2019 NISSAN LEAF trailer

The MOD system operates in the following
conditions when the camera view is dis-
played:
• When the shif t lever is in the P (Park) or N(Neutral) position and the vehicle is
stopped, the MOD system detects moving
objects in the bird’s-eye view. The MOD
system may not operate if the outside
mirrors are moving in or out, in the stowed
position, or if either front door is opened.
• When the shif t lever is in the D (Drive) po- sition and the vehicle speed is below ap-
proximately 5 mph (8 km/h), the MOD sys-
tem detects moving objects in the front
view.
• When the shif t lever is in the R (Reverse) position and the vehicle speed is below
approximately 5 mph (8 km/h), the MOD
system detects moving objects in the rear
view. The MOD system will not operate if
the rear hatch is open.
The MOD system does not detect moving
objects in the front-side view. The MOD
icon is not displayed on the screen when in
this view. When the MOD system detects moving ob-
jects near the vehicle, a chime will be heard
and a yellow frame will be displayed on the
view where the objects are detected. While
the MOD system continues to detect mov-
ing objects, the yellow frame continues to
be displayed.
NOTE:
While the Rear Cross Traffic Alert chime
(if so equipped) is beeping, the MOD sys-
tem does not chime.
In the bird’s-eye view, the yellow frame
1
is displayed on each camera image (front,
rear, right, lef t) depending on where mov-
ing objects are detected.
The yellow frame
2is displayed on each
view in the front view and rear view modes.
A blue MOD icon
3is displayed in the view
where the MOD system is operative. A gray
MOD icon is displayed in the view where the
MOD system is not operative.
If the MOD system is turned off, the MOD
icon
3is not displayed.

I-LI SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the I-LI system. Failure to fol-
low the warnings and instructions for
proper use of the I-LI system could re-
sult in serious injury or death.
• The I-LI system may activate if you change lanes without first activat-
ing your turn signal or, for example,
if a construction zone directs traffic
to cross an existing lane marker. If
this occurs you may need to apply
corrective steering to complete your
lane change.
• Because the I-LI may not activate under the road, weather, and lane
marker conditions described in this
section, it may not activate every
time your vehicle begins to leave its
lane and you will need to apply cor-
rective steering.
• When the I-LI system is operating, avoid excessive or sudden steering
maneuvers. Otherwise, you could
lose control of the vehicle. • The I-LI system will not operate at
speeds below approximately
37 mph (60 km/h) or if it cannot de-
tect lane markers.
• Do not use the I-LI system under the following conditions as it may not
function properly:
– During bad weather (rain, fog,snow, etc.).
– When driving on slippery roads, such as on ice or snow.
– When driving on winding or un- even roads.
– When there is a lane closure due to road repairs.
– When driving in a makeshif t or temporary lane.
– When driving on roads where the lane width is too narrow.
– When driving without normal tire conditions (for example, tire wear,
low tire pressure, installation of
spare tire, tire chains, nonstan-
dard wheels).
– When the vehicle is equipped with nonoriginal brake parts or sus-
pension parts.
– When you are towing a trailer or other vehicle. – On roads where there are multiple
parallel lane markers; lane mark-
ers that are faded or not painted
clearly; yellow painted lane mark-
ers; non-standard lane markers;
or lane markers covered with wa-
ter, dirt, snow, etc.
– On roads where discontinued lane markers are still detectable.
– On roads where there are sharp curves.
– On roads where there are sharply contrasting objects, such as shad-
ows, snow, water, wheel ruts,
seams or lines remaining af ter
road repairs. (The I-LI system
could detect these items as lane
markers.)
– On roads where the traveling lane merges or separates.
– When the vehicle’s traveling direc- tion does not align with the lane
marker.
– When traveling close to the ve- hicle in front of you, which ob-
structs the lane camera unit de-
tection range.
– When rain, snow or dirt adheres to the windshield in front of the lane
camera unit.
5-34Starting and driving

• Always pay attention to the opera-tion of the vehicle and be ready to
manually control the proper follow-
ing distance. The ICC system may
not be able to maintain the selected
distance between vehicles (follow-
ing distance) or selected vehicle
speed under some circumstances.
• The system may not detect the ve- hicle in front of you in certain road or
weather conditions. To avoid acci-
dents, never use the ICC system un-
der the following conditions:
– On roads where the traffic is heavyor there are sharp curves
– On slippery road surfaces such as on ice or snow, etc.
– During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.)
– When rain, snow or dirt adhere to the bumper around the distance
sensor – On steep downhill roads (the ve-
hicle may go beyond the set ve-
hicle speed and frequent braking
may result in overheating the
brakes)
– On repeated uphill and downhill roads
– When traffic conditions make it difficult to keep a proper distance
between vehicles because of fre-
quent acceleration or decelera-
tion
– Interference by other radar sources.
• Do not use the ICC system if you are towing a trailer. The system may not
detect a vehicle ahead.
• In some road or traffic conditions, a vehicle or object can unexpectedly
come into the sensor detection zone
and cause automatic braking. Al-
ways stay alert and avoid using the
ICC system where not recom-
mended in this warning section. The radar sensor will not detect the follow-
ing objects:
• Stationary and slow moving vehicles
• Pedestrians or objects in the roadway
• Oncoming vehicles in the same lane
• Motorcycles traveling offset in the travel
lane
The sensor generally detects the signals
returned from the vehicle ahead. Therefore,
if the sensor cannot detect the reflection
from the vehicle ahead, the ICC system
may not maintain the selected distance.
The following are some conditions in which
the sensor cannot properly detect a ve-
hicle ahead and the system may not oper-
ate properly:
• When snow or road spray from traveling vehicles reduces the sensor’s detection.
• When your vehicle is towing a trailer, etc.
• When excessively heavy baggage is loaded in the rear seat or the cargo area of
your vehicle.
Starting and driving5-69

