2014 NISSAN LEAF light

Automatic anti-glare type (if so
equipped)
The inside mirror is designed so that it automati-
cally changes reflection based on the intensity of
the headlights of the vehicle behind.
The anti-glare system automatically turns on
when the power switch is moved to the ON
position.
When the system is turned on, the indicator light
Awill illuminate and excessive glare from the
headlights of the vehicle behind you will be re-
duced.Type A: Push the
switchBfor 3 seconds
to turn off the automatic anti-glare system. The
indicator turns off when the system is off. Push
the
switch again for 3 seconds to turn the
system on.
Do not hang any objects on the mirror or
apply glass cleaner to it. Doing so will re-
duce the sensitivity of the sensor
C, result-
ing in improper operation.
Type B: Push the “” switch
Cto make the inside
rearview mirror operate normally. The indicatorlight will turn off. Push the “I” switch
Dto turn the
system on.
Do not allow any object to cover the sen-
sors
Eor apply glass cleaner on them.
Doing so will reduce the sensitivity of the
sensor, resulting in improper operation.
WARNING
Use the night position only when neces-
sary, because it reduces rear view clarity.

Backing up behind a projecting object
The positionCis shown farther than the position
Bin the display. However, the positionCis
actually at the same distance as the position
A.
The vehicle may hit the object when backing up to
the position
Aif the object projects over the
actual backing up course.
ADJUSTING THE SCREEN
The procedure for adjusting the quality of the
screen differs depending on the type of screen
present on the vehicle.
For vehicles without Navigation System:
1. Press the ENTER/SETTING button.
2. Turn the TUNE-SCROLL knob to highlight the
“Brightness” or “Contrast” key.
3. Press the ENTER/SETTING button.
4. Adjust the level using the TUNE-SCROLL
knob and then press the ENTER/SETTING
button to apply the adjustment.• Do not adjust the Brightness or Contrast of the
RearView Monitor while the vehicle is moving.
OPERATING TIPS
• When the shift lever is shifted to R (Reverse) ,
the monitor screen automatically changes to the
RearView Monitor mode. However, the radio
can be heard.
• It may take some time until the RearView Moni-
tor is displayed after the shift lever has been
shifted to R (Reverse) . Objects may be dis-
torted momentarily until the RearView Monitor
screen is displayed completely. When the shift
lever is returned to a position other than R
(Reverse) , it may take some time until the
screen changes. Objects on the screen may be
distorted until they are completely displayed.
• When the temperature is extremely high or low,
the screen may not clearly display objects. This
is not a malfunction.
• When strong light directly enters the camera,
objects may not be displayed clearly.
• Vertical lines may be seen in objects on the
screen. This is due to strong reflected light from
the bumper. This is not a malfunction.
• The screen may flicker under fluorescent light.
This is not a malfunction.
Heater, air conditioner, audio and phone systems4-5

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.
Note:
•Odors from inside and outside the vehicle
can build up in the air conditioner unit.
Odor can enter the passenger compart-
ment through the vents.
•When parking, set the heater and air con-
ditioner controls to turn off air recircula-
tion to allow fresh air into the passenger
compartment. This should help reduce
odors inside the vehicle.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.

TION SYSTEM)
Push the STATUS button to display the climate
control system status on the navigation system
screen. (See the LEAF Navigation System Own-
er’s Manual.)NOTE:
•If the READY to drive indicator light is

Supply Equipment) is connected to the
vehicle, the power switch will change to
the ON position. At the same time, the
climate control system will stop operat-
ing. However, the fan will continue to op-
erate. If you want to turn on climate con-
trol again, place the power switch in the
OFF position and then place it in the ON
position again after confirming that the
vehicle has started charging.
•When the power switch is in the ON posi-
tion, if the power supply from the EVSE
(Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment) is in-
terrupted due to an electrical outage, etc.,
the system will operate in the following
ways.

ditioner controls to turn off air recircula-
tion to allow fresh air into the passenger
compartment. This should help reduce
odors inside the vehicle.
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
alone either. On hot, sunny days, tem-
peratures in a closed vehicle could
quickly become high enough to cause
severe or possibly fatal injuries to people
or animals. Also on cold days, tempera-
ture in a vehicle could become low
enough to cause sever or possible fatal
injuries to people or animals.1. Push the
