CAUTION

If the gauge indicates coolant tempera-
ture near the hot (H) end of the normal

safely possible. If the engine is over-
heated, continued operation of the ve-
hicle may seriously damage the engine.
See “If your vehicle overheats” in the “In
case of emergency” section for immediate
action required.

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 switch is placed in the OFF position.

ters E (Empty).

The

the

light remains on after a few driving
trips, have the vehicle inspected by a
NISSAN dealer.
