Have the system repaired promptly.
WARNING LIGHTS
Air bag warning light
When the ignition switch is in the ON or START
position, the air bag light will illuminate for approxi-
mately 7 seconds and then turn off. This means the
system is operational.
If any of the following conditions occur, the air bag
systems and pre-tensioner seat belt need servicingand your vehicle must be taken to the nearest
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
•The air bag warning light remains on after ap-
proximately 7 seconds.
•The air bag warning light flashes intermittently.
•The air bag warning light does not come on at
all.
Unless checked and repaired, the Supplemental Re-
straint System (SRS) and/or pre-tensioner seat belt
may not function properly.
For additional details on the air bag system, see
WARNING/INDICATOR LIGHTS AND AUDIBLE REMINDERS
Instruments and controls2-7

Diesel particulate filter warning
light (where fitted)
When the warning light illuminates, it indicates that
particulate matter has accumulated to the specified
amount of the limit in the diesel particulate filter.
Drive the vehicle at more than approximately 60 km/h
(37.5 MPH) as soon as safely possible until the
warning light turns off. Always conform to local regu-
lations. Particulate matter collected in the filter can-
not be burned under low speed driving conditions.
After having burned the particulate matter com-
pletely, the warning light will turn off.
See “Diesel particulate filter (where fitted)” in the
“5. Starting and driving” section for further details.
Glow plug indicator light (Diesel
engine)
This light comes on when the ignition switch is in the
ON position, and goes out when the glow plugs
have been pre-heated. When the engine is cold, the
glow plug warm-up time will be longer.
CAUTION
If the light remains on, this may indicate a prob-
lem in the glow system. Have the system checked
at a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
Overdrive off indicator light
(automatic transmission)
The overdrive off indicator light illuminates when the
overdrive is turned OFF. See “Driving with auto-
matic transmission” in the “5. Starting and driving”
section.If the vehicle is driven under extreme conditions,
such as excessive wheel spinning and subse-
quent hard braking, the Fail-safe system may be
activated. This will occur even if all electrical cir-
cuits are functioning properly. In this case, turn
the ignition key to the “OFF” position and wait for
3 seconds. Then turn the key back to the ON
position. The vehicle should return to its normal
operating condition. If it does not return to its
normal operating condition have a NISSAN dealer
or qualified workshop check the transmission
and repair if necessary.
Rear fog light indicator light
The light comes on when the rear fog light switch is
turned on.
SLIP indicator light
(where fitted)
This indicator will blink when the ESP system is
operating, thus alerting the driver to the fact that the
road surface is slippery and the vehicle is nearing its
traction limits.
You may feel or hear the system working, this is nor-
mal.
The light will blink for a few seconds after the ESP
system stops limiting wheel spin.
The
indicator light also comes on when you
turn the ignition switch to the ON position. The light
will turn off after approximately 2 seconds if the sys-tem is operational. If the light does not come on
have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop.
Front fog light indicator light
(where fitted)
The light comes on when the front fog lights are
switched on.
Side light and headlight indicator
light
The side light and headlight indicator light illumi-
nates when the side light or headlight position is
selected. See “Headlight and turn signal switch”
later in this section for further details.
Turn signal/hazard indicator
lights
The light flashes when the turn signal switch lever or
hazard switch is turned on.
High beam indicator light
This light comes on when the headlight high beam
is on, and goes out when the low beam is selected.

opened while the key is left in the ignition switch and
an attempt is made to set the power door lock switch
to the LOCK position.
The chime will sound if the driver’s door is opened
while the Intelligent Key (where fitted) is left inside
the vehicle and the ignition knob is not in the LOCK
position.
Remove the key or Intelligent Key and take it with
you when leaving the vehicle.
Handbrake reminder buzzer
(where fitted)
The buzzer will sound if the vehicle is driven and the
handbrake has not previously been released.
First release the handbrake, then start driving.
See “Handbrake lever” in the “3. Pre-driving checks
and adjustments” section for further operating infor-
mation.
Trailer direction indicator buzzer
The electrical system of the vehicle will detect an
additional electrical load of the trailer lighting when
towing a trailer and the turn signal switch is used.
As a result, the direction indicator tone will be differ-

•If the coolant temperature warning light comes
on, turn the air conditioner off. For additional
information, see “Engine overheat” in the “6. In
case of emergency” section.
•If the engine coolant reaches an extremely high
temperature, the air conditioning system will au-
tomatically turn off. This may happen for example
if the engine runs at idle speed for a long time on
a hot day.
The sensor
j1 on the fascia helps the system to
maintain a constant temperature inside the cabin.
Do not put anything on or around this sensor.
Air conditioner filter
The air conditioning system is equipped with a filter
which collects dirt, pollen, dust, etc. To make sure
air conditioner heats, defogs, and ventilates effi-
ciently, replace the filter regularly. To replace the fil-
ter, contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
The filter should be replaced if the air flow isextremely reduced or when the windows get fog
up easily during air conditioning system opera-
tion.
Servicing air conditioner
The air conditioning system in your NISSAN vehicle
is charged with an environmentally friendly refriger-
ant.
NISSAN GREEN PROGRAM
This refrigerant will not harm the earth’s ozone
layer.
Special charging equipment and lubricant are re-
quired when servicing your vehicle’s air conditioner.
Using improper refrigerants or lubricants will cause
severe damage to the air conditioning system. See
“Air conditioning system refrigerant and lubricant
recommendations (where fitted)” in the “9. Techni-
cal information” section of this manual.
A NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop will be able
to service the environmentally “friendly” air condi-
tioning system.The audio system operates when the ignition switch
is in the Acc or ON position. If you want to listen to
the radio or CD while the engine is not running, turn
the ignition switch to the Acc position.Do not use
for an extended period of time with the engine
stopped.
AUDIO OPERATION PRECAUTIONS
WARNING
Do not adjust the audio system while driving so
that full attention may be given to vehicle opera-
tion.
Radio
•Radio reception is affected by station signal
strength, distance from radio transmitter, build-
ings, bridges, mountains and other external influ-
ences. Intermittent changes in reception quality
are normally caused by these external influences.
•Using a mobile phone in or near the vehicle may
influence radio reception quality.
•Use the antenna for the best reception.
Compact Disc (CD) player
•During cold weather or rainy days, the player
may malfunction due to the humidity. If this oc-
curs, remove the CD and dehumidify or ventilate
the player completely.
•The player may skip while driving on rough roads.
