braking. For additional information, refer to “Anti-
lock Braking System (ABS) warning light” in this
section.

Charge warning light

If this light comes on while the engine is running,
it may indicate the charging system is not func-
tioning properly. Turn the engine off and check
the generator belt. If the belt is loose, broken,
missing, or if the light remains on, see a NISSAN
dealer immediately.

CAUTION

Do not continue driving if the generator
belt is loose, broken or missing.

Door open warning light

This light comes on when any of the doors are not
closed securely while the ignition switch is
placed in the ON position.

Engine oil pressure warning
light

This light warns of low engine oil pressure. If the
light flickers or comes on during normal driving,
pull off the road in a safe area, stop the engine
immediately, and call a NISSAN dealer or other
authorized repair shop.

The engine oil pressure warning light is not
designed to indicate a low oil level.
Use the
dipstick to check the oil level. For additional in-
formation, refer to “Engine oil” in the “Mainte-
nance and do-it-yourself” 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.

Low fuel warning light

This light comes on when the fuel level in the fuel
tank is getting low. Refuel as soon as it is conve-
nient, preferably before the fuel gauge reaches 0
(Empty). There will be a small reserve of fuel
in the tank when the fuel gauge reaches 0
(Empty).

Low tire pressure warning light

Your vehicle is equipped with a TPMS that moni-
tors the tire pressure of all tires except the spare.

The low tire pressure warning light warns of low
tire pressure or indicates that the TPMS is not
functioning properly.

After the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position, this light illuminates for about 1 second
and turns off.

Low tire pressure warning:

If the vehicle is being driven with low tire
pressure, the warning light will illuminate.
A CHECK TIRE PRES warning message is
also displayed in the odometer.

When the low tire pressure warning light
illuminates, you should stop and adjust the
tire pressure of all four tires to the recom-
mended COLD tire pressure shown on the
Tire and Loading Information label located
in the driver’s door opening. The low tire
pressure warning light does not automati-
cally turn off when the tire pressure is ad-
justed. After the tire is inflated to the rec-
ommended 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 pres-
sure gauge to check the tire pressure.

The low tire pressure warning light remains illu-
minated until the tires are inflated to the recom-
mended COLD tire pressure. The CHECK TIRE
PRES warning message is displayed each time
the ignition switch is placed in the ON position as
long as the low tire pressure warning light re-
mains illuminated.
