Спидометр

Спидометр отображает скорость движения автомобиля в километрах в час (km/h) или в милях в час (МРН).

Одометр/счетчик пробега

Одометр (1) и счетчик пробега (2) отображаются на матричном жидкокристаллическом дисплее при включенном питании или состоянии готовности автомобиля к движению («READY»).

Одометр записывает общий пробег, пройденный автомобилем за весь период эксплуатации.

Счетчик пробега записывает расстояние, пройденное за отдельную поездку.

Изменение отображения

При нажатии на кнопку «TRIP» (3), расположенную в левой части панели комбинации приборов, отображение изменяется следующим образом:

ПРОБЕГ А → ПРОБЕГ В → ПРОБЕГ А

Сброс данных счетчика пробега

Нажатие на кнопку «TRIP» (3) примерно на одну секунду сбрасывает счетчик пробега в нуль.

Данный указатель отображает температуру литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей.

Температура литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей находится в нормальном диапазоне, когда индикаторы дисплея соответствуют диапазону (1), указанному на рисунке.

Температура литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей может изменяться в зависимости от температуры наружного воздуха и условий вождения.

Примечание
Если отображаемая на дисплее температура литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей ниже красной зоны нормального диапазона, необходимо снизить скорость движения автомобиля, чтобы уменьшить температуру. Если отображается значение температуры выше нормального диапазона, питание, подаваемое на тяговый электромотор, понижается. При этом включается индикатор ограничения подачи питания, поэтому скорость движения автомобиля не повышается даже при нажатии водителем педали акселератора.
Если температура наружного воздуха чрезвычайно низкая, указатель температуры литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей может не отображать значение температуры. При этом электромобиль не может перейти в режим готовности к движению («READY»). Нужно связаться с сертифицированным дилером Nissan.

Данный указатель отображает текущее потребление тягового электромотора (А), а также регенеративную энергию торможения, подаваемую на литий-ионные аккумуляторные батареи (В).

Белая точка (1) на дисплее перемещается вправо или влево в зависимости от текущего состояния.

Белая точка перемещается вправо, когда питание потребляется тяговым электромотором (литий-ионные аккумуляторные батареи разряжаются).

Белая точка перемещается влево, когда питание генерируется и подается на литий-ионную аккумуляторную батарею от регенеративной тормозной системы (литий-ионные аккумуляторные батареи заряжаются).

Указатель энергопотребления также отображает ограничение подачи питания на электромотор или регенеративного торможения. Если ограничено регенеративное торможение, кружок на дисплее изменяется с двойного на одинарный (2).

Регенеративное торможение автоматически уменьшается, если литий-ионные аккумуляторные батареи полностью заряжены, для предотвращения перезарядки аккумуляторов. Кроме того, регенеративное торможение также автоматически уменьшается при слишком высокой или слишком низкой температуре литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей (отображается красной/синей зонами указателя температуры литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей) для предотвращения повреждений литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей.

Чем больше снижается регенеративное торможение, тем больше двойных кружков изменяются на одинарные.

Если заряд литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей низок, ограничивается питание, подаваемое на тяговый электромотор. Питание электромотора также ограничивается при слишком высокой или слишком низкой температуре литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей (отображается красной/синей зонами указателя температуры литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей) для предотвращения повреждений литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей.

Чем больше ограничивается питание, подаваемое на тяговый электромотор, тем больше двойных кружков изменяется на одинарные.

Указатель остаточного пробега (1) (в милях или в километрах) показывает прогнозируемое расстояние, которое сможет пройти электромобиль без подзарядки. Значение указателя остаточного пробега постоянно пересчитывается, основываясь на имеющейся величине заряда литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей и текущем значении энергопотребления.

Примечание
Указатель остаточного пробега начинает мигать, если загорается предупредительный индикатор низкого заряда батарей. Кроме того, если при этом продолжается движение автомобиля в таком режиме, а литий-ионные батареи близки к полной разрядке, отображается «—». Необходимо зарядить литий-ионные аккумуляторные батареи как можно скорее. После того как аккумуляторы будут заряжены, восстанавливается исходное отображение.
После зарядки электромобиля отображаемое значение указателя остаточного пробега вычисляется, основываясь на действительных значениях энергопотребления с предыдущей поездки. Поэтому значение указателя остаточного пробега при полном заряде батарей может быть различным после каждой новой зарядки.
Значение указателя остаточного пробега увеличивается или уменьшается при включении или выключении кондиционера, а также переключении электромобиля из режима «О» (вождение) в режим «ЕСО» (или наоборот), при включении или выключении различных электропотребителей или в зависимости от условий вождения.

