Brake warning light
This light functions for both the handbrake and the
footbrake systems.
Handbrake indicator:
The light comes on when the handbrake is applied.
Low brake fluid warning:
The light warns of a low brake fluid level in the brake
power assist unit. If the light comes on while the
engine is running and the handbrake is not applied,
stop the vehicle and perform the following:
1. Check the brake fluid level. Add brake fluid as
much as necessary. See “Brake and clutch fluid”
in the “8. Maintenance and do-it-yourself” sec-
tion.
WARNING
If the level is below the MIN mark on the brake
fluid reservoir, do not drive until the brake sys-
tem has been checked at a NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop.
2. If the brake fluid level is correct:
Have the warning system checked by a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop.
WARNING
•Driving your vehicle could be dangerous.
Therefore have it towed to the nearest
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
•Pressing the brake pedal with the engine
stopped and/or low brake fluid level could in-
crease your stopping distance and require
greater pedal effort as well as pedal travel.
Charge warning light
If the light comes on while the engine is running, it
may indicate that the charging system is malfunc-
tioning. Turn the engine off and check the alternator
belt. If the belt is loose, broken, missing or if the light
remains on, see a NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop immediately.
CAUTION
Do not continue driving if the belt is loose, bro-
ken or missing.
Door open warning light
This light comes on when any of the doors are not
closed securely while the ignition switch is in the
ON position.
Engine coolant temperature
warning light
The engine coolant temperature varies with the out-
side air temperature and driving condition.
When the ignition switch is turned to the ON posi-tion, the engine coolant temperature warning light
illuminates for a few seconds and then goes off.
This means the system is operational.
The engine coolant temperature warning light illumi-
nates when the engine coolant temperature reaches
an excessively high temperature of approximately
105 °C (221 °F).
CAUTION
•If the engine coolant temperature warning
light comes on, stop the vehicle as soon as
safely possible and contact a NISSAN dealer
or qualified workshop.
•When towing a trailer or driving uphill, reduce
the vehicle speed as soon as safely possible
to decrease the engine coolant temperature.
•If the engine overheats, continued operation
of the vehicle may seriously damage the en-
gine. See “Engine overheat” in the “6. In case
of emergency” section for immediate action
required.
WARNING
Do not remove the radiator cap while the engine
is hot. Otherwise, there is a danger of being
scalded by the coolant that is likely to erupt from
the filler.
Engine oil pressure warning light
This light warns of low engine oil pressure. If the
light flickers, comes on during normal driving, or
stays on once the engine is started, pull off the road
