•
RearView Monitor is a convenience  
feature and is not a substitute for  
proper backing. Always turn and look  
out the windows and check mirrors  
to be sure that it is safe to move be-  
fore operating the vehicle. Always  
back up slowly.

The system is designed as an aid to  
the driver in showing large station-  
ary objects directly behind the ve-  
hicle, to help avoid damaging the  
vehicle.  
LHA4522  
The RearView Monitor system automati-  
cally shows a rear view of the vehicle when  
the shift lever is shifted into the R (Reverse)  
position. The radio can still be heard while  
the RearView Monitor is active.  
The distance guide line and the ve-  
hicle width line should be used as a  
reference only when the vehicle is on  
a level paved surface. The distance  
viewed on the monitor is for refer-  
ence only and may be different than  
the actual distance between the ve-  
hicle and displayed objects.  
To display the rear view, the RearView Moni-  
tor system uses a camera located just  
1
᭺
above the vehicle’s license plate  
.
REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM  
OPERATION  
With the EV (electric vehicle) system on and  
in “READY to drive”, move the shift lever to

lever is in the R (Reverse) position and the  
steering wheel is turned. The predictive  
course lines will move depending on how  
much the steering wheel is turned and will  
not be displayed while the steering wheel is  
in the straight-ahead position.

WARNING  
•
•
If the tires are replaced with different  
sized tires, the predictive course lines  
may be displayed incorrectly.  
On a snow-covered or slippery road,  
there may be a difference between  
the predictive course line and the ac-  
tual course line.  
•
If the battery is disconnected or be-  
comes discharged, the predictive  
course lines may be displayed incor-  
rectly. If this occurs, please perform  
the following procedures:  
- Turn the steering wheel from lock to  
lock while the EV (electric vehicle)  
system is running.  
- Drive the vehicle on a straight road  
for more than 5 minutes.

tings of the RearView Monitor while  
the vehicle is moving. Make sure the  
parking brake is firmly applied.  
Underneath the bumper and the cor-  
ner areas of the bumper cannot be  
viewed on the RearView Monitor be-  
cause of its monitoring range limita-  
tion. The system will not show small  
objects below the bumper, and may  
not show objects close to the bum-  
per or on the ground.  
HOW TO TURN ON AND OFF  
PREDICTIVE COURSE LINES  
Do not strike the camera. It is a preci-  
sion instrument. Otherwise, it may  
malfunction or cause damage result-  
ing in a fire or an electric shock.  
To toggle ON and OFF the predictive course  
lines while in the P (Park) position:  
1. Touch the “Settings” key.  
2. Touch the “Camera” key.  
The following are operating limitations and  
do not represent a system malfunction:  
•
•
Objects viewed in the RearView  
Monitor differ from actual distance  
because a wide-angle lens is used.  
• When the temperature is extremely high  
or low, the screen may not clearly display  
objects.  
3. Touch the “Predictive Course Lines” key  
to turn the feature ON or OFF.  
Objects in the RearView Monitor will  
appear visually opposite compared  
to when viewed in the rearview and  
outside mirrors.  
Pushing the CAMERA button while the shift  
lever is in the R (Reverse) position can also  
turn on and off the predictive course lines.  
• When strong light directly shines on the  
camera, objects may not be displayed  
clearly.  
•
Use the displayed lines as a refer-  
ence. The lines are highly affected by  
the number of occupants, fuel level,  
vehicle position, road conditions and  
road grade.  
• Vertical lines may be seen in objects on  
the screen. This is due to strong reflected  
light from the bumper.  
REARVIEW MONITOR SYSTEM  
LIMITATIONS

The Intelligent Around View Monitor sys-  
tem is designed as an aid to the driver in  
situations such as slot parking or parallel  
parking. The monitor displays various  
views of the position of the vehicle in a split  
screen format. Not all views are available at  
all times.

The Intelligent Around View Monitor  
is a convenience feature and is not a  
substitute for proper vehicle opera-  
tion because it has areas where ob-  
jects cannot be viewed. The four cor-  
ners of the vehicle in particular, are  
areas where objects do not always  
appear in the bird’s-eye, front, or rear  
views. Always check your surround-  
ings to be sure that it is safe to move  
before operating the vehicle. Always  
operate the vehicle slowly.  
Available views:

HEATER AND AIR CONDITIONER  
(automatic)  
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.  
NOTE:  
WARNING  
• 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.  
•
•
The air conditioning cooling function  
operates only when the power  
switch is in the ON position or when  
the READY to drive indicator light is  
ON.  
• When parking, set the heater or air  
conditioner controls to turn off air re-  
circulation to allow fresh air into the  
passenger compartment. This should  
help reduce odors inside the vehicle.  
The fan, heater and air conditioning can be  
turned on manually, using the timer func-  
tion and using the remote climate control  
function.  
Do not leave children or adults who  
would normally require the assis-  
tance of others alone in your vehicle.  
Pets should also not be left alone.  
They could accidentally injure them-  
selves or others through inadvertent  
operation of the vehicle. Also, on hot,  
sunny days, temperatures in a closed  
vehicle could quickly become high  
enough to causes severe or possibly  
fatal injuries to people or animals.  
These functions operate in the following  
conditions.  
•
Do not use the recirculation mode for  
long periods as it may cause the inte-  
rior air to become stale and the win-  
dows to fog up.

