WARNING
• Every person who drives or rides in this vehicle should use a seat belt at all
times. Children should be in the rear
seats and in an appropriate restraint.
• The seat belt should be properly ad- justed to a snug fit. Failure to do so
may reduce the effectiveness of the
entire restraint system and increase
the chance or severity of injury in an
accident. Serious injury or death can
occur if the seat belt is not worn prop-
erly.
• Always route the shoulder belt over your shoulder and across your chest.
Never put the belt behind your back,
under your arm or across your neck.
The belt should be away from your face
and neck, but not falling off your
shoulder.
• Position the lap belt as low and snug as possible AROUND THE HIPS, NOT
THE WAIST. A lap belt worn too high
could increase the risk of internal inju-
ries in an accident.
• Be sure the seat belt tongue is se- curely fastened to the proper buckle. • Do not wear the seat belt inside out or
twisted. Doing so may reduce its effec-
tiveness.
• Do not allow more than one person to use the same seat belt.
• Never carry more people in the vehicle than there are seat belts.
• If the seat belt warning light glows continuously while the power switch is
turned ON with all doors closed and all
seat belts fastened, it may indicate a
malfunction in the system. Have the
system checked by a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer.
• No changes should be made to the seat belt system. For example, do not
modify the seat belt, add material, or
install devices that may change the
seat belt routing or tension. Doing so
may affect the operation of the seat
belt system. Modifying or tampering
with the seat belt system may result in
serious personal injury.
• Once seat belt pretensioner(s) have activated, they cannot be reused and
must be replaced together with the
retractor. See a NISSAN certified LEAF
dealer. • Removal and installation of the pre-
tensioner system components should
be done by a NISSAN certified LEAF
dealer.
• All seat belt assemblies, including re- tractors and attaching hardware,
should be inspected after any collision
by a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.
NISSAN recommends that all seat belt
assemblies in use during a collision be
replaced unless the collision was mi-
nor and the belts show no damage and
continue to operate properly. Seat belt
assemblies not in use during a colli-
sion should also be inspected and re-
placed if either damage or improper
operation is noted.
• All child restraints and attaching hard- ware should be inspected after any
collision. Always follow the restraint
manufacturer’s inspection instructions
and replacement recommendations.
The child restraints should be replaced
if they are damaged.

The Power meter also indicates if the power
provided to the motor is limited or if regenerative
braking is limited. When power or regenerative
braking is limited, the circles on the display
change from a double circle to a single circle
2.
Regenerative braking is automatically reduced
when the Li-ion battery is fully charged to prevent
the Li-ion battery from becoming overcharged.
Regenerative braking is also automatically re-
duced when the Li-ion battery temperature is
high/low (indicated by the red/blue zones on the
Li-ion battery temperature gauge) to prevent Li-
ion battery damage.
The more regenerative braking is reduced, the
more double circles change to single circles
If the Li-ion battery charge is low, power provided
to the traction motor is reduced. Motor output is
also limited if the Li-ion battery temperature is
high/low (indicated by the red/blue zones on the
Li-ion battery temperature gauge) or the Li-ion
battery charge level is low.
The more power provided to the traction motor is
reduced, the more double circles change to
single circles.
DRIVING RANGE
The driving range1(miles or km) provides an
estimated distance that the vehicle can be driven
before recharging is necessary. The driving range
is constantly being calculated, based on the
amount of available Li-ion battery charge and the
actual power consumption average.
NOTE:
• The driving range display will flash when
the low battery charge warning light illu-
minates. Additionally, if you continue 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 battery is charged, the
original display will be restored.
• After the vehicle is charged, the displayed
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 decreases
when the air conditioner, heater or Li-ion
battery warmer (if so equipped) is turned
on or off, or when the ECO mode is se-
lected, or when any other accessory is
turned on or off based on driving.