Указатель (1) отображает приблизительное значение текущего уровня заряда литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей.

Необходимо заряжать литий-ионные аккумуляторные батареи до того, как указатель снизится до нижней линии.

Индикатор низкого заряда батарей загорается, когда уровень заряда литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей становится слишком низким. Нужно подзарядить батареи при первом удобном случае, желательно, до снижения до нижней линии. Нижняя линия указателя соответствует чрезвычайно низкому остатку заряда литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей.

Примечание
Количество сегментов указателя текущего заряда литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей определяется по имеющемуся уровню заряда и емкости батарей при текущей температуре.
Температура влияет на емкость литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей. Емкость понижается, если литий-ионные аккумуляторные батареи холодные, и, соответственно, повышается, если батареи теплые. Количество сегментов указателя текущего заряда литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей может изменяться в зависимости от емкости литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей. Например, при охлаждении литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей количество горящих сегментов указателя увеличивается, поскольку в процентном соотношении имеющийся заряд к емкости становится больше. По этой же причине при нагреве литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей количество горящих сегментов указателя уменьшается.

Данный указатель отображает емкость литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей, то есть их способность к сохранению заряда.

Емкость литий-ионных батарей со временем уменьшается, при этом уменьшается и уровень указателя.

Наружная температура воздуха может отображаться в градусах Фаренгейта (°F) или Цельсия (°С).

Отображаемое значение может отличаться от реальной температуры воздуха снаружи автомобиля по различным причинам.

Индикатор «ЕСО» показывает, насколько экономичен стиль вождения водителя.

На работу данного индикатора влияют следующие условия:

— работа педали акселератора;

— работа педали тормоза;

— условия вождения;

— дорожная обстановка;

— использование отопителя и кондиционера;

— время простоя автомобиля в режиме готовности к движению («READY») с включенным дополнительным оборудованием.

Мгновенный уровень ЕСО-вождения

Мгновенный уровень ЕСО-вождения отображается полосой (1), которая увеличивается (более экономичное вождение) или уменьшается (менее экономичное вождение) в зависимости от работы электромобиля.

Долгосрочный уровень ЕСО-вождения

Долгосрочный уровень ЕСОвождения отображается большим значком деревца (2). Чем дольше электромобиль работает экономично, тем большее количество сегментов большого значка деревца отображаются. После того, как загорятся все сегменты большого значка деревца, загорается маленький значок деревца (3), а большой значок сбрасывается. Чем дольше электромобиль работает в экономичном режиме, тем больше маленьких деревьев отображается на дисплее. Большое и маленькие деревья, «выращенные» за время движения, гаснут после выключения питания электромобиля. Однако количество отображаемых деревьев сохраняется в памяти навигационной системы для показа долгосрочного эффективного вождения электромобиля.

Для повышения уровня ЕСО-вождения необходимо учитывать следующее:

— В режиме «ЕСО» электромобиля применяется большее регенеративное торможение при отпущенной педали акселератора, чем в режиме «D» (вождение). Как следствие, большее количество электроэнергии подается на литий-ионные аккумуляторные батареи.

— Режим «ЕСО» помогает снизить потребление электроэнергии за счет снижения ускорения по сравнению с аналогичным положением педали акселератора в режиме «Р» (вождение).

— Режим «ЕСО» уменьшает подачу питания на систему отопителя и кондиционера.

— Нужно стараться поддерживать постоянную скорость движения. Для этого можно удерживать педаль акселератора в одном положении или пользоваться круиз-контролем.

— Ускоряться нужно медленно и плавно. Нажатия и отпускания педали акселератора для ускорения и замедления должны быть мягкими.

— На шоссе скорость движения должна быть умеренной.

— Нужно избегать частых остановок и торможений, соблюдая безопасную дистанцию до впередиидущего автомобиля.

— Нужно выключать кондиционер/ отопитель, если в них нет необходимости.

— Выбор умеренных температурных настроек отопления или охлаждения салона поможет уменьшить энергопотребление.

