If there is an impact to your vehicle
from any direction, your Occupant
Classification Sensor (OCS) should be
checked to verify it is still functioning
correctly. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service.
The OCS should be checked even if no
air bags deploy as a result of the im-
pact. Failure to verify proper OCS
function may result in an improper
air bag deployment resulting in in-
jury or death.

FUEL GAUGE

NOTE:

The ignition switch must be placed in the
ON position for the gauge to give a reading.

The gauge indicates the

approximate

fuel

level in the tank.

The gauge may move slightly during brak-
ing, turning, acceleration, or going up or
down hills.

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 reg-
isters 0 (Empty).

indicates the fuel-filler location.

CAUTION

•

If the vehicle runs out of fuel, the
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) may
come on. Refuel as soon as possible.
After a few driving trips. the

light

should turn off. If the light remains on
after a few driving trips, have the ve-
hicle inspected. It is recommended
that you visit a NISSAN dealer for this
service.

•

For additional information, see “Mal-
function Indicator Light (MIL)” (P. 2-10).

DISTANCE TO EMPTY (DTE)

Displays the estimated distance the ve-
hicle can be driven before refueling. The
value is calculated based on recent fuel
economy, the amount of fuel remaining
in the fuel tank, and the actual fuel
consumption.

Changes in driving patterns or conditions
can cause the DTE value to vary. As a result,
the value displayed may differ from the ac-
tual distance that can be driven.

DTE display will change to “---” when the
fuel level in the tank is getting low, prior to
the fuel gauge reaching 0 (Empty).

NOTE:
• The DTE value after refill is estimated

based on recent fuel economy and
amount of fuel added.

• If a small amount of fuel is added, or

the ignition is on during refueling, the
display may not be updated.

• Conditions

that

affect

the

fuel

economy will also affect the estimated
DTE value (city/highway driving, idle
time, remote start time, terrain, sea-
sonal weather, added vehicle weight,
added deflectors, roof racks, etc.).

CAUTION

Running the engine with the engine oil
pressure warning light on could cause
serious damage to the engine almost
immediately. Such damage is not cov-
ered by warranty. Turn off the engine as
soon as it is safe to do so.

Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL)

If this indicator light comes on steady or
blinks while the engine is running, it may
indicate

a

potential

emission

control

malfunction.

The MIL 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 3
gallons (11.4 liters) of fuel in the fuel tank.

After a few driving trips, the

light

should turn off if no other potential emis-
sion control system malfunction exists.

If this indicator light 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. For additional information, see “Readi-
ness for Inspection/Maintenance (I/M) test”
(P. 10-24).

Operation

The MIL will come on in one of two ways:
• MIL on steady — An emission control sys-

tem malfunction has been detected.
Check the fuel-filler cap if the Loose Fuel
Cap warning appears in the vehicle infor-
mation display. If the fuel-filler cap is loose
or missing, tighten or install the cap and
continue to drive the vehicle. The
light should turn off after a few driving
trips. If the

light does not turn off

after a few driving trips, have the vehicle
inspected. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN dealer for this service. You
do not need to have your vehicle towed
to the dealer.

• MIL blinking — An engine misfire has been

detected which may damage the emis-
sion control system. To reduce or avoid
emission control system damage:

– do not drive at speeds above 45 mph

(72 km/h).

– avoid hard acceleration or decelera-

tion.

– avoid steep uphill grades.
– if possible, reduce the amount of cargo

being hauled or towed.

2-10

Instruments and controls

The MIL may stop blinking and come on
steady. Have the vehicle inspected. It is rec-
ommended that you visit a NISSAN dealer
for this service. 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.

the driver and front passenger seat belts.

The rear seats are also equipped with a
seat belt warning light.

For additional information, see “Seat belts”
(P. 1-12).

Supplemental air bag
warning light

When the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, the supplemental air bag warning
light illuminates for about 7 seconds and
then turns off. This means the system is
operational.

If any of the following conditions occur, the
front air bag, side air bag, curtain air bag,
and pretensioner seat belt systems need
servicing.
• The supplemental air bag warning light re-

mains on after approximately 7 seconds.

• The supplemental air bag warning light

flashes intermittently.

• The supplemental air bag warning light

does not come on at all.

It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for these services. Unless checked
and repaired, the supplemental restraint
system (air bag system) and/or the preten-
sioners may not function properly. For ad-
ditional information, see “Supplemental re-
straint system (SRS)” (P. 1-45).

WARNING

If the supplemental air bag warning
light is on, it could mean that the front
air bag, side air bag, curtain air bag sys-
tems and/or pretensioner systems will
not operate in an accident. To help
avoid injury to yourself or others, have
your vehicle checked as soon as pos-
sible. It is recommended that you visit a

information

display.

When the low tire pressure warning light
illuminates, you should stop and adjust
the tire pressure of all four tires to the
recommended COLD tire pressure shown
on the Tire and Loading Information la-
bel located in the driver’s door opening.
The low tire pressure warning light does
not automatically turn off when the tire
pressure is adjusted. After the tire is in-
flated to the recommended pressure,
the vehicle must be driven at speeds
above 16 mph (25 km/h) to activate the
TPMS and turn off the low tire pressure
warning light. Use a tire pressure gauge
to check the tire pressure.

The “Tire Pressure Low - Add Air” warning
appears each time the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position as long as the low

If the light does not illuminate with
the ignition switch placed in the ON
position, have the vehicle checked as
soon as possible. It is recommended
that you visit a NISSAN dealer for this
service.

•

If the light illuminates while driving,
avoid sudden steering maneuvers
or abrupt braking, reduce vehicle
speed, pull off the road to a safe loca-
tion and stop the vehicle as soon as
possible. Driving with under-inflated
tires may permanently damage the
tires and increase the likelihood of
tire failure. Serious vehicle damage
could occur and may lead to an acci-
dent and could result in serious per-
sonal injury or death. Check the tire
pressure for all four tires. Adjust the
tire pressure to the recommended
COLD tire pressure show on the Tire
and Loading Information label lo-
cated in the driver’s door opening to
turn the low tire pressure warning
light off. If the light still illuminates
while driving after adjusting the tire
pressure, a tire may be flat or the
TPMS may be malfunctioning. If you
have a flat tire, replace it with a spare
tire as soon as possible. If no tire is

flat and all tires are properly inflated,
have the vehicle checked. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for this service.

•

When using a wheel without the
TPMS such as the spare tire, 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. Have your
tires replaced and/or TPMS system
reset as soon as possible. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN
dealer for these services.

•

Replacing tires with those not origi-
nally specified by NISSAN could af-
fect 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 four wheels correctly.