• As there is a performance limit to thedistance control function, never rely
solely on the ICC system. This sys-
tem does not correct careless, inat-
tentive or absentminded driving or
overcome poor visibility in rain, fog,
or other bad weather. Decelerate the
vehicle speed by depressing the
brake pedal, depending on the dis-
tance to the vehicle ahead and the
surrounding circumstances in order
to maintain a safe distance between
vehicles.
• When the ICC system automatically brings the car to a stop, your vehicle
can automatically accelerate if the
vehicle is stopped for less than ap-
proximately 3 seconds. Be prepared
to stop your vehicle if necessary.
• Always pay attention to the opera- tion of the vehicle and be ready to
manually control the proper follow-
ing distance. The ICC system may
not be able to maintain the selected
distance between vehicles (follow-
ing distance) or selected vehicle
speed under some circumstances. • The system may not detect the ve-
hicle in front of you in certain road or
weather conditions. To avoid acci-
dents, never use the ICC system un-
der the following conditions:
– On roads with heavy, high-speedtraffic or sharp curves
– On slippery road surfaces such as on ice or snow, etc.
– During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.)
– When rain, snow or dirt adhere to the bumper around the distance
sensor
– On steep downhill roads (the ve- hicle may go beyond the set ve-
hicle speed and frequent braking
may result in overheating the
brakes)
– On repeated uphill and downhill roads
– When traffic conditions make it difficult to keep a proper distance
between vehicles because of fre-
quent acceleration or decelera-
tion
–
Interference by other radar sources
• Do not use the ICC system if you are towing a trailer. The system may not
detect a vehicle ahead.
• In some road or traffic conditions, a vehicle or object can unexpectedly
come into the sensor detection zone
and cause automatic braking. Al-
ways stay alert and avoid using the
ICC system where not recom-
mended in this warning section.
The ICC system will not detect the following
objects:
• Stationary or slow moving vehicles
• Pedestrians or objects in the roadway
• Oncoming vehicles in the same lane
• Motorcycles traveling offset in the travel lane
The following are some conditions in which
the radar sensor cannot properly detect a
vehicle ahead and the system may not op-
erate properly:
• When the sensor detection is reduced (conditions such as rain, snow, fog, dust
storms, sandstorms, and road spray from
other vehicles)
Starting and driving5-97

• 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

– When a sudden change in bright-ness occurs (for example, when
the vehicle enters or exits a tunnel
or is under a bridge)
– When driving on roads where the traveling lane merges or sepa-
rates or where there are tempo-
rary lane markers because of road
construction
– When there is a lane closure due to road repairs
–
When driving on a bumpy road sur-
face,suchasanunevendirtroad
– When driving on sharp curves or winding roads
– When driving on repeated uphill and downhill roads
• Do not use the Steering Assist under the following conditions because
the system will not operate properly:
–
When driving with a tire that is not
within normal tire conditions (for
example, tire wear, abnormal tire
pressure, installation of a spare tire,
tire chains, nonstandard wheels)
– When the vehicle is equipped withnon-original brake or suspension
parts – When an object such as a sticker
or cargo obstructs the camera
– When excessively heavy baggage is loaded in the rear seat or lug-
gage area of your vehicle
– When the vehicle load capacity is exceeded
– When towing a trailer or other ve- hicle
• Excessive noise will interfere with the warning chime sound, and the
beep may not be heard.
• For the ProPILOT Assist system to operate properly, the windshield in
front of the camera must be clean.
Replace worn wiper blades. The cor-
rect size wiper blades must be used
to help make sure the windshield is
kept clean. Only use Genuine NISSAN
wiper blades, or equivalent wiper
blades, that are specifically de-
signed for use on your vehicle model
and model year. It is recommended
that you visit a NISSAN certified LEAF
dealer for the correct parts for your
vehicle.
Steering Assist temporary
standby
Automatic standby due to driving opera-
tion:
When the driver activates the turn signal,
the Steering Assist is temporarily placed in
a standby mode. (The Steering Assist re-
starts automatically when the operating
conditions are met again.)
Automatic standby:
In the following cases, a warning message
is displayed along with the chime, and the
Steering Assist is placed in a temporary
standby mode. (The Steering Assist re-
starts automatically when the operating
conditions are met again.)
• When lane markers on both sides are no
longer detected
• When a vehicle ahead is no longer de- tected under approximately 37 mph
(60 km/h)
