from the vehicle when charging is
stopped.
• When quick charging, the Li-ion battery
charging rate is slower as the percent-
age of available battery charge in-
creases. To finish charging:
1. Confirm charging is stopped by looking
at the indicators on the instrument
panel. The charge connector can be dis-
connected from the vehicle when charg-
ing is stopped.
2. Unlock the charge connector, remove from the vehicle and properly store it.

straight and as carefully as possible.
HOW TO CHARGE/DISCHARGE
USING QUICK CHARGE PORT (IF SO
EQUIPPED)
V2X (vehicle to everything) enables the EV
to supply electric power to a home or a
building, etc.
“V2X ” includes all of the following:
• Vehicle to home (V2H)
• Vehicle to building (V2B)
• Vehicle to grid (V2G)
• Vehicle to load (V2L)
• Vehicle to vehicle (V2V)
V2X charge/discharge uses a V2X device.
CH-38Charging

WARNING
• Always use a quick charger/V2X de- vice that is compatible with the LEAF.
Using an incompatible quick
charger/V2X device may cause a fire
or malfunction resulting in serious
personal injury or death.
• Before starting the quick charge/ V2X charge, carefully read the in-
structions provided on the quick
charger/V2X device and make sure
the quick charge connector is prop-
erly connected and locked. Failure to
connect or operate the quick char-
ger correctly could cause damage to
the vehicle or the charging equip-
ment.
NOTE:
•Charging/discharging using quick
charge port is possible (even several
times a day) if the battery temperature
is not near the red zone. If the battery
temperature reaches the red zone, in
order to protect the battery, charging/
discharging is not allowed and the
power limitation mode will be triggered.
For additional information, refer to “Li-
ion battery temperature gauge” in the
“EV Overview” and “Instruments and
controls” section of this manual.
• When the Li-ion battery available
charge/discharge and the Li-ion bat-
tery capacity are shown on the quick
charger unit or V2X device, the readings
may differ from the Li-ion battery avail-
able charge/discharge/capacity read-
ing shown on the vehicle’s display. To start charging/discharging:
1. Push the P (Park) position switch to place
the vehicle in the P (Park) position and
apply the parking brake.
2. When charging/discharging the Li-ion battery, place the power switch in the
OFF position. When the power switch is
in the ON position, the Li-ion battery will
not start charging/discharging.
3. Open the charge port lid and charge port cap. For additional information, re-
fer to “Charge port lid” and “Charge port
cap” in the “Pre-driving checks and ad-
justments” section of this manual.
