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.

Audio main operation:
To switch to the Bluetooth® audio mode, press
the MEDIA button repeatedly until the

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

To shut off the EV system in an emergency situ-
ation while driving, perform the following proce-
dure.
• Rapidly push the power switch three consecu-tive times in less than 1.5 seconds, or
• Push and hold the power switch for more than 2 seconds.TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM (TPMS)
This vehicle is equipped with TPMS. It monitors
tire pressure of all tires. When the low tire pres-
sure warning light is lit, and the CHECK TIRE
PRESSURE warning appears on the vehicle in-
formation display, one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated. If the vehicle is being
driven with low tire pressure, the TPMS will acti-
vate and warn you of it by the low tire pressure
warning light. This system will activate only when
the vehicle is driven at speeds above 16 mph
(25 km/h) . For additional information, refer to
“Warning lights, indicator lights and audible re-
minders” in the “Instruments and controls” sec-
tion and “Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)” in the “Starting and driving” 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 underinflated 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 light still illuminates while
driving after adjusting the tire pres-
sure, a tire may be flat. If you have a
flat tire, repair it as soon as possible.
• When replacing a wheel without the TPMS such as the spare tire, TPMS will
not function and the low 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 these services.
