NISSAN 2015 LEAF - Owner's Manual - Manual (Page 185)

The vehicle should be driven with the Vehicle
Dynamic Control (VDC) system on for most driv-
ing conditions.
If the vehicle is stuck in mud or snow, the VDC
system reduces the traction motor output to re-
duce wheel spin. The traction motor speed will be
reduced even if the accelerator is depressed to
the floor. If maximum traction motor power is
needed to free a stuck vehicle, turn the VDC
system off.
To turn off the VDC system, push the VDC OFF
switch. The
indicator will illuminate.
Push the VDC OFF switch again to turn on the
VDC system, or the VDC is automatically turned
back on when the power switch is placed in the
off position and then placed back in the READY
to drive position. See “Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC) system” in the “Starting and driving” sec-
tion.
To open the charge port lid, push the charge port
lid switch. See “Charge Port Lid” in the “Pre-
Driving Checks and Adjustments” section.
