TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
This system monitors tire pressure. Please remember, this system does not detect a sudden drop in tire pressure (for example, a blowout while driving). It also does not monitor the air pressure in the spare tire.
Tire pressure is affected by temperature. Low outside temperature causes lower tire pressure. This may cause the low tire pressure warning light to illuminate.
If the low tire pressure warning light illuminates, check the tire pressure in all four tires. Adjust the low tire pressure to the recommended COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and Loading Information label to turn the low tire pressure warning light off. 
If TPMS is not functioning properly, the low tire pressure warning light will flash for  approximately 60 seconds when the key is turned on. After 60 seconds, the light will remain on. Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer.* SAT presets are only available on SAT equipped vehicles.

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS)
This system monitors tire pressure. Please remember, this system does not detect a sudden drop in tire pressure (for example, a blowout while driving). It also does not monitor the air pressure in the spare tire.
Tire pressure is affected by temperature. Low outside temperature causes lower tire pressure. This may cause the low tire pressure warning light to illuminate.
If the low tire pressure warning light illuminates, check the tire pressure in all four tires. Adjust the low tire pressure to the recommended COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire and Loading Information label to turn the low tire pressure warning light off. 
If TPMS is not functioning properly, the low tire pressure warning light will flash for  approximately 60 seconds when the key is turned on. After 60 seconds, the light will remain on. Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer.* SAT presets are only available on SAT equipped vehicles.

The hill descent control system is designed to reduce driver workload when going down steep hills. The HDC system helps to control vehicle speed so the driver can concentrate on steering the vehicle.
To activate the HDC system:
	The automatic transmission selector lever must be in forward or reverse gear,
	The 4WD switch must be in the 4L position and the vehicle speed must be under  15 MPH (25 km/h), or
	The 4WD switch must be in the 4H position and the vehicle speed must be under  21 MPH (35 km/h), and
	The HDC system switch must be ON.
The HDC indicator light will come on when the system is activated. Also, the stop/tail lights illuminate while the HDC system applies the brakes to control vehicle speed. To turn off the HDC system, push the switch to the off position. The HDC system is temporarily disabled when the brake or accelerator pedal is depressed. 
Refer to your Owner’s Manual for detailed information.
HILL  START  ASSIST  (HSA) (if so equipped)

HSA will operate automatically under the following conditions:
	The selector lever is shifted to a forward or reverse gear.
	The vehicle is stopped completely on a hill by applying the brake.

SEAT BELT WARNING LIGHT AND CHIME
 The light and chime remind you to fasten your seat belts. The light illuminates whenever the ignition key is turned to the ON or START position and remains illuminated until the driver’s seat belt is fastened. At the same time, the chime sounds for about 6 seconds unless the driver’s seat belt is securely fastened. 
 The seat belt warning light may also illuminate if the front passenger’s seat belt is not fastened when the front passenger’s seat is occupied (if so equipped). For 5 seconds after the ignition switch is in the ON position, the system does not activate the warning light for the front passenger.
Refer to the Owner’s Manual for detailed information regarding seat belt usage.