• 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.  
4-30 Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems  
• If the charge connector is connected to  
the 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  
control function.  
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.  
• For normal charge, the climate control  
system is operative when charging op-  
eration is complete. For quick charge  
however, the climate control system  
stops operating when charging opera-  
tion stops.  
The filter should be replaced if the air  
flow decreases significantly or if win-  
dows fog up easily when operating the  
climate control system.

partment may become high or low if  
the system automatically stops. Do not  
leave children or adults who would nor-  
mally require the support of others  
alone in your vehicle. Pets should not  
be left alone either. On hot, sunny days,  
temperatures in a closed vehicle could  
quickly become high enough to cause  
severe or possibly fatal injuries to

CLIMATE CTRL. TIMER  
Automatic air intake control  
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.  
In the AUTO mode, the intake air will be  
controlled automatically. When the outside  
temperature exceeds 70°F (21°C), the air  
conditioning system may default to air re-  
circulation mode automatically to reduce  
overall power consumption.  
The Climate Ctrl. Timer operates the air  
conditioner 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.  
To set the automatic control mode, press

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.  
* models with Navigation System  
4-40 Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems  
• 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 set-  
tings.  
• Air conditioning is limited to the capacity  
of the electric power when the charge  
connector is connected. Therefore, the  
temperature may not reach the set tem-  
perature due to limitations in air condi-  
tioning performance, if ambient tem-  
perature is excessively high or low, or if  
the charge connector is connected to a  
120–volt plug outlet.  
Remote climate control  
This vehicle incorporates a communica-  
tion device that is called a TCU (Telematics  
Control Unit). The communication connec-  
tion between this unit and Nissan Data  
Center allows for various remote function  
services.  
• When the difference in temperature be-  
tween the air conditioner setting tem-  
perature and the temperature outside  
the vehicle is large, the temperature in-  
side the vehicle may not be maintained  
at the setting temperature.  
Even when away from the vehicle, climate  
control can be started by accessing the  
Web Owner Portal using a cellular phone or  
a personal computer.  
• The Climate Ctrl. Timer operates the cli-  
mate control function so that a comfort-  
able temperature is provided in the pas-  
senger compartment at the scheduled  
time of departure. The climate control is  
set to stop at the scheduled time of de-  
parture.  
When operation is started, or at the set  
start time, the Nissan Data Center ac-  
cesses the vehicle. When the vehicle re-  
ceives a command for remote operation,  
the climate control immediately turns ON  
and operates for the specified period of  
time. Confirmation of the ON/OFF of the  
climate control operation can be checked  
by accessing the Web Owner Portal, or by  
e-mail.  
• The charging status indicator lights illu-  
minate in a specific pattern when the Li-  
ion battery warmer operates. The charg-  
ing status indicator lights use the same  
pattern to indicate 12–volt battery charg-  
ing, Climate Ctrl. Timer operation or Re-  
mote Climate Control operation. The  
charging status indicator lights do not  
change if the Li-ion battery warmer oper-  
ates at the same time as the above fea-  
tures.  
• Depending on the facilities of charging  
station, there may be time when it is not  
available for charging. Confirm the avail-  
ability of the charging facility before set-  
ting the Climate Ctrl. Timer. Be sure that  
the power switch of the charger is turned  
on when setting the Climate Ctrl. Timer.

WARNING  
•
•
Radio waves could adversely affect  
electric medical equipment. For ad-  
ditional information, refer to your  
electric medical equipment manu-  
facturer for the possible effect on  
pacemakers before using the remote  
climate control.  
• Some cellular phones are not compat-  
ible with this system and cannot be  
used to check the Li-ion battery charg-  
ing status. Confirm this beforehand.  
• Air conditioning is limited to the capacity  
of the electric power when the charge  
connector is connected to the vehicle.  
Therefore, the temperature may not  
reach a comfortable level due to perfor-  
mance of the air conditioning being lim-  
ited, if the outside temperature is exces-  
sively high or low, or if the charge  
connector is connected to a 110 – 120-volt  
outlet.  
Operating tips  
• When the charge connector is con-  
nected, the climate control operates us-  
ing electric power. When the charge con-  
nector is disconnected from the vehicle,  
the climate control operates using ve-  
hicle battery electric power.  
Even if the remote climate control is  
set, the temperature in the passen-  
ger room may become high if the  
system automatically stops. Do not  
leave children or adults who would  
normally require the support of oth-  
ers alone in your vehicle. Pets should  
not be left alone either. On hot, sunny  
days, temperatures in a closed ve-  
hicle could quickly become high  
enough to cause severe or possibly  
fatal injuries to people or animals.  
• The climate control can be operated for a  
maximum 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 the power switch is in the ON position or  
the charge connector is disconnected,  
while the remote climate control is being  
operated, remote climate control opera-  
tion is automatically stopped and an  
e-mail is sent.  
• The remote climate control will only start  
to operate when the power switch is in  
the LOCK/OFF or ACC position.  
NOTE:  
• If remote climate control operation is  
started while the vehicle is in normal  
charge mode, the climate control oper-  
ates in climate control priority mode and  
charging is continued.  
• To check the Li-ion battery charging  
status using an internet enabled smart  
phone or personal computer.  
– The vehicle must be located in a cel-  
lular phone coverage area.  
• Remote climate control operation is not  
available when the vehicle is in an area of  
cellular communication range.  
– The cellular phone must be located  
in an area with cellular phone cover-  
age.
