tem checked. It is recommended that you visit a

tronically driven intelligent brake systems are not
functioning properly. Have the system checked. It

LEAF dealer for this service. If the BRAKE warn-
ing light (red) also illuminates, stop the vehicle

mation, refer to “Brake system” in the “Starting

WARNING
Pressing the brake pedal when the
power switch position is not in the ON
or READY to drive position and/or low
brake fluid level may increase the
stopping distance and braking will re-
quire greater pedal effort as well as
pedal travel.
If the brake fluid level is below the
minimum or MIN mark on the brake
fluid reservoir, do not drive until the
brake system has been checked. It is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer for this service.
The cooperative regenerative brake
system may not be working properly if
the brake system warning light illumi-
nates when the READY to drive indica-
tor light is ON. If you judge it to be safe,
drive carefully to the nearest service
station for repairs. Otherwise, have
your vehicle towed because driving
could be dangerous.
