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, see “Charging timer” (P. CH-43).
1. When the power switch is turned off, thesettings of the charging timer, the Cli-
mate Ctrl. Timer and the charge connec-
tor lock functions and the current state of charge are displayed on the vehicle
information display. For additional infor-
mation, see “Timer display” (P. CH-46).
2. Open the charge port lid and charge port cap. For additional information, see
“Charge port lid” (P. 3-20).
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, evenif 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, inter-
net enabled smart phone or personal
computer. For additional information,
see “Charging related remote function”
(P. CH-48) (models 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
control (models with Navigation Sys-
tem) 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 cardiac
pacemaker or an implantable cardio-
vascular defibrillator, check with the
electric medical device manufac-
turer concerning the effects that
charging may have on implanted de-
vices before starting the charge op-
eration. Charging may affect 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 electric
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 connec-
tor, 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 before
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 adapt-
ers 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, placethe power switch in the OFF position.
When the power switch is in the ON
position, 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. Do-
ing so may discharge the 12-volt bat-
tery. For additional information, see
“Charging timer” (P. CH-43). 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
restored.
• 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 op-
eration (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

To stop normal charge:
1. Ensure that the charge connector lock isnot engaged. For additional information,
see “Charge connector lock system”
(P. CH-41).
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) circuit
breaker and use a waterproof electri-
cal 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 EVSE when not in
use.
• The Genuine NISSAN L1 EVSE charg-
ing device draws 12 amps continu-
ously while charging the Li-ion bat-
tery with AC 110–120 volt outlet. Do
not plug in to any electrical circuit
unless it is inspected by a qualified
electrician to confirm that the elec-
trical circuit can accept a 12 amp
draw. Any electrical circuit has a
much higher likelihood of being
compromised in the following condi-
tions 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.
