HOW TO TRICKLE CHARGE
WARNING
• If you use any medical electric devices, such as an implantable cardiac pace-
maker or an implantable cardiovascu-
lar defibrillator, check with the electric
medical device manufacturer concern-
ing the effects that charging may have
on implanted devices before starting
the charge operation. Charging may
affect the operation.
• In order to avoid an electric shock or fire due to a short circuit, connect to a
GFI (Ground Fault Interrupter) circuit
breaker and use a waterproof electri-
cal ground socket.
• The NISSAN Genuine EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment) charging
device provided with your vehicle
draws 12 amps continuously while
charging the Li-ion battery. Do not plug
in to any electrical circuit unless it is
inspected by a licensed electrician to
confirm that the electrical circuit can
accept a 12 amp draw. Any electrical
circuit has a much higher likelihood of
being compromised in the following
conditions listed below. – Improper use of the charger may
result in a fire and serious injury or
death.

fied LEAF dealer.
NISSAN VEHICLE IMMOBILIZER
SYSTEM
The NISSAN Vehicle Immobilizer System will not
allow the power switch to be placed in the
READY to drive position without the use of the
registered key. If the power switch fails to place the vehicle into
the READY to drive position using the registered
key, it may be due to interference caused by
another registered key, an automated toll road
device or automated payment device on the key
ring. Restart the EV system using the following
procedure:
1. Leave the power switch in the ON position for
approximately 5 seconds.
2. Place the power switch in the OFF position and wait approximately 10 seconds.
3. Repeat step 1 and 2 again.
4. Place the power switch in the READY to drive position while holding the device (which may
have caused the interference) separate from
the registered key.
If this procedure allows the power switch to be
placed in the READY to drive mode, NISSAN
recommends placing the registered key on a
separate key ring to avoid interference from
other devices. FCC Notice:
For USA:
This device complies with Part 15 of the
FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the fol-
lowing two conditions: (1) This device may

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.

To turn the system off
To turn off the climate control, press the Climate
control system 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.
Climate Ctrl. Timer
While the charger is connected to the vehicle,
this function pre-heats or pre-cools the passen-
ger compartment of the vehicle to the tempera-
ture set by default before driving. This helps
reduce power consumption from the Li-ion bat-
tery.
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 so the vehicle compartment will be
cooled/heated to the temperature set by default
by the registered departure time. It is therefore
not necessary to set the Climate Ctrl. Timer ev-
eryday.
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

DRINKING ALCOHOL/DRUGS AND
DRIVING
WARNING
Never drive under the influence of alco-
hol or drugs. Alcohol in the bloodstream
reduces coordination, delays reaction
time and impairs judgement. Driving af-
ter drinking alcohol increases the likeli-
hood of being involved in an accident
injuring yourself and others. Additionally,
if you are injured in an accident, alcohol
can increase the severity of the injury.
NISSAN is committed to safe driving. However,
you must choose not to drive under the influence
of alcohol. Every year thousands of people are
injured or killed in alcohol-related accidents. Al-
though the local laws vary on what is considered
to be legally intoxicated, the fact is that alcohol
affects all people differently and most people
underestimate the effects of alcohol.
Remember, drinking and driving don’t mix! That is
true for drugs too (over-the-counter, prescrip-
tion, and illegal drugs) . Do not drive if your ability
to operate your vehicle is impaired by alcohol,
drugs, or some other physical condition.
WARNING
Do not operate the power switch while
driving the vehicle except in an emer-
gency. (The EV system shuts down when
the power switch is pushed 3 consecutive
times or the power switch is pushed and
held for more than 2 seconds.) If the EV
system stops while the vehicle is being
driven, this could lead to a crash and
serious injury.
Before operating the power switch, make sure
the vehicle is in the P (Park) position.
NISSAN INTELLIGENT KEY®
SYSTEM
The Intelligent Key system allows the driver to
start the EV system without taking the key out of
the pocket or purse. The operating environment
and/or conditions may affect Intelligent Key sys-
tem operation.
Some indicators and warnings for operation are
displayed on the vehicle information display in the
lower display. For additional information, refer to
“Vehicle information display” in the “Instruments
and controls” section of this manual.
CAUTION
• Be sure to carry the Intelligent Key with you when operating the vehicle.
• Never leave the Intelligent Key inside the vehicle when you leave the vehicle.
