10-6Technical and consumer information

Towing your vehicle with all four wheels on
the ground is sometimes called flat towing.
This method is typically used when towing
a vehicle behind a recreational vehicle,
such as a motor home.
CAUTION
• Failure to follow these guidelines can
result in severe reduction gear
damage.
• DO NOT tow this vehicle with all four
wheels on the ground (flat towing).
• For emergency towing procedures
see “Towing your vehicle” (P. 6-13).
NOTE:
If the Li-ion battery becomes completely
discharged:
• The vehicle is automatically placed in the ON position and it will not be pos-
sible to switch to the READY to drive
position.
• The vehicle is automatically switched to the N (Neutral) position and it will not
be possible to drive the vehicle.
For additional information, see “If the Li-
ion battery becomes completely dis-
charged” (P. 6-12). DOT (Department Of Transportation) Qual-
ity Grades: All passenger car tires must
conform to federal safety requirements in
addition to these grades.
Quality grades can be found where appli-
cable on the tire sidewall between tread
shoulder and maximum section width.
For example:
Treadwear 200 Traction AA Temperature A
TREADWEAR
The treadwear grade is a comparative rat-
ing based on the wear rate of the tire when
tested under controlled conditions on a
specified government test course. For ex-
ample, a tire graded 150 would wear one
and one-half (1 1/2) times as well on the
government course as a tire graded 100.
The relative performance of tires depends
upon actual conditions of their use how-
ever, and may depart significantly from the
norm due to variations in driving habits,
service practices and differences in road
characteristics and climate.
TRACTION AA, A, B AND C
The traction grades, from highest to low-
est, are AA, A, B and C. Those grades repre-
sent the tire’s ability to stop on wet pave-
ment as measured under controlledconditions on specified government test
surfaces of asphalt and concrete. A tire
marked C may have poor traction
performance.
WARNING
The traction grade assigned to this tire
is based on straight-ahead braking
traction tests, and does not include ac-
celeration, cornering, hydroplaning, or
peak traction characteristics.
TEMPERATURE A, B AND C
The temperature grades A (the highest), B,
and C, representing the tire’s resistance to
the generation of heat and its ability to dis-
sipate heat when tested under controlled
conditions on a specified indoor laboratory
test wheel. Sustained high temperature
can cause the material of the tire to degen-
erate and reduce tire life, and excessive
temperature can lead to sudden tire failure.
The grade C corresponds to a level of per-
formance which all passenger car tires
must meet under the Federal Motor Safety
Standard No. 109. Grades B and A represent
higher levels of performance on the labo-
ratory test wheel than the minimum re-
quired by law.

fleet vehicle; your rental company, if your

State and provincial laws allow access and
use of data recorded by vehicle devices
with the consent of the vehicle owner or
pursuant to subscription agreement. While
you are not required to allow such access
and use, if you do not so agree NISSAN may
be unable under applicable law to activate
the vehicle telematics system in your ve-
hicle, and certain features of your vehicle
which are dependent on vehicle telematics
will not operate as intended or designed.
These may include features such as auto-
matic charging station map updates, re-
mote battery state of charge check, charg-
ing complete notice, remote plug in
reminder, remote charging on, remote cli-mate control on, drive route planning, driv-
ing tips to improve range, driving history,
billing simulation, ECO ranking, ECO forest,
maintenance reminders, etc. Other fea-
tures that may be developed and offered
by NISSAN in the future may also not func-
tion without telematics data transmission.
NissanConnect® EV with Services powered

suant to a subscription services agree-
ment covering your vehicle. This agree-
ment is necessary for all owners. This
agreement, and an explanation of its terms
and conditions, can be found at the NISSAN
Owner’s Portal webpage. Further, the op-
erator of the vehicle must also touch [OK]
on the Navi screen to indicate assent each
time he or she starts the car. If you decide
at any time that you do not want your ve-
hicle to transmit data to NISSAN, you can
deactivate the telematics account associ-
ated with this vehicle by canceling the sub-
scription services agreement by visiting
the NISSAN Owner’s Portal Webpage or
calling NISSAN at 1-877-NOGASEV (1-877-
664-2738). The service can be reactivated
later upon request if you choose. Simply
visit the same website or call the number
above. Alternatively, you can turn off the
transmission of certain categories of data
through the use of settings found in thenavigation system under Menu,
NissanConnect® EV with Services powered

with NISSAN. Note, turning off “Vehicle Infor-
mation Sharing with NISSAN” will only dis-
able the automatic sharing of information
at vehicle start-up. Certain categories of
data may still be transmitted if vehicle tele-
matics features are accessed either in the
vehicle or remotely.
Your agreement to the transmission and
use of data by NISSAN can be provided in
various ways. The vehicle is equipped with
a “pop up” screen on the vehicle navigation
system that will ask for your consent to this
data transfer. A version of the following
message will appear: “Pursuant to sub-
scription agreement, your vehicle wire-
lessly transmits recorded vehicle data to
NISSAN for various purposes, including
