Intelligent Lane Intervention (I-LI)
When a curve or strong cross wind exceeds
the capabilities of the Steering Assist and
your vehicle approaches either the lef t or
the right side of the traveling lane, a warn-
ing chime sounds and the I-LI indicator
light (orange) on the instrument panel
flashes to alert the driver. Then, the I-LI sys-
tem automatically applies the brakes for a
short period of time to help assist the
driver to return the vehicle to the center of
the traveling lane. This action is in addition
to any Steering Assist actions.
Starting and driving5-103

Hands on detection
When the Steering Assist is activated, it
monitors the driver’s steering wheel opera-
tion.
If the steering wheel is not operated or the
driver takes his/her hands off the steering
wheel for a period of time, the warning
1
appears in the vehicle information display.
If the driver does not operate the steering
wheel af ter the warning has been dis-
played, an audible alert sounds and the
warning flashes in the vehicle information
display, followed by a quick brake applica-
tion to request the driver to take control of
the vehicle again.
If the driver still does not respond, the Pro-
PILOT Assist turns on the hazard flasher
and slows the vehicle to a complete stop.
The driver can cancel the deceleration at
any time by steering, braking, accelerating,
or operating the ProPILOT Assist switch.
5-104Starting and driving

– When a sudden change in bright-ness occurs (for example, when
the vehicle enters or exits a tunnel
or is under a bridge)
– When driving on roads where the traveling lane merges or sepa-
rates or where there are tempo-
rary lane markers because of road
construction
– When there is a lane closure due to road repairs
–
When driving on a bumpy road sur-
face,suchasanunevendirtroad
– When driving on sharp curves or winding roads
– When driving on repeated uphill and downhill roads
• Do not use the Steering Assist under the following conditions because
the system will not operate properly:
–
When driving with a tire that is not
within normal tire conditions (for
example, tire wear, abnormal tire
pressure, installation of a spare tire,
tire chains, nonstandard wheels)
– When the vehicle is equipped withnon-original brake or suspension
parts – When an object such as a sticker
or cargo obstructs the camera
– When excessively heavy baggage is loaded in the rear seat or lug-
gage area of your vehicle
– When the vehicle load capacity is exceeded
– When towing a trailer or other ve- hicle
• Excessive noise will interfere with the warning chime sound, and the
beep may not be heard.
• For the ProPILOT Assist system to operate properly, the windshield in
front of the camera must be clean.
Replace worn wiper blades. The cor-
rect size wiper blades must be used
to help make sure the windshield is
kept clean. Only use Genuine NISSAN
wiper blades, or equivalent wiper
blades, that are specifically de-
signed for use on your vehicle model
and model year. It is recommended
that you visit a NISSAN certified LEAF
dealer for the correct parts for your
vehicle.

5-106Starting and driving

WARNING
• In the conventional (fixed speed) cruise control mode, a warning
chime does not sound to warn you if
you are too close to the vehicle
ahead, as neither the presence of
the vehicle ahead nor the vehicle-to-
vehicle distance is detected.
• Pay special attention to the distance between your vehicle and the ve-
hicle ahead of you or a collision
could occur.
• Always confirm the setting in the ICC system display.
• Do not use the conventional (fixed speed) cruise control mode when
driving under the following condi-
tions:
– When it is not possible to keep thevehicle at a set speed
– In heavy traffic or in traffic that varies in speed
– On winding or hilly roads
– On slippery roads (rain, snow, ice, etc.)
– In very windy areas
• Doing so could cause a loss of ve- hicle control and result in an acci-
dent.
