3-16Pre-driving checks and adjustments

Adjust the air flow direction of the vents by mov-
ing the knob (up/down, left/right) until the desired
position is achieved.
WARNING
The air conditioning cooling function operates only when the power switch
is in the ON position or when the
READY to drive indicator light is ON.
Do not leave children or adults who would normally require the support of
others alone in your vehicle. Pets
should not be left alone either. On hot,
sunny days, temperatures in a closed
vehicle could quickly become high
enough to cause severe or possibly
fatal injuries to people or animals.
Do not use the recirculation mode for long periods as it may cause the inte-
rior air to become stale and the win-
dows to fog up.
The climate control system (air conditioner and
heater functions) can be operated when the
READY to drive indicator light is illuminated.
However, while charging, the climate control sys-
tem can be used when the power switch is in the
ON position. The fan, heater and air conditioning can be turned
on manually, using the timer function and using
the remote climate control function.
These functions operate in the following condi-
tions.
Passenger side
CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM
Heater, air conditioner, audio and phone systems4-7

Air flow control:
Push the MODE button to change the air flow
mode.
— Air flows from the center and sideventilators.
— Air flows from the center and sideventilators and foot outlets.
— Air flows mainly from the foot out-lets.
— Air flows from the defroster outletsand foot outlets.
Temperature control:
Turn the temperature control dial to set the de-
sired temperature.
The temperature range is between 60°F (16°C)
and 90°F (32°C) .
Ventilation:
1. Push the AUTO button so that the indicator light turns off.
2. Push the HEAT button and A/C button if the indicator lights are on so that both indicator
lights turn off.
Note:
The ventilation mode requires a lower
power consumption, so cruising distance
will increase.
Air recirculation:
Push the intake air control
button to
change the air circulation mode. When the indi-
cator light illuminates, the flowing air is recircu-
lated inside the vehicle.
Outside air circulation:
Push the intake air control
button to
change the air circulation mode. When the indi-
cator light does not illuminate, the flowing air is
drawn from outside the vehicle.
Automatic air intake control:
To set the automatic control mode, push and hold
the
(intake air control) button. The indicator
light will blink twice and the inside/outside circu-
lation will then be controlled automatically. When
in automatic mode, the indictor light will come on
when inside air recirculation is active.
Climate Ctrl. Timer
The air conditioner starts to operate at the time of
day and day of the week specified in the settings.
This pre heats or pre cools the vehicle to a factory
preset temperature in the passenger compart-
ment before driving while the charger is con-
nected to vehicle. This helps reduce power con-
sumption from the Li-ion battery.
As the temperature is set to the factory default
setting, the user cannot adjust the temperature.
The Climate Ctrl. Timer operates the air condi-
tioner using power from the charger. Electric
power from the Li-ion battery is not used.
Once the Climate Ctrl. Timer is set, it automati-
cally starts when the set time is reached. It is
therefore not necessary to set the Climate Ctrl.
Timer everyday.
WARNING
Even if the Climate Ctrl. Timer is set, the
temperature in the passenger compart-
ment may become high or low if the sys-
tem automatically stops. Do not leave
children or adults who would normally
require the support of others alone in
your vehicle. Pets should not be left

Operating tips:
The automatic climate control is equipped withsensors as illustrated. The sensors
AandB
help maintain a constant temperature. Do not
put anything on or around these sensors.
Push the AUTO switch to reduce the power consumption of the climate control system.
When the AUTO switch is pushed, both the AUTO and A/C indicator illuminate.
The AUTO indicator will turn off if the MODE button, A/C button, fan speed control buttons,
front defroster button, outside air circulation
button or air circulation button is pushed. When the outside air temperature is low, the air
flow from the foot outlets will be low or may not
operate for up to 150 seconds after turning on
the air conditioner. This is not a malfunction.
Power consumption of the climate control varies depending on the outside temperature and the
temperature set for the climate control. Power
consumption increases if the interior tempera-
ture is cooled down too much in summer or if it
is warmed up too much in winter. This reduces
vehicle range.
When the vehicle is in the ECO position, the climate control operates in the ECO mode
which reduces the power consumption. If the charger is connected to the vehicle when
it is in the ready to drive mode and the air
conditioner or heater is on, the power switch
automatically changes to the ON position. The
climate control system automatically turns off
the heater or air conditioner and switches to the
air recirculation mode. Place the power switch
in the off position to begin charging. Turn on the
desired climate control function.
If the air conditioner or heater is on while charg- ing, the climate control system automatically
turns off the heater or air conditioning and
switches to the air recirculation mode when
charging is complete.
The remote climate control or climate control timer may fog up windows depending on the set
temperature or outside temperature.
When turning on the seat heater switch prior to operating the remote climate control or climate
control timer, the seat heater also will turn on.
The steering wheel heater will turn on automati-
cally when the outside temperature is low.
When the vehicle is in ECO mode, the air con- ditioner will accordingly stay in ECO mode for
lower power consumption.

quickly become high enough to cause
severe or possibly fatal injuries to
people or animals.
NOTE:
To check the Li-ion battery charging sta-
tus using an internet enabled smart phone
or personal computer. – The vehicle must be located in a cellu- lar 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 compatible
with this system and cannot be used to
check the Li-ion battery charging 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 electric power.
The climate control can be operated for a maxi- mum of 2 hours when the charge connector is
connected to the vehicle, or a maximum of 15 minutes when the charge connector is discon-
nected.
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 avail- able 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 connector is
connected to the vehicle. Therefore, the tem-
perature 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 con-
nected 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 operated, re-
mote 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 pri-
ority mode and charging is continued.
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 con-
trol operation starts using the battery electric
power of the vehicle.
