9.29.2. Brake Force Distribution

The ESP system is designed to help the driver maintain stability but does not prevent accidents due to abrupt steering operation at high speeds or by careless or dangerous driving techniques. Reduce vehicle speed and be especially careful when driving and cornering on slippery surfaces and always drive carefully.

Do not modify the vehicle’s suspension. If suspension parts such as shock absorbers, struts, springs, stabiliser bars, bushings and wheels are not NISSAN recommended for your vehicle or are extremely deteriorated, the ESP system may not operate properly. This could adversely affect vehicle handling performance, and the indicator light may flash or both the ${1} and indicator lights may illuminate.

If brake related parts such as brake pads, rotors and callipers are not NISSAN recommended or are extremely deteriorated, the ESP system may not operate properly and both the and indicator lights may illuminate.

If EV system control related parts are not NISSAN recommended or are extremely deteriorated, both the and indicator lights may illuminate.

When driving on extremely inclined surfaces such as higher banked corners, the ESP system may not operate properly and the indicator light may flash or both the ${1} and indicator lights may illuminate. Do not drive on these types of roads.

When driving on an unstable surface such as a turntable, ferry, elevator or ramp, the indicator light may flash or both the ${1} and indicator lights may illuminate. This is not a malfunction. Restart the EV system after driving onto a stable surface.

If wheels or tyres other than the NISSAN recommended ones are used, the ESP system may not operate properly and the indicator light may flash or both the ${1} and indicator lights may illuminate.

The ESP system is not a substitute for winter tyres or tyre chains on a snow covered road.
