COMPASS DISPLAY (if so equipped) indicates that the fuel filler lid is The located on the driver's side of the vehicle. CAUTION ● If the vehicle runs out of fuel, malfunction indicator lamp the (MIL) may come on. Refuel as soon as possible. After a few driving trips, the lamp should turn off. If the lamp remains on after a few driving trips, have the vehicle inspected by a NISSAN dealer. LIC0385 FUEL GAUGE The gauge indicates the approximate fuel level in the tank. The gauge may move slightly during braking, turning, acceleration, or going up or down hills. The gauge needle returns to E (Empty) after the ignition key is turned to OFF. The low fuel warning light comes on when the amount of fuel in the tank is getting low. Refill the fuel tank before the gauge registers E (Empty). ● For additional information, see "Malfunction indicator lamp (MIL)" later in this section.

N: north E: east S: south W: west If the display reads "C", calibrate the compass by driving the vehicle in three complete circles at less than 5 MPH (8 km/h). You can also calibrate the compass by driving your vehicle on your everyday route. The compass will be calibrated once it has tracked three complete circles. 2-6 Instruments and controls
