WARNING
Steering Assist is not a system for
hands-free driving. Always keep your
hands on the steering wheel and drive
your vehicle safely. Failure to do so
could cause a collision resulting in se-
rious personal injury or death.
NOTE:
If the driver lightly touches (instead of
firmly grips) the steering wheel, the
steering torque sensor may not detect
the driver’s hand(s) on the wheel and a
sequence of warnings may occur.
When the driver holds and operates
the steering wheel again, the warn-
ings turn off.
Steering Assist limitations
WARNING
• In the following situations, the cam- era may not detect lane markers
correctly or may detect lane mark-
ers incorrectly and the Steering As-
sist may not operate properly:
– When driving on roads wherethere are multiple parallel lane
markers, lane markers that are
faded or not painted clearly, non-
standard lane markers, or lane
markers covered with water, dirt,
snow, etc.
– When driving on roads with dis- continued lane markers
– When driving on roads with a wid- ening or narrowing lane width
– When driving on roads where there are multiple lanes or unclear
lane markers due to road con-
struction
– When driving on roads where there are sharply contrasting ob-
jects, such as shadows, snow,
water, wheel ruts, seams, or lines
remaining af ter road repairs (the Steering Assist could detect these
items as lane markers)
– When driving on roads where the traveling lane merges or sepa-
rates
• Do not use the Steering Assist under the following conditions because
the system may not properly detect
lane markers. Doing so could cause a
loss of vehicle control and result in
an accident.
– During bad weather (rain, fog,snow, dust, etc.)
– When rain, snow, sand, etc., is thrown up by the wheels of other
vehicles
– When dirt, oil, ice, snow, water, or another object adheres to the
camera unit
– When the lens of the camera unit is foggy
– When strong light (for example, sunlight or high beams from on-
coming vehicles) shines on the
camera
– When the headlights are not bright due to dirt on the lens or
the headlights are off in tunnels or
in darkness

AEB WITH PEDESTRIAN
DETECTION SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limita-
tions for the AEB with Pedestrian De-
tection system. Failure to operate the
vehicle in accordance with these sys-
tem limitations could result in serious
injury or death.
• The AEB with Pedestrian Detection system cannot detect all vehicles or
pedestrians under all conditions.
• The AEB with Pedestrian Detection system does not detect the follow-
ing objects:
–
Small pedestrians (including small
children), animals and cyclists.
– Pedestrians in wheelchairs or us-ing mobile transport such as
scooters, child-operated toys, or
skateboards.
– Pedestrians who are seated or otherwise not in a full upright
standing or walking position.
– Oncoming vehicles
– Crossing vehicles
– Obstacles on the roadside • The AEB with Pedestrian Detection
system has some performance limi-
tations.
– If a stationary vehicle is in the ve-hicle’s path, the AEB with Pedes-
trian Detection system will not
function when the vehicle is
driven at speeds over approxi-
mately 50 mph (80 km/h).
– For pedestrian detection, the AEB with Pedestrian Detection system
will not function when the vehicle
is driven at speeds over approxi-
mately 37 mph (60 km/h) or below
approximately 6 mph (10 km/h).
• The AEB with Pedestrian Detection system will not function for pedes-
trians in darkness or in tunnels, even
if there is street lighting in the area.
• The AEB with Pedestrian Detection system may not function if the ve-
hicle ahead is narrow (for example, a
motorcycle).
• The AEB with Pedestrian Detection system may not function if speed
difference between the two vehicles
is too small. • The radar sensor AEB with Pedes-
trian Detection system may not
function properly or detect a vehicle
ahead in the following conditions:
– Poor visibility (conditions such asrain, snow, fog, dust storms, sand-
storms, and road spray from other
vehicles)
– Driving on a steep downhill slope or roads with sharp curves.
– Driving on a bumpy road surface, such as an uneven dirt road.
– If dirt, ice, snow or other material is covering the radar sensor area.
–
Interference by other radar sources.– The camera area of windshield is fogged up, or covered with dirt,
water drops, ice, snow, etc.
– Strong light (for example, sunlight or high beams from oncoming ve-
hicles) enters the front camera.
Strong light causes the area
around the pedestrian to be cast
in a shadow, making it difficult to
see.
– A sudden change in brightness occurs (for example, when the ve-
hicle enters or exits a tunnel or a
shaded area or lightning flashes).

Replacing the halogen headlight
bulb (if so equipped)
The headlight is a semi-sealed beam type
that uses a headlight (halogen) bulb. If bulb
replacement is required, it is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer.
CAUTION
• Do not leave the bulb out of the headlight reflector for a long period
of time. Dust, moisture, smoke, etc.
entering the headlight body may af-
fect bulb performance
• High-pressure halogen gas is sealed inside the halogen bulb. The bulb
may break if the glass envelope is
scratched or the bulb is dropped.
• Only touch the base when handling the bulb. Never touch the glass en-
velope. Touching the glass envelope
could significantly affect bulb life
and/or headlight performance. • Aiming is not necessary af ter re-
placing the bulb. When aiming ad-
justment is necessary, it is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer for this service.
• Fog may temporarily form inside the lens of the exterior lights in the rain
or in a car wash. A temperature dif-
ference between the inside and the
outside of the lens causes the fog. If
large drops of water collect inside
the lens, it is recommended that you
visit a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.
Use the same number and wattage as
originally installed as shown in the chart.
FOG LIGHTS (IF SO EQUIPPED)
For additional information on fog light bulb
replacement, refer to the instruction out-
lined in this section
Replacing the fog light bulb
If fog light bulb replacement is required, it is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN cer-
tified LEAF dealer for this service.
