without starting the engine. The following lights
will come on (if so equipped):
,or,,,,
The following lights come on briefly and then go
off (if so equipped):
,or,,,,,,
If any light does not come on, it may indicate a
burned-out bulb or an open circuit in the
electrical system. Have the system checked by
a NISSAN dealer.
Some indicators and warnings are also dis-
played on the dot matrix crystal display on the
speedometer. (See “Dot matrix liquid crystal
display” (P.2-18) .)
WARNING LIGHTSGUID-0B8BE9BD-DD2D-42CD-9609-77C89F9DAADE
orAnti-lock Braking System
(ABS) warning light
GUID-655F063D-167E-412E-A492-9EB6E0A36B2BWhen the ignition switch is in the ON position,
the Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning
light illuminates and then turns off. This indicates
the ABS is operational.
If the ABS warning light illuminates while the
engine is running, or while driving, it may
indicate the ABS is not functioning properly.
Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer.
If an ABS malfunction occurs, the anti-lock
function is turned off. The brake system then
operates normally, but without anti-lock assis-
tance. (See “Brake system” (P.5-29).)
Blind Spot Warning (BSW) system
warning light (if so equipped)
GUID-6C8CB008-F4A8-4527-8F23-28CFC71360B7If the light comes on and remains on, it may
indicate that the BSW system is not functioning
properly. Although the vehicle is still driveable,
have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer.
See “Blind Spot Warning (BSW) system” (P.5-
17).
orBrake warning lightGUID-D41A90B4-BBBD-4A13-A28B-2B6354F7D9CFThis light functions for both the parking brake
and the foot brake systems.
Parking brake indicator:
GUID-D73A39BF-43C8-459F-9C24-47B7F579C407When the ignition switch is in the ON position,
the light comes on when the parking brake is
applied.
Low brake fluid warning light:
GUID-D73A39BF-43C8-459F-9C24-47B7F579C407When the ignition switch is 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 applied, stop the vehicle
and perform the following:
1. Check the brake fluid level. Add brake fluid
as necessary. (See “Brake fluid” (P.8-12) .)
2. If the brake fluid level is correct, have the warning system checked by a NISSAN
dealer.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning
indicator:
GUID-D73A39BF-43C8-459F-9C24-47B7F579C407When the parking brake is released and the
brake fluid level is sufficient, if both the brake
warning light and the Anti-lock Braking System
(ABS) warning light illuminate, it may indicate
the ABS is not functioning properly. Have the
brake system checked, and if necessary re-
paired, by a NISSAN dealer promptly. (See

Unless checked and repaired, the Supplemental
Restraint Systems (air bag systems) and/or the
pretensioners may not function properly.
For additional information, see “Supplemental
restraint system” (P.1-47) .
WARNING
If the supplemental air bag warning
light is on, it could mean that the front
air bag, side air bag, curtain air bag
and/or pretensioner systems will not
operate in an accident. To help avoid
injury to yourself or others, have your
vehicle checked by a NISSAN dealer as
soon as possible.
Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)
warning light
GUID-AE9CC0E0-4545-43E8-B644-9AA218EEAC08The light will blink when the Vehicle Dynamic
Control (VDC) system or the traction control
system is operating, thus alerting the driver that
the vehicle is nearing its traction limits. The road
surface may be slippery.
If the VDC warning light comes on and stays on
while the VDC system is on, this light alerts the
driver to the fact that the VDC system’s fail-safe
mode is operating, for example the VDC system may not be functioning properly. Have the
system checked by a NISSAN dealer. If a
malfunction occurs in the system, the VDC
system function will be canceled but the vehicle
is still driveable. For additional information, see
“Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) system” (P.5-
31).

