air bag is designed to automatically turn OFF. When the front-passenger air bag is OFF, the front-passenger air bag status light will illuminate*. For example:
When the system detects that the front-passenger’s seat is occupied by a small adult, child or child restraint as outlined in the Owner’s Manual, the will illuminate to indicate that the front-passenger air bag is OFF and will not inflate in a crash.
When the front-passenger’s seat is occupied and the passenger meets the conditions outlined in the Owner’s Manual, the will not illuminate to indicate that the front-passenger air bag is operational.
*When the system detects that the front-passenger’s seat is unoccupied, the passenger air bag status light will not illuminate even though the front-passenger air bag is OFF.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for detailed information regarding the Nissan Advanced Air Bag System.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (if so equipped)
This system monitors tire pressure. Please remember, this system does not detect a sudden drop in tire pressure (for example, a blowout while driving). It also does not monitor the air pressure in the spare tire.
Tire pressure is affected by temperature. Low outside temperature causes lower tire pressure. This may cause the low tire pressure warning light to illuminate.
If the low tire pressure warning light comes on, check the tire pressure in all four tires. Adjust the low tire pressure to the
recommended COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and Loading Information label to turn the low tire pressure warning light off.
If TPMS is not functioning properly, the low tire pressure warning light will flash for approximately 60 seconds when the key is turned on. The light will remain on after the 60
seconds. Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer.
