Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)
warning light
The light will blink when the VDC system or the
traction control system is operating, thus alerting
the driver that the vehicle is nearing its traction
limits. The road surface may be slippery.
When the vehicle dynamic control warning light
illuminates when the vehicle dynamic control
system is turned on, this light alerts the driver to
the fact that the vehicle dynamic control
system’s fail-safe mode is operating, for example
the vehicle dynamic control system may not be
functioning properly. Have the system checked
by a NISSAN dealer. If a malfunction occurs in
the system, the vehicle dynamic control system
function will be canceled but the vehicle is still
driveable. For additional information, see “Vehi-
cle Dynamic Control (VDC) system” (P.5-29) of
this manual.
INDICATOR LIGHTS
Cruise indicator light
Cruise main switch indicator:
This light illuminates when the cruise control
main switch is pushed. The light turns off when
the main switch is pushed again. When the
cruise main switch indicator light illuminates, the
cruise control system is operational. (See
“Cruise control” (P.5-21).)
Cruise malfunction:
If the cruise indicator light blinks while the
engine is running, it may indicate the cruise
control system is not functioning properly. Have
the system checked by a NISSAN dealer. (See
“Cruise control” (P.5-21).)
Exterior light indicator
This indicator illuminates when the headlight
switch is turned to the AUTO,
or

panel lights, rear combination lights, license
plate lights or headlights are on. The indicator
turns off when these lights are turned off.
Front passenger air bag status light
The front passenger air bag status light ( ),
located on the center of the instrument panel,
will be lit and the passenger front air bag will be
OFF depending on how the front passenger
seat is being used.
For front passenger air bag status light opera-
tion, see “NISSAN Advanced Air Bag System

High beam indicator light
This light comes on when the headlight high
beam is on and goes out when the low beam is
selected.
Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
If the malfunction indicator light comes on
steady or blinks while the engine is running, it
may indicate a potential emission control mal-
function.
The malfunction indicator light 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 US
gallons (14 liters) of fuel in the fuel tank.
After a few driving trips, the light should
turn off if no other potential emission control
system malfunction exists.
