If:

1. The engine coolant temperature is not re-

duced.

2. The air conditioning cooling function does

not turn back ON.

3. The engine oil pressure warning/engine

coolant temperature high indicator

il-

luminates, this may indicate a malfunction.
Move the vehicle off the road in a safe area
and allow the engine to cool. If after check-
ing the oil and coolant, the

remains

on, do not continue to drive and call a
NISSAN dealer.

The check engine light may also come ON. If
only it remains on, you do not need to have your
vehicle towed, but have it inspected soon by a
NISSAN dealer. See “Check engine light” in the
“Instruments and controls ” section of this
manual.

WARNING

Overheating can result in reduced engine
power and vehicle speed. The reduced
speed may be lower than other traffic,
which could increase the chance of a col-
lision. Be especially careful when driving.
If the vehicle cannot maintain a safe driv-
ing speed, pull to the side of the road in a
safe area. Allow the engine to cool and
return to normal operation. See “If your
vehicle overheats” in the “In case of emer-
gency” section of this manual.

CAUTION

Running the engine with the engine oil
pressure warning light on could cause se-
rious damage to the engine almost imme-
diately. Such damage is not covered by
warranty. Turn off the engine as soon as it
is safe to do so.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION

WARNING

Do not depress the accelerator pedal

while shifting from P (Park) or N (Neu-
tral) to R (Reverse), or L (Low). Always
depress the brake pedal until shifting is
completed. Failure to do so could cause
you

to

lose

control

and

have

an

accident.

Cold engine idle speed is high, so use

caution when shifting into a forward or
reverse gear before the engine has
warmed up.

Never shift to P (Park) or R (Reverse)

while the vehicle is moving. This could
cause an accident.

Except in an emergency, do not shift to

the N (Neutral) position while driving.
Coasting with the transmission in the N
(Neutral) position may cause serious
damage to the transmission.
