Low brake fluid warning light:
When the power switch is in the ON position,
the light warns of a low brake fluid level. If this
warning light illuminates, the Vehicle Dynamic
Control (VDC) warning light and the brake
system warning light (yellow) also illuminate.
If the light illuminates while the power switch is
in the READY to drive position with the parking
brake not applied, stop the vehicle and perform
the following items.
1. Check the brake fluid level. If brake fluid is
necessary, add fluid and have the system
checked by a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.
See “Brake fluid” in the “8. Maintenance and
do-it-yourself” section.
2. If the brake fluid level is correct, have the
warning system checked by a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer.
WARNING
. Your brake system may not be
working properly if the warning light
is on. Driving could be dangerous. If
you judge the brake system to be
safe, drive carefully to the nearest
service station for repairs. Other-
wise, have your vehicle towed be-
cause driving it could be dangerous.
. 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 in-
crease the stopping distance and
braking will require 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 at a
NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.
Electric power steering warn-
ing light
When the power switch is in the ON position,
the electric power steering warning light illumi-
nates and turn off when the power switch is
placed in the READY to drive position. This
indicates the electric power steering system is
operational.
If the electric power steering warning light
illuminates while the READY to drive indicator
light is ON, it may indicate the electric power
steering system is not functioning properly and
may need servicing. Have the electric power
steering system checked by a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer.
When the electric power steering warning light
illuminates while the READY to drive indicator is
ON, the power assist to the steering will cease
operation but you will still have control of the
vehicle. At this time, greater steering efforts are
required to operate the steering wheel, espe-
cially in sharp turns and at low speeds.
See “Electric power steering system” in the “5.
Starting and driving” section.
Electric shift control system
warning light
This light illuminates to warn when a malfunction
occurs in the electric shift control system. When
the master warning illuminates, the chime
sounds and the message, “When parked apply
parking brake”, is displayed on the dot matrix
liquid crystal display.
When the power switch is in the OFF position,
the chime sounds continuously. Make sure the
electric parking brake is applied. If the parking
brake is applied, the master warning light
illuminates and the warning message on the
dot matrix crystal display turns off and the chime
stops.
Have the system checked by a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer.
