Nissan Leaf Owners Manual | 2025
6.18.3. System status indicator
The indicator lights (1) and (2) above the SOS button indicate the status of the vehicle emergency call system. If the indicator light is illuminated red or no indicator light is illuminated the emergency call may not connect to the emergency call centre when the SOS button is pressed. Also an intelligent Emergency call may not be sent when a collision occurs.
During vehicle start up the system operates self diagnostics and the red indicator light is illuminated for up to 3 seconds.
At any other time if the red indicator light is illuminated contact a NISSAN certified electric vehicle dealer or qualified workshop for assistance. In the event of a critical system failure that would disable the 112-based eCall in-vehicle system, the red indicator light is illuminated as a warning.
In the event of an accident and if the SOS button fails to work (if the indicator light is already illuminated red or there is no indicator light), the occupants should seek other methods of contacting the emergency services such as a mobile phone.
