WARNING
• The air conditioning cooling func- tion operates only when the power
switch is in the ON position or when
the READY to drive indicator light is
ON.
• Do not leave children or adults who would normally require the assis-
tance of others alone in your vehicle.
Pets should also not be lef t alone.
They could accidentally injure them-
selves or others through inadver-
tent operation of the vehicle. Also,
on hot, sunny days, temperatures in
a closed vehicle could quickly be-
come high enough to causes severe
or possibly fatal injuries to people or
animals. • Do not use the recirculation mode
for long periods as it may cause the
interior air to become stale and the
windows to fog up.
NOTE:
•Odors from inside and outside the ve-
hicle can build up in the air conditioner
unit. Odor can enter the passenger
compartment through the vents.
• When parking, set the heater or air con-
ditioner controls to turn off air recircu-
lation to allow fresh air into the passen-
ger compartment. 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 system 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 func-
tion and using the remote climate control
function.
These functions operate in the following
conditions.

NOTE:
•A series of operation sounds may be
heard immediately af ter climate con-
trol ON/OFF operation. This is not a mal-
function.
• Compressor and motor fan may sud-
denly start to operate during charging
operation. This is not a malfunction.
• Condensation forms inside the air con-
ditioning unit when the air conditioner
is running, and is safely discharged un-
derneath 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 NAVIGATION SYSTEM)
For models with 40 kWh battery:
Touch the “Info” key on the display screen,
then touch the “Climate Control and Audio”
key to display the climate control system
status on the display screen. For additional
information, please refer to the separate
“NissanConnect® Manual (for Leaf )”. For models with 62 kWh battery:
The climate control system status screen
can be displayed as a widget. For details of
the widget, refer to the NissanConnect®
Manual (for Leaf ).
NOTE:
•
If the READY to drive indicator light is
illuminated and the EVSE (Electric Ve-
hicle 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
af ter confirming that the vehicle has
started charging.
• When the power switch is in the ON po-
sition, if the power supply from the EVSE
(Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment) is
interrupted due to an electrical outage,
etc., the system will operate in the fol-
lowing ways.

• 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.

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.
