Nissan X-Trail e-POWER 2023 Owners Manual

8.6. Starting the e-POWER system

  1. Confirm the parking brake is applied.

  2. Confirm that the vehicle is in the P (Park) position.

    The e-POWER system is designed not to operate unless the vehicle is in the P (Park) position or the shift position is in the N (Neutral) position.

    The Intelligent Key must be carried with you when operating the power switch.

  3. Firmly depress the brake pedal and push the power switch to place the vehicle in the READY to drive position.

    To place the vehicle in the READY to drive position immediately, push and release the power switch while depressing the brake pedal with the power switch in any position. The READY to drive indicator light in the meter illuminates.

To stop the e-POWER system, push the P position switch, and push the power switch to the “OFF” position.

  • After placing the power switch in the ON position, the engine may start before the READY to drive indicator light stops blinking and then illuminates.

  • When the remaining Lithium ion (Li-ion) battery level is low, it may take a period of time until the READY to drive indicator light stops blinking and then illuminates after pushing the power switch. In the meantime, the Energy Flow, etc. will not appear.

  • The brake pedal may be firm since the pedal is operated before the e-POWER system starts. In this case, depress the brake pedal more firmly than usual.

  • You may hear a sound when the brake pedal is depressed with the e-POWER system off. This does not indicate a malfunction.

  • If the e-POWER system cannot be started, place the power switch in the “OFF” position and wait for 5 seconds or more and then restart the e-POWER system.
