Nissan ARIYA 2023 Owners Manual

6.4.3.10.image Power limitation indicator light

When the power switch is in the ON position, the power limitation indicator light illuminates and then turns off.

When the power limitation indicator light is illuminated with the power switch in the READY to drive position, the power provided to the traction motor is reduced. Therefore the vehicle is not as responsive when the accelerator is depressed while the power limitation indicator light is illuminated.

When this light illuminates and any message appears on the vehicle information display, follow the instructions.

This light illuminates in the following conditions.

  • Li-ion battery available charge is extremely low.

  • Li-ion battery temperature is very low.

  • When the temperature of EV system is high (motor, inverter, coolant system, Li-ion battery etc.).

  • When the EV system has a malfunction.

If the low battery charge warning light is illuminated, charge the Li-ion battery as soon as possible.

If this light illuminates because the Li-ion battery is cold due to low outside temperatures, move the vehicle to a warmer location. The Li-ion battery temperature may be increased by charging the Li-ion battery.

If the light illuminates when the EV system becomes hot due to continuous hill climbing either continue driving at a slower safe speed, or stop the vehicle in a safe location. If this light does not turn off, contact a NISSAN certified electric vehicle dealer.

If the light illuminates in a situation other than those described above, or if it does not turn off, there may be a system malfunction. Contact a NISSAN certified electric vehicle dealer.

Power limitation mode can result in reduced power and vehicle speed. The reduced speed may be lower than other traffic, which could increase the chance of a collision. Be especially careful when driving. If the vehicle cannot maintain a safe driving speed, pull to the side of the road in a safe area. Charge the Li-ion battery if the charge is low or allow the Li-ion battery to cool.
