Plug-in indicator light
This light illuminates when the charge connector
is connected to the vehicle and blinks during
charging.
NOTE:
If the charge connector is connected to the
vehicle, the power switch can not be placed
in the READY to drive position.
Power limitation indicator light
When the power limitation indicator light is illu-
minated, the power provided to the traction motor
is reduced. Therefore the vehicle is not as re-
sponsive when the accelerator is depressed
while the power limitation light is illuminated.
When this light comes on, the warning display
appears on the center display and the vehicle
information display. Follow the instructions pro-
vided on the center display.
This light illuminates in the following conditions.
• Li-ion battery available charge is extremely low
• Li-ion battery temperature is very low (approxi-
mately −4°F (−20°C)
•
When the temperature of the EV system is high
(motor, inverter, coolant system, Li-ion battery etc.)
• When the EV system has a malfunction.
If the low battery charge warning light is illuminated,
charge the Li-ion battery as soon as possible.
If this indicator illuminates because the Li-ion
battery is cold due to low outside temperatures,
move the vehicle to a warmer location. The Li-ion
battery temperature may be increased by charg-
ing the Li-ion battery.
If the light illuminates when the EV system be-
comes hot due to continuous hill climbing, either
continue driving at a slower safe speed or stop the
vehicle in a safe location. If this indicator does not
turn off, contact a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.
The indicator illuminates when a part in the EV
system has malfunctioned. If the indicator illumi-
nates in a situation other than those described
above, or if it does not turn off, there may be a
system malfunction. Contact a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer.
WARNING
Power limitation mode can result in re-
duced power and vehicle speed. The re-
duced speed may be lower than other
traffic, which could increase the chance
of a collision. Be especially careful when
driving. If the vehicle cannot maintain a
safe driving speed, pull to the side of the
road in a safe area. Charge the Li-ion
battery if the charge is low or allow the
Li-ion battery to cool.
READY to drive indicator light
The READY to drive indicator light illuminates
when the EV System is powered and the vehicle
may be driven.
The READY to drive indicator light will turn off in
the following conditions.
• Certain EV system malfunctions.
• The READY to drive indicator light turns off
immediately before the Li-ion battery is com-
pletely discharged. If the Li-ion battery be-
comes completely discharged, the vehicle must
be charged in order to be driven. For additional
information, refer to “Low battery charge warn-
ing light” in this section.
Security indicator light
This light blinks when the power switch is in the
ACC, OFF or LOCK position. This function indi-
cates the security system equipped on the ve-
hicle is operational.
