automatic transmission NISSAN LEAF 2013 1.G Owners Manual

The HomeLink® Universal Transceiver provides
a convenient way to consolidate the functions of
up to three individual hand-held transmitters into
one built-in device.
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver:
Will operate most Radio Frequency (RF) de-vices such as garage doors, gates, home and
office lighting, entry door locks and security
systems.
Is powered by the vehicle’s 12-volt battery. No separate batteries are required. If the vehicle’s
12-volt battery is discharged or is discon-
nected, HomeLink® will retain all programming.
Once the HomeLink® Universal Trans-
ceiver is programmed, retain the original
transmitter for future programming proce-
dures (for example, new vehicle pur-
chases) . Upon sale of the vehicle, the pro-
grammed HomeLink® Universal
Transceiver buttons should be erased for
security purposes. For additional informa-
tion, see “Programming HomeLink®” later
in this section.
WARNING
Do not use the HomeLink® Universal Transceiver with any garage door
opener that lacks safety stop and re-
verse features as required by federal
safety standards. (These standards be-
came effective for opener models
manufactured after April 1, 1982.) A
garage door opener that cannot detect
an object in the path of a closing ga-
rage door and then automatically stop
and reverse, does not meet current
federal safety standards. Using a ga-
rage door opener without these fea-
tures increases the risk of serious in-
jury or death.
During the programming procedure, your garage door or security gate will
open or close (if the transmitter is
within range) . Make sure that people
or objects are clear of the garage door,
gate, etc. that you are programming.
Place the power switch in the ACC or ON position while programming the
HomeLink® Universal Transceiver.
PROGRAMMING HOMELINK®
If you have any questions or are having difficulty
programming your HomeLink® buttons, refer to
the HomeLink® web site at: www.homelink.com
or call 1-800-355-3515.
NOTE:
Place the ignition switch in the ACC posi-
tion when programming HomeLink®. It is
also recommended that a new battery be
placed in the hand-held transmitter of the
device being programmed to HomeLink®
for quicker programming and accurate
transmission of the radio-frequency.
1. Position the end of your hand-held transmitter
1–3 inches (2–8 cm) away from the
HomeLink® surface, keeping the HomeLink®
indicator light
1in view.

2-58Instruments and controls

In addition to Event Data Recorders (EDRs) dis-
cussed elsewhere in this Owner’s Manual, this
vehicle is equipped with electronic modules that
monitor, control and record data concerning vari-
ous vehicle systems, including the motor, batter-
ies, braking and electrical systems. Other elec-
tronic modules record information concerning
driving conditions, including idling, braking, ac-
celeration, trip and other related data, information
about your use of the car and its features such as
air conditioner or headlight usage, diagnostic
trouble codes, vehicle charging, vehicle speed,
direction and/or location.
Some of this data is stored by the vehicle for use
during vehicle servicing. Other data concerning
your vehicle’s operation and performance is wire-
lessly transmitted by cellular connection through
the vehicle onboard telematics system upon ve-
hicle start-up or at other intervals to NISSAN.
This data may be used by NISSAN for various
purposes, including: to provide you with CAR-
WINGS™ services (see LEAF Navigation System
Owner’s Manual for details); troubleshooting;
evaluation of your vehicle’s quality, functionality
and performance; analysis and research by
NISSAN designed to, among other things, opti-
mize performance of future electric vehicles in-
cluding improvements in future battery life; tooffer you new or additional products or services;
and as otherwise may be required by law. Such
data may be shared with NISSAN’s parents, sub-
sidiaries, affiliates, successors or assignees; au-
thorized NISSAN certified LEAF dealers; NIS-
SAN’s marketing partners; your fleet company, if
your vehicle is a fleet vehicle; your rental com-
pany, if your vehicle is a rental vehicle; and third
party service providers such as cellular, informa-
tion systems and data management providers.
State laws allow access and use of data re-
corded by vehicle devices with the consent of the
vehicle owner or pursuant to subscription agree-
ment. While you are not required to allow such
access and use, if you do not so agree NISSAN
may be unable under applicable law to activate
the vehicle telematics system in your vehicle, and
certain features of your vehicle which are depen-
dent on vehicle telematics will not operate as
intended or designed. These may include fea-
tures such as automatic charging station map
updates, remote battery state of charge check,
charging complete notice, remote plug in re-
minder, remote charging on, remote climate con-
trol on, drive route planning, driving tips to im-
prove range, driving history, billing simulation,
ECO ranking, ECO forest, maintenance remind-
ers, etc. Other features that may be developedand offered by NISSAN in the future may also not
function without telematics data transmission.
CARWINGS™ telematics services are provided
by NISSAN pursuant to a subscription services
agreement covering your vehicle. This agreement
is necessary for all owners. This agreement, and
an explanation of its terms and conditions, can be
found at the NISSAN Owner’s Portal webpage.
Further, the operator of the vehicle must also
touch [OK] on the Navi screen to indicate assent
each time he or she starts the car. If you decide at
any time that you do not want your vehicle to
transmit data to NISSAN, you can deactivate the
telematics account associated with this vehicle
by canceling the subscription services agree-
ment by visiting the NISSAN Owner’s Portal
Webpage or calling NISSAN at 1-877-
NOGASEV (1-877-664-2738) . The service can
be reactivated later upon request if you choose.
Simply visit the same website or call the number
above. Alternatively, you can turn off the transmis-
sion of certain categories of data through the use
of settings found in the Navigation system under
Menu, CARWINGS™, Vehicle Information Shar-
ing with NISSAN. Note, turning off “Vehicle Infor-
mation Sharing with NISSAN” will only disable
the automatic sharing of information at vehicle
start-up. Certain categories of data may still be

