2022 NISSAN LEAF lights

CAUTION
Do not use any charging equipment
that is not compatible with the LEAF.
Doing so could prevent the Li-ion bat-
tery from charging properly or could
result in damage to the vehicle or Li-ion
battery.
• 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,
see “Charging methods” (P. CH-43).
• 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, see
“Charge port lid” (P. 3-20) and “Charge
port cap” (P. 3-22). 4. Connect the charge connector to the
charge 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, see “Charging
status indicator lights” (P. CH-49).

9. If charging has started, or if the Li-ion battery is waiting for the charging timer,
a beep will sound twice and the charg-
ing status indicator light display will
change. For additional information, see
“Charging status indicator lights”
(P. CH-49). 10. When recharging outside, such as in
your driveway, use a commercially

5. Grasp the lock lever and lock the chargeconnector.
6. Follow the instructions on the quick charge equipment. When the equip-
ment is properly installed and ready to
charge a beep sounds twice and the
charging status indicator light will
change. For additional information, see
“Charging status indicator lights”
(P. CH-49).
Charging ends in the following situations:
• When charging is complete
• When the possible charge time set for the quick charger is exceeded
NOTE:
• Charging may automatically stop even if it is not completed.
• If charging stops mid-charge, you can restart charging by pressing the start
button on the quick charger again.
• The charge connector is locked to the charge port during charging and can-
not be disconnected. Follow the in-
structions on the quick charge equip-
ment to stop charging. Confirm
charging is stopped by looking at the
indicators on the instrument panel.
The charge connector can be discon-
nected from the vehicle when charging
is stopped.
• When quick charging, the Li-ion bat- tery charging rate is slower as the per-
centage of available battery charge
increases. To finish charging:
1. Confirm charging is stopped by looking
at the indicators on the instrument
panel. The charge connector can be dis-
connected from the vehicle when charg-
ing is stopped.
2. Unlock the charge connector, remove from the vehicle and properly store it.
3. Close the quick charge port cap.
4. Shut the charge port lid.

5. Grasp the lock lever and lock the chargeconnector.
6. Follow the instructions on the quick charge equipment, or the V2X device, to
start charging. When the equipment or
V2X is properly installed and ready to
charge/discharge, a beep sounds twice
and the charging status indicator light
will change. For additional information,
see “Charging status indicator lights”
(P. CH-49). Charging/discharging ends in the follow-
ing situations:
• When charging is complete
• When the possible charge time set for the
quick charger is exceeded
NOTE:
• Charging/discharging may automati- cally stop even if it is not completed.
• If charging stops mid-charge, you can restart charging by pressing the start
button on the quick charger again.
• The charge connector is locked to the charge port during charging/
discharging and cannot be discon-
nected. Follow the instructions on the
quick charge equipment or the V2X de-
vice to stop charging/discharging.
Confirm charging/discharging is
stopped by looking at the indicators on
the instrument panel. The charge con-
nector can be disconnected from the
vehicle when charging is stopped.
• When V2X charging, the Li-ion battery charging rate is slower as the percent-
age of available battery charge
increases. To finish charging/discharging:
1. Confirm charging/discharging is
stopped by looking at the indicators on
the instrument panel. The charge con-
nector can be disconnected from the
vehicle when charging/discharging is
stopped.
2. Unlock the charge connector, remove from the vehicle and properly store it.
3. Close the quick charge port cap.

you want to start charging when a charg-
ing timer is turned on by performing the
following:
1. Place the power switch in the OFFposition.
2. Push the immediate charge switch.
3. Connect the normal or trickle chargecable when the charging status indica-
tor light changes to display immediate
charge mode. For additional informa-
tion, see “Charging status indicator
lights” (P. CH-49).
NOTE:
• You have 15 minutes to connect a nor-mal or trickle charge connector to the
vehicle af ter the immediate charge
switch is pushed. If a charge connector
is not connected to the vehicle within
15 minutes, the vehicle automatically
returns to the previous setting.
•
To cancel immediate charge mode push
the immediate charge switch again.
• If the charge cable is disconnected, the Li-ion battery automatically switches
to charging timer. To perform an im-
mediate charge again, push the imme-
diate charge switch and connect the
charge cable.
• If the charge cable is already con- nected, push the immediate charge
switch to start performing an immedi-
ate charge.
