Nissan Altima: Charge warning light
If this light comes on while the engine is running, it may indicate the charging system is not functioning properly. Turn the engine off and check the generator belt. If the belt is loose, broken, missing, or if the light remains on, see a NISSAN dealer immediately.
CAUTION
● Do not ground electrical accessories
directly to the battery terminal. Doing
so will bypass the variable control system
and the vehicle battery may not
charge completely. Refer to “Variable
voltage control system” in the “Maintenance
and do-it-yourself” section later
in this manual.
● Do not continue driving if the generator
belt is loose, broken or missing.
