ers, have your vehicle checked by a
NISSAN dealer as soon as possible.
INDICATOR LIGHTS
Cruise main switch indicator
light
The light comes on when the cruise control main
switch is pushed. The light goes out when the
main switch is pushed again. When the cruise
main switch indicator light comes on, the cruise
control system is operational.
Cruise set indicator light
The light comes on while the vehicle speed is
controlled by the cruise control system. If the
light blinks while the engine is running, it may
indicate the cruise control system is not func-
tioning properly. Have the system checked by
your NISSAN dealer.
4WD mode indicator light
(AUTO) (4WD models)
This light comes on when the ignition switch is
turned to ON, and turns off within 1 second.
While the engine is running, this light will illumi-
nate when selecting AUTO mode. See “Using
four wheel drive (4WD)” in the “5. Starting and
driving” section.
4WD mode indicator light
(LOCK) (4WD models)
This light comes on when the ignition switch is
turned to ON, and turns off within 1 second.
When selecting LOCK mode while the engine is
running, this light will illuminate simultaneously
with the 4WD mode indicator light (AUTO)
illuminating. See “Using four wheel drive (4WD)”
in the “5. Starting and driving” section.
Front fog light indicator light (if
so equipped)
The light comes on when the front fog light
switch is turned on.
High beam indicator light
(Blue)
This light comes on when the headlight high
beam is on and goes out when the low beam is
selected.
Malfunction indicator lamp
(MIL)
If the malfunction indicator lamp comes on
steady or blinks while the engine is running, it
may indicate a potential emission control mal-
function.
The malfunction indicator lamp 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 14 liters
(3 US gallons, 2.5 Imp gallons) of fuel in the fuel
tank.
After a few driving trips, the
lamp should
turn off if no other potential emission control

system malfunction exists.
If this indicator lamp comes on steady 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 inspection/maintenance (I/M)
test” in the “9. Technical and consumer informa-
tion” section of this manual.
Operation
The malfunction indicator lamp will come on in
one of two ways:
쐌 Malfunction indicator lamp on steady — An
emission control system malfunction has
been detected. Turn the ignition key to OFF
and check the fuel filler cap. If the fuel filler
cap is loose or missing, tighten or install the
cap and continue to drive the vehicle. The
lamp should turn off after a few driving
trips. If the
lamp 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.
쐌 Malfunction indicator lamp blinking — An
engine misfire has been detected which may
damage the emission control system. To re-
duce or avoid emission control system dam-
age:
a) Do not drive at speeds above 72 km/h (45
MPH).
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 lamp may stop
blinking and come on steady.
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
checked and repaired as necessary
could lead to poor driveability, reduced
fuel economy, and possible damage to
the emission control system.
Overdrive off indicator light
(A/T models)
This light comes on when the overdrive function
is OFF.
The automatic transmission overdrive function is
controlled by the overdrive switch.
If the vehicle is driven under extreme con-
ditions, such as excessive wheel spinning
and subsequent hard braking, the Fail-safe
system may be activated. This will occur
even if all electrical circuits are functioning
properly. In this case, turn the ignition key
OFF and wait for 3 seconds. Then turn the
key back to the ON position. The vehicle
should return to its normal operating con-
dition. If it does not return to its normal
operating condition have your NISSAN
dealer check the transmission and repair if
necessary.
Slip indicator light (if so
equipped)
This indicator will blink when the VDC system or
the traction control system is operating, thus
alerting the driver to the fact that the road
surface is slippery and the vehicle is nearing its
traction limits.
You may feel or hear the system working, but this
is normal.
The light will blink on for a few seconds after the
VDC system stops limiting wheel spin.
The slip indicator light also comes on when you
turn the ignition key to ON. The light will turn off
Instruments and controls 2-11
墌 04.6.10/T30-J/V5.0 墍
after about 1 second if the system is operational.
If the light does not come on or go off, have the
traction control system checked by your
NISSAN dealer.
Turn signal/hazard indicator
lights
The light flashes when the turn signal switch
lever or hazard switch is turned on.
Vehicle dynamic control (VDC)
off indicator light (if so
equipped)
After turning the ignition key to the ON position,
the light will illuminate and then turn off. This
indicates the vehicle dynamic control (VDC)
system is operational.
The light comes on when the vehicle dynamic
control (VDC) off switch is pushed to OFF. This
indicates the vehicle dynamic control system
and traction control system are not operating.
When the vehicle dynamic control off indicator
light and slip indicator light come on with the
vehicle dynamic control system turned on, this
light alerts the driver to the fact that the vehicle
dynamic control system’s fail-safe mode is op-
erating, that is the system may not be functioning
properly. Have the system checked by your
NISSAN dealer. If an abnormality occurs in the
system, the vehicle dynamic control system
function will be canceled but the vehicle is still
driveable. For additional information, see “Ve-
hicle dynamic control (VDC) system” in the “5.
Starting and driving” section of this manual.
AUDIBLE REMINDERS

The chime will sound if the driver’s side door is
opened while the key is left in the ignition switch
(ignition switch is turned to OFF or ACC).

Light reminder chime
The chime will sound when the driver’s door is
opened with the headlight switch on unless the
ignition key is in the ON position.
Make sure to turn the light switch off when you

Brake pad wear warning
The 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 whether or not the brake
pedal is depressed. Have the brakes checked as
soon as possible if the warning sound is heard.
Your vehicle has two types of security systems,
as follows:
쐌 Vehicle Security System
쐌 Nissan Vehicle Immobilizer System
The security condition will be shown by the
security indicator light.
VEHICLE SECURITY SYSTEM
The vehicle security system provides visual and
audible alarm signals if someone opens the
doors when the system is armed. It is not,
however, a motion detection type system that
