If any light does not come on or operate in
a way other than described, it may indicate
a burned-out bulb and/or a system mal-
function. Have the system checked. It is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
Some indicators and warnings are also dis-
played on the vehicle information display
between the speedometer and tachom-
eter. For additional information, see “Ve-
hicle information display–7 inch (18 cm)

orBrake warning
light
Low brake fluid warning light
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the light warns of a low brake fluid
level. If the light comes on while the engine
is running with the parking brake not ap-
plied, stop the vehicle and perform the
following:
1. Check the brake fluid level. Add brakefluid as necessary. For additional infor-
mation, see “Brake fluid” (P. 8-11).
2. If the brake fluid level is correct, have the warning system checked. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service.
WARNING
• Your brake system may not be work-
ing properly if the warning light is on.
Driving could be dangerous. If you
judge it to be safe, drive carefully to
the nearest service station for re-
pairs. Otherwise, have your vehicle
towed because driving it could be
dangerous.
• Pressing the brake pedal with the en-
gine stopped and/or a low brake
fluid level may increase your stop-
ping distance and braking will re-
quire greater pedal effort as well as
pedal travel.
• If the brake fluid level is below the
MINIMUM or MIN mark on the brake
fluid reservoir, do not drive until the
brake system has been checked. It is
recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.

tion, see “Engine oil” (P. 8-6 ).

equipped)
When the ignition is in the ON position, the
master warning light illuminates if a
warning message appears in the vehicle
information display.
For additional information, see “Vehicle in-
formation display–7 inch (18 cm) Type A”
(P. 2-23) or “Vehicle information display—12.3
inch (31 cm) Type B” (P. 2-48).
Seat belt warning light and
chime (if so equipped)
• The light and chime remind you to fasten the seat belts.
• The seat belt warning light will illuminate when the ignition switch is pushed to the
ON position if the driver’s seat belt is not
fastened, or if the front passenger seat
belt is not fastened when occupied.
• The seat belt warning light will also illumi- nate if a rear passenger seat belt is
changed from fastened to unfastened. • If the driver’s seat belt is not fastened
when the ignition switch is pushed to the
ON position, the chime will sound shortly.
• If the vehicle is driven above 9 mph (15 km/h) in the conditions that illuminate
the seat belt warning light, the lamp will
begin to blink and the chime will sound
for over one minute, or until the seat belt
is fastened again.
NOTE:

activate if an object is placed in the un-
occupied front passenger seat. In this
case, please remove the object from
the front passenger seat.
• The warning light and/or chime may
activate if any seat belt is unfastened
before the vehicle comes to a complete
stop. Please remain fastened until the
vehicle has come to a complete stop.

warning light (if so
equipped)
When the Steering Assist is activated, it
monitors the driver’s steering wheel opera-
tion. If the steering wheel is not operated or

steering wheel for a period of time, the warning light illuminates. If the driver does
not operate the steering wheel af ter the
warning light has been illuminated, an au-
dible alert sounds and the warning flashes
in the vehicle information display, followed
by a quick brake application to request the
driver to take control of the vehicle again. If
the driver remains unresponsive, the ve-
hicle will automatically turn on the hazard
lights and slow to a complete stop.
For additional information, see “Steering
Assist” (P. 5-119).
