Climate Ctrl. Timer
While the charging connector is connected to
the vehicle, this function pre-heats or pre-cools
the passenger compartment of the vehicle to the
temperature before driving. This helps reduce
power consumption from the Li-ion battery.
The Climate Ctrl. Timer operates the air condi-
tioner using power from the charger. Electric
power from the Li-ion battery is not used.
The Climate Ctrl. Timer function allows two dif-
ferent timer settings. Each timer charge function
can be set to activate on a different day of the
week.
Once the Climate Ctrl. Timer is set, it will com-
plete air conditioning by the time that is set. It is
not necessary to set the Climate Ctrl. Timer ev-
eryday.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 severe or possible fatal
injuries to people or animals.

Operating tips for using Climate
Ctrl. Timer
• Temperature setting for the Climate Ctrl. can be
changed from [Timer/ Remote —Set Climate
Temp]. • 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.
• To turn off the Climate Ctrl. Timer function, touch [ON] until the indicator turns off. The start
and stop time settings will not be deleted even if
the Climate Ctrl. Timer function is turned off.
• While the Climate Ctrl. Timer is operating, the Climate Ctrl. indicator and the charging status
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.
• If the Climate Ctrl. Timer starts operating while the vehicle is being charged, the time required
for charging will be longer.
• Operating the Climate Ctrl. Timer or remote climate control in an environment where the
temperature is low may decrease the rate of
battery charge.
• Timer setting can also be changed while Cli- mate Ctrl. Timer is operated. When the power
4-38Display screen, heater, air conditioner, audio and phone systems

position is switched to OFF, the air conditioner
starts or enters waiting mode depending on the
new timer settings.
• When the difference in temperature between the air conditioner setting temperature and the
temperature outside the vehicle is large, the
temperature inside the vehicle may not be main-
tained at the setting temperature.
• The charging status indicator lights illuminate in a specific pattern when the Li-ion battery
warmer operates. The charging status indicator
lights use the same pattern to indicate 12–volt
battery charging, Climate Ctrl. Timer operation
or Remote Climate Control operation. The
charging status indicator lights do not change if
the Li-ion battery warmer operates at the same
time as the above features.
• The temperature in the passenger compartmentmay 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 set temperature due to limitations in
air conditioning performance, if ambient tem-
perature is excessively high or low, or if the charge connector is connected to a 120–volt
plug outlet.
• The Climate Ctrl. Timer operates the climate control function so that a comfortable tempera-
ture is provided in the passenger compartment
at the scheduled time of departure. The climate
control is set to stop at the scheduled time of
departure.
Remote climate control
This vehicle incorporates a communication de-
vice that is called a TCU (Telematics Communi-
cation Unit) . The communication connection be-
tween this unit and Nissan Data Center allows for
various remote function services.
Even when away from the vehicle, climate control
can be started by accessing the Nissan Data
Center website using a cellular phone or a per-
sonal computer.
When operation is started, or at the set start time,
the Nissan Data Center accesses the vehicle.
When the vehicle receives a command for re-
mote 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. Completing registration for the NissanCon-
nect
SMMobile Apps service is necessary before
using the service. For additional information, refer
to the separate LEAF Navigation System Own-
er’s Manual.
WARNING
• Radio waves could adversely affect electric medical equipment. For addi-
tional information, refer to your elec-
tric medical equipment manufacturer
for the possible effect on pacemakers
before using the remote climate con-
trol.
• Even if the remote climate control is set, the temperature in the passenger
room may become high if the system
automatically stops. Do not leave chil-
dren or adults who would normally re-
quire 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.

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 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
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 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 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 120-volt 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.
