HOW TO QUICK CHARGE (if so
equipped)
Quick charge uses public charging sta-
tions (up to 50 kW of power [for 40 kWh
battery models] / 100 kW of power [for 62
kWh battery models]) to charge the battery
in a short period of time.
WARNING
• Always use a quick charger that is
compatible with the LEAF. Using an
incompatible quick charger may
cause a fire or malfunction resulting
in serious personal injury or death.
• Before starting the quick charge,
carefully read the instructions pro-
vided on the quick charger and make
sure the quick charge connector is
properly connected and locked. Fail-
ure to connect or operate the quick
charger correctly could cause dam-
age to the vehicle or the charging
equipment.
NOTE:
• Quick charging is possible (even sev- eral times a day) if the battery tem-
perature is not near the red zone. If the
battery temperature reaches the red
zone, in order to protect the battery,
quick charging is not allowed and the
power limitation mode will be trig-
gered. For additional information, see
“Li-ion battery temperature gauge”
(P. 2-7).
• When the Li-ion battery available charge and the Li-ion battery capacity
are shown on the quick charger unit,
the readings may differ from the Li-ion
battery available charge/capacity
reading shown on the vehicle’s display.
LCH2206
ChargingCH-35

CAUTION
As the quick charge connector is
heavier in comparison to the other
charge connectors, allowing it to drop
could cause damage to the vehicle or
charge connector or personal injury.
When removing the connector, be sure
to pull it out 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.
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 instruc-
tions provided on the quick charger/
V2X device and make sure the quick
charge connector is properly con-
nected and locked. Failure to connect
or operate the quick charger cor-
rectly could cause damage to the ve-
hicle or the charging equipment.
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 trig-
gered. For additional information, see
“Li-ion battery temperature gauge”
(P. 2-7). • 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 read-
ings may differ from the Li-ion battery
available charge/discharge/capacity
reading shown on the vehicle’s display.

displayed.
• When the charging is set to start imme- diately af ter connecting the charge con-
nector to the vehicle, the start time is
displayed as “Charge Now”.
• While being charged, the time when the charging has actually started is displayed
as the start time. The end time is dis-
played according to the estimated
charging time that was calculated based
on the electrical power being supplied.
• For models with Li-ion battery warmer, the charging system calculates the elec-
trical power used by the battery warmer
when the Li-ion battery temperature is
low, and longer charging time will be
displayed.
• When “Chg. Timer Only at HOME” is set to ON (models with Navigation System) in
the EV Settings, the start time is displayed
only when the power switch is placed in
the OFF position at home. If the power
switch is placed in the OFF position other

cannot be charged to a full level within
the hours between the scheduled start
time and end time of the charging timer,
the charging time shows the time that
exceeds the scheduled hours in the
charging timer.
• If you need to confirm the estimated charging time depending on the avail-
able electrical power (supplied to the
charger), see the Estimated Charge Time
display. For additional information, see
“Meters and gauges” (P. 2-5).
NOTE:
• The displayed end time of charging is an estimation. The Li-ion battery may
not be charged to a full level by the
estimated end time.
• If the charging timer and the Climate Ctrl. timer are set to operate at the
same time, longer charging time will be
displayed or the Li-ion battery may not
be charged to a full level at the sched-
uled end time.
