2019 NISSAN LEAF fog light

Acceleration when passing
When the ICC system is engaged above
43 mph and following a slower vehicle (be-
low ICC set speed), and the turn signal is
activated to the lef t, the ICC system will
automatically start to accelerate the ve-
hicle to help initiate passing on the lef t and
will begin to reduce the distance to the
vehicle directly ahead. Only the lef t side
turn signal operates this feature. As the
driver steers the vehicle and moves into
the passing lane, if no vehicle is detected
ahead the ICC system will continue to ac-
celerate to the ICC system set speed. If an-
other vehicle is detected ahead, then the
vehicle will accelerate up to the following
speed of that vehicle. If the vehicle is not
steered into the lef t lane to pass, the accel-
eration will stop af ter a short time and re-
gain the set following distance. Accelera-
tion can be stopped at any point by
depressing the brake pedal or the CANCEL
switch on the steering wheel.WARNING
In order to reduce the risk of a collision
that may result in serious injury or
death, please be aware of the follow-
ing:
• This function is only activated with the lef t turn signal and will briefly
accelerate the vehicle even if a lane
change is not initiated. This can in-
clude non-passing situations such
as lef t side exits.
• Ensure that when passing another vehicle, the adjacent lane is clear be-
fore initiating the pass. Sudden
changes in traffic may occur while
passing.
– Always manually steer or brake asneeded
– Never solely rely on the system
ICC system limitations
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the ICC system. Failure to op-
erate the vehicle in accordance with
these system limitations could result
in serious injury or death:
• The ICC system is primarily intended for use on straight, dry, open roads
with light traffic. It is not advisable to
use the ICC system in city traffic or
congested areas.
• The ICC system will not adapt auto- matically to road conditions. This
system should be used in evenly
flowing traffic. Do not use the sys-
tem on roads with sharp curves or
on icy roads, in heavy rain or in fog.
5-96Starting and driving

• Driving on a steep downhill slope or roadswith sharp curves
• Driving on a bumpy road surface, such as an uneven dirt road
• If dirt, ice, snow or other material is cover- ing the radar sensor area
• A complicated-shaped vehicle such as a car carrier trailer or flatbed truck/trailer is
near the vehicle ahead
• Interference by other radar sources
• When your vehicle is towing a trailer, etc.
• When excessively heavy baggage is loaded in the rear seat or cargo area of
your vehicle
The ICC system is designed to automati-
cally check the radar sensor’s operation
within the limitations of the system. The detection zone of the radar sensor is
limited. A vehicle ahead must be in the de-
tection zone for the ICC system to maintain
the selected distance from the vehicle
ahead. A vehicle ahead may move outside
of the detection zone due to its position
within the same lane of travel. Motorcycles
may not be detected in the same lane
ahead if they are traveling offset from the
center line of the lane. A vehicle that is en-
tering the lane ahead may not be detected
until the vehicle has completely moved into
the lane.
If this occurs, the ICC system may warn you
by blinking the system indicator and
sounding the chime. The driver may have
to manually control the proper distance
away from the vehicle traveling ahead.
The ICC system (with ProPILOT Assist) uses
a multi-sensing front camera. The follow-
ing are some conditions in which the cam-
era may not properly detect a vehicle and
detection of a vehicle ahead may be de-
layed:
• Poor visibility (conditions such as rain,
snow, fog, dust storms, sandstorms, and
road spray from other vehicles)
• The camera area of the windshield is fogged up or covered with dirt, water
drops, ice, snow, etc.
• Strong light (for example, sunlight or high beams from oncoming vehicles) enters
the front camera
• A sudden change in brightness occurs (for example, when the vehicle enters or exits
a tunnel or shaded area or lightning
flashes)
5-98Starting and driving

