3-14Pre-driving checks and adjustments

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.

NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM
The NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System
will not allow the power switch to be placed
in the READY to drive position without the
use of the registered key.
If the power switch fails to place the vehicle
into the READY to drive position using the
registered key, it may be due to interfer-
ence caused by another registered key, an
automated toll road device or automated
payment device on the key ring. Restart the
EV system using the following procedure:
1. Leave the power switch in the ON posi-
tion for approximately 5 seconds.
2. Place the power switch in the OFF posi- tion and wait approximately 10 seconds. 3. Repeat steps 1 and 2 again.
4. Place the power switch in the READY to
drive position while holding the device
(which may have caused the interfer-
ence) separate from the registered key.
If this procedure allows the power
switch to be placed in the READY to drive
mode, NISSAN recommends placing the
registered key on a separate key ring to
avoid interference from other devices.
