DISPLAYING CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM
STATUS SCREEN (MODELS WITH NAVIGA-
TION SYSTEM)
Press the STATUS button to display the climate
control system status on the navigation system
screen. For additional information, please refer to
the separate LEAF Navigation System Owner’s
Manual.
NOTE:
•If the READY to drive indicator light is illumi-
nated and the EVSE (Electric Vehicle 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 operating. However, the fan will
continue to operate. If you want to turn on
climate control 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 inter-
rupted due to an electrical outage, etc., the
system will operate in the following ways.
– If it occurs while charging is being per- formed:– The climate control system will stop
once. If the power supply is restored
within approximately 5 minutes, the
climate control system will restart.
However, if more than 5 minutes
have elapsed, the climate control
system will not restart.
– If it occurs after charging has finished: –The climate control system will stop.
OPERATING TIPS
• The automatic climate control is equipped with
sensors as illustrated. The sensors
AandB
help maintain a constant temperature. Do not
put anything on or around these sensors.
• Power consumption of the climate control sys- tem varies depending on the outside tempera-
ture and the temperature set for the climate
control system. Power consumption increases if
the interior temperature is cooled down too
much in summer or if it warmed up too much in
winter. This will result in a reduced driving
range.

To turn the system off
To turn off the climate control, press the Climate
control system OFF button. The same operating
mode (Heater or A/C) that was active when the
system is turned off is active when system is
turned back on.
Climate Ctrl. Timer
While the charger is connected to the vehicle,
this function pre-heats or pre-cools the passen-
ger compartment of the vehicle to the tempera-
ture set by default before driving. This helps
reduce power consumption from the Li-ion bat-
tery.
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 so the vehicle compartment will be
cooled/heated to the temperature set by default
by the registered departure time. It is therefore
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. 1. Push the
switchAon the left side of
the combination meter panel.
2. Push the
switchBuntil “Climate Ctrl.
Timer” is highlighted on the vehicle informa-
tion display and then push the

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.

WARNING
• 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. They
could accidentally injure themselves or
others through inadvertent operation
of the vehicle. Also, 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.
• Properly secure all cargo with ropes or straps to help prevent it from sliding or
shifting. Do not place cargo higher
than the seatbacks. In a sudden stop or
collision, unsecured cargo could cause
personal injury.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM (TPMS)
Each tire, including the spare (if provided) ,
should be checked monthly when cold and in-
flated to the inflation pressure recommended by
the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard
or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has
tires of a different size than the size indicated on
the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation
pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been
equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale
when one or more of your tires is significantly
under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire
pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and
check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate
them to the proper pressure. Driving on a signifi-
cantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to over-
heat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation
also reduces power efficiency and tire tread life,
and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stop-
ping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for
proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’s
responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure,
even if under-inflation has not reached the level to
trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure
telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a
TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate when the
system is not operating properly. The TPMS mal-
function indicator is combined with the low tire
pressure telltale. When the system detects a
malfunction, the telltale will flash for approxi-
mately one minute and then remain continuously
illuminated. This sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the mal-
function exists. When the malfunction indicator is
illuminated, the system may not be able to detect
or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS
malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons,
including the installation of replacement or alter-
nate tires or wheels on the vehicle that prevent
the TPMS from functioning properly. Always
check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replac-
ing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle to
ensure that the replacement or alternate tires and
wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function
properly.
Additional information
• The TPMS will activate only when the vehicle is
driven at speeds above 16 mph (25 km/h) . Also,
this system may not detect a sudden drop in tire
pressure (for example, a flat tire while driving) .
• The low tire pressure warning light does not automatically turn off when the tire pressure is
adjusted. After the tire is inflated to the recom-
mended pressure, the vehicle must be driven at
speeds above 16 mph (25 km/h) to active the
TPMS and turn off the low tire pressure warning
PRECAUTIONS WHEN STARTING
AND DRIVING

light. Use a tire pressure gauge to check the tire
pressure.
• The CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning also appears on the vehicle information display when
the low tire pressure warning light is illuminated
and low tire pressure is detected. The CHECK
TIRE PRESSURE warning turns off when the
low tire pressure warning light turns off.
• The CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning ap- pears each time the power switch is placed in
the ON position as long as the low tire pressure
warning light remains illuminated.
• The CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning does not appear if the low tire pressure warning light
illuminates to indicate a TPMS malfunction.
• Tire pressure rises and falls depending on the heat caused by operation of the vehicle and the
outside temperature. Do not reduce the tire
pressure after driving because the tire pressure
rises after driving. Low outside temperature can
lower the temperature of the air inside the tire,
which can cause a lower tire inflation pressure.
This may cause the low tire pressure warning
light to illuminate. If the warning light illuminates
in low ambient temperature, check the tire pres-
sure for all four tires. • The pressure of all tires can also be checked on
the display screen. The order of the tire pres-
sure figures displayed on the screen does not
correspond with the actual order of the tire
position.
For additional information, refer to “Low tire pres-
sure warning light” in the “Instruments and con-
trols” section and “Tire Pressure Monitoring Sys-
tem (TPMS)” in the “In case of emergency”
section of this manual.
WARNING
• Radio waves could adversely affect electric medical equipment. Those
who use a pacemaker should contact
the electric medical equipment manu-
facturer for the possible influences be-
fore use.
• If the low tire pressure warning light illuminates while driving, avoid sud-
den steering maneuvers or abrupt
braking, reduce vehicle speed, pull off
the road to a safe location and stop the
vehicle as soon as possible. Driving
with under-inflated tires may perma-
nently damage the tires and increase
the likelihood of tire failure. Serious
vehicle damage could occur and may lead to an accident and could result in
serious personal injury. Check the tire
pressure for all four tires. Adjust the
tire pressure to the recommended
COLD tire pressure shown on the Tire
and Loading Information label to turn
the low tire pressure warning light
OFF. If the tire is flat, repair it as soon
as possible. (For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Flat tire” in the “In case
of emergency” section of this manual.)
• When replacing a wheel without the TPMS such as the spare tire, TPMS will
not function and the tow tire pressure
warning light will flash for approxi-
mately 1 minute. The light will remain
on after 1 minute. Have your tires re-
placed and/or TPMS system reset as
soon as possible. It is recommended
that you visit a NISSAN certified LEAF
dealer for this service.
• Replacing tires with those not origi- nally specified by NISSAN could affect
the proper operation of the TPMS.
• Do not inject any tire liquid or aerosol tire sealant into the tires, as this may
cause a malfunction of the tire pres-
sure sensors.
Starting and driving5-3

CAUTION
• The TPMS may not function properly when the wheels are equipped with
tire chains or the wheels are buried in
snow.
• Do not place metalized film or any metal parts (antenna, etc.) on the win-
dows. This may cause poor reception
of the signals from the tire pressure
sensors, and the TPMS will not func-
tion properly.
Some devices and transmitters may temporarily
interfere with the operation of the TPMS and
cause the low tire pressure warning light to illu-
minate. Some examples are:
• Facilities or electric devices using similar radio frequencies that are near the vehicle.
• If a transmitter set to similar frequencies is being used in or near the vehicle.
• If a computer (or similar equipment) or a DC/AC converter is being used in or near the vehicle.
• The low tire pressure warning light may illumi- nate in the following cases: – If the vehicle is equipped with a wheel and tire without TPMS.
– If the TPMS has been replaced and the ID has not been registered. – If the wheel is not originally specified by
NISSAN.