— Рекомендуется использовать кондиционер/отопитель и закрыть все окна для уменьшения сопротивления воздуха при движении с крейсерской скоростью по шоссе,

— Для замедления автомобиля рекомендуется отпускать педаль акселератора и не применять тормоза, когда это позволяют дорожные условия. Данный автомобиль оборудован регенеративной тормозной системой. Первичной задачей регенеративной тормозной системы является использование энергии торможения для подзарядки литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей и, таким образом, увеличение пробега на одной зарядке. Вторичная задача заключается в реализации «торможения двигателем», основанной на состоянии литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей.

Настройка часов на матричном жидкокристаллическом дисплее осуществляется через бортовой компьютер (см. ниже в данной главе).

Если подача питания (12-вольтная аккумуляторная батарея) прерывается, часы сбиваются. Необходимо перенастроить их заново.

Примечание
Данные часы не синхронизированы с часами, отображаемыми на экране навигационной системы. Таймер зарядки запускает и останавливает зарядку, основываясь на времени, отображаемом на экране навигационной системы.

Когда все двери автомобиля закрыты, активировать и нажать кнопку включения питания электромобиля. Должны загореться следующие сигнализаторы и индикаторы (если они установлены):

Следующие сигнализаторы и индикаторы загорятся кратковременно, а затем гаснут:

Если какой-либо сигнализатор при проверке не включился, это может означать перегорание лампы или разрыв электрической цепи соответствующего сигнализатора. Нужно обратиться на сервисную станцию официального дилера NISSAN для проверки и ремонта системы.

Некоторые индикаторы и сигнализаторы также отображаются на матричном жидкокристаллическом дисплее в нижней части комбинации приборов.

Сигнализатор системы зарядки 12-вольтной аккумуляторной батареи

Преобразователь DC/DC преобразует напряжение 400 В литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей для зарядки 12-вольтной аккумуляторной батареи.

Данный сигнализатор горит постоянно после включения питания электромобиля, и гаснет при включении индикатора готовности к движению («READY»).

Если данный сигнализатор загорается в процессе эксплуатации автомобиля, раздается звуковой сигнал и дополнительно отображаются следующие сигнализаторы:

— общий сигнализатор неисправности (красный);

— сигнализатор неисправности системы электромобиля.

На матричном жидкокристаллическом дисплее также появляются и исчезают следующие предупредительные текстовые сообщения. Если автомобиль движется: «Stop the vehicle» («Остановите автомобиль»), а если автомобиль остановлен: «When parked apply parking brake» («Если остановлен, затяните стояночный тормоз»). При появлении этих сообщений нужно незамедлительно остановить автомобиль в безопасном месте, затянуть стояночный тормоз и нажать кнопку «Р» на рычаге селектора, чтобы перевести автомобиль в режим парковки. При этом должен загореться индикатор стояночного тормоза и прозвучать соответствующий звуковой сигнал. Необходимо связаться с сертифицированным дилером Nissan.

ВНИМАНИЕ
Если сигнализатор системы зарядки 12-вольтной аккумуляторной батареи продолжает гореть после включения индикатора готовности к движению («READY»), нужно незамедлительно остановить автомобиль в безопасном месте и связаться с сертифицированным дилером Nissan.
Если индикатор системы зарядки 12-вольтной аккумуляторной батареи продолжает гореть после включения индикатора готовности к движению («READY»), не производить подзарядку 12-вольтной аккумуляторной батареи. Это может привести к неисправности преобразователя DC/DC. Необходимо связаться с сертифицированным дилером Nissan.
Примечание
Если автомобиль не переходит в режим готовности к движению («READY») при включенном питании и нажатой педали тормоза, нужно выполнить процедуру запуска от внешнего источника питания (см. главу 1 «Действия в чрезвычайных ситуациях»).

Сигнализатор неисправности антиблокировочной тормозной системы (ABS)

После включения питания или в режиме готовности к движению («READY») световой сигнализатор антиблокировочной тормозной системы загорается и через некоторое время гаснет. Это означает, что антиблокировочная тормозная система исправна.

Если сигнализатор антиблокировочной тормозной системы не гаснет при работающем электромоторе или загорается во время движения, это может указывать на неисправность антиблокировочной системы и необходимость ее проверки. Нужно обратиться на сервисную станцию официального дилера Nissan для проверки и ремонта антиблокировочной тормозной системы.

При возникновении неисправности ABS ее антиблокировочная функция отключается. Тормозная система при этом полностью сохраняет свою работоспособность. Однако система не будет способна предотвратить блокировку колес при торможении.

