GLOVE BOX
The “Instruments and controls” section of the
Model Year 2014 Rogue Owner’s Manual de-
scribes the feature of locking and unlocking the
glove box. The description of this operation is an
error. This operation is not an available feature of
the Model Year 2014 Rogue. The Owner’s
Manual references to the operation of locking
and unlocking the glove box should be disre-
garded wherever they appear. NISSAN apolo-
gizes for any confusion this inadvertent printing
error may have caused.
OPENING WINDOWS
The “Pre-driving checks and adjustments” sec-
tion of the Model Year 2014 Rogue Owner’s
Manual describes the feature of opening the front
power windows by pressing and holding the UN-
LOCK button on the intelligent key fob. The de-
scription of this operation is an error. This opera-
tion is not an available feature of the Model Year
2014 Rogue. The Owner’s Manual references to
the operation of opening the front power win-
dows by pressing the holding the UNLOCK but-
ton on the intelligent key fob should be disre-
garded wherever they appear. NISSAN
apologizes for any confusion this inadvertent
printing error may have caused.
HOW TO SWITCH THE DISPLAY
With the ignition switch in the ON position, press
the CAMERA button or move the shift lever to the
R (Reverse) position to operate the Around View
Monitor.
The Around View Monitor displays different split
screen views depending on the position of the
shift lever. Press the CAMERA button to switch
between the available views.
If the shift lever is in the R (Reverse) position, the
available views are:
●Rear view/bird’s-eye view split screen
●Rear view/front-side view split screen
If the shift lever is in the P (Park) position, the
available views are:
●Front view/bird’s-eye view split screen
●Front view/front-side view split screen
The display will switch from the Around View
Monitor screen when:
●The shift lever is in the D (Drive) position and
the vehicle speed increases above approxi-
mately 6 mph (10 km/h)
●A different screen is selected.If any malfunction occurs in the AWD system
while the engine is running, the master warning
light will come on.
The master warning light may illuminate while
trying to free a stuck vehicle due to high pow-
ertrain oil temperature. The driving mode may
change to 2WD. AUTO mode may change to
LOCK mode before the warning light illuminates.
If the master warning light illuminates during op-
eration, stop the vehicle with the engine idling in a
safe place immediately.
Then if the light turns off after a while, you can
continue driving.
A large difference between the diameters of the
front and rear wheels will make the warning light
illuminate. Pull off the road in a safe area and idle
the engine. Check that all tire sizes are the same,
tire pressure is correct, and the tires are not worn.
CAUTION
●If the warning light remains on after the
above operation, have your vehicle
checked by a NISSAN dealer as soon as
possible.
ALL-WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) (if so
equipped)

●If the warning light comes on while driv-
ing, there may be a malfunction in the
AWD system.
Reduce the vehicle speed and have your
vehicle checked by a NISSAN dealer as
soon as possible.
●The powertrain may be damaged if you
continue driving with the warning light
illuminated.
●Never drive on dry, hard surface roads in
the LOCK mode, as this will overload
the powertrain and may cause a serious
malfunction.
WARNING
●For AWD equipped vehicles, do not at-
tempt to raise two wheels off the
ground and shift the transmission to
any drive or reverse position with the
engine running. Doing so may result in
drivetrain damage or unexpected ve-
hicle movement which could result in
serious vehicle damage or personal
injury.●Do not attempt to test an AWD
equipped vehicle on a 2–wheel dyna-
mometer (such as the dynamometers
used by some states for emissions test-
ing) or similar equipment even if the
other two wheels are raised off the
ground. Make sure that you inform the
test facility personnel that your vehicle
is equipped with AWD before it is
placed on a dynamometer. Using the
wrong test equipment may result in
drive train damage or unexpected ve-
hicle movement which could result in
serious vehicle damage or personal
injury.
ALL-WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) LOCK

AWD mode Wheels driven AWD LOCK indicator light Use conditions
AUTODistribution of torque to
the front and rear wheels
changes automatically,
depending on road condi-
tions encountered [100:0]

