Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) warning light The light will blink when the VDC system or the traction control system is operating, thus alerting the driver that the vehicle is nearing its traction limits. The road surface may be slippery. When the vehicle dynamic control warning light illuminates when the vehicle dynamic control system is turned on, this light alerts the driver to the fact that the vehicle dynamic control system's fail-safe mode is operating, for example the vehicle dynamic control system may not be functioning properly. Have the system checked by a NISSAN dealer. If a malfunction occurs in the system, the vehicle dynamic control system function will be canceled but the vehicle is still driveable. For additional information, see "Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC) system" (P.5-29) of this manual. High beam indicator light This light comes on when the headlight high beam is on and goes out when the low beam is selected. Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL) If the malfunction indicator light comes on steady or blinks while the engine is running, it may indicate a potential emission control malfunction.

Check to make sure the fuel-filler cap is installed and closed tightly, and that the vehicle has at least 3 US gallons (14 liters) of fuel in the fuel tank. After a few driving trips, the light should turn off if no other potential emission control system malfunction exists.
