Nissan LEAF 2023 Owners Manual
9.12. Overtaking another vehicle
Illustration 4: The side indicator light illuminates if you overtake a vehicle and that vehicle stays in the detection zone for approximately 3 seconds.
Illustration 5: If the driver activates the turn signal while another vehicle is in the detection zone, then the system chimes (twice) and the side indicator light flashes.
Illustration 6: If the I-BSI system is on and your vehicle approaches a lane marker while another vehicle is in the detection zone, the system chimes (three times) and the side indicator light flashes. The I-BSI system activates to help return the vehicle back to the centre of the driving lane.
When overtaking several vehicles in a row, the vehicles after the first vehicle may not be detected if they are travelling close together.
The radar sensors may not detect slower moving vehicles if they are passed quickly.
If the driver activates the turn signal before a vehicle enters the detection zone, the side indicator light will flash but no chime will sound when the other vehicle is detected.
