2019 NISSAN LEAF Leaf e+

AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM
REFRIGERANT AND LUBRICANT
RECOMMENDATIONS
The air conditioning system in your
NISSAN vehicle must be charged with the
refrigerant, HFC-134a (R-134a), and the
compressor oil, ND-OIL11 (with heater
pump), AE10 (without heater pump) or
the equivalent.
CAUTION
The use of any other refrigerant or oil
will cause severe damage to the air
conditioning system and will require
the replacement of all air conditioner
system components. The refrigerant, HFC-134a (R-134a), in your
NISSAN vehicle will not harm the earth’s
ozone layer. Although this refrigerant does
not affect the earth’s atmosphere, certain
governmental regulations require the re-
covery and recycling of any refrigerant dur-
ing automotive air conditioning system
service. A NISSAN certified LEAF dealer has
the trained technicians and equipment
needed to recover and recycle your air con-
ditioning system refrigerant.
It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer when servicing your
air conditioning system.

In addition to Event Data Recorders (EDRs)
mentioned in this Owner's Manual, this ve-
hicle is equipped with electronic modules
that monitor, control and record data con-
cerning various vehicle systems, including
the motor, batteries, braking and electrical
systems. Other electronic modules record
information concerning driving conditions,
including idling, braking, acceleration, trip
and other related data, information about
your use of the car and its features such as
air conditioner or headlight usage, diag-
nostic trouble codes, vehicle charging, ve-
hicle speed, direction and/or location.
Some of this data is stored by the vehicle for
use during vehicle servicing. Other data con-
cerning your vehicle's operation and perfor-
mance is wirelessly transmitted by cellular
connection through the vehicle onboard
telematics system upon vehicle start-up or
at other intervals to NISSAN. This data may
be used by NISSAN for various purposes, in-
cluding: to provide you with NissanConnect®
EV & Services or NissanConnect® Services
(For additional information, refer to

State and provincial laws allow access and
use of data recorded by vehicle devices
with the consent of the vehicle owner or
pursuant to subscription agreement. While
you are not required to allow such access
and use, if you do not so agree NISSAN may
be unable under applicable law to activate
the vehicle telematics system in your ve-
hicle, and certain features of your vehicle
which are dependent on vehicle telematics
will not operate as intended or designed.
These may include features such as auto-
matic charging station map updates, re-mote battery state of charge check, charg-
ing complete notice, remote plug in
reminder, remote charging on, remote cli-
mate control on, drive route planning, driv-
ing tips to improve range, driving history,
billing simulation, ECO ranking, ECO forest,
maintenance reminders, etc. Other fea-
tures that may be developed and offered
by NISSAN in the future may also not func-
tion without telematics data transmission.

NissanConnect® Services telematics ser-
vices are provided by NISSAN pursuant to a
subscription services agreement covering
your vehicle. This agreement is necessary for
all owners. This agreement, and an explana-
tion of its terms and conditions, can be found
at the NISSAN Owner’s Portal webpage. Fur-
ther, the operator of the vehicle must also
touch [OK] on the Navi screen to indicate
assent each time he or she starts the car. If
you decide at any time that you do not want
your vehicle to transmit data to NISSAN, you
can deactivate the telematics account asso-
ciated with this vehicle by canceling the sub-
scription services agreement by visiting the
NISSAN Owner’s Portal Webpage or calling
NISSAN at 1-877-NOGASEV (1-877-664-2738). The service can be reactivated later upon

tively, you can turn off the transmission of
certain categories of data through the use of
settings found in the navigation system un-
der Menu, NissanConnect® EV & Services or

tion Sharing with NISSAN. Note, turning off
“Vehicle Information Sharing with NISSAN”
will only disable the automatic sharing of
information at vehicle start-up. Certain cat-
egories of data may still be transmitted if
vehicle telematics features are accessed ei-
ther in the vehicle or remotely.
Your agreement to the transmission and use
of data by NISSAN can be provided in various
ways. The vehicle is equipped with a “pop up”
screen on the vehicle navigation system that
will ask for your consent to this data transfer.

opensource/This vehicle is equipped with an Event Data
Recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an
EDR is to record, in certain crash or near
crash-like situations, such as an air bag
deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data
that will assist in understanding how a ve-
hicle’s systems performed. The EDR is de-
signed to record data related to vehicle dy-
namics and safety systems for a short
period of time, typically 30 seconds or less.
The EDR in this vehicle is designed to re-
cord such data as:
• How various systems in your vehicle were
operating;
• Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened;
• How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,
• How fast the vehicle was traveling.
• Sounds are not recorded.
These data can help provide a better un-
derstanding of the circumstances in which
crashes and injuries occur.NOTE:
EDR data are recorded by your vehicle
only if a nontrivial crash situation occurs;
no data are recorded by the EDR under
normal driving conditions and no per-
sonal data (for example, name, gender,
age and crash location) are recorded.
However, other parties, such as law en-
forcement, could combine the EDR data
with the type of personally identif ying
data routinely acquired during a crash
investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special
equipment is required and access to the
vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition
to the vehicle manufacturer and NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer, other parties, such
as law enforcement, that have the spe-
cial equipment, can read the information
if they have access to the vehicle or the
EDR. EDR data will only be accessed with
the consent of the vehicle owner or les-
see or as otherwise required or permit-
ted by law.

ADDITIONAL DATA RECORDING
(ON VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH
OPTIONAL PROPILOT ASSIST)
If your vehicle is equipped with the optional
ProPILOT Assist, it will also be equipped
with supplemental data recording function
intended to assist in understanding how
ProPILOT Assist performs in certain non-
trival crash or near-crash scenarios. Spe-
cifically, supplemental recording is de-
signed to capture the following:
• Driver operational status of the accelera-tor, brakes, steering, etc.
• Detection status of a vehicle ahead and lane markers
• Vehicle information including distance to vehicle ahead and lateral position
• Information on the operation of the ProPI- LOT Assist and other crash avoidance
features
• ProPILOT Assist malfunction diagnosis information
• External images from the multi-sensing front camera (Available only when the SRS
air bag or IEB system is activated) The ProPILOT Assist does not record con-
versations, sounds or images of the inside
of the vehicle.
To read this supplemental data, special
equipment is required and access to the
vehicle or the recording unit is needed. This
supplemental data will only be accessed
with the consent of the vehicle owner or
lessee or as otherwise required or permit-
ted by law. If downloaded, NISSAN and third
parties entrusted by
NISSAN may use the data recorded for the
purpose of improving NISSAN’s vehicle
safety performance.
NISSAN and third parties entrusted by
NISSAN will not disclose/provide the re-
corded data to a third party except:
- With the consent of the vehicle owner or
with the consent of the lessee
- In response to an official request from law
enforcement, court order, governmental
agency, or other legally enforceable request.
- For research purposes af ter the data is
modified such that it is no longer tied to a
specific vehicle or vehicle owner (anony-
mized) Genuine NISSAN Service Manuals for this
model year and prior can be purchased. A
Genuine NISSAN Service Manual is the best
source of service and repair information for
your vehicle. This manual is the same one
