INTELLIGENT AROUND VIEW®
MONITOR SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for Intelligent Around View® Monitor.
Failure to operate the vehicle in accor-
dance with these system limitations
could result in serious injury or death.
• Do not use the Intelligent Around
View® Monitor with the outside mir-
rors in the stored position, and make
sure that the rear hatch is securely
closed when operating the vehicle
using the Intelligent Around View®
Monitor.
• The apparent distance between ob-
jects viewed on the Intelligent
Around View® Monitor differs from
the actual distance.
• The cameras are installed on the
front grille, the outside mirrors and
above the rear license plate. Do not
put anything on the vehicle that cov-
ers the cameras.
• When washing the vehicle with high
pressure water, be sure not to spray it
around the cameras. Otherwise, wa-
ter may enter the camera unit caus-
ing water condensation on the lens, a
malfunction, fire or an electric shock. •
Do not strike the cameras. They are
precision instruments. Doing so
could cause a malfunction or cause
damage resulting in a fire or an elec-
tric shock.
There are some areas where the system
will not show objects and the system does
not warn of moving objects. When in the
front or rear view display, an object below
the bumper or on the ground may not be
viewed
O1. When in the bird’s-eye view, a
tall object near the seam
O2of the camera
viewing areas will not appear in the
monitor.
The following are operating limitations and
do not represent a system malfunction:
• There may be a delay when switching between views.
• When the temperature is extremely high or low, the screen may not display objects
clearly.
• When strong light directly shines on the camera, objects may not be displayed
clearly.
• The screen may flicker under fluorescent light.
• The colors of objects on the Intelligent Around View® Monitor may differ some-
what from the actual color of objects.

• Objects on the Intelligent Around View®Monitor may not be clear and the color of
the object may differ in a dark
environment.
• There may be differences in sharpness between each camera view of the bird’s-
eye view.
• Do not use wax on the camera lens. Wipe off any wax with a clean cloth that has
been dampened with a diluted mild
cleaning agent, then wipe with a dry
cloth.
System temporarily unavailable
When the “!” icon is displayed on the screen,
there are abnormal conditions in the Intel-
ligent Around View® Monitor. This will not
hinder normal driving operation but the
system should be inspected. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer for this service. When the “[X]” icon is displayed on the
screen, the camera image may be receiv-
ing temporary electronic disturbances
from surrounding devices. This will not hin-
der normal driving operation but the sys-
tem should be inspected if it occurs fre-
quently. It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN certified LEAF dealer for this
service.

SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
• Do not use alcohol, benzine or thin-
ner to clean the camera. This will
cause discoloration.
• Do not damage the cameras as the
monitor screen may be adversely
affected. If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on any of
the cameras
O1, the Intelligent Around
View® Monitor may not display objects
clearly. Clean the camera by wiping with a
cloth dampened with a diluted mild clean-
ing agent and then wiping with a dry cloth.

(if so equipped)
Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems4-23

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the Moving
object Detection (MOD) system could
result in serious injury or death.
• The MOD system is not a substitute
for proper vehicle operation and is
not designed to prevent contact with
objects surrounding the vehicle.
When maneuvering, always use the
outside mirrors and rearview mirror
and turn and check the surroundings
to ensure it is safe to maneuver.
• The system is deactivated at speeds
above 5 mph (8 km/h). It is reacti-
vated at lower speeds.
• The MOD system is not designed to
detect surrounding stationary
objects.
The MOD system can inform the driver of
moving objects near the vehicle when
backing out of garages, maneuvering in
parking lots and in other such instances.
The MOD system detects moving objects
by using image processing technology on
the image shown in the display.MOD SYSTEM OPERATION
The MOD system will turn on automatically
under the following conditions:
• When the shif t lever is in the R (Reverse) position.
• When vehicle speed decreases below ap- proximately 5 mph (8 km/h) and the
camera screen is displayed.
The MOD system operates in the following
conditions when the camera view is
displayed:
• When the shif t position is in the P (Park) orN (Neutral) position and the vehicle is
stopped, the MOD system detects mov-
ing objects in the bird’s-eye view. The
MOD system may not operate if the out-
side mirrors are moving in or out, in the
stowed position, or if either front door is
opened.

Front and bird’s-eye views
4-24Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems

• When the shif t lever is in the D (Drive)position and the vehicle speed is below
approximately 5 mph (8 km/h), the MOD
system 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 oper-
ate 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 is
beeping, the MOD system does not
chime.
In the bird’s-eye view, the yellow frame
O1is
displayed on each camera image (front,
rear, right, lef t) depending on where mov-
ing objects are detected.
The yellow frame
O2is displayed on each
view in the front view and rear view modes.

MOD SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for MOD. Failure to operate the vehicle
in accordance with these system limi-
tations could result in serious injury or
death.
• Excessive noise (for example, audio
system volume or open vehicle win-
dow) will interfere with the chime
sound, and it may not be heard.
• The MOD system performance will be
limited according to environmental
conditions and surrounding objects
such as:
– When there is low contrast be-
tween background and the mov-
ing objects.
– When there is a blinking source of
light.
– When strong light such as another
vehicle’s headlight or sunlight is
present.
– When camera orientation is not in
its usual position, such as when a
mirror is folded. –
When there is dirt, water drops or
snow on the camera lens.
– When the position of the moving
objects in the display is not
changed.
• The MOD system might detect flow-
ing water droplets on the camera
lens, white smoke from the muffler,
moving shadows, etc.
• The MOD system may not function
properly depending on the speed, di-
rection, distance or shape of the
moving objects.
• If your vehicle sustains damage to
the parts where the camera is in-
stalled, leaving it misaligned or bent,
the sensing zone may be altered and
the MOD system may not detect ob-
jects properly.
• When the temperature is extremely
high or low, the screen may not dis-
play objects clearly. This is not a
malfunction.

NOTE:
The blue MOD icon will change to orange
if one of the following has occurred:
• When the system is malfunctioning.
• When the component temperaturereaches a high level (icon will blink).
• When the RearView camera has de- tected a blockage (icon will blink).
If the icon light continues to illuminate
orange, have the MOD system checked. It
is recommended that you visit a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer for this service.
