3. Preparation for Dismantling
• Failure to properly shut down the high-voltage electrical system before the
Dismantling Procedures are performed will result in serious injury or death from
electrical shock. To prevent serious injury or death, NEVER touch high-voltage
harnesses or components without always wearing appropriate Personal Protective
Equipment (PPE) .
• If it is necessary to touch any of the high-voltage harnesses or components you
must
always wear appropriate PPE to avoid electrical shock. Shut down the high-
voltage system by following the steps outlined in 3-4 High-voltage System Shut-Down
Procedures
(DG–16) . Wait at least ten (10) minutes for complete discharge of the high-
voltage
capacitor after the high-voltage system has been shut down. • NEVER assume the LEAF is shut OFF simply because it is quiet.
• If it becomes necessary for the dismantler to leave the vehicle, place a “DANGER” sign
(for
example, refer to 4-3 Storing the Vehicle (DG–38)) on the vehicle to alert other
people
that the vehicle contains a high-voltage battery.
• If the READY indicator or charging indicator are ON, the high-voltage system
is
active.
• If possible, be sure to verify that the READY indicator on the instrument cluster
is
OFF and the high-voltage system is stopped.
3-1 Discharging Procedures Do not perform this procedure if the high-voltage battery is damaged. If you are unsure of
battery
damage, use extreme caution and always wear appropriate Personal Protective
Equipment (PPE) when working on high-voltage components.
High-voltage battery discharging must take place before dismantling. Sufficient discharging can be
achieved by following these steps. 1. Place the selector lever into the Park (P) position
2. Apply the parking brake.
3. Set wheel chocks to ensure the vehicle is completely immobilized.

Cabin Fuse Box Location
NO
TE:
Insert a screwdriver wrapped with a protective cloth (A) into the slit (1) . Pull to remove the fuse
box cover (2) . Remove the fuse with the fuse puller (3) .
7. Release the parking brake.
8. Turn the power switch OFF.
9. Release brake pedal. To avoid possible personal injury or vehicle damage, use wheel chocks or take appropriate
steps
to prevent the vehicle from rolling freely.
Be sure to firmly position wheel chocks when P (Park) position is manually released.
4-2.1 Reset Procedure 1. Install the 2 fuses removed previously.
2. Turn the power switch ON and wait 5 seconds without pressing the brake pedal. Ensure selectorlever is in the N (neutral) position.
3. If 12-volt battery is low voltage, please charge with battery charger.
4. Turn the power switch OFF and wait 5 seconds. UP
