ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE
GAUGE
The gauge indicates the engine coolant tempera-
ture. The engine coolant temperature should remain
within the normal range
j2.
The engine coolant temperature varies with the out-
side air temperature and driving conditions.
CAUTION
If the gauge exceeds the normal range, stop as
soon as it is safely possible. If the engine has
overheated, continued operation of the vehicle
may seriously damage the engine. See “Engine
overheat” in the “6. In case of emergency” sec-
tion for immediate action.
WARNING
Allow the engine to cool down before removing
the radiator cap to avoid the danger of being
scalded.
INSTRUMENT PANEL BRIGHTNESS
CONTROL
The instrument brightness control switch can be op-
erated when the ignition switch is in the ON posi-
tion. When the switch is operated, the brightness
adjustment mode appears at the bottom of the ve-
hicle information display.Push the + side of the switch
j2 to brighten the
meter panel lights and instrument panel lights. The
bar
j1 moves to the + side.
Push the - side of the switch
j2 to dim the lights.
The barj1 moves to the − side.
When the instrument brightness control is not oper-
ated for a few seconds the brightness adjustment
mode no longer appears.

25. [Reminder turn off headlights]
warning
This warning appears when the driver side door is
opened while the headlight switch is left ON and the
ignition switch is placed in the ACC, “OFF” or
LOCK position. Place the headlight switch in “OFF”
or “AUTO” position. For additional information, see
“Headlight and turn signal switch” later in this sec-
tion.
26. [Time for a driver break?] indicator
This indicator appears when the set “TIMER” indi-
cator activates. You can set the time for up to 6
hours.
27. [Low outside temperature] warning
This warning appears if the outside temperature is
below 3°C (37°F). The warning can be set not to be
displayed. (See “[Clock] and [outside air
temperature]” later in this section or the separate
NissanConnect Owner’s manual.)
28. [Chassis control system fault]
warning
This warning appears if the chassis control module
detects an error in the Chassis Control System
(where fitted). Have the system checked by a
NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop. (See “Chas-
sis control” in the “5. Starting and driving” section.)
29. Cruise control indicator
This indicator shows the cruise control system sta-
tus. The status is shown by the colour.
See “Cruise control (where fitted)” in the “5. Start-
ing and driving” section for details.
30. Speed limiter indicator
This indicator shows the status of the speed limiter
system . If the system is in turned on and in use, the
speed that the speed limiter is set to is also dis-
played.
See “Speed limiter (where fitted)” in the “5. Starting
and driving” section for details.
31. Shift lever position indicator
This indicator shows the shift lever position.
See “Shift lever indicator (where fitted)” in the
“5. Starting and driving” section for further details.
32. [Tyre Pressure System Fault]
warning
This warning illuminates when there is a problem
with the Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS).
If this warning comes on, have the system checked
by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop. See
“Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)” in the
“5. Starting and driving” section for further details.
33. [Resetting Tyre Pressure System]
indicator
This warning illuminates when the TPMS tempera-
ture calibration is in progress. See “TPMS tempera-
ture calibration” in the “5. Starting and driving” sec-
tion for further details.
34. [Parking Sensor System Fault]
warning (where fitted)
This warning illuminates when there is a problem
with the parking sensor system. If this warning
comes on, have the system checked by a NISSAN
dealer or qualified workshop.
35. [Vehicle Overheating Stop Vehicle]
warning
This warning illuminates is the engine coolant tem-
perature is too high, indicating that the engine is
overheating. See “Engine overheat” in the “6. In
case of emergency” section for further details.
36. [CVT System Fault] warning
(where fitted)
This warning illuminates when there is a problem
with the XTRONIC transmission (CVT) system. If
this warning comes on, have the system checked by
a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop.

Operating tips
•In order to improve the heater operation, clear
any snow and ice from the wiper blade and air
inlet in front of the windscreen.
•After parking in the sun, drive for two or three
minutes with the windows open to vent hot air
from the passenger compartment. Then close
the windows to allow the acceleration of the air
conditioner’s cooling operation.
•Keep the windows closed while the air condi-
tioner is operating.
•The air conditioning system should be operated
for about 10 minutes, at least once a month. This
helps prevent damage to the system due to lack
of lubrication.
•If the coolant temperature gauge exceeds the
“HOT” position, 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.

Heating and defogging (Manual mode):
This mode heats the interior and defogs the wind-
screen.
Use the airflow control buttons to select the
button is pressed. Switch on the air-conditioning to
improve the defogging and adjust the preferred fan
speed and temperature.
Fan speed control
m(Manual mode):
Press the fan speed control buttons to adjust the fan
speed.
Press the AUTO button to change the fan speed to
automatic mode.
Air recirculation:
Use this mode to recirculate interior air inside the
passenger compartment in situations such as driv-
ing on a dust raised road, avoiding traffic fumes or
having maximum cooling from the air conditioner.
Press the<
>button to recirculate interior air.
The indicator light illuminates and the air conditioner
will automatically come on.
When the air recirculation mode is switched off, out-
side air is drawn into the passenger compartment.
Outside air circulation :
Use this mode to draw outside air into the passen-
ger compartment for normal heating, ventilation or
air conditioner operation.
Press the<
>button to change the air intake
from the air recirculation to the outside air mode.
The indicator light (
) turns off.To turn the system on/off:
Press the “ON/OFF” button to turn the system on or
off.
Operating tips
•In order to improve the heater operation, clear
the snow and ice from the wiper blade and air
inlet in front of the windscreen.
•When the engine coolant temperature and out-
side air temperature are low, the airflow from the
floor outlets may not operate for a maximum of
150 seconds. However, this is not a malfunction.
After the coolant temperature has warmed up,
the airflow from the floor outlets will operate nor-
mally.
•After parking in the sun, drive for two or three
minutes with the windows open to vent hot air
from the passenger compartment. Then, close
the windows. This will allow the acceleration of
the air conditioner’s cooling operation.
•Keep windows closed while the air conditioner is
operating.
•The air conditioning system should be operated
for about 10 minutes, at least once a month. This
helps prevent damage to the system due to lack
of lubrication.
•If the coolant temperature gauge exceeds the
“HOT” position, 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.
Air conditioner filter
The air conditioning system is equipped with a filter
which collects dirt, pollen, dust, etc. To make sure
the 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 airflow is ex-
tremely reduced or when the windows fog up
easily while operating the heater or air condition-
ing system.
Servicing air conditioner
The air conditioning system in your NISSAN vehicle
is charged with an environmentally friendly refriger-
ant.
NISSAN Blue Citizenship
This refrigerant will not harm the earth’s ozone
layer.
Special charging equipment and lubricant are re-
quired when servicing the NISSAN air conditioner.
Using improper refrigerants or lubricants will cause
severe damage to the air conditioning system. See
“Capacities and recommended fuel/lubricants” in
the “9. Technical information” section.
A NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop will be able
to service the air conditioning system.
