•If any of the following conditions oc-
cur, the automatic brake hold func-
tion may not function. Have the sys-
tem checked promptly. It is
recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service. Failure
to operate the vehicle in accordance
with these conditions could cause
the vehicle to move or roll away un-
expectedly and result in serious per-
sonal injury or property damage.
– A warning message appears in the
vehicle information display.
– The indicator light on the auto-
matic brake hold switch does not
illuminate when the switch is
pushed.

brake pedal first, then to turn off au-
tomatic brake hold switch. This will
cancel the hold function.
• To maintain the braking force to keep
the vehicle to a standstill, a noise
may be heard. This is not a
malfunction.
