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, have the system checked. It is rec-
ommended that you visit a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer for this service.

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

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.