Сигнализатор неисправности тормозной системы (желтый)

Данный сигнализатор работает для совместных регенеративных тормозов и электронно-управляемой интеллектуальной тормозной системы. После включения питания или в режиме готовности к движению («READY») сигнализатор продолжает гореть еще около двух или трех секунд. Если сигнализатор загорается в любое другое время, это может указывать на неполадки в работе совместных регенеративных тормозов и/или электронно-управляемой интеллектуальной тормозной системы. Нужно обратиться в дилерский центр Nissan для проверки системы. Если также загорается красный сигнализатор неисправности тормозной системы, необходимо немедленно остановить автомобиль и связаться с сертифицированным дилерским центром Nissan.

ВНИМАНИЕ
Нажатие на педаль тормоза при выключенном питании электромобиля и/или низком уровне тормозной жидкости может привести к увеличению тормозного пути автомобиля и потребовать большего усилия и большего хода на педали тормоза.
Если уровень тормозной жидкости в бачке ниже минимальной отметки, не следует совершать поездок на автомобиле до полной проверки герметичности тормозной системы.
Система совместных регенеративных тормозов может не работать должным образом, если сигнализатор неисправности тормозной системы продолжает гореть в режиме готовности к движению («READY»). Даже если существует уверенность, что продолжать движение безопасно, автомобиль следует отбуксировать к месту ремонта, поскольку управление им при таком техническом состоянии может представлять опасность.

Сигнализатор неисправности тормозной системы (красный)

После включения питания электромобиля и перехода в режим готовности к движению («READY») данный сигнализатор продолжает гореть в течение нескольких секунд.

Если сигнализатор загорается в любое другое время, это может указывать на неполадки в гидравлической системе тормозов. При включении данного сигнализатора необходимо незамедлительно остановить автомобиль и связаться с сертифицированным дилером Nissan.

Сигнализатор низкого уровня тормозной жидкости

Если включено питание электромобиля, включение сигнализатора предупреждает о низком уровне тормозной жидкости. Если включен этот сигнализатор, то также включаются сигнализатор неисправности системы динамического управления (VDC) и сигнализатор неисправности тормозной системы (желтый). Если данный сигнализатор загорается в режиме готовности к движению («READY») при выключенном стояночном тормозе, нужно остановить автомобиль и выполнить следующее:

1. Проверить уровень тормозной жидкости. Если уровень тормозной жидкости низкий, долить тормозную жидкость и обратиться на сервисную станцию официального дилера Nissan для проверки системы.

2. Если уровень тормозной жидкости соответствует норме, следует немедленно обратиться на сервисную станцию официального дилера Nissan.

ВНИМАНИЕ
Тормозная система может работать неправильно, если включен сигнализатор низкого уровня тормозной жидкости. Продолжать движение опасно.
Даже если существует уверенность, что продолжать движение безопасно, автомобиль следует отбуксировать к месту ремонта, поскольку управление им при таком техническом состоянии может представлять опасность.
При выключенном питании электромобиля и/или при недостаточном уровне тормозной жидкости усилие на педали тормоза и ее ход увеличатся; соответственно увеличится тормозной путь автомобиля.
Если уровень тормозной жидкости в бачке ниже минимальной отметки, нельзя продолжать движение до проверки тормозной системы.

Сигнализатор неисправности электроусилителя рулевого управления

После включения питания электромобиля сигнализатор неисправности электроусилителя рулевого управления загорается и гаснет при переходе в режим готовности к движению («READY»). Это означает, что система электроусилителя рулевого управления исправна.

Если сигнализатор электроусилителя рулевого управления продолжает гореть после включения индикатора готовности к движению («READY»), это может указывать на неисправность системы электроусилителя рулевого управления и на необходимость ее обслуживания. Следует проверить состояние электроусилителя рулевого управления.

Если сигнализатор электроусилителя рулевого управления продолжает гореть после включения индикатора готовности к движению («READY»), усилитель рулевого управления прекращает свою работу, но водитель по-прежнему может управлять автомобилем. При этом необходимо прилагать большие усилия на рулевом колесе, особенно, в крутых поворотах и на низких скоростях движения.

Сигнализатор неисправности системы управления электропереключением

Данный сигнализатор предупреждает о неисправностях в системе управления электропереключением. Одновременно с этим сигнализатором загорается общий сигнализатор неисправности, звучит звуковой сигнал и выдается сообщение «When parked apply parking brake» на матричном жидкокристаллическом дисплее.

