Brake warning light

GUID-4A67DFC2-D59E-4197-BAD5-168A3CE40A7E

This light functions for both the parking brake

and the foot brake systems.

Parking brake indicator:

GUID-D73A39BF-43C8-459F-9C24-47B7F579C407

When the ignition switch is in the ON position,

the light comes on when the parking brake is

applied.

Low brake fluid warning light:

GUID-D73A39BF-43C8-459F-9C24-47B7F579C407

When the ignition switch is in the ON position,

the light warns of a low brake fluid level. If the

light comes on while the engine is running with

the parking brake not applied, stop the vehicle

and perform the following:

1.

Check the brake fluid level. Add brake fluid

as necessary. (See “Brake fluid” in the “8.

Maintenance and do-it-yourself” section.)

2.

If the brake fluid level is correct, have the

warning

system

checked

by

a

NISSAN

dealer.

Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning

indicator:

GUID-D73A39BF-43C8-459F-9C24-47B7F579C407

When the parking brake is released and the

brake fluid level is sufficient, if both the brake

warning light and the Anti-lock Braking System

(ABS) warning light illuminate, it may indicate

the ABS is not functioning properly. Have the

brake system checked, and if necessary re-

paired, by a NISSAN dealer promptly. (See

“Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) warning light”

earlier in this section.)

WARNING

.

Your

brake

system

may

not

be

working properly if the warning light

is on. Driving could be dangerous. If

you judge it to be safe, drive care-

fully to the nearest service station

for

repairs.

Otherwise,

have

your

vehicle

towed

because

driving

it

could be dangerous.

.

Pressing the brake pedal with the

engine stopped and/or low brake

fluid level may increase your stop-

ping distance and braking will re-

quire greater pedal effort as well as

pedal travel.

.

If the brake fluid level is below the

minimum or MIN mark on the brake

fluid reservoir, do not drive until the

brake system has been checked at a

NISSAN dealer.

Charge warning light

GUID-69B03338-0451-441C-B766-BECF7DE9BC90

If the light comes on while the engine is running,

it

may

indicate

the

charging

system

is

not

functioning properly. Turn the engine off and

check the alternator 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 alternator

belt is loose, broken or missing.

Engine oil pressure warning light

GUID-0AE5784C-961F-4FC8-BFAF-77A224D6D347

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.

(See

“Engine oil” in the “8. Maintenance and do-it-

yourself” section.)
