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 4 wheels correctly.

Low windshield washer fluid

warning light (if so equipped)

This light comes on when the windshield washer

fluid is at a low level. Add windshield washer fluid

as necessary. See “Window washer fluid” in the

“Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section of this

manual.

P position selecting warning

light (CVT models) (if so

equipped)

The light blinks red and the warning buzzer

sounds if you are outside of the vehicle with the

Intelligent Key and the engine is off, but the

selector lever is not in the P (Park) position.
When the warning light blinks, turn the ignition

switch to the ON position, move the selector

lever to the P position, then turn the ignition

switch to the LOCK position.

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 . For

7 seconds after the ignition switch is in the ON

position, the system does not activate the warn-

ing light for the front passenger.
Refer to “Seat belts” in the “Safety—Seats, seat

belts and supplemental restraint system” section

for precautions on seat belt usage.

Supplemental air bag warning

light

When the ignition key is in the ON or START

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 preten-

sioner systems need servicing and your vehicle

must be taken to a NISSAN dealer:

● 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.

Unless checked and repaired, the supplemental

restraint system (air bag system) and/or the pre-

tensioners may not function properly. For addi-

tional details see “Supplemental restraint sys-

tem” in the “Safety—Seats, seat belts and

supplemental restraint system” section of this

manual.

WARNING

If the supplemental air bag warning light

is on, it could mean that the front air bag,

side air bag, curtain air bag systems

and/or pretensioner systems will not op-

erate in an accident. To help avoid injury

to yourself or others, have your vehicle

checked by a NISSAN dealer as soon as

possible.
