This system is primarily designed to help you reach your destination, and it also performs other functions as outlined in this manual. However, you, the driver, must use the system safely and properly. Information concerning road conditions, traffic signs and the availability of services may not always be up-to-date. The system is not a substitute for safe, proper and legal driving.
Before using the navigation system, please read the following safety information. Always use the system as outlined in this manual.
WARNING
. When the driver wants to operate
the navigation system, first park the vehicle in a safe location and set the parking brake. Operating the sys­tem while driving can distract the driver and may result in a serious accident.
. Do not rely on route guidance alone.
Always be sure that all driving maneuvers are legal and safe in order to avoid accidents.
. Do not disassemble or modify this
system. If you do, it may result in accidents, fire or electrical shock.
0-2 Introduction
. If you notice any foreign objects in
the system hardware, spill liquid on the system or notice smoke or a smell coming from it, stop using the system immediately and contact a NISSAN certified LEAF d ealer. Ignoring such conditions may lead to accidents, fire or electrical shock.
CAUTION
. Do not use this system if you notice
any malfunctions such as a frozen screen or the lack of sound. Con­tinued use of the system may result in accidents, fire or electrical shock.
. Some states/provinces may have
laws limiting the use of video screens while driving. Use this sys­tem only where it is legal to do so.
. Extreme temperature conditions
[below −48F(−208C) and above 1588F (708C)] could affect the per­formance of the system.
INFO:
Do not keep the navigation system running with the READY to drive indicator light is OFF. Doing so may discharge the vehicle battery. When you use the navigation system, always make sure the READY to drive indicator light is ON.
NOTE: . Establishing the CARWINGS

is necessary before using this service.
. To check the Li-ion battery charging
status or to use the remote heater and air conditioner using an internet en­abled smart phone or personal compu­ter, the following conditions must be met:
The vehicle must be located in a
cellular phone or smart phone cov­erage area.
The internet enabled cellular phone

When the remote heater and air
conditioner is set, the system oper­ates the heater and air conditioner to adjust the in-cabin temperature to a factory preset temperature. It is possible to change the set tempera­ture remotely or with the heater and air conditioner controls.
When the charge connector is dis-
connected from the vehicle, the heater and air conditioner operates using vehicle Li-ion battery electric power.
If the remote heater and air condi-
tioner function and Li-ion battery charging are performed at the same time, Li-ion battery charging will take longer than usual due to the power used to heat or cool the vehicle.
. Certain remote functions required a
compatible smart phone, which is not included with vehicle.

FEATURES OF LEAF NAVIGATION SYSTEM
UNIQUE EV FUNCTIONS
CAUTION
Charging station information may not be detailed in all areas or reflect current charging station locations. For up to date information about charging sta­tions, such as business hours or char­ging equipment, NISSAN recommends that you directly access the information on your own. Additionally, always check the remaining amount of battery charge and set a reasonable driving schedule.
Driving range display
By pressing the button on the steering wheel, you can display the estimated one way range that the vehicle can be driven from the current location based on the amount of remaining battery charge. When a destination or a waypoint has been set, the driving area will be displayed with the destination or waypoint in the center.
“Displaying estimated driving range” (page 2-3)
Charging stations located within the driving area will also be displayed. By moving the map, you can set a charging station as a destination or waypoint.
“Setting a charging station as destination” (page 2-5)
Charging station information
NOTE: Charging stations that have been searched for using this function are not necessarily equipped with devices that can be used to charge a LEAF. Be sure to confirm this in advance before setting a charging station as the destination.
“Displaying charging station icons on map” (page 2-5)
You can search for charging stations near the current location, set a charging station as a destination or waypoint, and check detailed information about charging stations.
“Finding charging station” (page 3-24)
IT-2 EV LEAF Navigation System overview
When connecting to the NISSAN CARWINGS Data Center, the system will periodically perform an automatic update of information for charging stations near your home. The system will also automatically update information for charging stations near the current vehicle location when the Li-ion battery charge is low. You can also manually update the charging stations around your current vehicle location at any time.
“Updating charging station information” (page 2-6)
Energy information display
Estimated driving range, average energy econ­omy and instant energy economy are displayed.
“Viewing energy economy information” (page 2-7)
Estimated driving range and energy usage of various systems are displayed. Also, variation of the estimated driving distances between the climate control ON and OFF is displayed.
“Viewing energy usage information” (page 2-8)
Timer functions
Charging of the Li-ion battery will automatically start at a scheduled time according to the start time, end time and day of the week set. The timer charge function allows two different timer settings. Each timer charge can be set to activate on a different day of the week. If no timer is set, the charge will start immediately after connecting the charge connector.
“Setting timer charge” (page 2-9)
The air conditioner starts to operate at the time of day and day of the week specified in the settings. This pre cools or heats the passenger compartment before starting to drive. Electric power consumption from the Li-ion battery resulting from heater and air conditioner opera­tion can be reduced because the temperature in the passenger room is adjusted before starting to drive.
“Setting Climate Ctrl. Timer” (page 2-11)
