.While the battery is being charged, the
Climate Ctrl. Timer cannot be operated until
the Li-ion battery available charge gauge
reached the full mark. When the battery is
not being charged, the Climate Ctrl. Timer
can be operated, even if the Li-ion battery
available charge gauge has not reached the
full mark.
. When the climate control is set on first
priority, the Climate Ctrl. Timer works
regardless of the remaining battery energy.
. If the Climate Ctrl. Timer starts its operation
while the vehicle is being charged, the
charging time will be prolonged.
. Operating the Climate Ctrl. Timer or remote
climate control in an environment with low
temperature may decrease the rate of
battery charge.
. The Climate Ctrl. Timer settings cannot be
modified while it is operating. If timer
settings are modified while the Climate Ctrl.
Timer is operating, these changes will be
reflected the next time the Climate Ctrl.
Timer operates.
. When charging is set as the first priority, the
Climate Ctrl. Timer does not start until 10
segments of the LI-ION BATTERY AVAIL-
ABLE CHARGE GAUGE are illuminated. .
When the climate control is set as the first
priority, the climate control system will be
turned on as scheduled by the Climate Ctrl.
Timer regardless of the remaining battery
energy.
. Even when the climate control is set as the
first priority, the climate control system will
be turned off when the climate control
spends more electric than the charging Li-
ion battery.
. The Li-ion battery may not charge or may
even become discharged if the Climate Ctrl.
Timer or remote climate control is used in
low ambient temperatures.
REMOTE CLIMATE CONTROL
This vehicle incorporates a communication
device that is called a TCU (Telematics Com-
munication Unit). The communication connec-
tion between this unit and NISSAN CARWINGS
Data Center allows for various remote function
services.
Even when away from the vehicle, climate
control can be started by accessing the
NISSAN CARWINGS Data Center website
using a cellular phone or a personal computer.
When operation is started, or at the set start
time, the NISSAN CARWINGS Data Center accesses the vehicle. When the vehicle receives
a command for remote operation, the climate
control immediately turns ON and operates for
the specified period of time. Confirmation of the
ON/OFF of the climate control operation can be
checked by accessing the website or by e-mail.
Establishing the CARWINGS
TMservice is ne-
cessary before using the service. See LEAF
Navigation System Owner’s Manual.

high enough to cause severe or
possibly fatal injuries to people or
animals.
NOTE:
. To check the Li-ion battery charging
status using an internet enabled smart
phone or personal computer.
—The vehicle must be located in a
cellular phone coverage area.
— The cellular phone must be located
in an area with cellular phone
coverage.
— The computer must be connected to
the internet.
. Some cellular phones are not compa-
tible with this system and cannot be
used to check the Li-ion battery char-
ging status. Confirm this beforehand.
Operating tips
.When the charge connector is connected,
the climate control operates using electric
power. When the charge connector is
disconnected from the vehicle, the climate
control operates using vehicle battery elec-
tric power. .
The climate control can be operated for a
maximum of 2 hours when the charge
connector is connected to the vehicle, or a
maximum of 15 minutes when the charge
connector is disconnected.
. The remote climate control will only start to
operate when the power switch is in the
OFF position. Be sure to check that the
power switch is in the OFF position.
. Remote climate control operation is not
available when the vehicle is in an area of
cellular communication range.
. Communication becomes unavailable when
the vehicle is not used for two weeks or
more. When the power switch is placed in
the ON position, communication with the
NISSAN CARWINGS Data Center can be
restored.
. Air conditioning is limited to the capacity of
the electric power when the charge con-
nector is connected to the vehicle. There-
fore, the temperature may not reach a
comfortable level due to performance of
the air conditioning being limited, if the
outside temperature is excessively high or
low, or if the charge connector is connected
to a 120V outlet. .
If the power switch is in the ON position or
the charge connector is disconnected, while
the remote climate control is being oper-
ated, remote climate control operation is
automatically stopped and an e-mail is sent.
. If remote climate control operation is started
while the vehicle is in normal charge mode,
the climate control operates in climate
control priority mode and charging is con-
tinued.
. If remote climate control operation is started
and charging is stopped while the vehicle is
in quick charge mode, climate control
operation is also stopped.
. If the quick charge connector is connected
and charging is not performed, remote
climate control operation starts using the
battery electric power of the vehicle.

.Check by using a cellular phone, smart
phone or personal computer. See LEAF
Navigation System Owner’s Manual.
. Check by using the charging status indicator
light. See “Charging status indicator lights”
later in this section.
NOTE:
. During the charge operation, charge
continues when the power switch is
placed in the ON position.
. The Li-ion battery cannot be charged if
the quick charge connector and the
normal charge connector are con-
nected at the same time. If another
charge connector is connected mid-
charge, charging will stop.
. For safety reasons, it is not possible to
switch to the READY to drive position
while a charge connector is connected.
. During charging, it is possible that the
radio may be inaudible due to noise by
the electromagnetic wave.HOW TO NORMAL CHARGE
WARNING
.If you use any medical electric
devices, such as an implantable
cardiac pacemaker or an implanta-
ble cardiovascular defibrillator,
check with the electric medical de-
vice manufacturer concerning the
effects that charging may have on
implanted devices before starting
the charge operation. Charging
may affect the operation.
. If you have an implantable cardiac
pacemaker or an implantable cardi-
ovascular defibrillator, while the Li-
ion battery is charging:
— Do not stay inside the vehicle.
— Do not go inside the vehicle, for
example to remove or place an
item in the passenger compart-
ment.
— Do not open the rear hatch, for example to remove or place an
item in the cargo area.
Charging may affect the operation
of electric medical device and result in serious personal injury or death.
. Be sure to follow the precautions
for using the charger that can be
installed in your home. Failing to do
so could result in serious injury or
death.
