HOW TO PARK WITH PREDICTED
COURSE LINES (MODELS WITH
NAVIGATION)
WARNING
• If the tires are replaced with different sized tires, the predicted course lines
may be displayed incorrectly.
• On a snow-covered or slippery road, there may be a difference between the
predicted course line and the actual
course line.
• If the battery is disconnected or be- comes discharged, the predicted
course lines may be displayed incor-
rectly. If this occurs, please perform
the following procedures:
- Turn the steering wheel from lock to
lock while the EV (electric vehicle) sys-
tem is running.
- Drive the vehicle on a straight road
for more than 5 minutes.
• When the steering wheel is turned with the power switch in the ACC position,
the predicted course lines may be dis-
played incorrectly. 1. Visually check that the parking space is safe
before parking your vehicle.
2. The rear view of the vehicle is displayed on the screen
Awhen the shift lever is moved to the
R (Reverse) position.

3. Slowly back up the vehicle adjusting thesteering wheel so that the predicted course
lines
Benter the parking spaceC.
4. Maneuver the steering wheel to make the vehicle width guide lines
Dparallel to the
parking space
Cwhile referring to the pre-
dicted course lines.
5. When the vehicle is parked in the space com- pletely, move the shift lever to the P (Park)
position and apply the parking brake.

REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM
LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations for RearView Monitor. Failure to oper-
ate the vehicle in accordance with these system limitations could result in seri- ous injury or death. • The system cannot completely elimi-
nate blind spots and may not show
every object.
• Underneath the bumper and the corner areas of the bumper cannot be viewed
on the RearView Monitor because of
its monitoring range limitation. The
system will not show small objects be-
low the bumper, and may not show
objects close to the bumper or on the
ground.
• Objects viewed in the RearView Moni- tor differ from actual distance because
a wide-angle lens is used.
• Objects in the RearView Monitor will appear visually opposite compared to
when viewed in the rearview and out-
side mirrors.
• Use the displayed lines as a reference. The lines are highly affected by the
number of occupants, fuel level, ve-
hicle position, road conditions and
road grade.
• Make sure that the rear hatch is se- curely closed when backing up.
• Do not put anything on the rearview camera. The rearview camera is in-
stalled above the license plate.
Models with navigation
Display screen, heater, air conditioner, audio and phone systems4-9
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 or air condi-
tioner controls to turn off air recirculation
to allow fresh air into the passenger com-
partment. 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.
Power switch position
LOCK/OFFACCON READY to drive
Fan --Available Available
Heater and air conditioner --Available*1 Available
Timer (Climate Ctrl. Timer) Available*2Available*2- -
Remote control*3 AvailableAvailable- -
*1: The climate control system will only start when charging is being performed. After charging is complete, it will continue to operate if the EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment)
is connected.
*2: The EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment) must be connected.
*3: Models with navigation system.
NOTE:
• A series of operation sounds may be
heard immediately after climate control
ON/OFF operation. This is not a malfunc-
tion.
• Compressor and motor fan may suddenly
start to operate during charging opera-
tion. This is not a malfunction. •
Condensation forms inside the air condi-
tioning unit when the air conditioner is
running, and is safely discharged under-
neath your vehicle. Traces of water on the
ground are therefore normal. Water may
drop underneath the vehicle when climate
control is operating.

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.
4-24Display screen, heater, air conditioner, audio and phone systems
• Using the AUTO mode will help reduce thepower consumption of the climate control.
• When the AUTO button is pressed, the AUTO indicator illuminates. The
HEAT button
indicator or the A/C button indicator illuminates
according to the operation of the climate control
system.
• If any of the MODE, A/C,
HEAT, fan speed
control
,front defroster,
intake air control is pushed when the AUTO
indicator illuminates, the AUTO indicator will be
turned off. • 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.
• For normal charge, the climate control system is operative when charging operation is complete.
For quick charge however, the climate control
system stops operating when charging opera-
tion stops.
• The climate control timer or remote climate con- trol (for models with Navigation) may fog up
windows depending on the set temperature (for
models with Navigation) or outside
temperature.
• When turning on the seat heater switch prior to operating the climate control timer or the remote
climate control (for models with Navigation) , the
seat heater will also turn on automatically when
the outside temperature is low.
IN-CABIN MICROFILTER
The climate control system is equipped with an
in-cabin microfilter which collects dirt, dust etc.
To make sure the air conditioner heats defogs,
and ventilates efficiently, replace the filter regu-
larly. To replace the filter, it is recommended that
you visit 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.
