Find the "Settings" option, then press and hold the left button to configure. Turn the car key to the engine position without starting the car, then rotate the knobs on the dashboard—there are two of them. The dashboard LCD screen will sequentially display fuel consumption information, average speed, remaining range, and settings. Press the knob downward. Inside, rotate the knob to select the interval mileage, or you can turn it off. The car dashboard is a device that reflects the working status of various vehicle systems.

Adjusting the Qashqai's instrument cluster is quite convenient, mainly using the row of buttons on the left side of the steering wheel. When driving, I like to check fuel consumption information frequently - just toggle with the left/right arrow keys. Pressing the arrow button once shows average fuel consumption, and pressing again switches to remaining range. The tire pressure monitoring is on the third page, which I always check before long trips. Brightness adjustment is hidden in the settings menu - press the menu button, select display settings, then use the up/down keys to adjust brightness levels. I usually dim it by two levels at night to avoid glare. The theme mode can also be changed, though I find the default blue-white interface the clearest. Remember it's best to make these adjustments when parked, as modifying dashboard settings while driving can affect safety.

The most commonly used method to adjust the Qashqai's instrument panel is through the control buttons on the left side of the steering wheel. Use the left and right buttons to cycle through display contents, such as basic data like instant fuel consumption and trip mileage. The tire pressure monitoring is located in the vehicle information section, and the values are automatically displayed each time the car is started cold. Brightness adjustment requires entering a secondary menu: first press the menu button to access the settings options, find the instrument panel settings, and use the up and down buttons to select the brightness level. During the day, I set it to the highest level, and at night, I reduce it to the middle level to protect my eyesight. The theme switching function is in the same menu, but its practicality is not high. An additional reminder: if you encounter abnormal display content, simply reset to default settings by holding the menu button for 5 seconds to reboot the system and restore it.

The directional keys on the left spoke of the new Qashqai's steering wheel serve as the control hub for the instrument cluster. Press the left/right keys to toggle between trip computer pages: the first page displays mileage and fuel consumption statistics, the second shows driving assistance information, and the third presents tire pressure values. To adjust brightness, press the menu key to bring up the options bar, select 'Instrument Settings,' and the brightness slider will appear. I prefer using +2 brightness level during daytime and reduce it to level 0 at night to avoid glare. Theme modes like the sporty dark background can be selected in settings, but in practice, font legibility is actually worse than in standard mode. Key note: During navigation, the instrument cluster prioritizes route guidance, temporarily locking some configuration functions.

Adjusting the Qashqai dashboard is divided into three sections: To switch display pages, use the arrow keys on the left side of the steering wheel to cycle directly, displaying everything from fuel consumption data to energy recovery efficiency. Brightness adjustment requires entering the settings menu, selecting the display option, and then using the up and down keys to adjust the light and dark levels—it's recommended to match ambient lighting to avoid glare at night. Theme switching is located at the bottom of the settings page, offering two color schemes. The most practical page is the tire pressure monitoring; be cautious if values fluctuate more than 10% when temperatures rise. Remember to operate in P (Park) mode when making adjustments, as frequent page switching while driving can distract attention, especially on highways where safety should always be the top priority.

The dashboard adjustment logic of the new Qashqai is very intuitive. Driving data displays can be paged through directly using the left and right buttons on the steering wheel's left side. For daily commutes, I focus most on the instant fuel consumption page. Special functions require entering the settings menu: the first option after pressing the menu button is brightness adjustment, with five adjustable levels. It's recommended to lower it by two levels at night to reduce visual fatigue. Theme switching is in the secondary menu 'Display Settings,' but testing shows it doesn't affect core data presentation. The tire pressure monitoring is on a separate page, and it's advisable to compare data fluctuations four times a month. Tip: Holding down the menu button can reset the trip computer, quickly restoring factory settings if display errors occur. It's safest to perform this operation with the vehicle stationary.
