• Operating the Climate Ctrl. Timer or re- mote climate control in an environment
where the temperature is low may de-
crease the rate of battery charge.
• Timer setting can also be changed while Climate Ctrl. Timer is operated. When the
power position is switched to OFF, the air
conditioner starts or enters waiting mode
depending on the new timer settings.
• When the difference in temperature be- tween the air conditioner setting tem-
perature and the temperature outside the
vehicle is large, the temperature inside the
vehicle may not be maintained at the set-
ting temperature.

Operating tips
To get the best performance out of the
NISSAN Voice Recognition system, observe
the following:
• Keep the interior of the vehicle as quiet aspossible. Point all vents away from the
microphone area and close the windows
to eliminate surrounding noises (traffic
noises, vibration sounds, etc.), which may
prevent the system from recognizing
voice commands correctly.
• Wait until the tone sounds before speak- ing a command. Otherwise, the com-
mand will not be received properly.
• Start speaking a command within 5 sec- onds af ter the tone sounds.
• Speak in a natural voice without pausing between words.
Giving voice commands
To operate NISSAN Voice Recognition,
press and release the
button located
on the steering wheel. Af ter the tone
sounds, speak a command. The command given is picked up by the
microphone, and voice feedback is given
when the command is accepted.
• If you need to hear the available com-
mands for the current menu again, say
“Help” and the system will repeat them.
• If a command is not recognized, the sys- tem announces, “Command not recog-
nized. Please try again.” Make sure the
command is said exactly as prompted by
the system and repeat the command in a
clear voice.
• If you want to go back to the previous command, you can say “Go back” or “Cor-
rection” any time the system is waiting for
a response.
• You can cancel a command when the sys- tem is waiting for a response by saying,
“Cancel” or “Quit.” The system announces
“Cancel” or “Quit” and ends the Voice Rec-
ognition session. You can also press and
hold thebutton on the steering
wheel for 5 seconds at any time to end the
Voice Recognition session. Whenever the
Voice Recognition session is canceled, a
double beep is played to indicate you have
exited the system. • If you want to adjust the volume of the
voice feedback, press the volume control
switches (+ or -) on the steering wheel
while being provided with feedback. You
can also use the radio volume control
knob.
Voice Prompt Interrupt
In most cases you can interrupt the voice
feedback to speak the next command by
pressing the
button on the steering
wheel. Af ter interrupting the system, wait
for a beep before speaking your command.
One Shot Call
To use the system faster, you may speak
the second level commands with the main
menu command on the main menu. For
example, press the
button and af ter
the tone say “Call Redial”.

Seat belts help reduce the risk of injury in
collisions and rollovers.In a rollover crash,
an unbelted or improperly belted person
is significantly more likely to be injured
or killed than a person properly wearing
a seat belt.
OFF-ROAD RECOVERY
While driving, the right side or lef t side
wheels may unintentionally leave the road
surface. If this occurs, maintain control of
the vehicle by following the procedure be-
low. Please note that this procedure is only
a general guide. The vehicle must be driven
as appropriate based on the conditions of
the vehicle, road and traffic.
1. Remain calm and do not overreact.
2. Do not apply the brakes.
3. Maintain a firm grip on the steering wheel with both hands and try to hold a
straight course.
4. When appropriate, slowly release the ac- celerator pedal to gradually slow the
vehicle. 5. If there is nothing in the way, steer the
vehicle to follow the road while the ve-
hicle speed is reduced. Do not attempt
to drive the vehicle back onto the road
surface until the vehicle speed is
reduced.
6. When it is safe to do so, gradually turn the steering wheel until both tires return
to the road surface. When all tires are on
the road surface, steer the vehicle to
stay in the appropriate driving lane.
• If you decide that it is not safe to return the vehicle to the road surface based
on vehicle, road or traffic conditions,
gradually slow the vehicle to a stop in a
safe place off the road.
RAPID AIR PRESSURE LOSS
Rapid air pressure loss or a “blow-out” can
occur if the tire is punctured or is damaged
due to hitting a curb or pothole. Rapid air
pressure loss can also be caused by driving
on under-inflated tires.
Rapid air pressure loss can affect the han-
dling and stability of the vehicle, especially
at highway speeds. Help prevent rapid air pressure loss by
maintaining the correct air pressure and
visually inspecting the tires for wear and
damage. For additional information, refer
to “Wheels and tires” in the “Maintenance
and do-it-yourself ” section of this manual.
If a tire rapidly loses air pressure or “blows-
out” while driving, maintain control of the
vehicle by following the procedure below.
Please note that this procedure is only a
general guide. The vehicle must be driven
as appropriate based on the conditions of
the vehicle, road and traffic.
WARNING
The following actions can increase the
chance of losing control of the vehicle
if there is a sudden loss of tire air pres-
sure. Losing control of the vehicle may
cause a collision and result in personal
injury.
• The vehicle generally moves or pulls in the direction of the flat tire.
• Do not rapidly apply the brakes.
• Do not rapidly release the accelera- tor pedal.
• Do not rapidly turn the steering wheel.

