The fuel gauge indicates the approximate fuel level in the fuel tank.

Braking, cornering, acceleration and driving on slopes may cause the gauge needle to move slightly.

The gauge needle returns to the 0 (empty) mark when the ignition switch is in the OFF position.

The low fuel warning light comes on when the fuel tank contains only a small amount of fuel.

Refuel before the gauge needle reaches the 0 (empty) mark.

The symboltrappeindicates that the
fuel filler door is on the driver's side of the vehicle.

WARNING

  • If the vehicle runs out of fuel, the malfunction indicator Faites may come on.
    Refuel as soon as possible. After a few driving cycles, the le témoin light should go off. If
    the light stays on, have the vehicle inspected by a NISSAN dealer.
  • For more information, refer to the "Malfunction indicator" section later in this chapter.
