INCREASING FUEL ECONOMY ● Keep your engine tuned up. ● Follow the recommended scheduled maintenance. ● Keep the tires inflated to the correct pressure. Low tire pressure increases tire wear and lowers fuel economy. ● Keep all the wheels in correct alignment. Improper alignment increases tire wear and lowers fuel economy. ● Use the recommended viscosity engine oil. For additional information, refer to "Engine oil and oil filter recommendations" in the "Technical and consumer information" section of this manual. ALL-WHEEL DRIVE (AWD) (if so equipped) If any malfunction occurs in the AWD system while the engine is running, the master warning light will come on. The master warning light may illuminate while trying to free a stuck vehicle due to high powertrain oil temperature. The driving mode may change to 2WD. AUTO mode may change to LOCK mode before the warning light illuminates. If the master warning light illuminates during operation, stop the vehicle with the engine idling in a safe place immediately. Then if the light turns off after a while, you can continue driving. A large difference between the diameters of the front and rear wheels will make the warning light illuminate. Pull off the road in a safe area and idle the engine. Check that all tire sizes are the same, tire pressure is correct, and the tires are not worn. CAUTION ● If the warning light remains on after the above operation, have your vehicle checked by a NISSAN dealer as soon as possible. ● If the warning light comes on while driving, there may be a malfunction in the AWD system. Reduce the vehicle speed and have your vehicle checked by a NISSAN dealer as soon as possible. ● The powertrain may be damaged if you continue driving with the warning light illuminated. ● Never drive on dry, hard surface roads in the LOCK mode, as this will overload the powertrain and may cause a serious malfunction.
