SYSTEM LIMITATIONS
WARNING
Listed below are the system limitations
for Around View® Monitor. Failure to op-
erate the vehicle in accordance with
these system limitations could result in
serious injury or death.
•
Do not use the Around View® Monitor
with the outside mirrors in the stored
position, and make sure that the trunk is
securely closed when operating the ve-
hicle using the Around View® Monitor.
•The apparent distance between objects
viewed on the Around View® Monitor
differs from the actual distance.
• The cameras are installed on the front grille, the outside mirrors and above
the rear license plate. Do not put any-
thing on the vehicle that covers the
cameras.
• When washing the vehicle with high pressure water, be sure not to spray it
around the cameras. Otherwise, water
may enter the camera unit causing wa-
ter condensation on the lens, a mal-
function, fire or an electric shock.
• Do not strike the cameras. They are precision instruments. Doing so could
cause a malfunction or cause damage
resulting in a fire or an electric shock.

There are some areas where the system will not
show objects and the system does not warn of
moving objects. When in the front or rear view
display, an object below the bumper or on the
ground may not be viewed
1. When in the
bird’s-eye view, a tall object near the seam
2of
the camera viewing areas will not appear in the
monitor.
The following are operating limitations and do not
represent a system malfunction:
• There may be a delay when switching between views.
• When the temperature is extremely high or low, the screen may not display objects clearly.
• When strong light directly shines on the cam- era, objects may not be displayed clearly.
• The screen may flicker under fluorescent light.
• The colors of objects on the Around View® Monitor may differ somewhat from the actual
color of objects.
• Objects on the Around View® Monitor may not be clear and the color of the object may differ in
a dark environment.
• There may be differences in sharpness between each camera view of the bird’s-eye view. • Do not use wax on the camera lens. Wipe off
any wax with a clean cloth that has been damp-
ened with a diluted mild cleaning agent, then
wipe with a dry cloth.
System temporarily unavailable
When the “!” icon is displayed on the screen,
there are abnormal conditions in the Around
View® Monitor. This will not hinder normal driving
operation but the system should be inspected by
a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.

When the “[X]” icon is displayed on the screen,
the camera image may be receiving temporary
electronic disturbances from surrounding de-
vices. This will not hinder normal driving opera-
tion but the system should be inspected by a
NISSAN certified LEAF dealer if it occurs fre-
quently.SYSTEM MAINTENANCE
CAUTION
• Do not use alcohol, benzine or thinner 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 Around View® Monitor may not
display objects clearly. Clean the camera by wip-
ing with a cloth dampened with a diluted mild
cleaning agent and then wiping with a dry cloth.

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 assistance
of others alone in your vehicle. Pets
should also not be left alone. They
could accidentally injure themselves or
others through inadvertent operation
of the vehicle. Also, on hot, sunny days,
temperatures in a closed vehicle could
be quickly become 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 inte-
rior air to become stale and the win-
dows to fog up.

4-22Display screen, heater, air conditioner, audio and phone systems

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 or air condi-
tioner controls to turn off air recirculation
to allow fresh air into the passenger com-
partment. 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.
These functions operate in the following condi-
tions.

*1: The climate control system will only start when charging is being performed. After charging is complete, it will continue to operate if the EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment)
is connected.
*2: The EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment) must be connected.
*3: Models with navigation system.
Note
• A series of operation sounds may be
heard immediately after climate control
ON/OFF operation. This is not a malfunc-
tion.
• Compressor and motor fan may suddenly
start to operate during charging opera-
tion. This is not a malfunction. •
Condensation forms inside the air condi-
tioning unit when the air conditioner is
running, and is safely discharged under-
neath your vehicle. Traces of water on the
ground are therefore normal. Water may
drop underneath the vehicle when climate
control is operating.

DISPLAYING CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM
STATUS SCREEN (MODELS WITH NAVIGA-
TION SYSTEM)
Press the STATUS button to display the climate
control system status on the navigation system
screen. For additional information, refer to the
separate Navigation Owner’s Manual.
NOTE:
•If the READY to drive indicator light is illumi-
nated 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 operating. However, the fan will
continue to operate. If you want to turn on
climate control 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 inter-
rupted 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.
OPERATING TIPS
• The automatic climate control is equipped with
sensors as illustrated. The sensors
AandB
help maintain a constant temperature. Do not
put anything on or around these sensors.
• Using the AUTO mode will help reduce the power consumption of the climate control.
• When the AUTO switched is pressed, the AUTO indicator illuminates. The
(HEAT)
button indicator or the A/C button indicator
illuminates according to the operation of the
climate control system.
4-24Display screen, heater, air conditioner, audio and phone systems

• If the charger is connected to the vehicle whenit is in the ready to drive mode and the air
conditioner or heater is on, the power switch
automatically changes to the ON position. The
climate control system automatically turns off
the heater or air conditioner and switches to the
air recirculation mode. Place the power switch
in the off position to begin charging. Turn on the
desired climate control function.
• For normal charge, the climate control system is operative when charging operation is complete.
For quick charge however, the climate control
system stops operating when charging opera-
tion stops. • The climate control timer or remote climate con-
trol (for models with Navigation) may fog up
windows depending on the set temperature (for
models with Navigation) or outside
temperature.
• When turning on the seat heater switch prior to operating the climate control timer or the remote
climate control (for models with Navigation) , the
seat heater will also turn on automatically when
the outside temperature is low.
AIR CONDITIONER FILTER
The climate control system is equipped with an
in-cabin microfilter which collects dirt, dust etc.
To make sure the air conditioner heats defogs,
and ventilates efficiently, replace the filter regu-
larly. To replace the filter, contact a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer.
The filter should be replaced if the air flow
decreases significantly or if windows fog
up easily when operating the climate con-
trol system.
