1. Cruise indicator:This indicator indicates the condition of
the ICC system depending on a color.
• Cruise control ON indicator (gray): Indi- cates that the ProPILOT Assist switch is
on • Cruise control SET indicator (green): In-
dicates that the cruising speed is set
• Cruise control warning (yellow): Indi- cates that there is a malfunction in the
ICC system
2. Set vehicle speed indicator:
This indicator indicates the set vehicle
speed. For Canadian models, the speed
is displayed in km/h.

To reset at a slower cruising speed, use one
of the following three methods:
1. Lightly tap the brake pedal. When thevehicle attains the desired speed, push
the SET- switch and release it.
2. Push and hold the SET- switch. Release the switch when the vehicle slows down
to the desired speed.
3. Push, then quickly release the SET- switch. Each time you do this, the set
speed will decrease by about 1 mph
(1.6 km/h).
To resume the preset speed, push and re-
lease the RES+ switch. The vehicle will re-
sume the last set cruising speed when the
vehicle speed is over 25 mph (40 km/h).
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the AEB
system could result in serious injury or
death.
• The AEB system is a supplemental aid to the driver. It is not a replace-
ment for the driver’s attention to
traffic conditions or responsibility to
drive safely. It cannot prevent acci-
dents due to carelessness or dan-
gerous driving techniques.
• The AEB system does not function in all driving, traffic, weather and road
conditions. The AEB system can assist the driver when
there is a risk of a forward collision with the
vehicle ahead in the traveling lane.
The AEB system uses a radar sensor
A
located on the front of the vehicle to mea-
sure the distance to the vehicle ahead in
the same lane.
AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
(AEB) (IF SO EQUIPPED)
5-112Starting and driving
AEB SYSTEM OPERATION
1. Vehicle ahead detection indicator
2. AEB emergency warning indicator
3. AEB system warning light
The AEB system will function when your
vehicle is driven at speeds above approxi-
mately 3 mph (5 km/h).
If a risk of a forward collision is detected,
the AEB system will provide an initial warn-
ing to the driver by both a visual and au-
dible alert.
If the driver applies the brakes quickly and
forcefully af ter the warning, and the AEB
system detects that there is still the possi-
bility of a forward collision, the system will
automatically increase the braking force. If
the driver does not take action, the AEB
system issues the second visual warning
(red) and audible warning and also applies
partial braking.
If the risk of a collision becomes imminent,
the AEB system applies harder braking au-
tomatically.
NOTE:
The vehicle’s brake lights come on when
braking is performed by the AEB system.
Starting and driving5-113
1. Press thebutton until “Settings” dis-
plays in the vehicle information display.
Use the
button to select “Driver
Assistance.” Then press the OK button.
2. Select “Emergency Brake” and press the OK button.
3. Select “System” and use the OK button to turn the system on or off.
When the AEB system is turned off, the AEB
system warning light illuminates.
NOTE:
The AEB system will be automatically
turned on when the EV system is restarted.
AEB SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the AEB system. Failure to op-
erate the vehicle in accordance with
these system limitations could result
in serious injury or death.
• The AEB system cannot detect all vehicles under all conditions.
• The radar sensor does not detect the following objects: – Pedestrians, animals or obstacles
in the roadway.
– Oncoming vehicles.
– Crossing vehicles.
• The radar sensor has some perfor- mance limitations. If a stationary ve-
hicle is in the vehicles’s path, the AEB
system will not function when the
vehicle is driven at speeds over ap-
proximately 50 mph (80 km/h).
•
The radar sensor may not detect a ve-
hicle ahead in the following conditions:
– Dirt, ice, snow or other material covering the radar sensor.
–
Interference by other radar sources.– Snow or road spray from traveling vehicles.
– If the vehicle ahead is narrow (e.g. motorcycle).
– When driving on a steep downhill slope or roads with sharp curves.
• In some road or traffic conditions, the AEB system may unexpectedly
apply partial braking. When accel-
eration is necessary, continue to de-
press the accelerator pedal to over-
ride the system.
• Braking distances increase on slip- pery surfaces. • The system is designed to automati-
cally check the sensor’s functional-
ity, within certain limitations. The
system may not detect some forms
of obstructions of the sensor area
such as ice, snow, stickers, etc. In
these cases, the system may not be
able to worn the driver properly. Be
sure that you check, clean and clear
the sensor area regularly.
• Excessive noise will interfere with the warning chime sound, and the
chime may not be heard.
• The AEB system may react to a per- son on a bicycle, detecting as a pe-
destrian.
• The AEB system may operate under the following conditions, detecting
the possibility of a forward collision:
– A vehicle or a person is on theroadside at the beginning of a
curve.
– A pedestrian approaches the driv- ing lane in front of the vehicle.

SYSTEM TEMPORARILY
UNAVAILABLE
Condition A
When the radar sensor picks up interfer-
ence from another radar source, making it
impossible to detect a vehicle ahead, the
AEB system is automatically turned off.
The AEB system warning light (orange) will
illuminate.
Action to take
When the above conditions no longer exist,
the AEB system will resume automatically.
Condition B
In the following condition, the AEB system
warning light (orange) will illuminate and
the “Not available: Front Radar Blocked”
warning message will appear in the vehicle
information display.
• The sensor area on the front of the vehicleis covered with dirt or is obstructed.
5-116Starting and driving
Action to take
If the warning light (orange) comes on, stop
the vehicle in a safe place and turn the EV
system off. Clean the radar cover on the on
the front of the vehicle with a sof t cloth, and
restart the EV system. If the warning light
continues to illuminate, have the AEB sys-
tem checked. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer for this
service.
• When driving on roads with limited roadstructures or buildings (for example, long
bridges, deserts, snow fields, driving next
to long walls).
Action to take
When the above conditions no longer exist,
the AEB system will resume automatically.SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
If the AEB system malfunctions, it will be
turned off automatically, a chime will
sound, the AEB system warning light (or-
ange) will illuminate and the warning mes-
sage [Malfunction] will appear in the vehicle
information display.
Action to take:
If the warning light (orange) comes on, stop
the vehicle in a safe location, turn the EV
system off and restart the EV system. If the
warning light continues to illuminate, have
the AEB system checked. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer for this service
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The sensorAis located on the front of the
vehicle.
To keep the system operating properly, be
sure to observe the following:
• Always keep the sensor area of the front bumper clean.
• Do not strike or damage the areas around the sensor.
• Do not cover or attach stickers or similar objects on the front bumper near the sen-
sor area. This could cause failure or
malfunction.
Starting and driving5-117
• Do not attach metallic objects near thesensor area (brush guard, etc.). This could
cause failure or malfunction.
• Do not alter, remove or paint the front bumper. Before customizing or restoring
the front bumper, it is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.
