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.
• The colors of objects on the RearView Monitor may differ somewhat from those of the actual
object.
• When the contrast of objects is low at night, pressing the ENTER/SETTING button may not

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.

cally when the outside temperature is low.
In-cabin microfilter:
The climate control system is equipped with an
in-cabin microfilter which collects dirt, pollen,
dust, etc. To make sure the air conditioner, heats,
defogs, and ventilates efficiently, replace the filter
regularly. To replace the filter, contact a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer.
The filter should be replaced if the air flow
decreases significantly or if windows fog
up easily when operating the climate con-
trol system.
Servicing climate control
The climate control system in your NISSAN is
charged with a refrigerant designed with the en-
vironment in mind. This refrigerant will not harm
the earth’s ozone layer. Special charging equip-
ment and lubricant are required when servicing
your NISSAN climate control. Using improper
refrigerants or lubricants will cause severe dam-
age to your climate control system. See “Recom-
mended fluids/lubricants and capacities” in the
“Technical and consumer information” section for
climate control system refrigerant and lubricant
recommendations.
A NISSAN certified LEAF dealer will be able to
service your environmentally friendly climate con-
trol system.

8. The indicator of “Timer 1” illuminates after theClimate Ctrl. Timer is set. Use the same pro-
cedure to set the Timer 2 setting.
9. Place the power switch to the OFF position, and then connect the charge connector to the
vehicle.
Operation tips:
• The Climate Ctrl. Timer will only start when the power switch is in the “OFF” position. Always
turn the power switch to the “OFF” position after
the Climate Ctrl. Timer is set.
• Touch “Timer 1” or “Timer 2” to turn off the Climate Ctrl. Timer function. After this operation
has been performed, the indicator turns off and
the Climate Ctrl. Timer function will be turned
off. The start and stop time settings are not
deleted even if the Climate Ctrl. Timer function
is turned off. • If OFF is selected for a day of the week, the
Climate Ctrl. timer will not operate on that day.
The system will wait until the next charging timer
set to perform charging.
• While the Climate Ctrl. Timer operates, the Cli- mate Ctrl. Timer indicator and the charging sta-
tus indicator lights flash. If the Climate Ctrl.
Timer is set to activate, the Climate Ctrl. Timer
indicator illuminates.
• If the timer charge function and the Climate Ctrl. Timer are in operation at the same time due to
an overlap of the timer settings, either function
can be set to be preferentially provided with
electric power. For the details of “Timer Priority”
settings, refer to separate LEAF Navigation
System Owner’s Manual.
• The temperature in the passenger compartment may not be comfortable if entering the vehicle
too soon before or too long after the scheduled
time of departure.
• Air conditioning is limited to the capacity of the electric power when the charge connector is
connected. Therefore, the temperature may not
reach the factory default setting due to limita-
tions in air conditioning performance, if ambient
temperature is excessively high or low, or if the charge connector is connected to a 120V
outlet.
• 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 tem-
perature 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.

Note
•The temperature in the passenger com-
partment may not be comfortable if enter-
ing the vehicle too soon before or too long
after the scheduled time of departure.
• Air conditioning is limited to the capacity
of the electric power when the charge
connector is connected. Therefore, the
temperature may not reach the set tem-
perature due to limitations in air condi-
tioning performance, if ambient tempera-
ture is excessively high or low, or if the
charge connector is connected to a 120 V
plug outlet.
• The Climate Ctrl. Timer operates the cli-
mate control function so that a comfort-
able temperature is provided in the pas-
senger compartment at the scheduled
time of departure. The climate control is
set to stop at the scheduled time of
departure.
RADIO
Push the power switch to the ACC or ON posi-
tion and press the radio band select button to
turn on the radio. If you listen to the radio while
the READY to drive indicator light is off, the
power switch should be pushed to the ACC
position.
Radio reception is affected by station signal
strength, distance from radio transmitter, build-
ings, bridges, mountains and other external influ-
ences. Intermittent changes in reception quality
normally are caused by these external influences.
Using a cellular phone in or near the vehicle
may influence radio reception quality.
Radio reception
Your NISSAN radio system is equipped with
state-of-the-art electronic circuits to enhance ra-
dio reception. These circuits are designed to
extend reception range, and to enhance the qual-
ity of that reception. However, there are some general characteristics
of both FM and AM radio signals that can affect
radio reception quality in a moving vehicle, even
when the finest equipment is used. These char-
acteristics are completely normal in a given re-
ception area and do not indicate any malfunction
in your NISSAN radio system.
Reception conditions will constantly change be-
cause of vehicle movement. Buildings, terrain,
signal distance and interference from other ve-
hicles can work against ideal reception. De-
scribed below are some of the factors that can
affect your radio reception.
Some cellular phones or other devices may
cause interference or a buzzing noise to come
from the audio system speakers. Storing the de-
vice in a different location may reduce or elimi-
nate the noise.
