Your NISSAN is equipped with the
Bluetooth® Hands-Free Phone System. If
you have a compatible Bluetooth® enabled
cellular phone, you can set up the wireless
connection between your cellular phone
and the in-vehicle phone module. With
Bluetooth® wireless technology, you can
make or receive a hands-free telephone
call with your cellular phone in the vehicle.
Once your cellular phone is connected to
the in-vehicle phone module, no other
phone connecting procedure is required.
Your phone is automatically connected
with the in-vehicle phone module whenthe power switch is placed in the ON posi-
tion with the previously connected cellular
phone turned on and carried in the vehicle.
NOTE:
Some devices require the user to accept
specific connections for certain features
(such as phonebook download). If your
phone does not connect automatically to
the system, consult the phone’s Owner’s
Manual for details on device operation.
You can connect up to five different
Bluetooth® cellular phones to the in-
vehicle phone module. However, you can
talk on only one cellular phone at a time.Before using the Bluetooth® Hands-Free
Phone System, refer to the following notes:
• Set up the wireless connection between a
compatible cellular phone and the in-
vehicle phone module before using the
hands-free phone system.
•
Some Bluetooth® enabled cellular phones
may not be recognized or work properly.
Please visit www.nissanusa.com/bluetooth
or www.nissan.ca/bluetooth for a recom-
mended phone list and connecting
instructions.
• You will not be able to use a hands-free phone under the following conditions: – Your vehicle is outside of the cellularservice area.
– Your vehicle is in an area where it is difficult to receive a cellular signal; such
as in a tunnel, in an underground park-
ing garage, near a tall building or in a
mountainous area.
– Your cellular phone is locked to prevent it from being dialed.
• When the radio wave condition is not ideal or ambient sound is too loud, it may be
difficult to hear the other person’s voice
during a call.

• When replacing a wheel without theTPMS such as the spare tire, the
TPMS will not function and the low
tire pressure warning light will flash
for approximately 1 minute. The light
will remain on af ter 1 minute. Have
your tires replaced and/or TPMS
system reset as soon as possible. It
is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN certified LEAF dealer for this
service.
• Replacing tires with those not origi- nally specified by NISSAN could af-
fect the proper operation of the
TPMS.
• Do not inject any tire liquid or aero- sol tire sealant into the tires, as this
may cause a malfunction of the tire
pressure sensors.
CAUTION
• The TPMS may not function properly when the wheels are equipped with
tire chains or the wheels are buried
in snow. • Do not place metalized film or any
metal parts (antenna, etc.) on the
windows. This may cause poor re-
ception of the signals from the tire
pressure sensors, and the TPMS will
not function properly.
Some devices and transmitters may tem-
porarily interfere with the operation of the
TPMS and cause the low tire pressure
warning light to illuminate. Some examples
are:
•
Facilities or electric devices using similar ra-
dio frequencies that are near the vehicle.
• If a transmitter set to similar frequencies is being used in or near the vehicle.
• If a computer (or similar equipment) or a DC/AC converter is being used in or near
the vehicle.
The low tire pressure warning light may
illuminate in the following cases:
• If the vehicle is equipped with a wheel and tire without TPMS.
• If the TPMS has been replaced and the ID has not been registered.
• If the wheel is not originally specified by NISSAN. FCC Notice:

1. Remain calm and do not overreact.
2. Maintain a firm grip on the steeringwheel with both hands and try to hold a
straight course.

emergency” section of this manual.
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.

Malfunction
If the BSW system malfunctions, it will turn
off automatically. The BSW indicator will
blink (yellow) in the vehicle information dis-
play. The indicator next to “Blind spot” in the
“Driving Aids” menu will also blink (yellow).

you visit a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer for
this service.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
The two radar sensors1for the BSW and
RCTA systems are located near the rear
bumper. Always keep the area near the ra-
dar sensors clean.
The radar sensors may be blocked by tem-
porary ambient conditions such as splash-
ing water, mist or fog.
The blocked condition may also be caused
by objects such as ice, frost or dirt ob-
structing the radar sensors. Check for and remove objects obstructing
the area around the radar sensors.
Do not attach stickers (including transpar-
ent material), install accessories or apply
additional paint near the radar sensors.
Do not strike or damage the area around
the radar sensors. It is recommended that
you visit a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer if
the area around the radar sensors is dam-
aged due to a collision.

• When it is not possible to keep the vehicle at a set speed
• In heavy traffic or in traffic that var- ies 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 vehicle
control and result in an accident.
CRUISE CONTROL OPERATIONS
The cruise control allows driving at a speed
between 25 to 90 mph (40 to 144 km/h)
without keeping your foot on the accelera-
tor pedal.
To turn on the cruise control, push the
cruise control switch on. The cruise
indicator in the vehicle information display
will illuminate.
To set the cruising speed, accelerate the
vehicle to the preferred speed, push the
SET- switch and release it. Take your foot off
the accelerator pedal. The vehicle will
maintain the set speed.
• To pass another vehicle, depress the ac-
celerator pedal. When you release the
pedal, the vehicle will return to the previ-
ously set speed.
• The vehicle may not maintain the set speed on winding or hilly roads. If this hap-
pens, drive without using the cruise
control.
