1.Check the brake fluid level. Add brake fluid
as necessary. See ``Brake fluid'' in the
``Do-it-yourself'' section of this manual.
2. If the brake fluid level is correct, have the
warning system checked by an autho-
rized NISSAN dealer.
WARNING
cYour 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 care-
fully to the nearest service station
for repairs. Otherwise, have your ve-
hicle towed.
cPressing the brake pedal with the
engine stopped and/or low brake
fluid level may increase your stop-
ping distance and braking will re-
quire greater pedal effort as well as
pedal travel.
cIf the brake fluid level is below the
minimum mark on the brake fluid
reservoir, do not drive until the brake
system has been checked at an au-
thorized NISSAN dealer.
ABSorAnti-lock brake
warning light
If the light comes on while the engine is
running, it may indicate something is wrong
with the anti-lock portion of the brake sys-
tem. Have the system checked by an autho-
rized NISSAN dealer.
If a malfunction occurs in the system, the
anti-lock function turns off, but the brakes
continue to operate normally.
If the light comes on while you are driv-
ing, contact an authorized NISSAN
dealer for repair.
Overdrive off indicator light
This light comes on during driving when the
overdrive switch is pressed to prevent over-
drive operation.
The O/D OFF indicator light comes on for
two seconds each time the ignition key is
turned ON. This shows the light is function-
ing properly.
If the O/D OFF indicator light blinks for
approximately 8 seconds after coming on for
2 seconds, have an authorized NISSANdealer check the transmission and repair it if
necessary.
The automatic transmission is equipped
with an electronic Fail-Safe mode. This sys-
tem allows the vehicle to be driven even in
the event of damage to the electrical cir-
cuits. If this occurs, the gears automatically
engage and lock into third gear.
NOTE: See ``Fail-safe'' in the ``Starting and
driving'' section of this manual before visit-
ing an authorized NISSAN dealer.
Turn signal/hazard indicator
lights
The appropriate light flashes when the turn
signal lever is activated.
Both lights flash when the hazard switch is
turned on.
High beam indicator light
This light comes on when the headlight high
beam is on and goes out when the low
beam is selected.
Cruise indicator light

The theft warning system provides audio
and visual alarm signals if parts of the
vehicle are disturbed.
How to activate the theft warning
system
1. Close all windows.
2. Remove the key from the ignition switch.
3. Close all doors and the hood.
4. Push the
button on the multi-remote
controller. All doors lock. The hazard
lights flash twice and the horn beeps
once to indicate all doors are locked.cWhen the
button is pushed with all
doors locked, the hazard lights flash
twice and the horn beeps once as a
reminder that the doors are already
locked.
The horn may or may not beep once.
Refer to ``silencing the horn beep fea-
ture'' later in this section.
The system can be activated even if the
windows are open.
5. Confirm that the SECURITY indicator
light comes on. The SECURITY light
glows for about 30 seconds and then
begins to flash once every three seconds.
The system is now activated. If, during
this 30-second time period, the door is
unlocked by the key or the multi-remote
controller, or the ignition key is turned to
ACC or ON, the system will not activate.
If the key is turned slowly when locking
the door, the system may not activate.
Furthermore, if the key is turned exces-
sively to the unlock position, the system
may be deactivated when the key is re-
moved. If the indicator light fails to glow
for 30 seconds, unlock the door once
and lock it again.Even when the driver and/or passengers
are in the vehicle, the system will acti-
vate with all doors, hood and trunk lid
locked and ignition key off. Turn the
ignition key to ACC or ON to turn the
system off.

reactivates if the vehicle is tampered with
again. The alarm can be shut off by
unlocking a door with the key or by
pressing the
button on the multi-
remote controller.
The alarm is activated when:
ca door is unlocked or opened without
using the key or the multi-remote control-
ler. This includes unlocking the doors

Your vehicle's engine should be turned
off while programming your transmit-
ter. The Integrated HomeLinkTUniver-
sal Transceiver may not work with
older garage door openers that do not
meet current Federal Consumer Safety
Standards.
1. Test the Integrated HomeLinkTUniversal
Transceiver by pressing any button. The
red indicator light should come on. If you
have previously programmed a button
proceed to step 3.
2. Clear all channels on the Integrated
HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver by
holding down both outside buttons (#1 &
#3) until the red light begins to flash
rapidly (approximately 20 seconds).
Then release both buttons.
3. Select which of the three Integrated
HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver but-
tons you want to program.
4. Hold your hand-held transmitter against
the bottom surface of the Integrated
HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver so
that you can still see the red indicator
light.5. Press the desired button until the red
indicator light flashes slowly. Do not re-
lease the button. Continue holding and
press the hand-held transmitter button
through step 6.
6. Hold down both buttons until the red
indicator light on the Integrated
HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver
flashes rapidly (This may take 1 to 90
seconds). Then release both buttons.
The rapid flashing means that the trans-
ceiver has been successfully pro-
grammed to match your hand-held trans-
mitter. You can now use the Integrated
HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver in-
stead of your hand-held transmitter.
Note to Canadian users:
Prior to 1992, D.O.C. regulations required
many hand-held transmitters to stop trans-
mitting after one or two seconds, even
though you continue to hold down the but-
ton. If you think you have one of these
hand-held transmitters, you should press
and re-press the transmitter button every 2
seconds without ever releasing the Inte-
grated HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver
button. The indicator light on the Integrated
HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver shouldblink rapidly indicating a successful pro-
gramming procedure. If it returns to the slow
blink of program mode, continue to periodi-
cally reactivate your hand-held transmitter
until a successful programming procedure
is indicated by the rapidly flashing indicator
light.
OPERATING THE TRANSCEIVER
To operate, simply press the appropriate
button on the Integrated HomeLinkTUniver-
sal Transceiver. The red indicator light illu-
minates while the signal is being transmit-
ted. The effective transmission range of the
Integrated HomeLinkTUniversal Trans-
ceiver may differ from your hand-held trans-
mitter.
PROGRAMMING PROBLEM
DIAGNOSIS
Be sure to keep your original hand-held
transmitter for possible reprogramming if
necessary.
cMake sure batteries in the hand-held
transmitter are fully charged.
cHold your hand-held transmitter against
the bottom surface of the Integrated
HomeLinkTUniversal Transceiver so
