Engine oil pressure low/ Engine coolant temperature high warning light This light warns of low engine oil pressure or high engine coolant temperature. If the light flickers or comes on during normal driving, pull off the road in a safe area, stop the engine and allow it to cool. If the light remains on after checking the oil and coolant, stop the engine immediately and call a NISSAN dealer or other authorized repair shop. This light is not designed to indicate a low oil or low coolant level. Check the oil level with the dipstick and check the coolant level on the reservoir. See "Engine oil" and "Checking engine coolant level" in the "Maintenance and do-it-yourself" section of this manual. Also see "If your vehicle overheats" in the "In case of emergency" section of this manual. ● If the gauge indicates engine coolant temperature over the normal range, stop the vehicle as soon as safely possible. If the engine is overheated, continued operation of the vehicle may seriously damage the engine. See "If your vehicle overheats" in the "In case of emergency" section for immediate action required. ● Do not drive on dry hard surface roads in the 4H or 4LO position. If the 4WD warning light turns on when you are driving on dry hard surface roads: - in the AUTO or 4H position, shift the 4WD shift switch to 2WD. - in the 4LO position, stop the vehicle, move the shift selector to the N position and shift the 4WD shift switch to 2WD. ● If the warning light is still on after the above operation, have your vehicle checked by a NISSAN dealer as soon as possible. 4WD warning light model) ( The 4WD warning light comes on when the ignition switch is placed in the ON position. It turns off soon after the engine is started. If the engine or vehicle is not functioning properly, the warning light will either remain illuminated or blink.

Refuel as soon as it is convenient, preferably before the fuel gauge reaches E (Empty). There will be a small reserve of fuel in the tank when the fuel gauge needle reaches E (Empty). CAUTION CAUTION ● Running the engine with the engine oil pressure warning light on could cause serious damage to the engine almost immediately. Such damage is not covered by warranty. Turn off the engine as soon as it is safe to do so. ● If the warning light comes on or blinks during operation, have your vehicle checked by a NISSAN dealer as soon as possible.
