FEATURES OF LEAF NAVIGATION SYSTEM

UNIQUE EV FUNCTIONS

In addition to the conventional navigation func­tions, the LEAF navigation system also offers
specific support for driving an EV.

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 ba sed 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.

Icons for charging stations can be displayed on
the map. You can also display only charging
stations that are equipped with quick charge
devices or only charging stations that are
equipped with normal charge devices.

“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.

Timer)” (page 2-11)
