•If you need to dispose of a supple-
mental air bag or pretensioner sys-
tem or scrap the vehicle, it is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer for this service.
Correct supplemental air bag and
pretensioner system disposal proce-
dures are set forth in the appropriate
NISSAN Service Manual. Incorrect
disposal procedures could cause
personal injury.
• If there is an impact to your vehicle
from any direction, your Occupant

checked. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer to
verif y it is still functioning correctly.
The OCS should be checked even if no
air bags deploy as a result of the im-
pact. Failure to verif y proper OCS
function may result in an improper
air bag deployment resulting in in-
jury or death.

NOTE:
• The driving range display will flashwhen the low battery charge indicator
illuminates. Additionally, if you con-
tinue to drive the vehicle in this state
and the Li-ion battery is close to being
completely discharged, “---” will be
displayed. Charge the Li-ion battery as
soon as possible. When the Li-ion bat-
tery is charged, the original display will
be restored.
• Af ter the vehicle is charged, the dis- played driving range is calculated
based on the actual average energy
consumption of the previous driving.
The displayed driving range will vary
every time the vehicle is fully charged.
• The driving range increases or de- creases when the air conditioner,
heater or Li-ion battery warmer (if so
equipped) is turned on or off, or when
the ECO mode is selected, or when any
other accessory is turned on or off
based on driving (for models with
40kWh battery).
• If the rear seat belt reminder message is displayed, the driving range display
is temporarily unavailable.
LI-ION BATTERY AVAILABLE
CHARGE GAUGE
1This gauge indicates the approximate
available Li-ion battery charge to run
the vehicle.
2This figure shows the current state of
charge (%) of the vehicle.
3Low battery charge indicator:
This indicator illuminates yellow when
the available Li-ion battery charge is
getting low. Charge the Li-ion battery before the blue
bar of the gauge
O1disappears.
The low battery charge indicator
O3
illuminates yellow when the available Li-ion
battery charge is getting low. Charge as
soon as it is convenient, preferably before
the blue bar of the gauge
O1disappears.
When the blue bar of the gauge
O1disap-
pears and the charge indicator
O3
illuminates, there is a very small reserve of
Li-ion battery charge remaining.
NOTE:
• The length of the blue bar of the gauge
O1is determined by the available
charge and the amount of charge the
Li-ion battery is capable of storing at
the current temperature.LIC4659
