RANGE
The distance you can drive the vehicle
(range) varies considerably depending
upon available charge, weather, tempera-
ture, usage, battery age, topography, and
driving style.
Refer to the Monroney label (window sticker)
for the official EPA range. Your actual range
will vary and could be significantly less, either
initially or as the battery ages and with use
over time. For additional information, refer to
“Improve driving range” in this section for in-
formation on the factors that affect vehicle
range and how to use the vehicle to maxi-
mize vehicle range.
IMPROVE DRIVING RANGE
Vehicle range depends on a number of fac-
tors.
Actual vehicle range will vary depending
upon:
• Speed,
• Vehicle load,
• Electrical load from vehicle accessories,
• Traffic and road conditions,• Distance driven without stopping,
• Usage,
• Driving style,
• Battery age,
• Weather or temperature,
• Topography,
• Charging habits.
• Speed,
• Vehicle load,
• Electrical load from vehicle accessories,
• Traffic and road conditions.
NISSAN recommends the following driv-
ing habits to help maximize vehicle range:
Before driving:
• Follow recommended periodic main-
tenance.
• Keep tires inflated to correct pressure.
• Keep wheels in correct alignment.
• Pre-heat or pre-cool the interior cabin while the vehicle is charging.
• Remove unnecessary cargo from the vehicle. While driving:
• Drive in ECO mode
– The ECO mode helps reduce powerconsumption by reducing acceleration
when compared to the same accelera-
tor pedal position in the D (Drive) posi-
tion (normal mode).
• Drive at a constant speed. Maintain cruis- ing speeds with constant accelerator po-
sitions or by using cruise control when
appropriate.
• Accelerate slowly and smoothly. Gently press and release the accelerator pedal
for acceleration and deceleration.
• Drive at moderate speeds on the highway.
• Avoid extending highway driving with multiple quick charges.
• Avoid frequent stopping and braking. Maintain a safe distance behind other
vehicles.
• Turn off the air conditioner/heater when it is not necessary.
• Select a moderate temperature setting for heating or cooling to help reduce
power consumption.
EFFICIENT USE OF YOUR VEHICLE
EV OverviewEV-23

• Use the air conditioner/heater and closewindows to reduce drag when cruising at
highway speed.
• Vehicle range may be substantially re- duced in extremely cold conditions (for ex-
ample, -4°F (-20°C)).
• Using the climate control system to heat the cabin when the outside temperature
is below 32°F (0°C) uses more electricity
and affects vehicle range more than when
using the heater when the temperature is
above 32°F (0°C).
• When it is cold, use the steering wheel heater in substitution for the heater/air
conditioner. The steering wheel heater
consumes less power than the heater/air
conditioner.
• Release the accelerator pedal to slow down and do not apply the brakes when
traffic and road conditions allow. – This vehicle is equipped with a regen-erative brake system. The primary pur-
pose of the regenerative brake system
is to provide some power to recharge
the Li-ion battery and extend driving
range. A secondary benefit is “engine
braking” that operates based on Li-ion battery conditions. In the D (Drive) posi-
tion, when the accelerator is released,
the regenerative brake system pro-
vides some deceleration and some
power to the Li-ion battery.
LI-ION BATTERY LIFE
The Li-ion battery's ability to hold a charge,
like all batteries, decreases with battery
age and usage which results in decreased
vehicle range when compared to the ve-
hicle range when the vehicle was new. This
is normal and expected, and does not indi-
cate a malfunction of the vehicle or Li-ion
battery.
The Li-ion battery's ability to hold a charge
can be affected by how you drive the ve-
hicle, store the vehicle, how you charge the
Li-ion battery and Li-ion battery tempera-
ture during vehicle operation and charging.
To maximize the battery's useful life, use
the following driving and charging habits
where possible:
• Avoid exposing a vehicle to extreme am-
bient temperatures for extended periods. • Avoid storing a vehicle in temperatures
below −13°F (−25°C) for more than seven
days.
• Avoid leaving your vehicle for more than 14 days where the Li-ion battery available
charge gauge reaches a zero or near zero
(state of charge).
• Allow the vehicle and Li-ion battery to cool down af ter use before charging.
• Park/store your vehicle in cool locations out of direct sunlight and away from heat
sources.
• Avoid sustained high battery tempera- tures (caused, for example, by exposure to
very high ambient temperatures or ex-
tending highway driving with multiple
quick charges [if so equipped]) .
• Use the normal charging or trickle charg- ing methods to charge the Li-ion battery
and minimize the use of public Fast
Charge or Quick Charger.
• Moderate driving.
• Use of ECO mode.
EV-24EV Overview

WARNING
• Never let children ride unrestrained or extend their hands or face out of
the window. Do not attempt to hold
them in your lap or arms. Some ex-
amples of dangerous riding posi-
tions are shown in the illustrations.
• Children may be severely injured or killed when the front air bags, side
air bags or curtain air bags inflate if
they are not properly restrained.
Pre-teens and children should be
properly restrained in the rear seat,
if possible.
• Even with the NISSAN Advanced Air Bag System, never install a rear-
facing child restraint on the front
seat. An inflating front air bag could
seriously injure or kill your child. For
additional information, refer to
“Child restraints” in this section.

Do not lean against doors or windows.
Safety–Seats, seat belts and supplemental restraint system1-47

WARNING
Front seat-mounted side-impact
supplemental air bags and roof-
mounted curtain side-impact and roll-
over supplemental air bags:
• The side air bags and curtain air bags ordinarily will not inflate in the
event of a frontal impact, rear im-
pact, or lower severity side collision.
Always wear your seat belts to help
reduce the risk or severity of injury in
various kinds of accidents.
• The seat belts, the side air bags and curtain air bags are most effective
when you are sitting well back and
upright in the seat. The side air bag
and curtain air bag inflate with great
force. Do not allow anyone to place
their hand, leg or face near the side
air bag on the side of the seatback of
the front seat or near the side roof
rails. Do not allow anyone sitting in
the front seats or rear outboard
seats to extend their hand out of the
window or lean against the door.
Some examples of dangerous riding
positions are shown in the previous
illustrations. • When sitting in the rear seat, do not
hold onto the seatback of the front
seat. If the side air bag inflates, you
may be seriously injured. Be espe-
cially careful with children, who
should always be properly re-
strained. Some examples of danger-
ous riding positions are shown in the
illustrations.
• Do not use seat covers on the front seatbacks. They may interfere with
side air bag inflation.
