3. Remove the license plate bracket and con-nect the arcs from the ovals. Mark the point in
the center of each oval. These are pilot drilling
locations.
Use a 0.49 in (12.5 mm) drill bit for the license
plate screw holes and carefully open holes in
the places marked. (Make sure that the drill
only goes through the fascia.)
4. Install the license plate with two 0.23 in (6 mm) screws.
WARNING
It is extremely dangerous to ride in the cargo area inside the vehicle. In a col-
lision, people riding in these areas are
more likely to be seriously injured or
killed.
Do not allow people to ride in any area of your vehicle that is not equipped
with seats and seat belts.
Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly.
TERMS
It is important to familiarize yourself with the fol-
lowing terms before loading your vehicle:
Curb Weight (actual weight of your vehicle) -
vehicle weight including: standard and optional
equipment, fluids, emergency tools, and spare
tire assembly. This weight does notinclude
passengers and cargo.
GVW (Gross Vehicle Weight) - curb weight plus the combined weight of passengers and
cargo.
GVWR (Gross Vehicle Weight Rating) - maxi- mum total combined weight of the unloaded
vehicle, passengers, luggage, hitch, trailer
tongue load and any other optional equipment. This information is located on the F.M.V.S.S./
C.M.V.S.S. label.
GAWR (Gross Axle Weight Rating) - maximum weight (load) limit specified for the front or rear
axle. This information is located on the
F.M.V.S.S./C.M.V.S.S. label.
GCWR (Gross Combined Weight Rating) - The maximum total weight rating of the vehicle,
passengers, cargo, and trailer.
Vehicle Capacity Weight, Load limit, Total load capacity - maximum total weight limit specified
of the load (passengers and cargo) for the ve-
hicle. This is the maximum combined weight of
occupants and cargo that can be loaded into
the vehicle. If the vehicle is used to tow a trailer,
the trailer tongue weight must be included as
part of the cargo load. This information is lo-
cated on the Tire and Loading Information label.
Cargo capacity - permissible weight of cargo, the subtracted weight of occupants from the
load limit.
VEHICLE LOADING INFORMATION
9-10Technical and consumer information

This vehicle is equipped with an Event Data Re-
corder (EDR) . The main purpose of an EDR is to
record, in certain crash or near crash-like situa-
tions, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a
road obstacle, data that will assist in understand-
ing how a vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR
is designed to record data related to vehicle
dynamics and safety systems for a short period of
time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this
vehicle is designed to record such data as:
How various systems in your vehicle were oper-ating;
Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened;
How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,
How fast the vehicle was traveling.
Sounds are not recorded.
These data can help provide a better understand-
ing of the circumstances in which crashes and
injuries occur.NOTE:
EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only
if a nontrivial crash situation occurs; no
data are recorded by the EDR under normal
driving conditions and no personal data
(for example, name, gender, age and crash
location) are recorded. However, other par-
ties, such as law enforcement, could com-
bine the EDR data with the type of person-
ally identifying data routinely acquired
during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special
equipment is required and access to the
vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition
to the vehicle manufacturer and NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer, other parties, such
as law enforcement, that have the special
equipment, can read the information if
they have access to the vehicle or the
EDR. EDR data will only be accessed with
the consent of the vehicle owner or lessee
or as otherwise required or permitted by
law. Genuine NISSAN Service Manuals for this model
year and prior can be purchased. A genuine
NISSAN Service Manual is the best source of
service and repair information for your vehicle.
This manual is the same one used by the factory
trained technicians working at a NISSAN certi-
fied LEAF dealer. Genuine NISSAN Owner’s
Manuals can also be purchased.