После выключения питания звуковой сигнал будет продолжаться. Нужно активировать стояночный тормоз. После того как стояночный тормоз будет активирован, общий сигнализатор неисправности и сообщение на матричном жидкокристаллическом дисплее погаснут, а звуковой сигнал прекратится. Необходимо проверить систему электропереключения.

Сигнализатор неисправности системы электромобиля

Данный сигнализатор загорается при обнаружении неисправностей в следующих системах:

— система тягового электромотора и инвертора;

— зарядный порт или бортовое зарядное устройство;

— система литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей;

— система охлаждения;

— система управления переключениями;

— активация системы экстренного выключения (см. главу 1 «Действия в чрезвычайных ситуациях»).

Рекомендуется связаться с дилерским центром Nissan.

Сигнализатор неисправности головного освещения

Данный сигнализатор загорается в случае неисправности фар головного освещения. Необходимо проверить систему головного освещения.

Сигнализатор низкого давления воздуха в шинах

Автомобиль оборудован системой контроля давления воздуха в шинах (TPMS), которая следит за давлением воздуха в каждой шине.

Сигнализатор низкого давления воздуха в шинах предупреждает о низком давлении воздуха в шинах или о неисправности системы TPMS.

После включения питания электромобиля данный сигнализатор загорается приблизительно на секунду, а потом гаснет.

Предупреждение о низком давлении воздуха в шинах

Если при движении автомобиля давление воздуха в какой-либо шине упадет, этот сигнализатор загорится. Также на информационном дисплее появляется предупреждение о низком давлении воздуха в шинах (например, «Check tyre pressure» — «Проверьте давление в шинах»).

Если загорелся сигнализатор низкого давления воздуха в шинах, нужно остановить автомобиль, проверить давление воздуха во всех шинах и при необходимости довести его до величины, указанной на табличке с информацией о шинах в графе «COLD» (холодные шины), расположенной в проеме двери водителя. Сигнализатор низкого давления воздуха в шинах не выключается автоматически после корректировки давления воздуха в шине. После того как давление воздуха в шине будет доведено до рекомендованной величины, необходимо проехать на автомобиле со скоростью не менее 25 км/ч, чтобы система TPMS активировалась, а сигнализатор низкого давления воздуха в шинах погас. Для проверки давления воздуха в шинах использовать манометр.

Предупреждение о низком давлении воздуха в шинах (например, «Check tyre pressure» — «Проверьте давление в шинах») будет появляться каждый раз при включении питания электромобиля до тех пор, пока будет гореть сигнализатор низкого давления воздуха в шинах.

После замены колеса или перестановки колес также требуется сброс данных системы TPMS.

В зависимости от колебаний температуры наружного воздуха сигнализатор низкого давления воздуха в шинах может загореться даже при правильном давлении воздуха в шинах. Когда шины остынут, нужно скорректировать давление воздуха в них в соответствии с рекомендованной величиной давления воздуха в холодной шине и выполнить сброс данных системы TPMS.

Если после сброса данных системы TPMS сигнализатор низкого давления воздуха в шинах не погаснет, это может указывать на неисправность системы. Рекомендуется обратиться на сервисную станцию официального дилера Nissan для проверки и ремонта системы.

Неисправность системы контроля давления воздуха в шинах (TPMS) Если в системе TPMS обнаружена неисправность, сигнализатор низкого давления воздуха в шинах будет мигать в течение примерно минуты после перевода выключателя зажигания в положение «ON». По истечении минуты сигнализатор останется гореть постоянно. Рекомендуется обратиться на сервисную станцию официального дилера Nissan для проверки и ремонта системы. Предупреждение о низком давлении воздуха в шинах не появляется, если сигнализатор низкого давления воздуха в шинах включается при неисправности системы TPMS.

