The Malfunction Indicator Light 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 hav-
ing the emission control system checked
and repaired as necessary could lead to
poor driveability, reduced fuel economy,
and possible damage to the emission con-
trol system.

Overdrive OFF indicator light
(A/T models only)

This light comes on when the overdrive function
is OFF.

The automatic transmission overdrive function is
controlled by the overdrive switch.

See “Driving the vehicle” in the “Starting and
driving” section of this manual.

Security indicator light (if so
equipped)

This light blinks when the ignition switch is in the
OFF, LOCK or ACC position. The blinking secu-
rity indicator light indicates that the security sys-
tems equipped on the vehicle are operational.

For additional information, see “Security sys-
tems” later in this section.

Slip indicator light for models
with ABLS

This indicator light comes on if the active brake
limited slip is activated. If activated, the system
will apply braking to the slipping drive wheel(s),
giving the non-slipping wheel(s) more traction.

Slip indicator light for models
with VDC

This indicator will blink when the VDC system or
the traction control system is operating, thus
alerting that the vehicle is nearing its traction
limits. The road surface may be slippery.

Transfer 4LO position indicator
light (

model)

The light should turn off within 1 second after
turning the ignition switch to ON.

This light comes on when the 4WD shift switch is
set in the 4LO position with the ignition switch in
the ON position.

The transfer case may be damaged if you shift the
switch while driving.

Make sure the transfer 4LO position indicator
light turns on when you shift the 4WD shift switch
to 4LO.

The indicator light may blink while shifting
from one drive mode to the other.

The 4LO indicator light must stop blinking and
remain illuminated or turn off before shifting the
transmission into gear. If the shift lever is shifted
from the N (Neutral) position to any other gear
when the 4LO indicator light is blinking, the ve-
hicle may move unexpectedly.

When you shift between 4H and 4LO, follow the
instructions below:

● For automatic transmission models, stop the

vehicle and shift the shift lever to the N
(Neutral) position with the brake pedal de-
pressed, then depress and turn the 4WD
shift switch to 4LO or 4H.

● For manual transmission models, stop the

vehicle and shift the shift lever to the N
(Neutral) position with the clutch pedal de-
pressed, then depress and turn the 4WD
shift switch to 4LO or 4H.

You cannot move the transfer 4WD shift switch
between 4H and 4LO unless you stop the vehicle
and shift the shift lever to the N position with the
brake pedal (A/T models) or clutch pedal (M/T
models) depressed.
