Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-25

NOTE:
• A series of operation sounds may beheard immediately af ter climate con-
trol ON/OFF operation. This is not a
malfunction.
• 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 ve-
hicle when climate control is operating.
DISPLAYING CLIMATE CONTROL
SYSTEM STATUS SCREEN (models
with navigation system)
The climate control system status screen
can be displayed as a widget. For details of
the widget, refer to the NissanConnect®
Manual.
NOTE:
• If the READY to drive indicator light isilluminated 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 position, if the power supply from the
EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equip-
ment) is interrupted due to an electri-
cal outage, etc., the system will operate
in the following ways.– If it occurs while charging is being performed:
The climate control system will stop
once. If the power supply is restored
within approximately 5 minutes, the
climate control system will restart.
However, if more than 5 minutes have
elapsed, the climate control system
will not restart.
–
If it occurs af ter charging has finished:The climate control system will stop.
OPERATING TIPS
• The automatic climate control is
equipped with sensors as illustrated. The
sensors
OAandOBhelp maintain a con-
stant temperature. Do not put anything
on or around these sensors.
• Power consumption of the climate con- trol system varies depending on the out-
side temperature and the temperature
set for the climate control system. Power
consumption increases if the interior
temperature is cooled down too much in
summer or if it warmed up too much in
winter. This will result in a reduced driving
range.

•When using a wheel without the
TPMS such as the spare tire, the TPMS
will not function and the low tire
pressure warning light will flash for
approximately 1 minute. The light will
remain on af ter 1 minute. Have your
tires replaced and/or TPMS system
reset as soon as possible. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN cer-
tified LEAF dealer for this service.
• Replacing tires with those not origi-
nally specified by NISSAN could af-
fect the proper operation of the
TPMS.
• Do not inject any tire liquid or aerosol
tire sealant into the tires, as this may
cause a malfunction of the tire pres-
sure sensors.
CAUTION
• The TPMS may not function properly
when the wheels are equipped with
tire chains or the wheels are buried in
snow. •
Do not place metalized film or any
metal parts (antenna, etc.) on the
windows. This may cause poor re-
ception of the signals from the tire
pressure sensors, and the TPMS will
not function properly.
Some devices and transmitters may tem-
porarily interfere with the operation of the
TPMS and cause the low tire pressure
warning light to illuminate. Some examples
are:
• Facilities or electric devices using similar radio frequencies that are near the
vehicle.
• If a transmitter set to similar frequencies is being used in or near the vehicle.
• If a computer (or similar equipment) or a DC/AC converter is being used in or near
the vehicle.
The low tire pressure warning light may
illuminate in the following cases:
• If the vehicle is equipped with a wheel and tire without TPMS.
• If the TPMS has been replaced and the ID has not been registered.
• If the wheel is not originally specified by NISSAN. FCC Notice:
