CAUTION
If the gauge indicates coolant tempera-
ture near the hot (H) end of the normal
range, reduce vehicle speed to decrease
temperature. If the gauge is over the nor-
mal range, stop the vehicle as soon as
safely possible. If the engine is over-
heated, continued operation of the vehicle
may seriously damage the engine. For ad-
ditional information, refer to “If your ve-
hicle overheats” in the “In case of emer-
gency” section of this manual for
immediate action required.
FUEL GAUGE
The gauge indicates theapproximatefuel level
in the tank.
The gauge may move slightly during braking,
turning, acceleration, or going up or down hills.
The gauge needle returns to 0 (Empty) after the
ignition switch is placed in the OFF position.
The low fuel warning light comes on when the
amount of fuel in the tank is getting low.
Refill the fuel tank before the gauge regis-
ters 0 (Empty) . The

CAUTION
●This gauge is not designed to indicate
low engine oil level. Use the dipstick to
check the oil level. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Engine oil” in the “Do-
it-yourself” section of this manual.
● If the gauge needle does not move with
the proper amount of engine oil, it is
recommended that you have the vehicle
checked by a NISSAN dealer. Continued
vehicle operation in such a condition
could cause serious damage to the
engine.
Engine oil temperature gauge
This gauge measures the temperature of the en-
gine oil.
Voltmeter
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the voltmeter indicates the battery volt-
age. When the engine is running, it indicates the
generator voltage. While cranking the engine, the volts drop below
the normal range. If the range is not within the
normal range (11 – 15 volts) while the engine is
running, it may indicate that the charging system
is not functioning properly. Have the system
checked. It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID (DEF)
LEVEL (if so equipped)
This gauge measures the DEF level remaining in
the vehicle. For additional information, refer to
“Fuel and refueling” in the “Titan Diesel Owner’s
Supplement”.

Malfunction Indicator Light(MIL) (yellow) (For Gas
engines only)
If this indicator light comes on steady or blinks
while the engine is running, it may indicate a
potential emission control malfunction.
If this indicator light comes on steady for 20 sec-
onds 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. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Readiness for
inspection/maintenance (I/M) test” in the “Tech-
nical and consumer information” section of this
manual. Operation
The MIL will come on in one of two ways:
● MIL on steady — An emission control system
malfunction has been detected. Check the
fuel-filler cap. If the LOOSE FUEL CAP
warning message (if so equipped) is dis-
played in the odometer, and the fuel-filler
cap is loose or missing, tighten or install the
cap and continue to drive the vehicle.
The

Low Fuel
This warning illuminates when the fuel level in the
fuel tank is getting low. Refuel as soon as it is
convenient, preferably before the fuel gauge
reaches 0 (Empty) .There will be a small re-
serve of fuel in the tank when the fuel
gauge needle reaches 0 (Empty) .
Oil Level Low (For Diesel engines only)
If the Oil Level Low indicator is displayed, the
engine oil level is low. If the low level reminder is
displayed, check the level using the engine oil
dipstick.

refer to “Extended storage switch” in the “Instru-
ments and controls” section of this manual.
Push brake and start button to drive
This indicator appears when the shift lever is in
the P (Park) position.
This indicator means that the engine will start by
pushing the ignition switch with the brake pedal
depressed. You can start the engine from any
position of the ignition switch.
Remote Engine Start Mode (if so
equipped)
This warning appears in the vehicle information
display when the vehicle has been started using
the remote start function. To start the vehicle,
apply the brake and place the ignition switch in
the ON position.
Brightness indicator
This indicator appears when the vehicle informa-
tion display screen brightness is being adjusted.
Low Outside Temperature
This warning appears if the outside temperature
is below 37°F (3°C) . The temperature can be
changed to display in Celsius or Fahrenheit. For
additional information, refer to “Settings” in this
section.Shift to Park
This warning illuminates when the ignition switch
is in the ACC or OFF position and the shift lever
is not in the P (Park) position. Also, a chime
sounds when the ignition switch is in the ACC or
OFF position.
If this warning illuminates, move the shift lever to
the P (Park) position and start the engine.
Low Fuel Pressure Service Fuel System
This warning appears when the fuel pressure is
low. Check the fuel level and refuel if needed. If
the warning remains illuminated, have the system
checked. It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service. For additional
information, refer to “Diesel fuel system” in the
“Introduction” of the “Titan Diesel Owner’s
Manual”.

DIESEL FUEL ENGINES
For additional information, refer to the separate
Titan Diesel Owner’s Manual.
GASOLINE FUEL ENGINES

– Keep the pump nozzle in contactwith the container while you are fill-
ing it.
– Use only approved portable fuel con- tainers for flammable liquid.

LOOSE FUEL CAP warning
The LOOSE FUEL CAP warning appears in the
vehicle information display when the fuel-filler
cap is not tightened correctly after the vehicle has
been refueled. It may take a few driving trips for
the message to be displayed. To turn off the
warning, perform the following:1. Remove and install the fuel-filler cap as pre- viously described as soon as possible.
2. Tighten the fuel-filler cap until clicks are heard.

●Keep your engine tuned up.
● Follow the recommended scheduled main-
tenance.
● Keep the tires inflated to the correct pres-
sure. Low tire pressure increases tire wear
and lowers fuel economy.
● Keep the wheels in correct alignment. Im-
proper alignment increases tire wear and
lowers fuel economy.
● For vehicles equipped with

●Do not drive the vehicle in the 4H or 4LO
position on dry hard surface roads. Driv-
ing on dry, hard surfaces in 4H or 4LO
may cause unnecessary noise, tire wear
and increased fuel consumption.
If the 4WD warning light or warning
message turn on when you are driving
on dry hard surface roads:
– in the 4H position, shift the 4WD shift switch to 2WD.
– in the 4LO position, stop the vehicle, move the automatic transmission
shift lever to the N position with the
brake pedal depressed, and shift the
4WD shift switch to 2WD.
● If the warning light or warning message
is still on after the above operation,
have your vehicle checked as soon as
possible. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
● The transfer case may be damaged if
you continue driving with the warning
light or warning message on. The E-Lock system can provide additional trac-
tion and should only be used when a vehicle has
become or is becoming stuck. This system oper-
ates by electronically “locking” the two rear drive
wheels together, allowing them to turn at the
same speed. The system is used when it is not
possible to free a stuck vehicle even when using
the 4LO position (4-wheel drive vehicles) .
When added traction is required, activate the
E-Lock system by pushing the switch on. For
additional information, refer to “Electronic locking
rear differential (E-Lock) system switch” in the
“Instruments and controls” section of this manual.
Once the system fully engages, the indicator light
in the instrument panel will remain on. When the
system is activated, both rear wheels will engage,
providing added traction.
The rear wheels may momentarily slip or move to
engage the system, and the system will only
engage up to approximately 4 mph (7 km/h).
Once the vehicle is free, the system should be
turned off and driving resumed.
The Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) system is disabled
and the ABS light illuminates when the E-Lock
system is on. Also, the Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC) system is disabled and the