For driving on rough
roads.
*1 When the rotation difference between the front and rear wheels is large, the AWD mode may change
from AUTO to LOCK for a while, however, this is not a malfunction.
*2 The LOCK mode will change to AUTO mode automatically when the vehicle has been driven at a
high speed. The AWD LOCK indicator light turns off.
*3 LOCK mode will automatically be cancelled when the ignition switch is turned to the OFF position.●The AWD torque distribution between the
front and rear wheels can be displayed in the
video information display.
●If the AWD LOCK switch is operated while
accelerating or decelerating, or if the ignition
switch is turned off, you may feel a jolt. This
is normal.
●The oil temperature of the powertrain parts
will increase if the vehicle is continuously
operated under conditions where the differ-
ence in rotation between the front and rear
wheels is large (wheel slip) , such as when
driving the vehicle on rough roads, through
sand or mud, or freeing a stuck vehicle. In
these cases, the master warning light illumi-
nates and the AWD mode changes to 2WD
to protect the powertrain parts. Stop driving
with the engine idling and wait until the
warning light turns off and the AWD returns
to the AUTO mode. If the warning light re-
mains on, have your vehicle checked by a
NISSAN dealer as soon as possible.

orAnti-lock BrakingSystem (ABS)
warning light
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the ABS warning light illuminates and
then turns off. This indicates the ABS is opera-
tional.
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 nor-
mally, but without anti-lock assistance. See “Brake
system” in the “Starting and driving” section.
orBrake warning light
This light functions for both the parking brake and
the foot brake systems. 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 applied, stop the ve-
hicle and perform the following:
1. Check the brake fluid level. Add brake fluid as necessary. Refer to “Brake fluid” in the
“Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section of
this manual.
2. If the brake fluid level is correct, have the warning system checked by a NISSAN
dealer.
WARNING
●Your brake system may not be working
properly if the warning light is on. Driv-
ing could be dangerous. If you judge it
to be safe, drive carefully to the nearest
service station for repairs. Otherwise,
have your vehicle towed because driv-
ing it could be dangerous.
● Pressing the brake pedal with the en-
gine stopped and/or a low brake fluid
level may increase your stopping dis-
tance and braking will require 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 at a
NISSAN dealer.
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning
indicator
When 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, repaired by a
NISSAN dealer promptly. Avoid high-speed driv-
ing and abrupt braking. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)
warning light” in this section.
Charge warning light
If this light comes on while the engine is running,
it may indicate the charging system is not func-
tioning properly. Turn the engine off and check
the generator belt. If the belt is loose, broken,
missing, or if the light remains on, see a NISSAN
dealer immediately.
2-10Instruments and controls

●If the light illuminates while driving,
avoid sudden steering maneuvers or
abrupt braking, reduce vehicle speed,
pull off the road to a safe location and
stop the vehicle as soon as possible.
Driving with under-inflated tires may per-
manently damage the tires and increase
the likelihood of tire failure. Serious ve-
hicle damage could occur and may lead
to an accident and could result in serious
personal injury. Check the tire pressure
for all four tires. Adjust the tire pressure
to the recommended COLD tire pressure
shown on the Tire and Loading Informa-
tion label located in the driver’s door
opening to turn the low tire pressure
warning light OFF. If the light still illumi-
nates while driving after adjusting the
tire pressure, a tire may be flat. If you
have a flat tire, replace it with a spare tire
as soon as possible.
● When a spare tire is mounted or a wheel
is replaced tire pressure will not be in-
dicated, the TPMS will not function and
the low tire pressure warning light will
flash for approximately 1 minute. The
light will remain on after 1 minute. Con-
tact your NISSAN dealer as soon as
possible for tire replacement and/or
system resetting. ●
Replacing tires with those not originally
specified by NISSAN could affect the
proper operation of the TPMS.
CAUTION
● The TPMS is not a substitute for the
regular tire pressure check. Be sure to
check the tire pressure regularly.
● If the vehicle is being driven at speeds
of less than 16 MPH (25 km/h), the
TPMS may not operate correctly.
● Be sure to install the specified size of
tires to the 4 wheels correctly.
