b. Place the EVSE into the case.
c. Pass the lower side belt from thecase through the fastener on the
bottom of the luggage board.
d. Hang the hook from the case to the ring from the trim.
e. Fix the belt with the hook-and- loop fastener on the case, pulling
the belt from the case.
WARNING
Pass the lower side belt of the EVSE
case securely through the fastener on
the bottom of the luggage board. If the
case suddenly becomes loose, it may
cause serious injury or death.
6. Af ter closing the cap on the charge port,close the charge port lid.
NOTE:
To stop charging mid-charge, remove
the charge connector. Charging auto-
matically stops.

HOW TO NORMAL CHARGE
(AC 220–240 VOLT) BY L1 & L2 EVSE
WARNING
• If you wear a pacemaker or an im- plantable cardiovascular defibrilla-
tor (ICD), stay at least 6 in (15 cm)
away from the EVSE. • If you wear a pacemaker or an im-
plantable cardiovascular defibrila-
tor (ICD), check with the electric
medical device manufacturer con-
cerning the effects that charging
may have on implanted devices be-
fore starting the charge operation.
Charging may affect the operation.
• In order to avoid an electric shock or fire due to a short circuit, connect to
a GFI (Ground Fault Interrupter) cir-
cuit breaker and use a waterproof
electrical ground socket.
• Discontinue EVSE use immediately if plug or outlet becomes hot to the
touch or if you notice any unusual
odors.
• Never use extension cords or plug adapters with EVSE.
• Always unplug the charger when not in use. • The NISSAN Genuine L1 &L2 EVSE
draws 30 amps continuously while
charging the Li-ion battery with AC
220–240 volt outlet. Do not plug in to
any electrical circuit unless it is in-
spected by a qualified electrician to
confirm that the electrical circuit can
accept a 30 amp draw. Any electrical
circuit has a much higher likelihood
of being compromised in the follow-
ing conditions listed below.
– Improper use of the EVSE may re-sult in a fire and serious injury or
death.
– Do not use the EVSE in structures more than 40 years old.
– Do not use the EVSE in structures using fuse-based circuit protec-
tion. Use only with electrical cir-
cuits protected by circuit break-
ers.
– Do not use the EVSE on electrical circuits with two-prong outlets.
– Do not use the EVSE if other de- vices are plugged into the same
circuit.
– When unplugging, be sure to pull by the plug and not the cord.
– Do not pull, twist, bend, step on or drag the cable.

– If you use the EVSE holder, handleit with care to avoid injuries due to
contact with its edges or other
parts.
– Do not use the EVSE if the cable or cord is frayed, has broken insula-
tion, or shows any other indica-
tions of damage.
– Stop using the EVSE immediately if charging stops before comple-
tion when you move the plug or
cord.
– Do not use the EVSE if the control box, plug, the EVSE or charge con-
nector is broken, cracked, open,
corroded or shows any other indi-
cations of damage.
– Do not use the EVSE if the plug has a loose connection with the outlet
or if the outlet is damaged or
rusted.
– Before you connect the EVSE, be sure to check the rated current
shown on the EVSE to ensure that
the outlet and circuit have enough
current capacity to charge your
vehicle safely. If the capacity of
the outlet and circuit is not
enough, wiring may cause over-
heating or a fire. – If in any doubt about the outlet
and circuit, consult a qualified
electrician.
– The EVSE has parts that may spark inside. Do not use it where
gasoline, paint, or flammable liq-
uids are used or stored.
– Do not use if a malfunction occurs or if the EVSE has been damaged
in any manner. It is recommended
that you visit a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer for replacement.
– The EVSE contains no user ser- viceable parts. Do not attempt to
repair the EVSE, doing so will void
your warranty.
• Pass the lower side belt of the EVSE case securely through the fastener
on the bottom of the luggage board.
If the case suddenly becomes loose,
it may cause serious injury or death.CAUTION
• Only charge using a standard AC 220 - 240 volt, 50A dedicated electrical
outlet (for example, do not use an
electric generator). Failure to do so
may cause charging to fail and could
cause damage to the vehicle or the
EVSE due to power surges.
• NISSAN recommends using Genuine NISSAN charging equipment to
charge the vehicle. Using non-
NISSAN equipment could cause the
Li-ion battery to not charge cor-
rectly and may damage the vehicle
or the EVSE.

Precautions on storage
• Do not store the EVSE in a place exposedto direct sunlight.
• Do not store the EVSE in a place exposed to wind or rain.
•
Be sure to store the EVSE with the protec-
tive cap on to keep the terminal of the
charge connector away from dirt and dust.
•Do not store the EVSE with the cable and/or
cord wound around the control box.
• Do not store the EVSE in a condition in which the cable and/or cord are twisted.
• The control box will become hot while the EVSE is charging. This is not a malfunction.
• Normal charge (AC 220-240 volt) by L1 & L2 EVSE is performed using an AC 220 -
240 volt, 50A dedicated electrical outlet
using the L1 & L2 EVSE provided with the
vehicle.
ChargingCH-27

NEMA 14–50 outlet and plug
120V/240V EVSE (L1/L2) plug must be connected to a NEMA 14–50 outlet that is connected
to a single phase power supply obtained from a delta connection.
If connected to another type of power supply, EVSE will not work normally.
CH-28Charging

Correct electric outlet connection
If connected to three phase power supply, EVSE does not work normally.
ChargingCH-29

Incorrect electric outlet connection
If EVSE is connected to this miswired outlet, EVSE does not work and the POWER indicator
light (orange) on the EVSE control box will blink.
CH-30Charging

To start normal charging:
NOTE:
Charging timer, remote charge (models
with navigation system) and immediate
charge can be performed in the normal
charge mode. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Charging methods” in this
section.1. Push the P (Park) position switch to place
the vehicle in the P (Park) position and
apply the parking brake.
2. When charging the Li-ion battery, place the power switch in the OFF position.
When the power switch is in the ON po-
sition, the Li-ion battery will not start
charging.
3. Open the charge port lid. For additional information, refer to “Charge port lid” in
the “Pre-driving checks and adjust-
ments” section of this manual.
