NOTE:
•If the outside temperature is −13°F
(−25°C) or less, the Li-ion battery may
freeze and it cannot be charged or pro-
vide power to run the vehicle. Move the
vehicle to a warm location.
• The capacity of the Li-ion battery in
your vehicle to hold a charge will, like all
such batteries, decrease with time and
usage. As the battery ages and capacity
decreases, this will result in a decrease
from the vehicle’s initial mileage range.
This is normal, expected, and not in-
dicative of any defect in your Li-ion bat-
tery.
• The Li-ion battery has limited service
life, and when its charging capacity falls
below a specific level, the EV system
warning light will illuminate. Owners
should bring their vehicle in for inspec-
tion and possible battery replacement.
• It is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN certified LEAF dealer for infor-
mation about recycling or disposal of
the Li-ion battery. Do not attempt to re-
cycle or dispose of the Li-ion battery
yourself.
DRIVING WITH A DISCHARGED
LI-ION BATTERY
When a destination is set in the navigation
system (if so equipped) that exceeds the
available vehicle range, the navigation sys-
tem automatically searches the location of
nearby charging stations. When the nearby
charging station locations are displayed,
charge the Li-ion battery as soon as pos-
sible.
Warning lights illuminate on the instru-
ment panel and messages are displayed
on the vehicle information display to in-
form you that the Li-ion battery charge is
low. Instructions are also displayed on the
navigation system screen (if so equipped)
to direct you to nearby charging stations.
The vehicle's range is very limited when
these warning lights illuminate and mes-
sages are displayed. Follow the instruc-
tions on the navigation system screen (if so
equipped) and immediately charge the ve-
hicle at the nearest charging station.
There are three levels of information that
will be displayed as the Li-ion battery be-
comes discharged: 1. The following warning lights illuminate
on the instrument panel and messages
are displayed on the vehicle information
display at the same time to indicate low
Li-ion battery charge:
• The low battery charge indicator light
• The master warning light
EV OverviewEV-3

• The “Battery charge is low, Charge now”warning message is displayed on the
vehicle information display.
• Messages are displayed on the naviga- tion system screen (if so equipped).
• For additional information, refer to “Low battery charge indicator” in the “Instru-
ments and controls” section of this
manual.
• The driving range flashes
1.
NOTE:
Due to traffic conditions, it may be dif-
ficult to get to the charging station
suggested by the navigation system
(if so equipped). If the Li-ion battery is
almost completely discharged, drive
directly to the nearest charging sta-
tion.2. If the vehicle is driven and the Li-ion bat-
tery continues to discharge, the driving
range on the instrument panel changes
to “— — —”2.
Messages are displayed on the naviga-
tion system screen (if so equipped). For
additional information, refer to “Li-ion
battery available charge gauge” in the
“Instruments and controls” section of
this manual.
EV-4EV Overview

The Li-ion battery warmer uses electrical
power from an external source when a
charger is connected to the vehicle. The
Li-ion battery warmer uses electrical
power from the Li-ion battery when the
charger is not connected to the vehicle.
NOTE:
•Connect the charger to the vehicle and
place the power switch in the OFF posi-
tion when parking the vehicle if tem-
peratures may go below -1°F (-17°C). This
provides external power to the Li-ion
battery warmer when it operates and
does not discharge the Li-ion battery.
• The charging status indicator lights illu-
minate in a specific pattern when the
Li-ion battery warmer operates. The
charging status indicator lights use the
same pattern to indicate 12-volt battery
charging, Climate Ctrl. Timer operation
or Remote Climate Control operation
(models with Navigation System). The
charging status indicator lights do not
change if the Li-ion battery warmer op-
erates at the same time as the above
features. For additional information, re- fer to “Charging status indicator lights”
in the “Charging” section of this manual.
• The Li-ion battery warmer uses Li-ion
battery power to operate, even if the
vehicle is connected to a charger when:
– The vehicle's power switch is in the ON position.
– There is no electrical power being supplied to the charging equipment.
• When the Li-ion battery warmer is al-
ready in operation using an external
power source, it will continue to use the
external power even if the power switch
is placed in the ON position.
• Vehicle driving range is reduced if the
Li-ion battery warmer operates (Li-ion
battery temperature approximately
-1°F (-17°C) or colder) while driving the
vehicle. You may need to charge the Li-
ion battery sooner than in warmer tem-
peratures.
• The Li-ion battery requires more time to
charge when the Li-ion battery warmer
operates. •
The predicted charging time displayed
on the meter and navigation system (if
so equipped) increases when the Li-ion
battery warmer operates.
• Climate control performance is reduced
when using the Climate Ctrl. Timer or
Remote Climate Control (models with
Navigation System) while the Li-ion bat-
tery warmer operates.
• The Li-ion battery may not charge to
the expected level using the charging
timer while the Li-ion battery warmer
operates.
For models with 62 kWh battery
CAUTION
The Li-ion battery warmer does not
operate if the normal charger is not
connected to the vehicle. To help pre-
vent the Li-ion battery from freezing,
do not leave the vehicle in an environ-
ment if temperatures may go below
-4°F (-20°C) unless the vehicle is con-
nected to a charger.
EV-6EV Overview

•The Li-ion battery warmer will stop if
the charging connector of the quick
charger is connected to the vehicle
while the Li-ion battery warmer is oper-
ating. To turn on the Li-ion battery
warmer again, remove the charging
connector of the quick charger from the
vehicle.
• The Li-ion battery requires more time to
charge to the expected level when the
Li-ion battery warmer operates.
• The predicted charging time displayed
on the meter increases when the Li-ion
battery warmer uses electrical power
from the Li-ion battery.
• The Climate Ctrl. Timer or Remote Cli-
mate Control (models with Navigation
System) does not turn on while the
Li-ion battery warmer operates. This is
not a malfunction. •
The charging timer or remote charge
(models with Navigation System) does
not turn on while the Li-ion battery
warmer operates. This is not a malfunc-
tion.
• The Li-ion battery may not be charged
to the expected level using the charging
timer while the Li-ion battery warmer
operates.
• If the Li-ion battery warmer automati-
cally stops because of the Li-ion battery
temperature or outside temperature
change, charging will continue until the
Li-ion battery is fully charged.
EV-8EV Overview

NOTE:
•For additional information, refer to
“Range” in this section.
• Before driving, compare the driving dis-
tance to the destination displayed on
the navigation system screen (if so
equipped) with the estimated driving
range shown on the meter. Determine if
it will be necessary to charge the Li-ion
battery before or while driving to your
planned destination.
• If it is necessary to charge the Li-ion
battery, use the navigation system (if so
equipped) to search for available charg-
ing stations on your planned driving
route.
DRIVING THE VEHICLE
