The current mode of the charge connector
lock (AUTO, LOCK or UNLOCK) is displayed.
For additional information, see “Charge
connector lock system” (P. CH-41).
When the OK button on the steering wheel
is pressed, the display will be switched to
the “EV Settings” menu. In the EV Settings,
the setting of the charging timer, Climate
Ctrl. timer and charge connector lock
mode can be changed. For additional infor-
mation, see “Vehicle information display”
(P. 2-26).
When the
button on the steering
wheel is pressed while the timer display is
shown, the display is switched to the ECO
Drive Report (if the vehicle was driven).
Either display will continue to be displayed
for another 30 seconds when the button is
operated. If the doors are locked af ter the
power switch was placed in the OFF posi-
tion, the display will turn off before the pre-
set time.
For models with Navigation System, the
day of the week is displayed with the time
(hour and minute) in each information
O1–
O3.
In addition to the above, note the following
conditions for the charging time
O1infor-
mation: • The charging time is displayed by the 10
minutes. If the estimated charging time is
longer than 24 hours, “Over 24h” is
displayed.
• When the charging is set to start imme- diately af ter connecting the charge con-
nector to the vehicle, the start time is
displayed as “Charge Now”.
• While being charged, the time when the charging has actually started is displayed
as the start time. The end time is dis-
played according to the estimated
charging time that was calculated based
on the electrical power being supplied.
• For models with Li-ion battery warmer, the charging system calculates the elec-
trical power used by the battery warmer
when the Li-ion battery temperature is
low, and longer charging time will be
displayed.
• When “Chg. Timer Only at HOME” is set to ON (models with Navigation System) in
the EV Settings, the start time is displayed
only when the power switch is placed in
the OFF position at home. If the power
switch is placed in the OFF position other
than at home, the immediate charge
mode is selected and “Charge Now” will
appear as the start time. • When “Full charge has priority” is set to ON
in the EV Settings and the Li-ion battery
cannot be charged to a full level within
the hours between the scheduled start
time and end time of the charging timer,
the charging time shows the time that
exceeds the scheduled hours in the
charging timer.
• If you need to confirm the estimated charging time depending on the avail-
able electrical power (supplied to the
charger), see the Estimated Charge Time
display. For additional information, see
“Meters and gauges” (P. 2-5).
NOTE:
• The displayed end time of charging is an estimation. The Li-ion battery may
not be charged to a full level by the
estimated end time.
• If the charging timer and the Climate Ctrl. timer are set to operate at the
same time, longer charging time will be
displayed or the Li-ion battery may not
be charged to a full level at the sched-
uled end time.

• An object placed under the front passen-ger seat.
• An object placed between the seat cush- ion and center console or between the
seat cushion and the door.
• An object hanging on the seat or placed in the seatback pocket.
• A child restraint or other object pressing against the rear of the seatback.
NOTE:
The rear seats may be equipped with a
seat belt warning in the vehicle informa-
tion display.
For additional information, see “Vehicle In-
formation Display” (P. 2-26).
PREGNANT WOMEN
NISSAN recommends that pregnant
women use seat belts. The seat belt should
be worn snug, and always position the lap
belt as low as possible around the hips, not
the waist. Place the shoulder belt over your
shoulder and across your chest. Never put
the lap/shoulder belt over your abdominal
area. Contact your doctor for specific
recommendations.
INJURED PERSONS
NISSAN recommends that injured persons
use seat belts, depending on the injury.
Check with your doctor for specific
recommendations.
THREE-POINT TYPE SEAT BELT
WITH RETRACTOR
WARNING
• Every person who drives or rides in
this vehicle should use a seat belt at
all times.
• Do not ride in a moving vehicle when
the seatback is reclined. This can be
dangerous. The shoulder belt will not
be against your body. In an accident,
you could be thrown into it and re-
ceive neck or other serious injuries.
You could also slide under the lap belt
and receive serious internal injuries.
• For the most effective protection
when the vehicle is in motion, the
seat should be upright. Always sit
well back and upright in the seat with
both feet on the floor and adjust the
seat belt properly. •
Do not allow children to play with the
seat belts. Most seating positions are
equipped with Automatic Locking
Retractor (ALR) mode seat belts. If
the seat belt becomes wrapped
around a child’s neck with the ALR
mode activated, the child can be se-
riously injured or killed if the seat belt
retracts and becomes tight. This can
occur even if the vehicle is parked.
Unbuckle the seat belt to release the
child. If the seat belt cannot be un-
buckled or is already unbuckled, re-
lease the child by cutting the seat
belt with a suitable tool (such as a
knife or scissors) to release the seat
belt.
Fastening the seat belts
1. Adjust the seat. For additional informa- tion, see “Seats” (P. 1-2).
Safety–Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-15

3. Fasten the seat belt as outlined in the“Seat belts” (P. 1-11) section of this
manual. Front passenger seat belt
buckle status is monitored by the occu-
pant classification system and is used
as an input to determine occupancy
status. So, it is highly recommended that
the front passenger fasten their seat
belt.
4. Remain in this position for 30 seconds allowing the system to classif y the front
passenger before the vehicle is put into
motion.
5. Ensure proper classification by checking the front passenger air bag status light.
NOTE:
This vehicle’s occupant classification
sensor system generally keeps the clas-
sification locked during driving, so it is
important that you confirm that the
front passenger is properly classified
prior to driving. However, the occupant
classification sensor may recalculate the
weight of the occupant under some con-
ditions (both while driving and when
stopped), so front passenger seat occu-
pants should continue to remain seated
as outlined above. Troubleshooting
If you think the front passenger air bag
status light is incorrect:
1. If the light is ON with an adult occupying
the front passenger seat:
• Occupant is a small adult — the air bag light is functioning as intended. The
front passenger air bag and front pas-
senger supplemental knee air bag are
suppressed.
However, if the occupant is not a small
adult, then this may be due to the following
conditions that may be interfering with the
weight sensors: • Occupant is not sitting upright, lean-ing against the seatback, and cen-
tered on the seat cushion with his/her
feet comfortably extended to the floor.
• A child restraint or other object press- ing against the rear of the seatback.
• A rear passenger pushing or pulling on the back of the front passenger seat.
• Forcing the front seat or seatback against an object on the seat or floor
behind it.
• An object placed under the front pas- senger seat. • An object placed between the seat
cushion and center console or be-
tween the seat cushion and the door.
If the vehicle is moving, please come to a
stop when it is safe to do so. Check and
correct any of the above conditions. Re-
start the vehicle and wait 1 minute.
NOTE:
A system check will be performed during
which the front passenger air bag status
light will remain lit for about 7 seconds
initially.
If the light is still ON af ter this, the person
should be advised not to ride in the front
passenger seat and the vehicle should be
checked as soon as possible. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer for this service.
2. If the light is OFF with a small adult, child or child restraint occupying the front
passenger seat.
This may be due to the following condi-
tions that may be interfering with the
weight sensors:
•
Small adult or child is not sitting upright,
leaning against the seatback, and cen-
tered on the seat cushion with his/her
feet comfortably extended to the floor.