Cruise malfunction:
GUID-D73A39BF-43C8-459F-9C24-47B7F579C407If the cruise indicator light blinks while the
engine is running, it may indicate the cruise
control system is not functioning properly. Have
the system checked by a NISSAN dealer. (See “Cruise control” (P.5-24).)
Exterior light indicatorGUID-DF342439-0FE3-4496-9A16-C533B45E0A28This indicator illuminates when the headlight
switch is turned to the AUTO (if so equipped) ,

Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)GUID-1C68E634-2F16-4A6B-85E1-536C36C54FC0If the malfunction indicator light comes on
steady or blinks while the engine is running, it
may indicate a potential emission control mal-
function.
The malfunction indicator light may also come on
steady if the fuel-filler cap is loose or missing, or
if the vehicle runs out of fuel. Check to make
sure the fuel-filler cap is installed and closed
tightly, and that the vehicle has at least 3 US
gallons (11.4 liters) of fuel in the fuel tank.
After a few driving trips, the
light should
turn off if no other potential emission control
system malfunction exists.
If this indicator light remains on for 20 seconds
and then blinks for 10 seconds when the engine
is not running, it indicates that the vehicle is not
ready for an emission control system inspection/
maintenance test. (See “Readiness for inspec-
tion/maintenance (I/M) test” (P.9-27).)
Operation:
GUID-D73A39BF-43C8-459F-9C24-47B7F579C407The malfunction indicator light will come on in
one of two ways:
. Malfunction indicator light on steady — An
emission control system has been detected.
Check the fuel-filler cap if the LOOSE FUEL
CAP warning appears on the dot matrix
liquid crystal display. If the fuel-filler cap is loose or missing, tighten or install the cap
and continue to drive the vehicle. The
light should turn off after a few driving trips.
If the
light does not turn off after a few
driving trips, have the vehicle inspected by a
NISSAN dealer. You do not need to have
your vehicle towed to the dealer.
. Malfunction indicator light blinking — An
engine misfire has been detected which may
damage the emission control system.
To reduce or avoid emission control system
damage:
a) Do not drive at speeds above 45 MPH (72
km/h) .
b) Avoid hard acceleration or deceleration.
c) Avoid steep uphill grades.
d) If possible, reduce the amount of cargo being hauled or towed.
The malfunction indicator light may stop
blinking and remain on.
Have the vehicle inspected by a NISSAN
dealer. You do not need to have your vehicle
towed to the dealer.
CAUTION
Continued vehicle operation without
having the emission control system
and repaired as necessary could lead to poor driveability, reduced fuel econ-
omy, and possible damage to the emis-
sion control system.
Overdrive off indicator lightGUID-B248403A-7160-4641-9641-C1D42F7AEF5DThe overdrive off indicator light illuminates when
the overdrive off mode is selected.
For additional information, see “Continuously
Variable Transmission (CVT)” (P.5-13) of this
manual.
Security indicator lightGUID-ECFD3652-2277-449D-95FC-FDE76A31BDDEThe light blinks when the ignition switch is in the
ACC, OFF or LOCK position. This function
indicates the security system equipped on the
vehicle is operational.
If the security system is malfunctioning, this light
will remain on while the ignition switch is in the
ON position. For additional information, see
“Security systems” (P.2-27) .
Turn signal/hazard indicator lightsGUID-DEC39268-26DF-4838-A9EA-6A903EF57EBBThe light flashes when the turn signal switch
lever or hazard switch is turned on.

opened while the ignition switch is pushed to
the ACC position. Make sure the ignition switch
is pushed to the OFF position, and take the
Intelligent Key with you when leaving the vehicle.
Light reminder chimeGUID-BFB5E744-D2B8-408B-834A-688BCF472327A chime will sound when the driver side door is
opened with the light switch in the

or OFF position.
Turn the light switch off when you leave the
vehicle.
Models with Autolight system:
The chime will also sound for 2 seconds when
the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position
with the fog lights on while the headlight switch
is in the AUTO position.
Parking brake reminder chimeGUID-B170CCAE-51B0-4C2A-93DA-57D00974E4A8The chime will sound if the vehicle is driven at
more than 4 MPH (7 km/h) with the parking
brake applied. Stop the vehicle and release the
parking brake.
Brake pad wear warningGUID-11093B54-7D84-4D73-B07E-6FB94DF62F91The disc brake pads have audible wear warn-
ings. When a brake pad requires replacement, it
will make a high pitched scraping sound when
the vehicle is in motion. This scraping sound will
first occur only when the brake pedal is
depressed. After more wear of the brake pad,
the sound will always be heard even if the brake
pedal is not depressed. Have the brakes
checked as soon as possible if the warning
sound is heard.
