Nissan LEAF 2023 Owners Manual
9.8.1.2. LDW system Activation/Deactivation
Perform the following steps to enable or disable the LDW system.
In the [Settings] menu, select the [Driver Assistance] key.
Select the [Lane] submenu by pressing <OK>.
A mark next to [Lane Departure Warning] indicates that the system is turned ON.
If you turn the LDW system off using the [Settings] menu, the system will remain turned off the next time you start the vehicle's EV system.
Listed below are the system limitations for the Lane Departure Warning system. Failure to operate the vehicle in accordance with these system limitations could result in serious injury or death.
The system will not operate at speeds below approximately 60 km/h (37 MPH), or if it cannot detect lane markers.
Do not use the LDW system under the following conditions as it may not function properly:
During bad weather (rain, fog, snow, etc.).
When driving on slippery roads, such as on ice or snow.
When driving on winding or uneven roads.
When there is a lane closure due to road repairs.
When driving in a makeshift or temporary lane.
When driving on roads where the lane width is too narrow.
When driving without normal tyre conditions (for example, tyre wear, low tyre pressure, installation of spare tyre, tyre chains, non-standard wheels).
When the vehicle is equipped with non-original brake parts or suspension parts.
The system may not function properly under the following conditions:
On roads where there are multiple parallel lane markers; lane markers that are faded or not painted clearly; yellow painted lane markers; non-standard lane markers; or lane markers covered with water, dirt, snow, etc.
On roads where discontinued lane markers are still detectable.
On roads where there are sharp curves.
On roads where there are sharply contrasting objects, such as shadows, snow, water, wheel ruts, seams or lines remaining after road repairs. (The LDW system could detect these items as lane markers.)
On roads where the travelling lane merges or separates.
When the vehicle's travelling direction does not align with the lane marker.
When travelling close to the vehicle in front of you, which obstructs the lane camera unit detection range.
When rain, snow, dirt or object adheres to the windscreen in front of the lane camera unit.
When the headlights are not bright due to dirt on the lens or if the aiming is not adjusted properly.
When strong light enters the lane camera unit. (For example, the light directly shines on the front of the vehicle at sunrise or sunset.)
When a sudden change in brightness occurs. (For example, when the vehicle enters or exits a tunnel or under a bridge.)
