and that the vehicle has at least three gallons of
fuel in the fuel tank.
After a few driving trips, the
light should
turn off if no other potential emission control
system malfunction exists.
If this indicator light comes on continuously for
20 seconds and then blinks for 10 seconds
when the engine is not running, it indicates that
the vehicle is not ready for an emission control
system inspection/maintenance test. See
“Readiness for inspection/maintenance (I/M)
test” in the “9. Technical and consumer informa-
tion” section of this manual.
Operation:
The malfunction indicator light will come on in
one of two ways:

Malfunction indicator light on steady — An
emission control system and/or CVT mal-
function has been detected. Turn the ignition
switch to OFF and check the fuel-filler cap. If
the fuel-filler cap is loose or missing, tighten
or install the cap and continue to drive the
vehicle. The
light should turn off after a
few driving trips. If the
light does not
turn off after a few driving trips, have the
vehicle inspected by a NISSAN dealer. You
do not need to have your vehicle towed to the
dealer.
Malfunction indicator light blinking — An en-
gine misfire has been detected which may
damage the emission control system. To re-
duce or avoid emission control system dam-
age:
a) Do not drive at speeds above 45 MPH
(72 km/h).
b) Avoid hard acceleration or deceleration.
c) Avoid steep uphill grades.
d) If possible, reduce the amount of cargo
being hauled or towed.
The malfunction indicator light may stop
blinking and come on steady.
Have the vehicle inspected by a NISSAN
dealer. You do not need to have your vehicle
towed to the dealer.
CAUTION
Continued vehicle operation without
having the emission control system
checked and repaired as necessary
could lead to poor driveability, reduced
fuel economy, and possible damage to
the emission control system.

not pushed in or the mechanical key is removed
from the ignition switch.
This function indicates the security systems
equipped on the vehicle are operational.
For additional information, see “Security sys-
tems” later in this section.
Slip indicator light (if so
equipped)
When the ignition switch is in the “ON” position,
the slip indicator light illuminates and then turns
off. This indicates the Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC) system is operational.
This indicator will blink when the VDC system or
the traction control system is operating, thus
alerting the driver to the fact that the road
surface is slippery and the vehicle is nearing its
traction limits.
If the VDC off indicator light and slip indicator
light illuminate while the engine is running or
