How to read it
Nissan’s 2024 Rogue manual says the AEB system OFF warning light comes on with the ignition and goes off once the engine starts. It illuminates when the AEB with Pedestrian Detection system is set to OFF in the vehicle information display, and if it illuminates or flashes while the system is on, the system may be unavailable. AEB is switched back on automatically when the engine is restarted.

Nissan lights vary by model and year. The owner’s manual for the vehicle says what each light means on it, and a Nissan dealer or a qualified mechanic can say what it means for a particular car.
Steady or flashing
The manual’s section on Intelligent Forward Collision Warning (I-FCW) describes the orange light: it flashes when the system has turned itself off because it can’t detect a vehicle ahead, for example because of radar interference, and it illuminates, with a chime, when the system has a malfunction.
What NHTSA calls it
NHTSA calls this kind of system automatic emergency braking, which applies the brakes automatically when a forward collision is imminent, and pedestrian automatic emergency braking when it brakes for a pedestrian ahead. NHTSA notes that makers use different names for the same driver assistance technologies.
Look-alikes
The RAB system OFF warning light is for Rear Automatic Braking, the system that brakes when reversing.