ВНИМАНИЕ
Радиоволны могут вызывать нарушения в работе медицинских приборов. Лица, пользующиеся кардиостимуляторами, должны проконсультироваться с производителем медицинского электрооборудования, прежде чем пользоваться системой.
Если сигнализатор не загорается при включении питания электромобиля, нужно как можно скорее обратиться на сервисную станцию официального дилера Nissan для проверки системы.
Если сигнализатор низкого давления воздуха в шинах загорается во время движения, нужно как можно скорее снизить скорость и остановить автомобиль на обочине, избегая при этом резких маневров и интенсивного торможения. Продолжение движения при низком давлении воздуха в шинах может привести к повреждению шин. Возможно дорожно-транспортное происшествие, сопряженное с тяжелыми травмами и повреждением автомобиля. Следует проверить давление воздуха во всех четырех шинах, довести давление воздуха в шинах до величины, рекомендованной для холодных шин («COLD») и указанной в табличке с информацией о шинах, расположенной в проеме двери водителя, чтобы сигнализатор низкого давления воздуха в шинах погас. Если сигнализатор продолжает гореть после корректировки давления воздуха в шинах, возможно, шина повреждена. Если шина повреждена, необходимо как можно скорее отремонтировать ее с помощью комплекта для временного ремонта поврежденной шины (см. главу «Действия в чрезвычайных ситуациях»).
После корректировки давления воздуха в шинах необходимо обязательно выполнить сброс данных системы TPMS. До того, как будет произведен сброс данных системы TPMS, она не сможет функционировать надлежащим образом.
При замене колеса система TPMS не будет функционировать, а сигнализатор низкого давления воздуха в шинах будет мигать примерно минуту. По истечении минуты сигнализатор останется гореть постоянно. Для замены колеса и/или возврата данных системы в исходное состояние рекомендуется обратиться на сервисную станцию официального дилера Nissan.
Замена оригинальных шин на шины, не рекомендованные компанией Nissan, может повлиять на правильность функционирования системы TPMS.
Наличие системы TPMS не отменяет необходимость регулярно проверять давление воздуха в шинах. Нужно обязательно регулярно проверять давление воздуха в шинах.
Если автомобиль движется со скоростью менее 25 км/ч, система TPMS может функционировать неправильно.
Необходимо обязательно устанавливать шины рекомендованного размера на все четыре колеса автомобиля.

Общий сигнализатор неисправности (красный/желтый)

Имеется два типа общего сигнализатора неисправности: желтый и красный. Эти сигнализаторы включаются вместе с другими сигнализаторами или индикаторами, а также при возникновении информационных сообщений на жидкокристаллическом дисплее.

Желтый общий сигнализатор неисправности

Желтый общий сигнализатор неисправности расположен в верхней части панели приборов.

Данный сигнализатор загорается при включении желтых сигнализаторов в нижней части комбинации приборов, а также при появлении сообщений на матричном жидкокристаллическом дисплее.

Красный общий сигнализатор неисправности

Красный общий сигнализатор неисправности расположен в верхней части панели приборов.

Данный сигнализатор загорается при включении красных сигнализаторов в нижней части комбинации приборов или при появлении сообщений на матричном жидкокристаллическом дисплее.

Сигнализатор непристегнутого ремня безопасности

Сигнализатор непристегнутого ремня безопасности и соответствующий звуковой сигнал напоминают водителю о необходимости пристегнуть ремень безопасности. Сигнализатор загорается каждый раз при включении питания электромобиля и продолжает гореть до тех пор, пока ремень безопасности водителя остается непристегнутым. Одновременно в течение примерно шести секунд будет звучать предупреждающий звуковой сигнал, если ремень безопасности водителя не был пристегнут. Сигнализатор непристегнутого ремня безопасности может загореться также в случае, если переднее пассажирское сиденье занято, а ремень безопасности пассажира не был пристегнут. Однако в течение пяти секунд после включения питания электромобиля система не включает сигнализатор непристегнутого ремня безопасности переднего пассажира.

Сигнализатор неисправности системы подушек безопасности (SRS)

ВНИМАНИЕ
Если горит сигнализатор неисправности системы подушек безопасности, то существует вероятность, что фронтальные, боковые подушки и надувные шторки безопасности, а также преднатяжители ремней безопасности могут не сработать при столкновении. Для того чтобы защитить себя и пассажиров от тяжелых последствий при столкновении, нужно как можно быстрее доставить автомобиль на сервисную станцию официального дилера Nissan для проверки и ремонта.

При нажатии кнопки включения питания электромобиля световой сигнализатор неисправности системы подушек безопасности должен загореться примерно на семь секунд и затем погаснуть, что указывает на исправность системы.

Если возникает одно из перечисленных ниже условий, то система подушек безопасности и пиротехнические преднатяжители ремней безопасности нуждаются в ремонте:

— сигнализатор неисправности системы подушек безопасности остается включенным по истечении примерно семи секунд;

— сигнализатор неисправности системы подушек безопасности мигает;

— сигнализатор неисправности системы подушек безопасности не включается.

