or MPH (where fitted)).

The tachometer indicates the engine speed in revo-
lutions per minute (r/min).Do not rev the engine
into the red zone
j1.
CAUTION
When the engine speed approaches the red zone,

level positionj0 when the ignition switch is turned
to the “OFF” position.
The gauge may move slightly during braking, turn-
ing, acceleration, or going up or down hill.

csymbol indicates that the fuel filler lid is
located on the right side of the vehicle.NOTE
•The low fuel warning lightjA comes on when
the fuel tank level is getting low.
•Refuel as soon as it is convenient, preferably
before the gauge reaches the empty level.
There should be a small reserve of fuel in the

WARNING
•Do not drive with the back door opened. This
could allow dangerous exhaust gases to be
drawn into the vehicle.
•Closely supervise children when they are
around the vehicle to prevent them from play-
ing and being locked in the luggage compart-
ment where they could be seriously injured.
Keep the vehicle locked, with the back door
closed, when not in use, and prevent chil-
dren’s access to the vehicle’s keys.
NISSAN ANTI-THEFT SYSTEM (NATS)
The NISSAN Anti-Theft System (NATS)* will not
allow the engine to start without the use of the reg-
istered NATS key.
* Immobilizer
If the engine fails to start using the registered NATS
key, it may be due to interference from another
NATS key, an automated toll road device or an auto-
mated payment device on the key ring. Restart the
engine using the following procedure:
1. Leave the ignition switch in the ON position for
approximately 5 seconds.
2. Turn the ignition switch to the “OFF” or LOCK
position and wait approximately 5 seconds.
3. Repeat steps 1 and 2.
4. Restart the engine while holding the device
(which may have caused the interference) sepa-
rated from the registered NATS key or NATS
Intelligent Key (where fitted).
If this procedure allows the engine to start,
NISSAN recommends placing the registered
NATS key or NATS Intelligent Key (where fitted)
on a separate key-ring to avoid interference from
other devices.
NATS security warning light
The security warning light blinks whenever the igni-
tion switch is in the LOCK, “OFF” or Acc position.
This function indicates that NATS is equipped on
the vehicle.
If the NISSAN Anti-Theft System (NATS) is mal-
functioning, this light will remain on while the ignition
key is in the ON position.
If the light remains on and/or the engine will not
start, see your NISSAN dealer for NATS service
as soon as possible. Please bring all NATS keys
or NATS Intelligent Keys when visiting your
NISSAN dealer for service.
Additional information for RHD models
If the NATS is malfunctioning, this light will turn on
after flashing six times while the ignition switch is in
the ON position.
However, if the NATS security warning light turns
off after the light has remained on for 15 minutes,
