• When charging is set as the first priority, the

Climate Ctrl. Timer does not start until 10 seg-
ments of the Li-ion battery available charge
gauge are illuminated.

• When the climate control is set as the first

priority, the climate control system will be turned
on as scheduled by the Climate Ctrl. Timer
regardless of the remaining battery energy.

• Even when the climate control is set as the first

priority, the climate control system will be turned
off when the climate control spends more elec-
tric than the charging Li-ion battery.

• The Li-ion battery may not charge or may even

become discharged if the Climate Ctrl. Timer or
remote climate control is used in low ambient
temperatures.

Remote climate control

This vehicle incorporates a communication de-
vice that is called a TCU (Telematics Communi-
cation Unit). The communication connection be-
tween this unit and NISSAN CARWINGS Data
Center allows for various remote function ser-
vices.

Even when away from the vehicle, climate control
can be started by accessing the NISSAN CAR-

WINGS Data Center website using a cellular
phone or a personal computer.

When operation is started, or at the set start time,
the NISSAN CARWINGS Data Center accesses
the vehicle. When the vehicle receives a com-
mand for remote operation, the climate control
immediately turns ON and operates for the speci-
fied period of time. Confirmation of the ON/OFF
of the climate control operation can be checked
by accessing the website or by e-mail.

Establishing the CARWINGS™ service is neces-
sary before using the service. See LEAF Naviga-
tion System Owner’s Manual.

WARNING

• Radio waves could adversely affect

electric medical equipment. For more
information,

contact

your

electric

medical equipment manufacturer for
the possible effect on pacemakers be-
fore using the remote climate control.

• Even if the remote climate control is

set, the temperature in the passenger
room may become high if the system
automatically stops. Do not leave chil-
dren or adults who would normally re-
quire 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.

NOTE:

To check the Li-ion battery charging status

using an internet enabled smart phone or
personal computer.

– The vehicle must be located in a cellu-

lar phone coverage area.

– The cellular phone must be located in

an area with cellular phone coverage.

– The computer must be connected to

the internet.

Some cellular phones are not compatible

with this system and cannot be used to
check the Li-ion battery charging status.
Confirm this beforehand.
