MANUAL ANTI-GLARE REARVIEW
MIRROR (IF SO EQUIPPED)
The night position1reduces glare from
the headlights of vehicles behind you at
night.
Use the day position
2when driving in
daylight hours.
WARNING
Use the night position only when nec-
essary, because it reduces rearview
clarity.
AUTOMATIC ANTI-GLARE TYPE
(IF SO EQUIPPED)
The inside mirror is designed so that it au-
tomatically changes reflection based on
the intensity of the headlights of the vehicle
behind.
When the system is turned on, the indicator
light
Awill illuminate and excessive glare
from the headlights of the vehicle behind
you will be reduced. Push the “” switch
Cto make the inside
rearview mirror operate normally. The indi-
cator light will turn off. Push the “I” switch
D
to turn the system on.
Do not allow any object to cover the sen-
sors
Bor apply glass cleaner on them.
Doing so will reduce the sensitivity of the
sensor, resulting in improper operation.
WARNING
Use the night position only when nec-
essary, because it reduces rear view
clarity.
Pre-driving checks and adjustments3-25

• Underneath the bumper and thecorner areas of the bumper cannot
be viewed on the RearView Monitor
because of its monitoring range
limitation. The system will not show
small objects below the bumper,
and may not show objects close to
the bumper or on the ground.
• Objects viewed in the RearView Monitor differ from actual distance
because a wide-angle lens is used.
• Objects in the RearView Monitor will appear visually opposite compared
to when viewed in the rearview and
outside mirrors.
• 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.
• Make sure that the rear hatch is se- curely closed when backing up.
• Do not put anything on the rearview camera. The rearview camera is in-
stalled above the license plate. • When washing the vehicle with high
pressure water, be sure not to spray
it around the camera. Otherwise,
water may enter the camera unit
causing water condensation on the
lens, a malfunction, fire or an electric
shock.
• Do not strike the camera. It is a pre- cision instrument. Otherwise, it may
malfunction or cause damage re-
sulting in a fire or an electric shock.
The following are operating limitations and
do not represent a system malfunction:
• When the temperature is extremely high or low, the screen may not clearly display
objects.
• When strong light directly shines on the camera, objects may not be displayed
clearly.
• Vertical lines may be seen in objects on the screen. This is due to strong reflected
light from the bumper.
• The screen may flicker under fluorescent light. • The colors of objects on the RearView
Monitor may differ somewhat from the
actual color of objects.
• Objects on the monitor may not be clear in a dark environment.
• There may be a delay when switching be- tween views.
• If dirt, rain or snow accumulate on the camera, RearView Monitor may not dis-
play objects clearly. Clean the camera.
• Do not use wax on the camera lens. Wipe off any wax with a clean cloth dampened
with a diluted mild cleaning agent, then
wipe with a dry cloth.

INTELLIGENT AROUND VIEW
MONITOR SYSTEM OPERATION
With the EV (electric vehicle) system on,
move the shif t lever to the R (Reverse) po-
sition or press the CAMERA button to oper-
ate the Intelligent Around View Monitor. The
screen displayed on the Intelligent Around
View Monitor will automatically return to
the previous screen 3 minutes af ter the
CAMERA button has been pressed with the
shif t lever in a position other than the R
(Reverse) position.
Available views
WARNING
• The distance guide lines and the ve- hicle width lines should be used as a
reference only when the vehicle is on
a paved, level surface. The apparent
distance viewed on the monitor may
be different than the actual distance
between the vehicle and displayed
objects. • Use the displayed lines and the
bird’s eye view as a reference. The
lines and the bird’s-eye view are
greatly affected by the number of
occupants, cargo, fuel level, vehicle
position, road condition and road
grade.
• If the tires are replaced with differ- ent sized tires, the predictive course
lines and the bird’s-eye view may be
displayed incorrectly.
• When driving the vehicle up a hill, objects viewed in the monitor are
further than they appear. When driv-
ing the vehicle down a hill, objects
viewed in the monitor are closer
than they appear.
• Objects in the rear view will appear visually opposite compared to when
viewed in the rear view and outside
mirrors.
• Use the mirrors or actually look to properly judge distances to other
objects.
• On a snow-covered or slippery road, there may be a difference between
the predictive course lines and the
actual course line. • The vehicle width and predictive
course lines are wider than the ac-
tual width and course.
• The displayed lines will appear slightly off to the right, because the
rearview camera is not installed in
the rear center of the vehicle.

Birds-eye view:
The bird’s-eye view shows the overhead
view of the vehicle, which helps confirm the
vehicle position and the predicted course
to a parking space. The vehicle icon
1
shows the position of the vehicle. Note that
the apparent distance between objects
viewed in the bird’s-eye view may differ
somewhat from the actual distance to the
vehicle.
The areas that the cameras cannot cover
2are indicated in black.Af ter the EV system is placed in the ON
position, the non-viewable areas
2are
highlighted in yellow for several seconds
af ter the bird’s-eye view is displayed. It will
be shown only the first time af ter the
power switch is placed in the ON position.
WARNING
• Objects in the bird’s-eye view will appear further than the actual dis-
tance.
• Tall objects, such as a curb or vehicle, may be misaligned or not displayed
at the seam of the views.
• Objects that are above the camera cannot be displayed.
• The view for the bird’s-eye view may be misaligned when the camera po-
sition alters.
• A line on the ground may be mis- aligned and is not seen as being
straight at the seam of the views.
The misalignment will increase as
the line proceeds away from the ve-
hicle.
Front-side view:
Guiding lines
Guiding lines that indicate the approximate
width and the front end of the vehicle are
displayed on the monitor.
The front-of-vehicle line

mended that you visit a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer for this service.
When the “[X]” icon is displayed on the screen,
the camera image may be receiving tempo-
rary electronic disturbances from surround-
ing devices. This will not hinder normal driv-
ing operation but the system should be
inspected if it occurs frequently. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer for this service.
4-24Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems

• Excessive noise (for example, audiosystem volume or open vehicle win-
dow) will interfere with the chime
sound, and it may not be heard.
• The MOD system performance will be limited according to environmen-
tal conditions and surrounding ob-
jects such as:
– When there is low contrast be-tween background and the mov-
ing objects.
– When there is a blinking source of light.
– When strong light such as another vehicle’s headlight or sunlight is
present.
– When camera orientation is not in its usual position, such as when a
mirror is folded.
– When there is dirt, water drops or snow on the camera lens.
– When the position of the moving objects in the display is not
changed.
• The MOD system might detect flow- ing water droplets on the camera
lens, white smoke from the muffler,
moving shadows, etc. • The MOD system may not function
properly depending on the speed,
direction, distance or shape of the
moving objects.
• If your vehicle sustains damage to the parts where the camera is in-
stalled, leaving it misaligned or bent,
the sensing zone may be altered and
the MOD system may not detect ob-
jects properly.
• When the temperature is extremely high or low, the screen may not dis-
play objects clearly. This is not a
malfunction.
NOTE:
The blue MOD icon will change to orange
if one of the following has occurred:
•When the system is malfunctioning.
• When the component temperature
reaches a high level (icon will blink).
If the icon light continues to illuminate
orange, have the MOD system checked.
It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN certified LEAF dealer for this
service.
SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
• Do not use alcohol, benzine or thin- ner to clean the camera. This will
cause discoloration.
• Do not damage the cameras as the
monitor screen may be adversely af-
fected.
If dirt, rain or snow accumulates on any of
the cameras
1, the Intelligent Around
View Monitor may not display objects
clearly. Clean the camera by wiping with a
cloth dampened with a diluted mild clean-
ing agent and then wiping with a dry cloth.

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.
