tion label. TPMS Sensor ID Matching Process After
Tire Rotation (if so equipped)
Each TPMS sensor has a unique identification
code. Any time you rotate your vehicle’s tires or
replace one or more of the TPMS sensors, these
identification codes need to be matched to the
new tire/wheel position to make sure that the low
tire pressure display in the meter is correct. The
identification codes are matched to their posi-
tions using a TPMS diagnostic tool. It is recom-
mended you visit a NISSAN dealer for this ser-
vice.
The low tire pressure warning light remains illu-
minated until the tires are inflated to the recom-
mended COLD tire pressure.
Type A Only: The CHECK TIRE PRES warn-
ing message is displayed each time the
ignition switch is placed in the ON position
as long as the low tire pressure warning
light remains illuminated.
For additional information, refer to “Low tire pres-
sure warning light” in this section, “Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS)” in “Starting and driv-
ing” and “Wheels and tires” in the “Maintenance
and do-it-yourself” section of this manual.TACHOMETER
The tachometer indicates engine speed in revo-
lutions per minute (rpm) .
Do not rev the engine into the red zone

CAUTION
When engine speed approaches the red
zone, shift to a higher gear or reduce en-
gine speed. Operating the engine in the
red zone may cause serious engine
damage.

ENGINE COOLANT TEMPERATURE
GAUGE
NOTE:
The ignition switch must be placed in the
ON position for the gauge to give a reading.
Type A:The gauge indicates the engine coolant
temperature. The engine coolant temperature will
vary with the outside air temperature and driving
conditions. Type B:
Engine coolant temperature monitoring
is performed by the high temperature warning
light. For additional information, refer to “High
temperature warning light (red)” in this section.
CAUTION
If the gauge indicates a coolant tempera-
ture near the hot (H) end of the normal
range, reduce vehicle speed to decrease
the temperature. If the gauge is over the
normal 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.

SERVICE INTERVAL REMINDER
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, a wrench symbol and the distance to oil
change information will illuminate on the display
for approximately 5 seconds. The wrench symbol
and distance to oil change switch to oil display
status. Then the oil display status switches to
odometer and twin trip odometer/trip computer
information mode that was displayed before the
ignition switch was placed in the ACC, OFF or
LOCK position.
The oil level display status provides specific infor-
mation regarding your approximate engine oil level.
For additional information, refer to “Engine oil” in
the “Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section of
this manual.
Oil change schedule set up
It is possible to adjust the interval distance to oil
change by pushing the trip computer change
button on the instrument panel located near the
speedometer for 3 seconds while the wrench
symbol and distance to oil change are displayed.
The symbol and distance display will start flash-
ing and the display shows the current interval.
Push the switch to increase the interval distance.
Each step increases the interval distance by 500 mi (1,000 km). The interval distance can be set
up to 18,000 mi (30,000 km) after which the
display returns to zero.
If no further action is made, the display returns to oil
display status indication and the new interval is set.
If the interval distance is set to 0, the display will
skip the distance to oil change information and
wrench symbol display mode. In order to return to
the distance to oil change information and wrench
symbol display mode, push the trip computer
change button on the instrument panel located
near the speedometer for approximately 3 seconds
after the ignition switch has been turned to the ON
position, and adjust the distance to oil change
schedule as previously described.
Refer to the Warranty Information & Maintenance
Booklet for the appropriate interval distance to oil
change.
CAUTION
●
The oil level should be checked regu-
larly. Operating with insufficient
amount of oil level can damage the en-
gine and such damage is not covered by
the warranty.
● NISSAN recommends checking the oil
level every 3,000 mi (5,000 km).

NISSAN dealer for this service.
WARNING LIGHTS
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. It is recommended you visit a
NISSAN dealer for this service.
If an ABS malfunction occurs, the anti-lock func-
tion is turned off. The brake system then operates
normally but without anti-lock assistance. For
additional information, refer to “Brake system” in
the “Starting and driving” section of this manual.
orBrake warning light
This light functions for both the parking brake and
the foot brake systems.
Parking brake indicator
When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the light comes on when the parking
brake is applied.
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. For additional information, re- fer 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. It is recommended
you visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
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 and 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. It is
recommended you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.