До проверки и устранения неисправности система подушек безопасности и/или преднатяжители ремней безопасности могут не функционировать должным образом.

Сигнализатор системы динамического контроля (VDS)

Данный индикатор мигает при срабатывании системы динамического управления автомобилем (VDC), чтобы предупредить водителя о движении по скользкой дороге, когда тягово-сцепные возможности автомобиля ограничены.

Если сигнализатор системы VDC горит постоянно, это говорит о том, что система переведена в безопасный режим работы, например, из-за неправильного функционирования. Рекомендуется проверить систему в дилерском центре Nissan. В случае обнаружения неисправности в системе VDC данная система прекращает функционировать, но автомобиль по-прежнему сохраняет управляемость.

Индикатор низкого заряда литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей

Данный индикатор загорается, когда доступный заряд литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей слишком низок. В таком случае необходимо как можно скорее зарядить батареи. Желательно это сделать, пока указатель текущего заряда литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей не достигнет нижней линии.

Примечание
Индикатор низкого заряда литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей выключается непосредственно перед полной разрядкой литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей и остановкой автомобиля. Для продолжения движения необходимо снова зарядить батареи.

Индикатор электрического стояночного тормоза

После включения питания электромобиля данный индикатор загорается, если стояночный тормоз активирован, и гаснет, если стояночный тормоз отпущен. Одновременно с данным индикатором включается общий сигнализатор неисправности (красный). Если стояночный тормоз отпущен, оба индикатора гаснут.

Если индикатор электрического стояночного тормоза мигает после включения питания электромобиля или готовности к движению («READY») и продолжает мигать после активации и отпускания стояночного тормоза, это указывает на неисправность электрического стояночного тормоза.

Индикатор подключения зарядного разъема

Данный индикатор загорается при подключении зарядного разъема к электромобилю и мигает в процессе зарядки.

Примечание
Если зарядный разъем подключен к электромобилю, переключатель питания не может быть переведен в режим готовности к движению («READY»).

Индикатор ограничения энергопотребления

Когда загорается индикатор ограничения энергопотребления, подача питания на тяговый электромотор уменьшается. Поэтому скорость движения электромобиля не будет увеличиваться даже при нажатии на педаль акселератора.

Если загорается данный индикатор, на дисплее навигационной системы и матричном жидкокристаллическом дисплее выводятся предупреждающие текстовые сообщения. Необходимо следовать инструкциям, приведенным на дисплеях.

Данный индикатор загорается в следующих случаях:

— доступный заряд литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей слишком низкий;

— температура литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей слишком низкая (примерно -20 °С);

— температура компонентов электромобиля (электромотор, инвертор, система охлаждения, литий-ионные аккумуляторные батареи и т. п.) слишком высокая;

— в системе электромобиля обнаружена неисправность.

Если загорается индикатор низкого заряда литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей, необходимо зарядить батареи как можно скорее.

Если данный индикатор загорается из-за того, что литий-ионные аккумуляторные батареи слишком холодные вследствие низкой температуры окружающей среды, нужно переместить электромобиль в более теплое место. Кроме того, температуру литий-ионных аккумуляторных батарей можно повысить за счет зарядки.

Если индикатор загорается вследствие перегрева системы электромобиля из-за продолжительного движения на подъем, то нужно либо продолжить движение на низкой скорости в безопасном режиме, либо полностью остановить автомобиль в безопасном месте. Если данный индикатор не гаснет, нужно связаться с официальным дилером Nissan для получения помощи.

Если данный индикатор загорается не по описанным выше причинам или не гаснет, наиболее вероятной причиной является неисправность какого-либо компонента системы электромобиля. Нужно связаться с официальным дилером Nissan для получения помощи.

ВНИМАНИЕ
Режим ограничения энергопотребления может привести к падению мощности и снижению скорости движения автомобиля. Если пониженная скорость движения ниже скорости движения дорожного потока вокруг автомобиля, увеличивается риск столкновений. Необходимо быть особенно осторожным при вождении в подобной ситуации. Если автомобиль не способен поддерживать скорость безопасного движения, нужно увести его с дороги в безопасное место, после чего подзарядить литий-ионные аккумуляторные батареи, если причина заключается в низком заряде, или дать батареям остыть.
