Charging timer cannot beperformed. The charge cable is not connected. Connect the charge cable.
The time on the clock is wrong. The charging timer function does not start charging based on the clock located on the upper dis-
play. Confirm that the date and time shown on the charging timer screen are the same as the GPS
time and date. If the 12-volt battery is discharged or if the Li-ion battery is disconnected, the time
setting must be updated. There must be a GPS signal to adjust the timer setting clock.
The immediate charge switch has been pushed. Charging timer does not operate when immediate charge is selected.
Charging timer has not been set. Set the charging timer schedule. For additional information, refer to “Charging timer” in this section.
Charging does not start because the charging
timer start time and end time are set and the cur-
rent time is before the set start time. Confirm when the charging timer time is set to start charging. Change the charging timer setting to the
desired charge time or push the immediate charge switch. For additional information, refer to “Charging
timer” in this section.
Charging does not start because only the charg-
ing timer start time is set and the current time is
after the set start time.
Charging does not start because only the charg-
ing timer end time is set and the current time is
after the set end time.
The charge cable is not connected.
Connect the charge cable beforehand.
Charging does not start because the charge
amount has been set to 80% and the Li-ion bat-
tery is already charged to more than 80%. Confirm the charge percentage and if you need to charge the Li-ion battery more, change to the
desired charge setting.

Normal charge stops in themiddle of charging. There is no power coming from the outlet. There may have been a electrical power failure, or the breaker may have failed. Charging will resume
when the power source is reset.
The charge cable has been disconnected. Check that the charge cable has not been disconnected.
Both the normal charge connector and the quick
charge connector were connected at the same
time. If the normal charge connector and the quick charge connector are connected at the same time,
charging will be stopped.
Charging timer end time has been reached. When the charging timer is set and the charge end time is reached, charging will be stopped, even if the Li-ion battery is not fully charged.
The temperature of the Li-ion battery is too hot
or too cold to charge. Confirm the Li-ion battery temperature by checking the Li-ion battery temperature gauge. If the
gauge indicates the Li-ion battery is too hot (red zone) or too cold (blue zone) , charging is not pos-
sible. Allow the Li-ion battery to cool or warm up before charging. For additional information, refer to
“Li-ion battery temperature gauge” in the “Instruments and controls” section of this manual.
Quick charge cannot be per- formed. Incorrect charge connector connection, not fully
inserted or may not be locked.
Check that the charge connector is connected correctly and that it is locked.
The self-diagnostic function of the quick charge
device returns a negative result. There is a possibility that the vehicle has a malfunction. Stop charging. It is recommended that you visit
a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.
Charging does not start because the charge
amount has been set to 80% and the Li-ion battery
is already charged to more than 80%. Confirm the charge percentage and if you need to charge the Li-ion battery more, change to the
desired charge setting.
The power switch of the quick charger is off. Check the power switch of the quick charger.
Quick charge stops in the middle of charging. Charging is stopped by the quick charge timer. Charging will stop depending on the timer function setting of the quick charge device. If you need to
charge the Li-ion battery more, start the charging procedure again.
The maximum time for quick charge is 30–60 minutes. If you need to charge the Li-ion battery for longer
than this, start the charging procedure again.
The power supply for the quick charger is off. Check whether the power supply for the quick charger is off.

WARNING
• Do not ride in a moving vehicle when the seatback is reclined. This can be
dangerous. The shoulder belt will not
be against your body. In an accident,
you could be thrown into it and receive
neck or other serious injuries. You
could also slide under the lap belt and
receive serious internal injuries. •
For the most effective protection when
the vehicle is in motion, the seat should
be upright. Always sit well back and
upright in the seat with both feet on the
floor and adjust the seat properly. For
additional information, refer to “Precau-
tions on seat belt usage” in this section.
• After adjustment, gently rock in the
seat to make sure it is securely locked.
• Do not leave children unattended in- side the vehicle. They could unknow-
ingly activate switches or controls. Un-
attended children could become
involved in serious accidents. • To help avoid risk of injury or death
through unintended operation of the
vehicle and/or its systems, do not
leave children, people who require the
assistance of others or pets unat-
tended in your vehicle. Additionally,
the temperature inside a closed ve-
hicle on a warm day can quickly be-
come high enough to cause a signifi-
cant risk of injury or death to people
and pets.
• Do not adjust the driver’s seat while driving so full attention may be given
to vehicle operation. The seat may
move suddenly and could cause loss of
control of the vehicle.
• The seatback should not be reclined any more than needed for comfort.
Seat belts are most effective when the
passenger sits well back and straight
up in the seat. If the seatback is re-
clined, the risk of sliding under the lap
belt and being injured is increased.
CAUTION
When adjusting the seat positions, be
sure not to contact any moving parts to
avoid possible injuries and/or damage.

added comfort and to help obtain proper seat
belt fit. For additional information, refer to “Pre-
cautions on seat belt usage” in this section. Also,
the seatback can be reclined to allow occupants
to rest when the vehicle is stopped and the
vehicle is in the P (Park) position.Seat lifter (driver’s seat):
Pull up or push down the adjusting lever to adjust
the seat height to the preferred position.

WARNING
Head restraints/headrests supplement
the other vehicle safety systems. They
may provide additional protection
against injury in certain rear end colli-
sions. Adjustable head restraints/
headrests must be adjusted properly, as
specified in this section. Check the ad-
justment after someone else uses the
seat. Do not attach anything to the head
restraint/headrest stalks or remove the
head restraints/headrests. Do not use
the seat if the head restraint/headrest
has been removed. If the head restraint/
headrest was removed, reinstall and
properly adjust the head restraint/
headrest before an occupant uses the
seating position. Failure to follow these
instructions can reduce the effectiveness
of the head restraint/headrest. This may
increase the risk of serious injury or
death in a collision. The illustration shows the seating positions
equipped with a head restraint/headrest.
Indicates the seating position is equipped
with a head restraint.
+ Indicates the seating position is not equipped
with a head restraint or headrest (if applicable) .
• Your vehicle is equipped with a head restraint/ headrest that may be integrated, adjustable or
non-adjustable.
• Adjustable head restraints/headrests have mul- tiple notches along the stalks to lock them in a
desired adjustment position. • The non-adjustable head restraints/headrests
have a single locking notch to secure them to
the seat frame.
• Proper Adjustment: – For the adjustable type, align the headrestraint/headrest so the center of your ear
is approximately level with the center of the
head restraint/headrest.
– If your ear position is still higher than the recommended alignment, place the head
restraint/headrest at the highest position.
• If the head restraint/headrest has been re- moved, ensure that it is reinstalled and locked in
place before riding in that designated seating
position.