DRINKING ALCOHOL/DRUGS AND
DRIVING
WARNING
Never drive under the influence of al-
cohol or drugs. Alcohol in the blood-
stream reduces coordination, delays
reaction time and impairs judgement. Driving af ter drinking alcohol in-
creases the likelihood of being in-
volved in an accident injuring yourself
and others. Additionally, if you are in-
jured in an accident, alcohol can in-
crease the severity of the injury.
NISSAN is committed to safe driving. How-
ever, you must choose not to drive under
the influence of alcohol. Every year thou-
sands of people are injured or killed in
alcohol-related accidents. Although the lo-
cal laws vary on what is considered to be
legally intoxicated, the fact is that alcohol
affects all people differently and most
people underestimate the effects of alco-
hol.
Remember, drinking and driving don’t mix!
That is true for drugs, too (over-the-
counter, prescription, and illegal drugs).
Do not drive if your ability to operate your
vehicle is impaired by alcohol, drugs, or
some other physical condition.
WARNING
• Do not operate the power switch while driving the vehicle except in an
emergency. (The EV system shuts
down when the power switch is
pushed three consecutive times or
the power switch is pushed and held
for more than 2 seconds.) If the EV
system stops while the vehicle is be-
ing driven, this could lead to a crash
and serious injury.
• When turning off the power switch, make sure to shif t the shif t lever to
the P (Park) position even if the ve-
hicle is maintaining a stop and hold
using the e-pedal. This will prevent
the vehicle from moving or rolling
unexpectedly, which could result in
serious personal injury or property
damage.
Before operating the power switch, make
sure the vehicle is in the P (Park) position.

LDW SYSTEM OPERATION
The LDW system provides a lane departure
warning function when the vehicle is driven
at speeds of approximately 37 mph
(60 km/h) and above and the lane mark-
ings are clear. When the vehicle ap-
proaches either the lef t or the right side of
the traveling lane, the steering wheel will
vibrate and the LDW indicator in the vehicle
information display will blink to alert the
driver.
The warning function will stop when the
vehicle returns inside of the lane markers.
Starting and driving5-27

• Do not place reflective materials, such aswhite paper or a mirror, on the instrument
panel. The reflection of sunlight may ad-
versely affect the camera unit’s capability
of detecting the lane markers.
• Do not strike or damage the areas around the camera unit. Do not touch the camera
lens or remove the screw located on the
camera unit. If the camera unit is dam-
aged due to an accident, it is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer.
WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and in-
structions for proper use of the I-LI
system could result in serious injury or
death.
• The I-LI system will not steer the ve- hicle or prevent loss of control. It is
the driver’s responsibility to stay
alert, drive safely, keep the vehicle in
the traveling lane, and be in control
of the vehicle at all times. • The I-LI system is primarily intended
for use on well-developed freeways
or highways. It may not detect the
lane markers in certain road,
weather, or driving conditions.
The I-LI system must be turned on with the
ProPILOT Assist switch on the steering
wheel every time the power switch is
placed in the ON position.
The I-LI system will operate when the ve-
hicle is driven at speeds of approximately
37 mph (60 km/h) and above, and only
when the lane markings are clearly visible
on the road.
The I-LI system warns the driver when the
vehicle has lef t the center of the traveling
lane with an indicator in the vehicle infor-
mation display and a steering vibration.
The system helps assist the driver to return
the vehicle to the center of the traveling
lane by applying the brakes to the lef t or
right wheels individually (for a short period
of time).
The I-LI system monitors the lane markers
on the traveling lane using the camera unit
Alocated above the inside mirror.
