If the AEB with Pedestrian Detection system encounters a technical error or internal fault, it will automatically deactivate to ensure vehicle safety. When this occurs, you will hear an audible chime, the AEB with Pedestrian Detection system warning light will illuminate in orange on your dashboard, and the "Malfunction: See Owner's Manual" diagnostic message will be displayed in the Nissan Leaf information center.

Action to take

If the orange warning light appears while you are driving, please pull over and park your Nissan Leaf in a safe, secure location. Turn off the EV system completely, wait a few moments, and then restart the system to attempt a reset of the sensor suite.

If the warning light remains illuminated after the restart, the system has detected a persistent issue that requires professional attention. In such cases, it is essential to have the AEB with Pedestrian Detection system inspected by qualified technicians; we recommend visiting a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer for this service.

System maintenance

The safety and reliability of your Nissan Leaf depend on its advanced sensor array, which includes a precision radar sensor located on the front bumper (B) and a high-resolution camera mounted at the upper portion of the windshield (A).

To ensure that the AEB with Pedestrian Detection system continues to operate at peak efficiency and provides you with accurate safety monitoring, please adhere to the following maintenance guidelines:

• Maintain absolute cleanliness of the sensor areas on the front bumper, the front emblem, and the windshield glass. Grime, heavy road salt, or debris can impede sensor performance.
• Exercise extreme care to avoid striking or damaging the areas where the sensors are housed, specifically the front bumper and the windshield glass.
• Do not cover the sensor areas or attach any aftermarket stickers, decals, or accessories in the immediate vicinity of these components. Such modifications can block essential signals, leading to system failure or erratic operation.
• Avoid attaching any metallic objects, such as heavy-duty brush guards or unauthorized grille accessories, near the radar sensor, as these can interfere with radar wave propagation and cause systemic errors.
• Do not place reflective materials—including white paper, documents, or mirrors—on the upper instrument panel. Glare or sunlight reflected off these items can disrupt the camera unit's ability to detect road conditions and obstacles.
• Do not attempt to alter, remove, or repaint the front bumper. If you are planning any cosmetic customization, bodywork, or repairs to the front end of your Nissan Leaf, it is recommended that you consult with a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer to ensure the sensors are correctly calibrated and handled.
