2019 NISSAN LEAF air condition

• If the charge connector is connected tothe 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. Place the
power switch in the off position to begin
charging. Turn on the desired climate con-
trol function.
• For normal charge, the climate control system is operative when charging opera-
tion is complete. For quick charge how-
ever, the climate control system stops op-
erating when charging operation stops.
• The climate control timer or remote cli- mate control (for models with Navigation
System) may fog up windows depending
on the set temperature or outside
temperature.
• When turning on the seat heater (if so equipped) switch prior to operating the
climate control timer or the remote cli-
mate control (for models with Navigation
System), the seat heater will also turn on
automatically when the outside tempera-
tureislow.IN-CABIN MICROFILTER
The climate control system is equipped
with an in-cabin microfilter which collects
dirt, dust etc. To make sure the air condi-
tioner heats defogs, and ventilates effi-
ciently, replace the filter regularly. To re-
place 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 win-
dows fog up easily when operating the
climate control system.

CLIMATE CTRL. TIMER
This function pre-heats or pre-cools the
passenger compartment of the vehicle to
the temperature before driving. This helps
reduce power consumption from the Li-ion
battery.
The Climate Ctrl. Timer operates the air con-
ditioner using power from the charger or the
Li-ion battery. While the charging connector
is connected to the vehicle, electric power
from the Li-ion battery is not used.
The Climate Ctrl. Timer function allows two
timer settings.
Once the Climate Ctrl. Timer is set, it will
complete air conditioning by the time that
is set. It is not necessary to set the Climate
Ctrl. Timer every day.
WARNING
Even if the Climate Ctrl. Timer is set, the
temperature in the passenger com-
partment may become high or low if
the system automatically stops. Do not
leave children or adults who would
normally require the support of others
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 possibly fatal injuries to
people or animals. Also on cold days,
temperature in a vehicle could become
low enough to cause severe or pos-
sible fatal injuries to people or animals.

the vehicle. When the “Battery Operation
OK” is turned on and the charging connec-
tor is not connected to the vehicle, the Cli-
mate Ctrl. Timer will activate for 15 minutes.
When the outside temperature is high, the
interior temperature may not reach the set
temperature within the 15 minutes.
Turn "Battery Operation OK" to OFF when it
is not necessary to operate air condition-
ing timer in order to prevent Li-ion battery
from discharging.
For models without Navigation System, the
Climate Ctrl. Timer operates repeatedly ev-
ery day once it is turned on.
Operating tips for using Climate
Ctrl. Timer
• The Climate Ctrl. Timer will only start when
the power switch is in the LOCK/OFF or
ACC position.
• To turn off the Climate Ctrl. Timer function, turn off the “Climate Ctrl. Timer1” and
"Climate Ctrl. Timer2" setting in the video
information display using the
button on the steering wheel. 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. Timer 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 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 re- mote climate control in an environment
where the temperature is low may de-
crease the rate of battery charge.
• Timer setting can also be changed while Climate Ctrl. Timer is operated. When the
power position is switched to OFF, the air
conditioner starts or enters waiting mode
depending on the new timer settings.
• When the difference in temperature be- tween the air conditioner setting tem-
perature and the temperature outside the
vehicle is large, the temperature inside the
vehicle may not be maintained at the set-
ting temperature.
