DRIVING RANGE
The driving rangeO1provides an esti-
mated distance that the vehicle can be
driven before recharging is necessary. The
driving range is constantly being calcu-
lated, based on the amount of available
Li-ion battery charge and the actual power
consumption average.
NOTE:
• The driving range display will flash when the low battery charge indicator
illuminates. Additionally, if you con-
tinue to drive the vehicle in this state
and the Li-ion battery is close to being
completely discharged, “---” will be
displayed. Charge the Li-ion battery as
soon as possible. When the Li-ion bat-
tery is charged, the original display will
be restored.
• Af ter the vehicle is charged, the dis- played driving range is calculated
based on the actual average energy
consumption of the previous driving.
The displayed driving range will vary
every time the vehicle is fully charged.
• The driving range increases or de- creases when the air conditioner,
heater or Li-ion battery warmer (if so
equipped) is turned on or off, or when
the ECO mode is selected, or when any
other accessory is turned on or off
based on driving (for models with
40kWh battery).

WARNING
• Radio waves could adversely affect
electric medical equipment. Those
who use a pacemaker should contact
the electric medical equipment
manufacturer for the possible influ-
ences before use.
• The Intelligent Key transmits radio
waves when the buttons are pressed.
The FAA advises that the radio waves
may affect aircraf t navigation and
communication systems. Do not op-
erate the Intelligent Key while on an
airplane. Make sure the buttons are
not operated unintentionally when
the unit is stored during a flight.
The Intelligent Key system can operate all
the door and the rear hatch locks by using
the remote control function or pushing the
request switch on the vehicle without tak-
ing the key out from a pocket or purse. The
operating environment and/or conditions
may affect the Intelligent Key system op-
eration.
Be sure to read the following items before
using the Intelligent Key system.CAUTION
• Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key
with you when operating the vehicle.
• Never leave the Intelligent Key in the
vehicle when you leave the vehicle.
The Intelligent Key is always communicat-
ing with the vehicle because it receives ra-
dio waves. The Intelligent Key system
transmits weak radio waves. Environmen-
tal conditions may interfere with the op-
eration of the Intelligent Key system under
the following operating conditions.
• When operating near a location where strong radio waves are transmitted, such
as a TV tower, power station or broad-
casting station.
• When in possession of wireless equip- ment, such as a cellular phone, trans-
ceiver or a CB radio.
• When the Intelligent Key is in contact with or covered by metallic materials.
• When any type of radio wave remote con- trol is used nearby.
• When the Intelligent Key is placed near an electric appliance such as a personal
computer.
• When the vehicle is parked near a parking meter. In such cases, correct the operating condi-
tions before using the Intelligent Key func-
tion or use the mechanical key.
Although the life of the battery varies de-
pending on the operating conditions, the
battery’s life is approximately two years. If
the battery is discharged, replace it with a
new one.
When the Intelligent Key battery is almost
discharged, firmly apply the foot brake and
touch the power switch with the Intelligent
Key. Then push the power switch while de-
pressing the brake pedal within 10 seconds
af ter the chime sound.
Since the Intelligent Key is continuously re-
ceiving radio waves, if the key is lef t near
equipment that transmits strong radio
waves, such as signals from a TV or per-
sonal computer, the battery life may be-
come shorter.
For additional information, refer to “NISSAN
Intelligent Key® battery replacement” in the
“Maintenance and do-it-yourself ” section
of this manual.
Pay special attention that the vehicle bat-
tery is not completely discharged.
As many as four Intelligent Keys can be
registered and used with one vehicle. For
