• Even if the remote climate control isset, the temperature in the passen-
ger room may become high if the
system automatically stops. Do not
leave children or adults who would
normally require the support of oth-
ers alone in your vehicle. Pets should
not be lef t alone either. On hot,
sunny days, temperatures in a
closed vehicle could quickly become
high enough to cause severe or pos-
sibly fatal injuries to people or ani-
mals.
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 cel- lular phone coverage area.
– The cellular phone must be located in an area with cellular phone cover-
age.
– The computer must be connected to the internet.
• Some cellular phones are not compat-
ible with this system and cannot be
used to check the Li-ion battery charg-
ing status. Confirm this beforehand.
Operating tips
• When the charge connector is connected,
the climate control operates using electric
power. When the charge connector is dis-
connected from the vehicle, the climate
control operates using vehicle battery
electric power.
• The climate control can be operated for a maximum 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
LOCK/OFF or ACC position.
• Remote climate control operation is not available 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 temperature 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 110 – 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, remote climate control opera-
tion 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 oper-
ates in climate control priority 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 con- nected and charging is not performed, re-
mote climate control operation starts us-
ing the battery electric power of the
vehicle.

SATELLITE RADIO RECEPTION
When the satellite radio is used for the first
time or the battery has been replaced, the
satellite radio may not work properly. This
is not a malfunction. Wait more than
10 minutes with satellite radio ON and the
vehicle outside of any metal or large build-
ing for satellite radio to receive all of the
necessary data.
No satellite radio reception is available and
“NO SAT” is displayed when the SAT band
option is selected unless optional satellite
receiver and antenna are installed and a
SiriusXM® Satellite Radio service subscrip-
tion is active. Satellite radio is not available
in Alaska, Hawaii and Guam.
Satellite radio performance may be af-
fected if cargo carried on the roof blocks
the satellite radio signal.
If possible, do not put cargo over the satel-
lite antenna.
A build-up of ice on the satellite radio an-
tenna can affect satellite radio perfor-
mance. Remove the ice to restore satellite
radio reception.
AUDIO OPERATION PRECAUTIONS

CAUTION
• Do not force a compact disc into the CD insert slot. This could damage
the CD and/or CD player.
• Trying to load a CD with the CD door closed could damage the CD and/or
CD player.
• Only one CD can be loaded into the CD player at a time.
• Only use high quality 4.7 in (12 cm)
round discs that have the “COMPACT
disc DIGITAL AUDIO” logo on the disc or
packaging.
• During cold weather or rainy days, the

midity. If this occurs, remove the CD and
dehumidif y or ventilate the player
completely.
• The player may skip while driving on
rough roads.
• The CD player sometimes cannot func-
tion when the compartment tempera-
ture is extremely high or low. Decrease/
increase the temperature before use.
• Do not expose the CD to direct sunlight.

Bluetooth® streaming audio
• Some Bluetooth® audio devices may notbe recognized by the in-vehicle audio
system.
•
It is necessary to set up the wireless con-
nection between a compatible Bluetooth®
audio device and the in-vehicle Bluetooth®
module before using the Bluetooth® audio.
• Operating procedure of the Bluetooth® audio will vary depending on the devices.
Make sure how to operate your audio de-
vice before using it with this system.
• The Bluetooth® audio may be stopped under the following conditions: – Receiving a call on the Hands-FreePhone System.
– Checking the connection to the hands- free phone. • Do not place the Bluetooth® audio device
in an area surrounded by metal or far
away from the in-vehicle Bluetooth® mod-
ule to prevent tone quality degradation
and wireless connection disruption.
• While an audio device is connected through the Bluetooth® wireless connec-
tion, the battery power of the device may
discharge quicker than usual.
• This system supports the Bluetooth® Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP, AVRCP).

When installing a CB, ham radio or car
phone in your vehicle, be sure to observe
the following precautions; otherwise, the
new equipment may adversely affect the
EV control system and other electronic
parts.
WARNING
• A cellular phone should not be used for any purpose while driving so full
attention may be given to vehicle
operation. Some jurisdictions pro-
hibit the use of cellular phones while
driving.
• If you must make a call while your vehicle is in motion, the hands free
cellular phone operational mode is
highly recommended. Exercise ex-
treme caution at all times so full at-
tention may be given to vehicle op-
eration.
• If you are unable to devote full at- tention to vehicle operation while
talking on the phone, pull off the
road to a safe location and stop your
vehicle.
CAUTION
• Keep the antenna as far away as possible from the electronic control
modules.
• Keep the antenna wire more than 8 in (20 cm) away from the electronic
control system harnesses. Do not
route the antenna wire next to any
harness.
• Adjust the antenna standing-wave ratio as recommended by the manu-
facturer.
• Connect the ground wire from the CB radio chassis to the body.
• For additional information, it is rec- ommended that you visit a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer.
WARNING
• Use a phone af ter stopping your ve- hicle in a safe location. If you have to
use a phone while driving, exercise
extreme caution at all times so full
attention may be given to vehicle
operation.
