Automatic operation
The electronic parking brake is automati-

disable when the driver pushes the accel-
erator, the driver’s seat belt must be

the power switch (for example, by EV
system stalling).
• Before leaving the vehicle, move the
shift lever to the P (Park) position and
check that the electronic parking
brake indicator light (
or PARK) is
illuminated to confirm that the elec-
tronic parking brake is applied. The
electronic parking brake indicator
light (
or PARK) will remain on for
a period of time after the driver’s
door is locked.
CAUTION
• When parking in an area where the
outside temperature is below 32°F
(0°C), the parking brake, if applied,
may freeze in place and may be diffi-
cult to release.
• For safe parking, it is recommended
that you place the shift lever in the P
(Park) position and securely block
the wheels.
NOTE:
• If a malfunction occurs in the elec-
tronic parking brake system (for ex-
ample, due to battery discharge), it is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer.
