OPERATING TIPS
• When the shift lever is shifted to R (Reverse) , the monitor screen automatically changes to the
RearView Monitor mode. However, the radio
can be heard. • It may take some time until the RearView Moni-
tor is displayed after the shift lever has been
shifted to R (Reverse) . Objects may be dis-
torted momentarily until the RearView Monitor
screen is displayed completely. When the shift
lever is returned to a position other than R
(Reverse) , it may take some time until the
screen changes. Objects on the screen may be
distorted until they are completely displayed.
• When the temperature is extremely high or low, the screen may not clearly display objects. This
is not a malfunction.
• When strong light directly enters 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. This is not a malfunction.
• The screen may flicker under fluorescent light. This is not a malfunction.
• The colors of objects on the RearView Monitor may differ somewhat from those of the actual
object.
• When the contrast of objects is low at night, pressing the ENTER/SETTING button may not
change the brightness.
• Objects on the monitor may not be clear in a dark place or at night.

off the wax with a clean cloth dampened with
mild detergent diluted with water.

WARNING
• 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.
• Do not leave children or adults who would normally 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 people or animals.
• 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.
Note
•Odors from inside and outside the vehicle
can build up in the air conditioner unit.
Odor can enter the passenger compart-
ment through the vents.
• When parking, set the heater and air con-
ditioner controls to turn off air recircula-
tion to allow fresh air into the passenger
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 sys-
tem 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 function and using
the remote climate control function.

DISPLAYING CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM
STATUS SCREEN (MODELS WITH NAVIGA-
TION SYSTEM)
Push the STATUS button to display the climate
control system status on the navigation system
screen. (See the LEAF Navigation System Own-
er’s Manual.)
NOTE:
•If the READY to drive indicator light is
illuminated and the EVSE (Electric Vehicle
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 operat-
ing. However, the fan will continue to op-
erate. If you want to turn on climate con-
trol again, place the power switch in the
OFF position and then place it in the ON
position again after confirming that the
vehicle has started charging.
• When the power switch is in the ON posi-
tion, if the power supply from the EVSE
(Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment) is in-
terrupted due to an electrical outage, etc.,
the system will operate in the following
ways. – If it occurs while charging is being per-
formed:– 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 after charging has finished: –The climate control system will stop.

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.

(intake air control) button. The
indicator will blink twice and inside/outside
circulation will switch automatically.
A visible mist may be seen coming from the
ventilators in hot, humid conditions as the air is

off.
4. Turn the temperature control dial to set the desired temperature. The temperature range
is between 60°F (16°C) and 90°F (32°C) .
• Do not set the temperature lower than the outside air temperature. Doing so may pre-
vent the temperature from being controlled
properly.
• If the windows fog up, use dehumidified heating instead of the A/C off heating.
Dehumidified defrosting/defogging:
1. Press the front defroster
button. (The
indicator light will illuminate.)
2. Turn the temperature control dial to set the desired temperature.
• To remove moisture or fog on the front win- dow quickly, set the temperature to the high

cator light illuminates, the flowing air is recircu-
lated inside the vehicle.
Outside air circulation:

Note
• Odors from inside and outside the vehicle
can build up in the air conditioner unit.
Odor can enter the passenger compart-
ment through the vents.
• When parking, set the heater and air con-
ditioner controls to turn off air recircula-
tion to allow fresh air into the passenger
compartment. This should help reduce
odors inside the vehicle.
Climate Ctrl. Timer
The air conditioner starts to operate at the time of
day and day of the week specified in the settings.
This pre heats or pre cools the vehicle to a factory
preset temperature in the passenger compart-
ment before driving while the charger is con-
nected to vehicle. This helps reduce power con-
sumption from the Li-ion battery.
As the temperature is set to the factory default
setting, the user cannot adjust the temperature.
The Climate Ctrl. Timer operates the air condi-
tioner using power from the charger. Electric
power from the Li-ion battery is not used.
Once the Climate Ctrl. Timer is set, it automati-
cally starts when the set time is reached. It is

WARNING
Even if the Climate Ctrl. Timer is set, the
temperature in the passenger compart-
ment may become high or low if the sys-
tem automatically stops. Do not leave
children or adults who would normally
require 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. Also on cold days, tempera-
ture in a vehicle could become low
enough to cause severe or possible fatal
injuries to people or animals. 1. Push the
switchAon the left side of
the combination meter panel.
2. Push the
switchBuntil “Climate Ctrl.
Timer” is highlighted on the vehicle informa-
tion display and then push the
switch.
