SPEEDOMETER AND ODOMETER

The vehicle is equipped with a speedom-

eter and odometer. The speedometer is

located on the right side of the vehicle in-

formation display. The odometer is located

within the vehicle information display.

The speedometer indicates the vehicle

speed.

The odometer and twin trip odometer

are displayed on the vehicle information

display when the power switch is in the ON

or READY to drive position.

The odometer records the total distance

the vehicle has been driven.

The twin trip odometer records the dis-

tance of individual trips.

2-6 Instruments and controls

Changing the display:

NOTE:

• If the display indicates that the tem-

perature of the Li-ion battery is near

the red zone end of the normal range,

reduce vehicle speed to decrease the

temperature. If the indicator is over the

normal range, the power provided to

the traction motor is reduced when the

power limitation indicator light is illu-

minated. Therefore, the vehicle is not

as responsive when the accelerator is

depressed while the power limitation

light is illuminated. For additional in-

formation, refer to “Power limitation

indicator light” in this section.

Pushing the TRIP RESET switch

on the left side of the instrument panel

changes the display as follows:

Odometer → TRIP A → TRIP B → Odometer

For additional information about the ve-

hicle information display, refer to “Vehicle

information display” in this section.

Resetting the trip odometer:

• If the outside temperature is extremely

low, the Li-ion temperature gauge may

not display a temperature reading. The

vehicle may not be able to be put in the

READY to drive mode. Have the system

checked. It is recommended that you

visit a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer for

this service.

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.

• After 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.

While charging (quick charge

[if so equipped])

• The electrical power for the normal

charging is displayed at a fixed value.

Therefore, the displayed electrical

power may differ from the one that is

actually supplied.

• When the currently remaining Li-ion bat-

tery level exceeds each percentage level,

the charging time will be displayed as

[---].

The displayed charging time is calculated

based on the electrical (supplied to the

charger), which is selected in the [Charge

Time Screen] setting under the EV Settings

menu. The display shows:

• When the Li-ion battery was fully charge,

all the charging time information will be

displayed as [---].

• For the quick charging, the electrical

power display will change to the actual

electrical power while charging. If the

charging is stopped or the power sup-

ply is stopped (unplugged, etc.), the

• The displayed charging time on each

percentage level is the current estima-

vary depending on the conditions of

the vehicle or the state of charge.

• Right after starting of stopping

may differ from the actual charging

time. The actual charging time will be

displayed after a period of time.

CLOCK

ECO MODE INDICATOR

E-PEDAL SYSTEM INDICATOR

Adjust the clock on the setting screen of

the vehicle information display. For addi-

tional information, refer to “Settings” in this

section. If the power supply (12-volt battery)

is disconnected, the clock will not indicate

the correct time. Readjust the time.

The ECO mode indicator illuminates in the

vehicle information display when the ECO

mode has been activated. The ECO mode

is used to help extend the range that the

vehicle can be driven by consuming less

power. For additional information, refer to

"ECO mode" in the "Starting and driving"

section of this manual.

This indicator "e-Pedal" illuminates within

the vehicle information display when the

e-Pedal system has been activated. The

"e-Pedal OFF" illuminates when the system

has been deactivated. For additional infor-

mation, refer to “e-Pedal system” in the

“Starting and driving” section of this

manual.
