CHARGING AFTER DRIVING
Charging the Li-ion battery
When you return home, connect the ve-
hicle to the charging device installed at
your home or the EVSE plugged to outlet
using the normal charge connector.
Charge the vehicle or set the charging
timer function to have the vehicle charge
at a specific time. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Charging timer” in the “Charg-
ing” section of this manual.1. When the power switch is turned off, the
settings of the charging timer, and the
Climate Ctrl. Timer and the charge con-
nector lock functions are displayed on
the vehicle information display. For addi-
tional information, refer to “Vehicle infor-
mation display” in the “Instruments and
controls” section of this manual.
2. Open the charge port lid and charge port cap. For additional information, re-
fer to “Charge port lid” in the “Pre-driving
checks and adjustments” section of this
manual. 3. Connect the charge connector to the
vehicle.
4. When the charging timer is turned on, charging starts at the set time. When the
charging timer is not turned on, charg-
ing starts immediately.
NOTE:
•Charging can be started remotely, even
if the charging timer is set up.
•
When you have forgotten to connect the
charge connector at home, there is a
function that can notif y you via a text
message capable cellular phone, internet
enabled smart phone or personal com-
puter. For additional information, refer to
“Charging related remote function” in the
“Charging” section of this manual (mod-
els with Navigation System).
• NISSAN recommends that you connect
the normal charge cable when getting
out of the vehicle, even if it is not going
to be used. By doing this, you can get
the most out of the remote climate con-
trol (models with Navigation System)
and Climate Ctrl. Timer functions the
next time you use the vehicle.

WARNING
• If you use any medical electric de- vices, such as an implantable car-
diac pacemaker or an implantable
cardiovascular defibrillator, check
with the electric medical device
manufacturer concerning the ef-
fects that charging may have on im-
planted devices before starting the
charge operation. Charging may af-
fect the operation.
• Make sure there is no water or for- eign materials in the charge port,
charge connector, or electrical plug,
and that they are not damaged or
affected by rust or corrosion. If any
of these conditions are noticeable,
do not charge the Li-ion battery. This
may result in a short circuit or elec-
tric shock and could cause a fire
which may result in serious personal
injury or death.
• To avoid serious personal injury or death when the Li-ion battery is
charging, be aware of the following
precautions. – Do not touch the metal contacts
of the charge port, charge con-
nector, electrical plug or Genuine
NISSAN Adapter.
– Do not touch the vehicle and EVSE when there is lightning.
– Do not pull, twist, bend, step on, or drag the cable.
• Make sure the charge connector is removed from the charge port be-
fore starting your vehicle. If the
charge connector is only partially
engaged and the connector latch is
unlocked, it is possible to place the
EV in the READY to drive position.
• Do not touch the plug or the Genuine NISSAN Adapter if they are wet or
with wet hands. Do not put the plug
or the Genuine NISSAN Adapter in
water, liquid or snow. This may cause
an electric shock which may result in
serious personal injury or death.
• Do not disassemble or modif y the charge port, the EVSE or the Genuine
NISSAN Adapter. This may cause a
fire or an electric shock which may
result in serious personal injury or
death. • If you notice an unusual odor, smoke
or abnormal noises coming from the
vehicle, stop charging immediately.
• Be careful not to allow your hands, hair, jewelry or clothing to come into
contact with, or get caught in, the
traction motor cooling fan. The cool-
ing fan can start at any time during
charging.
• Do not use extension cords or adapters unless they are Genuine
NISSAN parts.
• Do not use the Genuine NISSAN Adapter with any devices except the
Genuine NISSAN EVSE.
• Do not allow an unattended child to handle or use this product.
•
Use the EVSE with outlet and wiring
installed according to the regulations/
standards.
• 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.
PRECAUTIONS ON CHARGING
CH-2Charging
NOTE:
•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.
• For your safety, if the charge connector
is connected to the vehicle while the
power switch is in the READY to drive,
the vehicle will automatically switch to
the ON position. Because charging will
not be started while the power switch is
in this position, be sure to place the
power switch in the OFF position.
• When the ambient temperature is 32°F
(0°C) or less, charging time may be lon-
ger than normal and the level to which
the Li-ion battery can be charged may
be less than at higher temperatures.
• Do not operate the charging timer re-
peatedly while the charge connector is
connected to the vehicle af ter the Li-ion
battery charging is completed. Doing so
may discharge the 12-volt battery. For
additional information, refer to “Charg-
ing timer” in this section. If the Li-ion
battery becomes discharged, charge it
immediately. •
The power switch can be set to the ON
position and the climate control and
navigation system (if so equipped) can
be used while the Li-ion battery is
charging. However, because these op-
erations consume Li-ion battery power,
it will take longer for the Li-ion battery
to become fully charged. Place the
power switch in the OFF position to help
reduce Li-ion battery charge time.
• If electrical power is interrupted while
charging, charging restarts automati-
cally when the electrical power is re-
stored.
• It is recommended to keep the charge
cable connected to save Li-ion battery
power, when the heater and air condi-
tioner are operating with remote opera-
tion (models with Navigation System).
• If the charge port is frozen, melt the ice
using a hair dryer. Af ter the ice has
melted, charge the Li-ion battery. Forc-
ing the charge connector to connect
may cause a malfunction. •
If foreign materials have entered the
charge connector and charge port and
it is not possible to connect it, do not
attempt to force the connection. It is
recommended that you visit a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer. Forcing the
charge connector to connect may
cause damage to the charging equip-
ment and vehicle.
• There is a hole on the charge port for
water drainage. If the water drainage
hole becomes blocked, or if water gets
trapped inside the charge port, do not
charge. It is recommended that you visit
a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.
CH-4Charging
4. Connect the charge connector to thecharge port. If it is connected normally, a
beep will sound once.
5. If charging has started or if the battery is waiting for the charging timer, a beep
will sound twice and the charging status
indicator light display will change. For
additional information, refer to “Charg-
ing status indicator lights” in this section. To stop normal charge:
1. Ensure that the charge connector lock is
not engaged. For additional information,
refer to “Charge connector lock system”
in this section.
2. Press the button on the charge connec- tor, release the lock and remove the
charge connector from the charge port
and properly store it.
3. Close the charge port cap.
4. Af ter closing the charge port 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 TRICKLE CHARGE
(AC 110–120 VOLT) BY L1 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 defibrilla-
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.
