2023 NISSAN LEAF navigation system

*1: V2X (Vehicle to Everything); The EV sup-
plies electric power to a home or a building,
etc. e.g. Vehicle to Home (V2H), Vehicle to
Building (V2B), Vehicle to Grid (V2G), Vehicle
to Load (V2L), Vehicle to Vehicle (V2V).BEFORE DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE
(models with Navigation System)
The Li-ion battery charging status and the
Li-ion battery warmer (if so equipped) op-
eration can be checked using an internet
enabled smart phone or personal com-
puter at home. You may also choose tohave SMS messages (text messages) sent
to a cellular phone. Additionally, the vehi-
cle’s heater and air conditioner can be set
to operate using the Climate Ctrl. Timer
function or A/C-heater remote function, if
necessary. For additional information, see
“Remote climate control” (P. 4-41).

5. Check the Li-ion battery level and theestimated driving range shown on the
meter. For additional information, see
“Driving range” (P. 2-8).
NOTE:
• For additional information, see “Driv-ing range”(P. 2-8).
• Before driving, compare the driving distance to the destination displayed
on the navigation system screen (if so
equipped) with the estimated driving
range shown on the meter. Determine
if it will be necessary to charge the Li-
ion battery before or while driving to
your planned destination.
• If it is necessary to charge the Li-ion battery, use the navigation system (if
so equipped) to search for available
charging stations on your planned
driving route.
DRIVING THE VEHICLE
1. Depress the brake pedalO1.
2. Release the parking brake
O2.
3. Move the shif t lever
O3into the D (Drive)
position. When released, the shif t lever
returns to its original center position.
4. Confirm that the vehicle is in the D (Drive) position. The indicator next to the “D” by
the shif t lever illuminates and “D” is dis-
played on the meter. 5. Release the brake pedal.
6. Depress the accelerator pedal and start
driving.

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 driving range are displayed on the vehicle information
display. For additional information, 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.

• For your safety, if the charge connectoris 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

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).

To start trickle charging:
NOTE:
Charging timer, remote charge (models
with navigation system) and immediate
charge can be performed in the trickle
charge mode. For additional informa-
tion, see “Charging methods” (P. CH-43).
1. Push the P (Park) position switch to placethe 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. For additional information, see “Charge port lid”
(P. 3-20).
4. Take out the EVSE from the rear hatch.
5. Connect the electrical plug to the AC 110 - 120 volt, 15A dedicated electrical outlet.
If it is connected normally, the green light
on the EVSE control box indicator light
illuminates.
NOTE:You can pass a cord through the holes
OAin the control box in order to hang it
up while the Li-ion battery is charging.
Use the EVSE with the plug in an up-
right position (the cord should extend
down from the outlet).
6. Open the charge port cap. For additional information, see “Charge port cap”
(P. 3-22).
