If any malfunction occurs in the 4WD system
when the key switch is ON, the warning light will
either remain illuminated or blink.
If the 4WD warning light comes on, the 4WD
shift indicator light goes out.
High-temperature transfer case oil makes the
warning light blink rapidly (about twice per sec-
ond). If the warning light blinks rapidly during
operation, stop the vehicle in a safe place imme-
diately. Then if the light goes off after a while, you
can continue driving.
A large difference between the diameters of front
and rear wheels will make the warning light blink
slowly (about once per two seconds). Change
the 4WD shift switch into 2WD and do not drive
fast.
CAUTION
If the warning light comes on or blinks
slowly during operation or rapidly after
stopping the vehicle for a while, have
your vehicle checked by a NISSAN
dealer as soon as possible.
Shifting between 4H and 4LO is not
recommended when the 4WD warning
light turns on.
When the warning light comes on, the
2WD mode may be engaged even if the
4WD shift switch is in 4H. Be especially
careful when driving. If corresponding
parts are malfunctioning, the 4WD
mode will not be engaged even if the
4WD shift switch is shifted.
Do not drive the vehicle in the 4H or 4LO
position on dry hard surface roads. Driv-
ing on dry, hard surfaces in 4H or 4LO
may cause unnecessary noise, tire wear
and increased fuel consumption.
If the 4WD warning light turns on when
you are driving on dry hard surface roads:
in the 4H position, shift the 4WD shift
switch to 2WD.
in the 4LO position, stop the vehicle,
move the automatic transmission
shift selector lever to the N position
with the brake pedal depressed, 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.
The transfer case may be damaged if
you continue driving with the warning
light blinking rapidly.
The electronic locking rear differential (E–Lock)
system can help provide additional traction when
one of the rear wheels has lost traction or when
the vehicle is driven in off-road conditions such
as in mud, snow or sand. Activate the system
before driving the vehicle in areas where the
vehicle can become stuck.
When additional traction is required activate
the E–Lock system by pushing the switch
ON, see “Electronic Locking Rear Differen-
tial (E–Lock) System Switch” in the “Instru-
ments and controls” section.
Once the system fully engages the indicator
light will remain on in the instrument panel,
see “Electronic locking rear differential
(E–Lock) system on indicator light” in the
“Instruments and controls” section.
When the system is activated both rear
wheels will engage providing additional trac-
tion.
The rear wheels may momentarily slip or have to
turn at different speeds to engage the system (for
example, if the vehicle is turned left or right).
