FCC Notice
Changes or modifications not expressly
approved by the party responsible for
compliance could void the user’s author-
ity to operate the equipment.
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the I-FCW
system could result in serious injury or
death.
• The I-FCW system can help warn the driver before a collision occurs but
will not avoid a collision. It is the driv-
er’s responsibility to stay alert, drive
safely and be in control of the vehicle
at all times.
The I-FCW system can help alert the driver
when there is a sudden braking of a second
vehicle traveling in front of the vehicle
ahead in the same lane. The I-FCW system uses a radar sensor
A
located on the front of the vehicle to mea-
sure distance to the vehicle ahead in the
same lane.

TURNING THE I-FCW SYSTEM
ON/OFF
Perform the following steps to turn the
I-FCW system on or off:
1. Press the
button until “Settings” dis-
plays in the vehicle information display.
Use the
button to select “Driver As-
sistance.” 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 I-FCW system is turned off, the
AEB system warning light illuminates.
NOTE:
• The I-FCW system will be automatically
turned on when the EV system is re-
started.
• The I-FCW system is integrated into the
AEB system. There is not a separate se-
lection in the vehicle information dis-
play for the I-FCW system. When the AEB
is turned off, the I-FCW system is also
turned off.

WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the I-FCW system. Failure to
operate the vehicle in accordance with
these system limitations could result
in serious injury or death.
• The I-FCW system cannot detect all vehicles under all conditions.
• The radar sensor does not detect the following objects:
– Pedestrians, animals or obstaclesin the roadway.
– Oncoming vehicles.
– Crossing vehicles.
• (Illustration A) The I-FCW system does not function when a vehicle
ahead is a narrow vehicle, such as a
motorcycle.
• The radar sensor may not detect a vehicle ahead in the following condi-
tions:
– Snow or heavy rain.
– Dirt, ice, snow or other materialcovering the radar sensor.
–
Interference by other radar sources.– Snow or road spray from traveling vehicles.
– Driving in a tunnel. – (Illustration B) When the vehicle
ahead is being towed.
– (Illustration C) When the distance to the vehicle ahead is too close,
the beam of the radar sensor is
obstructed.
– (Illustration D) When driving on a steep downhill slope or roads with
sharp curves.
• The system is designed to automati- cally check the sensor’s functional-
ity, within certain limitations. The
system may not detect some forms
of obstruction of the sensor area
such as ice, snow, stickers, etc. In
these cases, the system may not be
able to warn 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.

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
I-FCW system is automatically turned off.
The AEB system warning light (orange) will
illuminate.
Action to take
When the above conditions no longer exist,
the I-FCW system will resume automati-
cally.
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.
5-136Starting 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 I-FCW 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.
NOTE:
If the AEB system stops working, the
I-FCW system will also stop working.
SYSTEM MALFUNCTION
If the I-FCW 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 driving5-137

• 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.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the I-DA
system could result in serious injury or
death.
• The I–DA system is only a warning to inform the driver of a potential lack
of driver attention or drowsiness. It
will not steer the vehicle or prevent
loss of control.
• The I–DA system does not detect and provide an alert of the driver’s
lack of attention or fatigue in every
situation.
• It its the driver’s responsibility to: – stay alert,
– drive safely,
– keep the vehicle in the travelinglane,
– be in control of the vehicle at all times,
– avoid driving when tired,
– avoid distractions (texting, etc.). The I–DA system helps alert the driver if the
system detects a lack of attention or driv-
ing fatigue.
The system monitors driving style and
steering behavior over a period of time,
and it detects changes from the normal
pattern. If the system detects that driver
attention is decreasing over a period of
time, the system uses audible and visual
warnings to suggest that the driver take a
break.
I-DA SYSTEM OPERATION
If the system detects driver fatigue or that
driver attention is decreasing, the mes-
sage “Take a break?” appears in the vehicle
information display and a chime sounds
when the vehicle is driven at speeds above
37 mph (60 km/h).
The system continuously monitors driver
attention and can provide multiple warn-
ings per trip.
The system resets and starts reassessing
driving style and steering behavior when the
power switch is cycled from the ON to the
OFF position and back to the ON position.
