2017 NISSAN LEAF stop start

9. While the booster vehicleBengine is run-
ning, place the EV system in the READY to
drive position.
CAUTION
If the system does not start right away,
push the power switch to the OFF posi-
tion and wait 10 seconds before trying
again.
10. After starting your EV system, carefully dis- connect the negative cable and then the
positive cable (
4→3→2→1) and
keep the READY to drive position over
20 minutes to charge the 12-volt battery.
11. If necessary, connect the vehicle to a charg- ing station or EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply
Equipment) to charge the Li-ion battery. For
additional information, refer to “Charging”
section. The vehicle cannot be driven until
the Li-ion battery is charged.
NOTE:
If it is not possible to turn the system ON by
following this procedure, it is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer immediately. If the power limitation indicator light
illumi-
nates, the traction motor output is limited result-
ing in reduced vehicle speed. Stop the vehicle in
a safe location before the Li-ion battery becomes
completely discharged and no power is available
to drive the vehicle. Contact Roadside assis-
tance; refer to a NISSAN Warranty Information
Booklet.
If possible, place the power switch in the OFF
position while waiting for assistance to prevent
discharging the 12-volt battery.
NOTE:
If the Li-ion battery becomes completely
discharged:
• The vehicle is automatically placed in the
ON position and it will not be possible to
switch to the READY to drive position.
• The vehicle is automatically switched to
the N (Neutral) position and it will not be
possible to drive the vehicle.
WARNING
If the vehicle is in the N (Neutral) position
and the Li-ion battery and the 12-volt
battery become completely discharged,
the vehicle cannot be placed in the P
(Park) position. If this occurs, place suit-
able blocks at both the front and back of
a wheel to prevent the vehicle from mov-
ing. Failure to block a wheel may allow
the vehicle to move unexpectedly which
may result in serious personal injury or
death.
To place the vehicle in the READY to drive posi-
tion so the vehicle can be driven, charge the
Li-ion battery until the driving range on the instru-
ment panel changes from “---” to a numeric dis-
tance.
