Automatic operation (AUTO)

The AUTO mode may be used year-round as the

system automatically controls constant tempera-

ture, air flow distribution and fan speed.

To turn off the climate control, press the A/C-

Heater ON·OFF button.

The same operating mode (Heater or A/C) that

was active when the system is turned off is active

when system is turned back on.

While operating the climate control in the AUTO

mode, selecting any other climate control button

de-activates the AUTO mode and activates

manual mode.

Cooling and/or dehumidified heating:

The dehumidified heating mode can be used to

keep the windows from fogging. In this mode, the

heat pump compressor is used in A/C mode for

dehumidifying the air instead of heating it. The

PTC heater is also used in conjunction to heat the

air. This mode will increase energy consumption

and therefore reduce range.

charge connector is connected to a 120V

outlet.

• While the battery is being charged, the Climate

Ctrl. Timer cannot be operated until the Li-ion

battery available charge gauge reached the full

mark. When the battery is not being charged,

the Climate Ctrl. Timer can be operated, even if

the Li-ion battery available charge gauge has

not reached the full mark.

• While the Climate Ctrl. Timer operates, the Cli-

mate Ctrl. Timer indicator and the charging sta-

tus indicator lights flash. If the Climate Ctrl.

Timer is set to activate, the Climate Ctrl. Timer

indicator illuminates.

8. The indicator of “Timer 1” illuminates after the

Climate Ctrl. Timer is set. Use the same pro-

cedure to set the Timer 2 setting.

• If the timer charge function and the Climate Ctrl.

Timer are in operation at the same time due to

an overlap of the timer settings, either function

can be set to be preferentially provided with

electric power. For the details of “Timer Priority”

settings, refer to separate LEAF Navigation

System Owner’s Manual.

• When the climate control is set on first priority,

the Climate Ctrl. Timer works regardless of the

remaining battery energy.

9. Place the power switch to the OFF position,

and then connect the charge connector to the

vehicle.

• If the Climate Ctrl. Timer starts its operation

while the vehicle is being charged, the charging

time will be prolonged.

Operation tips:

• Operating the Climate Ctrl. Timer or remote

climate control in an environment with low tem-

perature may decrease the rate of battery

charge.

• The Climate Ctrl. Timer will only start when the

power switch is in the “OFF” position. Always

turn the power switch to the “OFF”position after

the Climate Ctrl. Timer is set.

• The temperature in the passenger compartment

may not be comfortable if entering the vehicle

too soon before or too long after the scheduled

time of departure.

• The Climate Ctrl. Timer settings cannot be

modified while it is operating. If timer settings

are modified while the Climate Ctrl. Timer is

operating, these changes will be reflected the

next time the Climate Ctrl. Timer operates.

• Touch “Timer 1” or “Timer 2” to turn off the

Climate Ctrl. Timer function. After this operation

has been performed, the indicator turns off and

the Climate Ctrl. Timer function will be turned

off. The start and stop time settings are not

deleted even if the Climate Ctrl. Timer function

is turned off.

• Air conditioning is limited to the capacity of the

electric power when the charge connector is

connected. Therefore, the temperature may not

reach the factory default setting due to limita-

tions in air conditioning performance, if ambient

temperature is excessively high or low, or if the

• When charging is set as the first priority, the

Climate Ctrl. Timer does not start until 10 seg-

ments of the Li-ion battery available charge

gauge are illuminated.

Even if the remote climate control is

set, the temperature in the passenger

room may become high if the system

automatically stops. Do not leave chil-

dren or adults who would normally re-

quire the support of others alone in

your vehicle. Pets should not be left

alone either. On hot, sunny days, tem-

peratures in a closed vehicle could

quickly become high enough to cause

severe or possibly fatal injuries to

people or animals.

When operation is started, or at the set start time,

the NISSAN CARWINGS Data Center accesses

the vehicle. When the vehicle receives a com-

mand for remote operation, the climate control

immediately turns ON and operates for the speci-

fied period of time. Confirmation of the ON/OFF

of the climate control operation can be checked

by accessing the website or by e-mail.

• When the climate control is set as the first

priority, the climate control system will be turned

on as scheduled by the Climate Ctrl. Timer

regardless of the remaining battery energy.

• Even when the climate control is set as the first

priority, the climate control system will be turned

off when the climate control spends more elec-

tric than the charging Li-ion battery.

Establishing the CARWINGS™ service is neces-

sary before using the service. See LEAF Naviga-

tion System Owner’s Manual.

NOTE:

• The Li-ion battery may not charge or may even

become discharged if the Climate Ctrl. Timer or

remote climate control is used in low ambient

temperatures.

• To check the Li-ion battery charging status

using an internet enabled smart phone or

personal computer.

WARNING

•

Radio waves could adversely affect

electric medical equipment. For more

information, contact your electric

medical equipment manufacturer for

the possible effect on pacemakers be-

fore using the remote climate control.

– The vehicle must be located in a cellu-

lar phone coverage area.

– The cellular phone must be located in

an area with cellular phone coverage.

– The computer must be connected to

the internet.

Remote climate control

This vehicle incorporates a communication de-

vice that is called a TCU (Telematics Communi-

cation Unit). The communication connection be-

tween this unit and NISSAN CARWINGS Data

Center allows for various remote function ser-

vices.

• Some cellular phones are not compatible

with this system and cannot be used to

check the Li-ion battery charging status.

Confirm this beforehand.

Even when away from the vehicle, climate control

can be started by accessing the NISSAN CAR-

4-26 Display screen, heater, air conditioner, audio and phone systems

to performance of the air conditioning being

limited, if the outside temperature is excessively

high or low, or if the charge connector is con-

nected to a 120V outlet.

Operating tips:

• When the charge connector is connected, the

climate control operates using electric power.

When the charge connector is disconnected

from the vehicle, the climate control operates

using vehicle battery electric power.

• If the power switch is in the ON position or the

charge connector is disconnected, while the

remote climate control is being operated, re-

mote climate control operation is automatically

stopped and an e-mail is sent.

• The climate control can be operated for a maxi-

mum of 2 hours when the charge connector is

connected to the vehicle, or a maximum of 15

minutes when the charge connector is

disconnected.

• If remote climate control operation is started

while the vehicle is in normal charge mode, the

climate control operates in climate control pri-

ority mode and charging is continued.

• The remote climate control will only start to

operate when the power switch is in the OFF

position. Be sure to check that the power switch

is in the OFF position.

• If remote climate control operation is started

and charging is stopped while the vehicle is in

quick charge mode, climate control operation is

also stopped.

• Remote climate control operation is not avail-

able when the vehicle is in an area of cellular

communication range.

• If the quick charge connector is connected and

charging is not performed, remote climate con-

trol operation starts using the battery electric

power of the vehicle.

• Communication becomes unavailable when the

vehicle is not used for two weeks or more.

When the power switch is placed in the ON

position, communication with the NISSAN

CARWINGS Data Center can be restored.
