Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine ACTIVE HEAD RESTRAINTS (front
seats)
WARNING
Always adjust the head restraints properly as
specified in the previous section. Failure to do
so can reduce the effectiveness of the active
head restraint.
Active head restraints are designed to supple-
ment other safety systems. Always wear seat
belts. No system can prevent all injuries in an
accident.
Do not attach anything to the head restraint
stalks. Doing so could impair the active head
restraint’s function.
The head restraint moves forward utilising the force
that the seatback receives from the occupant in a
rear-end collision. The movement of the head re-
straint helps support the occupant’s head by reduc- ing its backward movement and by helping to ab-
sorb some of the forces that may lead to whiplash
type injuries.
Active head restraints are effective for collisions at
low to medium speeds in which it is said that whip-
lash injury occurs most.
Active head restraints operate only in certain rear-
end collisions. After the collision, the head restraints
return to their original positions.
Properly adjust the active head restraints as de-
scribed in the previous section.
WARNING
7–seater: Seat belts for 3rd row seats are not
part of the seat belt warning monitoring system.
SEAT BELT WARNINGS
jA Driver and front passenger
The seat belt warning lights, located in the instru-
ment paneljA , will light up if the driver and/or front
passenger seat belts have not been fastened. See
“Warning/indicator lights and audible reminders” in
the “2. Instruments and controls” section for further
details.
jB Rear passengers
The rear passenger seat belt warning is shown in
the vehicle information displayjB . See “Vehicle in-
formation display” in the “2. Instruments and
controls” section.
The seat belt warning alerts the driver and/or front
passenger if a (rear) seat belt is not securely fas-

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine AIR BAG WARNING LABELS
Warning labels about the air bag system are placed
in the vehicle. Warning labels are for your safety and
the safety of your passengers; do not remove them.
Child restraint on front passenger seat
NISSAN recommends that infants or small children
be seated in a child restraint system on the rear seat
if available. According to accident statistics, chil-
dren are safer when properly restrained in the rear
seat rather than in the front seat.
Front passenger air bag:
Your vehicle is equipped with a front passenger air
bag, you will find an air bag warning label attached
to the passenger side of the instrument panel as
shown in the previous illustration.
This label warns:
“Extreme Hazard! Do not use a rearward facing
child restraint on a seat protected by an air bag
in front of it!”
This label warns NOT to fit a rearward facing child
restraint on the front passenger seat without first
deactivating the front passenger air bag.
For instructions on deactivating the front passenger
air bag see “Front passenger air bag deactivation
system” later in this section.
When installing child restraints in your vehicle, al-
ways carefully observe the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions.For more details on the installation of child restraints,
see also “Child restraints” later in this section.
Side air bags:
Your vehicle is equipped with side air bags. You will
find a side air bag warning label attached to the
vehicle’s interior as shown in the previous illustra-
tion.
This label warns you not to let infants or small chil-
dren sit on the front passenger seat as the air bag
may cause serious injury in case of deployment dur-
ing a collision.
AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT
The Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) air bag
warning light, displayingin the instrument
panel, monitors the circuits of the front air bag sys-
tem, the side and curtain air bag systems and the
pre-tensioner seat belt system. The circuits moni-
tored by the SRS air bag warning light are: all sen-
sors, air bag modules and all related wiring, and the
pre-tensioner seat belt. After turning the ignition switch to the ON or
START position, the supplemental air bag warn-
ing light illuminates. The air bag warning light will
turn off after approximately 7 seconds if the sys-
tem is operational.
Take your vehicle to the nearest NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop to have the air bag systems and
pre-tensioner seat belt serviced if the SRS air bag
warning light:
Remains on after approximately 7 seconds
Flashes intermittently
Does not come on at all
Under these conditions, the front air bags, side and
curtain air bags and/or pre-tensioner seat belt will
not operate properly. They must be checked and
repaired.
Repair and replacement procedure
The front air bags, side air bags, curtain air bags,
and pre-tensioner seat belt system are designed to
activate on a one-time-only basis. As a reminder,
unless it is damaged, the air bag warning light will
remain illuminated after inflation has occurred. Re-
pair and replacement of the air bag system should
be done only by a NISSAN dealer or qualified work-
shop.
When maintenance work is required on the vehicle,
the air bag systems, related parts and pre-tensioner
seat belt should be pointed out to the person con-

NOTE
A low fuel warning comes on in the vehicle infor- mation display and the Low fuel indicator light
comes on in the combination meter when the
fuel level is getting low. Refuel as soon as it is
convenient. There should be a small reserve of
fuel in the tank when the fuel gauge needle
reaches the empty level.
CAUTION
Refill the fuel tank before the gauge registers
empty.
TACHOMETER
The tachometer indicates the engine speed in revo-
lutions per minute (r/min).
Do not rev the engine
into the red zone

WARNING/INDICATOR LIGHTS AND AUDIBLE REMINDERS
Instruments and controls2-3

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine burns-off the accumulated carbon. This regenera-
tion process is normally automatic and not visible to
the driver.
Regeneration restrictions:
Driving conditions such as frequent short journeys
or stop/start driving can result in excessive build up
of carbon in the filter. When this happens the DPF
warning light will illuminate (and a message will ap-
pear in the vehicle information display, see “Vehicle
information display” later in this section) to inform
you that the vehicle must be driven in a particular
manner to begin regeneration.
When the DPF warning light is illuminated, provided
that legal and safety conditions allow, the vehicle
should be driven at a speed of over 60 km/h (37.5
MPH) until the DPF warning light turns off. This pro-
cess can take up to 30 minutes to complete.
If regeneration fails:
Failure to react to the DPF warning light may lead to
saturation of the DPF system. If this happens the
Malfunction Indicator (MI)
will illuminate indi-
cating that a Service Regeneration by a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop is required. The engine
speed may also be limited to 3,000 rpm to protect
the DPF system.
NOTE
Contact a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop
to perform a forced regeneration.
Electronic Power Assisted
Steering (EPAS) warning light
When the ignition switch is turned to the ON posi-
tion, the EPAS warning light illuminates. This means
the system is operational.
If the warning light remains illuminated after the en-
gine has been started, there will be no power steer-
ing assistance: the vehicle may be driven using the
mechanical steering system although it is not rec-
ommended as the effort required to turn the steer-
ing wheel will be significantly increased compared
to normal operation.
WARNING
If the EPAS warning light illuminates while
driving, stop as soon as safely possible.
In certain circumstances, factors external to
the EPAS system may contribute to the illumi-
nation of the warning light. If the warning light
illuminates, stop the vehicle as soon as safely
possible if driving, turn the ignition switch to
the “OFF” position for approximately 20 sec-
onds and then turn the ignition switch to the
ON position again. If the light remains illumi-
nated, we recommend that you contact a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
See “Power steering system” in the “5. Starting and
driving” section for further details on the EPAS sys-
tem.

This light warns of low engine oil pressure. If the
light flickers or comes on during normal driving, or
stays on once the engine is started, pull off the road
at a safe area, stop the engine immediatelyand call
a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.
CAUTION
Running the engine with the engine oil pressure
warning light on could cause serious damage to
the engine.
NOTE
The [Оil lеvеll оw] message indication is dis-
played for 5 seconds after the ignition switch has
been turned to the ON position. See “Vehicle in-
formation display” later in this section.
Front passenger air bag
deactivated (OFF) warning light
When the ignition switch is turned to the ON posi-
tion the front passenger air bag deactivated (OFF)
warning light
, located in the combination
meter, illuminates for approximately 7 seconds and
then goes off. This means the system is operational.
The light warns of front passenger air bag status. If
the front passenger air bag has been deactivated,
the light comes on and stays on as long as the front
passenger air bag switch remains in the OFF posi-
tion.
Instruments and controls2-5

Downloaded from www.Manualslib.com manuals search engine Malfunction warning light (red)
(where fitted)
When the ignition switch is turned to the ON posi-
tion, the malfunction warning light illuminates. This
means the system is operational.
See “Malfunction Indicator light” later in this section
for details of the orange Malfunction Indicator light.
If the red malfunction warning light comes on steady
while the engine is running, it may indicate an en-
gine control system malfunction.
Have your vehicle inspected by a NISSAN dealer or
qualified workshop. You do not need to have your
vehicle towed to the dealer.
CAUTION
Continued vehicle operation without having the
engine control system checked and repaired as
necessary could lead to poor driveability,
reduced fuel economy and possible damage to
the engine control system, which may affect your
warranty coverage.
