Nissan Ariya: If the Li-ion battery becomes completely discharged

If the power limitation indicator light illuminates, the traction motor output is limited resulting in reduced vehicle speed.

Stop the vehicle in a safe location before the Li-ion battery becomes completely discharged and no power is available to drive the vehicle.

If possible, place the power switch in the OFF position while waiting for assistance to prevent discharging the 12-volt battery.

NOTE

If the Li-ion battery becomes completely discharged:

• The vehicle is automatically placed in the ON position and it will not be possible to switch to the READY to drive position.
• The vehicle is automatically switched to the N (Neutral) position and it will not be possible to drive the vehicle.

WARNING

If the vehicle is in the N (Neutral) position and the Li-ion battery and the 12- volt battery become completely discharged, the vehicle cannot be placed in the P (Park) position. If this occurs, apply the parking brake securely.

To place the vehicle in the READY to drive position so the vehicle can be driven, charge the Li-ion battery until the estimated driving range on the instrument panel changes from "---" to a numeric distance.

NOTE

• Some vibration may occur when the vehicle is stopped in case the Li-ion battery becomes completely discharged. This is not a malfunction.
• If the Li-ion battery is completely discharged, it is required to charge until the low battery charge warning light (yellow) turns off (white).

Push starting

Do not attempt to start the system by pushing the vehicle.

CAUTION

An EV (Electric Vehicle) cannot be push-started or tow-started.

Attempting to do so may cause traction motor damage.