transmitted if vehicle telematics features are ac-
cessed either in the vehicle or remotely.
Your agreement to the transmission and use of
data by NISSAN can be provided in various ways.
The vehicle is equipped with a “pop up” screen
on the vehicle navigation system that will ask for
your consent to this data transfer. A version of the
following message will appear: “Pursuant to sub-
scription agreement, your vehicle wirelessly
transmits recorded vehicle data to NISSAN for
various purposes, including CARWINGS™ ser-
vices, product evaluation, research and develop-
ment. By pressing OK, you consent to the trans-
mission and use of your vehicle data. See
Owner’s Manual or NISSAN Owner’s portal
webpage for terms and details.” If you press [OK],
your vehicle will transmit data as designed in
connection with the vehicle telematics system. If
you press [Decline] your vehicle will not transmit
data. However, the telematics features refer-
enced above, and perhaps others, will not be
available to you. The vehicle’s static navigation
system will remain operational, and you will be
able to access your radio and climate controls.
Telematics features are dependent on cellular
data transmission. Some areas may have limited
or no cellular connectivity, resulting in a loss orinterruption of data transmission and, as a result,
certain features may be temporarily unavailable.
Even if areas with good signal reception, cellular
connectivity can be adversely affected by things
such as tall buildings, apartments, tunnels, un-
derground parking, mountainous areas, etc. Even
if the signal strength bar of the in-vehicle data
communication module indicates good recep-
tion, connectivity may be disrupted. This does not
indicate a malfunction. Operate the system again
after a few minutes to restore connectivity. CAR-
WINGS™ telematics features are offered as a
convenience to the vehicle owner. NISSAN is not
responsible for, and owner assumes all risk of,
interruptions in service or errors based on incom-
plete or inaccurate data. CARWINGS™ commu-
nications may be received at a verified e-mail
address or by SMS/text messaging-enabled mo-
bile phone. Standard text rates and/or data usage
may apply depending on your carrier.
If your vehicle’s telematics account is active, and
you are not the original owner, please contact
NISSAN at the website or phone number above
as soon as possible to update the telematics
enrollment information. Upon sale of the vehicle,
please contact NISSAN at the website or phone
number above so that NISSAN’s records may be
updated. CARWINGS™ subscription serviceswill automatically terminate at the end of the initial
free term if you do not wish to renew your sub-
scription agreement at the prices then in effect.
