navigation NISSAN LEAF 2022 Owner´s Manual

The hill start assist system automatically
keeps the brakes applied to help prevent
the vehicle from rolling backwards in the
time it takes the driver to release the brake
pedal and apply the accelerator when the
vehicle is stopped on a hill.
Hill start assist will operate automatically
under the following conditions:
• The shif t lever is placed in the D (Drive), Bmode, or R (Reverse) position.
• The vehicle is stopped completely on a hill by applying the brake.
The maximum holding time is 2 seconds.
Af ter 2 seconds the vehicle will begin to roll
back and hill start assist will stop operating
completely.
Hill start assist will not operate when the
shif t lever is placed in the N (Neutral) or P
(Park) position or on a flat and level road.CAUTION
To prevent damage to the Li-ion bat-
tery: Do not store the vehicle in tem-
peratures below -13°F (-25°C) for over
seven days. If the outside temperature
is -13°F (-25°C) or less, the Li-ion battery
may freeze and it cannot be charged or
provide power to run the vehicle. Move
the vehicle to a warm location.
NOTE:
• Connect the charger to the vehicle and place the power switch in the OFF po-
sition when parking the vehicle if tem-
peratures may go below -4°F (-20°C).
For models with 40 kWh battery
model, this provides external power to
the Li-ion battery warmer (if so
equipped) when it operates and does
not discharge the Li-ion battery. Ve-
hicle driving range is reduced if the Li-
ion battery warmer (if so equipped) op-
erates (Li-ion battery temperature
approximately -4°F (-20°C) or colder)
while driving the vehicle. You may need
to charge the Li-ion battery sooner
than in warmer temperatures.
• The Li-ion battery requires more time to charge when the Li-ion battery
warmer (if so equipped) operates. • The predicted charging time displayed
on the meter and navigation system (if
so equipped) increases when the Li-ion
battery warmer (if so equipped)
operates.
• Vehicle range may be substantially re- duced in extremely cold conditions (for
example under -4°F (-20°C)).
• Using the climate control system to heat the cabin when outside tempera-
ture is below 32°F (0°C) uses more elec-
tricity and affects vehicle range more
than when using the heater when the
temperature is above 32°F (0°C).
• Climate control performance is re- duced when using the Climate Ctrl.
Timer or Remote Climate Control while
the Li-ion battery warmer (if so
equipped) operates (for models with
40 kWh battery model). Set only the
charging timer [End Time] when charg-
ing in cold weather. The vehicle auto-
matically determines when to start
charging to fully charge the Li-ion bat-
tery, even if the Li-ion battery warmer
operates. Charging ends before the set
end time if the Li-ion battery is fully
charged.

1-800-387-0122.In addition to Event Data Recorders (EDRs)
mentioned in this Owner's Manual, this ve-
hicle is equipped with electronic modules
that monitor, control and record data con-
cerning various vehicle systems, including
the motor, batteries, braking and electrical
systems. Other electronic modules record
information concerning driving conditions,
including idling, braking, acceleration, trip
and other related data, information about
your use of the car and its features such as
air conditioner or headlight usage, diag-
nostic trouble codes, vehicle charging, ve-
hicle 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 wirelessly transmitted by
cellular connection through the vehicle on-
board telematics system upon vehicle
start-up or at other intervals to NISSAN.
This data may be used by NISSAN for vari-
ous purposes, including: to provide you
with NissanConnect® EV & Services or
NissanConnect® EV with Services powered
by SiriusXM® (For additional information, re-
fer to “NissanConnect® Manual”); trouble-
shooting; evaluation of your vehicle's qual-
ity, functionality and performance; analysis
and research by NISSAN designed to,

among other things, optimize perfor-
mance of future electric vehicles including
improvements in future battery life; to offer
you new or additional products or services;
and as otherwise may be required by law.
Such data may be shared with NISSAN's
parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, successors
or assignees; authorized NISSAN certified
LEAF dealers; NISSAN's marketing part-
ners; your fleet company, if your vehicle is a
fleet vehicle; your rental company, if your
vehicle is a rental vehicle; and third party
service providers such as cellular, informa-
tion systems and data management
providers.
State and provincial laws allow access and
use of data recorded by vehicle devices
with the consent of the vehicle owner or
pursuant to subscription agreement. 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 ve-
hicle, and certain features of your vehicle
which are dependent on vehicle telematics
will not operate as intended or designed.
These may include features such as auto-
matic charging station map updates, re-
mote battery state of charge check, charg-
ing complete notice, remote plug in
reminder, remote charging on, remote cli-mate control on, drive route planning, driv-
ing tips to improve range, driving history,
billing simulation, ECO ranking, ECO forest,
maintenance reminders, etc. Other fea-
tures that may be developed and offered
by NISSAN in the future may also not func-
tion without telematics data transmission.
NissanConnect® EV with Services powered
by SiriusXM® are provided by NISSAN pur-
suant to a subscription services agree-
ment covering your vehicle. This agree-
ment 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 op-
erator 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 ve-
hicle to transmit data to NISSAN, you can
deactivate the telematics account associ-
ated with this vehicle by canceling the sub-
scription services agreement 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
transmission of certain categories of data
through the use of settings found in thenavigation system under Menu,
NissanConnect® EV with Services powered
by SiriusXM®, Vehicle Information Sharing
with NISSAN. Note, turning off “Vehicle Infor-
mation Sharing with NISSAN” will only dis-
able the automatic sharing of information
at vehicle start-up. Certain categories of
data may still be transmitted if vehicle tele-
matics features are accessed 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 wire-
lessly transmits recorded vehicle data to
NISSAN for various purposes, including
NissanConnect® EV with Services powered
by SiriusXM®, product evaluation, research
and development. By touching OK, you
consent to the transmission and use of
your vehicle data. See Owner's Manual or
NISSAN Owner's portal webpage for terms
and details.” If you touch [OK], your vehicle
will transmit data as designed in connec-
tion with the vehicle telematics system. If
you touch [Decline] your vehicle will not
10-18Technical and consumer information

transmit data. However, the telematics fea-
tures referenced above, and perhaps oth-
ers, will not be available to you. The vehicle’s
static navigation system will remain opera-
tional, and you will be able to access your
radio and climate controls.
Telematics features are dependent on cel-
lular data transmission. Some areas may
have limited or no cellular connectivity, re-
sulting in a loss or interruption of data
transmission and, as a result, certain fea-
tures 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, underground parking, mountain-
ous areas, etc. Even if the signal strength
bar of the in-vehicle data communication
module indicates good reception, connec-
tivity may be disrupted. This does not indi-
cate a malfunction. Operate the system
again af ter a few minutes to restore con-
nectivity. NissanConnect® EV with Services
powered by SiriusXM® 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 incomplete or inaccu-
rate data. NissanConnect® EV with Services
powered by SiriusXM® communications
may be received at a verified e-mail ad-dress or by SMS/text messaging-enabled
mobile phone. Standard text rates and/or
data usage may apply depending on your
carrier.

tive, 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 infor-
mation. Upon sale of the vehicle, please
contact NISSAN at the website or phone