WARNING
Steering Assist is not a system for
hands-free driving. Always keep your
hands on the steering wheel and drive
your vehicle safely. Failure to do so
could cause a collision resulting in se-
rious personal injury or death.
NOTE:
If the driver lightly touches (instead of
firmly grips) the steering wheel, the
steering torque sensor may not detect
the driver’s hand(s) on the wheel and a
sequence of warnings may occur.
When the driver holds and operates
the steering wheel again, the warn-
ings turn off.
Steering Assist limitations
WARNING
• In the following situations, the cam- era may not detect lane markers
correctly or may detect lane mark-
ers incorrectly and the Steering As-
sist may not operate properly:
– When driving on roads wherethere are multiple parallel lane
markers, lane markers that are
faded or not painted clearly, non-
standard lane markers, or lane
markers covered with water, dirt,
snow, etc.
– When driving on roads with dis- continued lane markers
– When driving on roads with a wid- ening or narrowing lane width
– When driving on roads where there are multiple lanes or unclear
lane markers due to road con-
struction
– When driving on roads where there are sharply contrasting ob-
jects, such as shadows, snow,
water, wheel ruts, seams, or lines
remaining af ter road repairs (the Steering Assist could detect these
items as lane markers)
– When driving on roads where the traveling lane merges or sepa-
rates
• Do not use the Steering Assist under the following conditions because
the system may not properly detect
lane markers. Doing so could cause a
loss of vehicle control and result in
an accident.
– During bad weather (rain, fog,snow, dust, etc.)
– When rain, snow, sand, etc., is thrown up by the wheels of other
vehicles
– When dirt, oil, ice, snow, water, or another object adheres to the
camera unit
– When the lens of the camera unit is foggy
– When strong light (for example, sunlight or high beams from on-
coming vehicles) shines on the
camera
– When the headlights are not bright due to dirt on the lens or
the headlights are off in tunnels or
in darkness

AEB WITH PEDESTRIAN
DETECTION SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the AEB with Pedestrian De-
tection system. Failure to operate the
vehicle in accordance with these sys-
tem limitations could result in serious
injury or death.
• The AEB with Pedestrian Detection system cannot detect all vehicles or
pedestrians under all conditions.
• The AEB with Pedestrian Detection system does not detect the follow-
ing objects:
–
Small pedestrians (including small
children), animals and cyclists.
– Pedestrians in wheelchairs or us-ing mobile transport such as
scooters, child-operated toys, or
skateboards.
– Pedestrians who are seated or otherwise not in a full upright
standing or walking position.
– Oncoming vehicles
– Crossing vehicles
– Obstacles on the roadside • The AEB with Pedestrian Detection
system has some performance limi-
tations.
– If a stationary vehicle is in the ve-hicle’s path, the AEB with Pedes-
trian Detection system will not
function when the vehicle is
driven at speeds over approxi-
mately 50 mph (80 km/h).
– For pedestrian detection, the AEB with Pedestrian Detection system
will not function when the vehicle
is driven at speeds over approxi-
mately 37 mph (60 km/h) or below
approximately 6 mph (10 km/h).
• The AEB with Pedestrian Detection system will not function for pedes-
trians in darkness or in tunnels, even
if there is street lighting in the area.
• The AEB with Pedestrian Detection system may not function if the ve-
hicle ahead is narrow (for example, a
motorcycle).
• The AEB with Pedestrian Detection system may not function if speed
difference between the two vehicles
is too small. • The radar sensor AEB with Pedes-
trian Detection system may not
function properly or detect a vehicle
ahead in the following conditions:
– Poor visibility (conditions such asrain, snow, fog, dust storms, sand-
storms, and road spray from other
vehicles)
– Driving on a steep downhill slope or roads with sharp curves.
– Driving on a bumpy road surface, such as an uneven dirt road.
– If dirt, ice, snow or other material is covering the radar sensor area.
–
Interference by other radar sources.– The camera area of windshield is fogged up, or covered with dirt,
water drops, ice, snow, etc.
– Strong light (for example, sunlight or high beams from oncoming ve-
hicles) enters the front camera.
Strong light causes the area
around the pedestrian to be cast
in a shadow, making it difficult to
see.
– A sudden change in brightness occurs (for example, when the ve-
hicle enters or exits a tunnel or a
shaded area or lightning flashes).

Replacing the halogen headlight
bulb (if so equipped)
The headlight is a semi-sealed beam type
that uses a headlight (halogen) bulb. If bulb
replacement is required, it is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer.
CAUTION
• Do not leave the bulb out of the headlight reflector for a long period
of time. Dust, moisture, smoke, etc.
entering the headlight body may af-
fect bulb performance
• High-pressure halogen gas is sealed inside the halogen bulb. The bulb
may break if the glass envelope is
scratched or the bulb is dropped.
• Only touch the base when handling the bulb. Never touch the glass en-
velope. Touching the glass envelope
could significantly affect bulb life
and/or headlight performance. • Aiming is not necessary af ter re-
placing the bulb. When aiming ad-
justment is necessary, it is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer for this service.
• Fog may temporarily form inside the lens of the exterior lights in the rain
or in a car wash. A temperature dif-
ference between the inside and the
outside of the lens causes the fog. If
large drops of water collect inside
the lens, it is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.
Use the same number and wattage as
originally installed as shown in the chart.
