Other supplemental front-impact air
bag precautions
WARNING
• Do not place any objects on the
steering wheel pad or on the instru-
ment panel. Also, do not place any
objects between any occupant and
the steering wheel or instrument
panel. Such objects may become
dangerous projectiles and cause in-
jury if the front air bags inflate.
• Do not place objects with sharp
edges on the seat. Also, do not place
heavy objects on the seat that will
leave permanent impressions in the
seat. Such objects can damage the
seat or occupant classification sen-
sor (weight sensor). This can affect
the operation of the air bag system
and result in serious personal injury.
• Do not use water or acidic cleaners
(hot steam cleaners) on the seat. This
can damage the seat or occupant
classification sensor. This can also
affect the operation of the air bag
system and result in serious personal
injury.

the charging time will be displayed as
[---].
• When the Li-ion battery was fully charge, all the charging time information will be
displayed as [---].
O3The currently selected electrical power
(supplied to the charger).
O4The estimated charge level of the Li-ion
battery to be reached when the remaining
charging time has passed.
O5The electrical power that is actually sup-
plied while quick charging.
O6The remaining charging time before the

When charging is not performed, pushing
the OKbutton on the steering wheel will
switch the display to the [Charge Time
Screen]. Select the electrical power that
you wish to show in the Estimated Charge
Time display.
NOTE:
• While charging, the estimated charg- ing time is calculated based on the
electrical power that is currently being
supplied to the charger.
• The electrical power for the normal charging is displayed at a fixed value.
Therefore, the displayed electrical
power may differ from the one that is
actually supplied.
• For the quick charging, the electrical power display will change to the actual
electrical power while charging. If the
charging is stopped or the power sup-
ply is stopped (unplugged, etc.), the
displayed electrical power returns to
the selected electrical power. • The displayed charging time on each
percentage level is the current estima-
tion, and the actual charging time will
vary depending on the conditions of
the vehicle or the state of charge.
• Right af ter starting of stopping charge, the estimated charging time
may differ from the actual charging
time. The actual charging time will be
displayed af ter a period of time.

The DC/DC converter system may
not be functioning properly if the 12-
volt warning light illuminates con-
tinuously when the power switch is in
the READY to drive position. Do not
charge the 12-volt battery while this
warning light is illuminated. It may
lead to a malfunction of the DC/DC
converter system. Have the system
checked. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer
for this service.
NOTE:
• If the vehicle does not go into the READY to drive position (when the
power switch is pushed and the brake
pedal is depressed), jump-start the ve-
hicle to place the power switch in the
READY to drive position. For additional
information, see “Jump starting”
(P. 6-10).
• Do not jump-start the vehicle if the conditions below occur. Have the sys-
tem checked. It is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer
for this service:– If the 12-volt charge warning light turns off when the vehicle is in the
READY to drive mode, the 12-volt bat-
tery may be discharged or there may be a malfunction in the 12-volt bat-
tery related system.
– If the 12-volt charge warning light continues to illuminate when the ve-
hicle is in the READY to drive mode,
there may be a malfunction in the

checked. It is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer
for this service.
orBrake warning
light
When the power switch is placed in the ON
position or in the READY to drive position,
the light remains illuminated for about a
few seconds. If the light illuminates at any
other time, it may indicate that the hydrau-

The indicator illuminates when a part in the
EV system has malfunctioned. If the indica-
tor illuminates in a situation other than
those described above, or if it does not turn
off, there may be a system malfunction.
Have the system checked. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer for this service.
WARNING
Power limitation mode can result in re-
duced power and vehicle speed. The re-
duced speed may be lower than other
traffic, which could increase the chance
of a collision. Be especially careful
when driving. If the vehicle cannot
maintain a safe driving speed, pull to
the side of the road in a safe area.
Charge the Li-ion battery if the charge
is low or allow the Li-ion battery to cool.
NOTE:
You can reduce charging time and keep
the Li-ion battery temperature lower if
you:
• Charge more frequently in smaller amounts, and
• Keep the battery at a higher level of charge.
Power steering
warning light
When the power switch is in the ON posi-
tion, the electric power steering warning
light illuminates and turns off when the

drive position. This indicates the electric
power steering system is operational.
If the electric power steering warning light
illuminates while the READY to drive indica-
tor light is ON, it may indicate the electric
power steering system is not functioning
properly and may need servicing. Have the
electric power steering system checked. It
is recommended that you visit a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer for this service.
When the electric power steering warning
light illuminates while the READY to drive
indicator is ON, the power assist to the
steering will cease operation but you will
still have control of the vehicle. At this time,
greater steering efforts are required to op-
erate the steering wheel, especially in
sharp turns and at low speeds.
For additional information, see “Power
steering system” (P. 5-161).

tem is on, it may indicate that the system is
unavailable. For additional information, see
“Rear Automatic Braking (RAB)” (P. 5-136).
Slip indicator light
This indicator light will blink when the VDC
system or the traction control system is
operating, thus alerting that the vehicle is
nearing its traction limits. The road surface
may be slippery.
You may feel or hear the system working;
this is normal. The light will blink for a few
seconds af ter the VDC system stops limit-
ing wheel spin.
The indicator light also comes on when

Instruments and controls2-37

NOTE:
• A series of operation sounds may beheard immediately af ter climate con-
trol ON/OFF operation. This is not a
malfunction.
• Compressor and motor fan may sud- denly start to operate during charging
operation. This is not a malfunction.
• Condensation forms inside the air con- ditioning unit when the air conditioner
is running, and is safely discharged un-
derneath your vehicle. Traces of water
on the ground are therefore normal.
Water may drop underneath the ve-
hicle when climate control is operating.
DISPLAYING CLIMATE CONTROL
SYSTEM STATUS SCREEN (models
with navigation system)
The climate control system status screen
can be displayed as a widget. For details of
the widget, refer to the NissanConnect®
Manual.
NOTE:
• If the READY to drive indicator light isilluminated and the EVSE (Electric Ve-
hicle Supply Equipment) is connected
to the vehicle, the power switch will
change to the ON position. At the same
time, the climate control system will
stop operating. However, the fan will
continue to operate. If you want to turn
on climate control again, place the
power switch in the OFF position and
then place it in the ON position again
af ter confirming that the vehicle has
started charging.
• When the power switch is in the ON position, if the power supply from the
EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equip-
ment) is interrupted due to an electri-
cal outage, etc., the system will operate
in the following ways.– If it occurs while charging is being performed:
The climate control system will stop
once. If the power supply is restored
within approximately 5 minutes, the
climate control system will restart.
However, if more than 5 minutes have
elapsed, the climate control system
will not restart.
–
If it occurs af ter charging has finished:The climate control system will stop.
OPERATING TIPS
• The automatic climate control is
equipped with sensors as illustrated. The
sensors
OAandOBhelp maintain a con-
stant temperature. Do not put anything
on or around these sensors.
• Power consumption of the climate con- trol system varies depending on the out-
side temperature and the temperature
set for the climate control system. Power
consumption increases if the interior
temperature is cooled down too much in
summer or if it warmed up too much in
winter. This will result in a reduced driving
range.
