WHEN READING THE MANUAL

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 il- luminate in a specific pattern when the
Li-ion battery warmer operates. The
charging status indicator lights use the
same pattern to indicate 12-volt bat-
tery charging, Climate Ctrl. Timer op-
eration or Remote Climate Control op-
eration (models with Navigation
System). The charging status indicator
lights do not change if the Li-ion bat-
tery warmer operates at the same time
as the above features. For additional
information, refer to “Charging status
indicator lights” in the “Charging” sec-
tion 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
temperatures.
• 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 re- duced when using the Climate Ctrl.
Timer or Remote Climate Control
(models with Navigation System) while
the Li-ion battery 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 op-
erate if the normal charger is not con-
nected to the vehicle. To help prevent
the Li-ion battery from freezing, do not
leave the vehicle in an environment if
temperatures may go below -4°F
(-20°C) unless the vehicle is connected
to a charger.
The Li-ion battery warmer helps to prevent
the Li-ion battery from freezing when the
temperature is cold. The Li-ion battery
warmer automatically turns on when the
Li-ion battery temperature is approxi-
mately -4°F (-20°C) or colder and outside
temperature is approximately -11°F (-24°C)
or colder. The Li-ion battery warmer auto-
matically turns off when the Li-ion battery
temperature is approximately 0°F (-18°C) or
higher, or outside temperature is approxi-
mately -8°F (-22°C) or higher.
The Li-ion battery warmer operates when
the normal charger is connected to the
vehicle, and it automatically uses electrical
power from either the external source or
from the Li-ion battery.
EV-6EV Overview

NOTE:
• Connect the charger to the vehicle andplace the power switch in the OFF po-
sition when parking the vehicle if tem-
peratures may go below -4°F (-20°C).
The Li-ion battery warmer automati-
cally uses electrical power from either
the external source or from the Li-ion
battery, based on the amount of re-
maining Li-ion battery.
• The charging status indicator lights il- luminate in a specific pattern when the
Li-ion battery warmer operates. The
charging status indicator lights use the
same pattern to indicate 12–volt bat-
tery charging, Climate Ctrl. Timer op-
eration or Remote Climate Control op-
eration (models with Navigation
System). The charging status indicator
lights do not change if the Li-ion bat-
tery warmer operates at the same time
as the above features. For additional
information, refer to “Charging status
indicator lights” in the “Charging” sec-
tion of this manual. • The automatic climate control auto-
matically turns on when the Li-ion bat-
tery warmer uses electrical power
from the Li-ion battery. This is not a
malfunction. When the Li-ion battery
warmer operates, the temperature in-
side the vehicle may be warmed up.
• The Li-ion battery will be automatically charged when the Li-ion battery
warmer uses electrical power from an
extended source. When outside tem-
perature goes below -4°F (-20°C) for
many days, frequent Li-ion battery
warmer operation may occur, and
more electric power will be charged
from an external source. Do not con-
nect the normal charger to the vehicle
if you do not want to turn on the Li-ion
battery warmer. In this case, do not
leave the vehicle in an environment if
temperatures may go below -4°F
(-20°C).
• When the Li-ion battery warmer is al- ready in operation using an external
source, it will continue to use the exter-
nal power even if the power switch is
placed in the ON position. • The Li-ion battery warmer will stop if
the power switch is placed in the ON
position while the Li-ion battery
warmer is using electrical power from
the Li-ion battery. To turn on the Li-ion
battery warmer again, place the power
switch in the OFF position.
• The Li-ion battery warmer will stop if the charging connector is removed
from the normal charger while the Li-
ion battery warmer is operating. To
turn on the Li-ion battery warmer
again, connect the charging connector
to the vehicle. The Li-ion battery
warmer will operate again af ter about
1 hour.
• 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 op-
erating. 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.
EV OverviewEV-7

• The predicted charging time displayedon 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 mal-
function.
• The Li-ion battery may not be charged to the expected level using the charg-
ing timer while the Li-ion battery
warmer operates.
• If the Li-ion battery warmer automati- cally stops because of the Li-ion bat-
tery temperature or outside tempera-
ture change, charging will continue
until the Li-ion battery is fully charged.HIGH-VOLTAGE COMPONENTS
WARNING
• The EV system uses high voltage up
to approximately DC 400 volt. The
system can be hot during and af ter
starting and when the vehicle is shut
off. Be careful of both the high volt-
age and the high temperature. Fol-
low the warning labels that are at-
tached to the vehicle.
• Never disassemble, remove or re-
place high-voltage parts and cables
as well as their connectors because
they can cause severe burns or elec-
tric shock that may result in serious
injury or death. High-voltage cables
are colored orange. The vehicle high
voltage system has no user service-
able parts. It is recommended that
you take your vehicle to a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer for any neces-
sary maintenance.
HIGH VOLTAGE PRECAUTIONS
EV-8EV Overview

• Normal charge uses the charging device(AC 220 - 240 volt, 16A or 32A) that can be
installed in your home to charge the Li-
ion battery.
• Immediate charge, charging timer and remote charge (models with Navigation
System) can be performed in the normal
charge mode. For additional information,
refer to “Charging methods” in this sec-
tion.
• The charging equipment communicates with the vehicle before Li-ion battery
charging starts. If this communication
does not occur because other equip-
ment is used, the Li-ion battery will not
charge.
• NISSAN recommends that you connect the charging device 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 control (mod-
els with Navigation System) and Climate
Ctrl. Timer functions the next time you
use the vehicle.To start normal charge:
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 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.
