cal system. Have the system checked by a
NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.
Some indicators and warnings are also displayed
on the vehicle information display in the lower
display. (See “Vehicle information display” in this
section.)
WARNING LIGHTS
12-volt battery charge
warning light
The DC/DC converter converts 400 volt Li-ion
battery voltage to charge the 12-volt battery.
This light illuminates continuously after the bulb is
checked when the power switch is in the ON
position, and turns off when the power switch is
placed in the READY to drive position.
When this warning light illuminates, a chime
sounds and the following warnings are also dis-
played.
• Master warning (red)
• EV system warning light
The following messages also flash on and off on
the vehicle information display.
If the vehicle is being driven: “Stop the vehicle”
and if the vehicle is stopped: “When parked applyparking brake”. When these messages flash, im-
mediately stop the vehicle in a safe location, pull
the parking brake switch and push the P (Park)
position switch on the shift lever to place the
vehicle in the P (Park) position. The warning on
the meter and the chime stop when the parking
brake is operated or the vehicle is in the P (Park)
position. Contact a NISSAN certified LEAF
dealer for support.
CAUTION
• The DC/DC converter system may not be functioning properly if the 12-volt
battery charge warning light illumi-
nates continuously when the power
switch is in the READY to drive posi-
tion. Immediately stop the vehicle in a
safe location and contact a NISSAN

not function properly.
For additional information, see “Supplemental re-
straint system” in the “Safety — Seats seat belts
and supplemental restraint system” section.
WARNING
If the supplemental air bag warning light
is on, it could mean that the front air bag,
side air bag, curtain air bag and/or pre-
tensioner systems will not operate in an
accident. To help avoid injury to yourself
or others, have your vehicle checked by a
NISSAN certified LEAF dealer as soon as
possible.
Vehicle Dynamic Control
(VDC) warning light
The light will blink when the Vehicle Dynamic
Control (VDC) system is operating, thus alerting
the driver that the vehicle is nearing its traction
limits. The road surface may be slippery.
When the VDC warning light illuminates with
VDC system turned on, this light alerts the driver
to the fact that the VDC system’s fail-safe mode
is operating, for example the VDC system may
not be functioning properly. Have the system
checked by a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer. If a
malfunction occurs in the system, the VDC sys-
tem function will be canceled but the vehicle is
still driveable. For additional information, see “Ve-
hicle Dynamic Control (VDC) system” in the
“Starting and driving” section of this manual.

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.
