Some day-to-day and regular mainte-
nance is essential to maintain your vehicle
good mechanical condition, and its Electric
Vehicle (EV) system performance.
It is the owner's responsibility to make sure
that the scheduled maintenance, and gen-
eral maintenance, is performed.
As the vehicle owner, you are the only one
who can ensure that your vehicle receives
proper maintenance. You are a vital link in
the maintenance chain.
GENERAL MAINTENANCE
General maintenance includes those items
which should be checked during normal
day-to-day operation. They are essential
for proper vehicle operation. It is your re-
sponsibility to perform these procedures
regularly as prescribed.
Performing general maintenance checks
requires minimal mechanical skill and only
a few general automotive tools.
These checks or inspections can be done
by yourself, a qualified technician or, if you
prefer, a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.
SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
The maintenance items listed in this sec-
tion are required to be serviced at regular
intervals. However under severe driving
conditions, additional or more frequent
maintenance will be required.
WHERE TO GO FOR SERVICE
If maintenance service is required or your
vehicle appears to malfunction, have the
systems checked and serviced. It is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer for this service.
NISSAN technicians are well-trained spe-
cialists and are kept up-to-date with the
latest service information through techni-
cal bulletins, service tips, and training pro-
grams. They are fully qualified to work on
NISSAN vehicles before work begins.
If your vehicle is involved in a collision, it is
recommended that you ask your NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer where the nearest
NISSAN Certified Collision Center is located,
or go to http://collision.nissanusa.com.
You can be confident that a NISSAN certi-
fied LEAF dealer's service department per-
forms the best job to meet the mainte-
nance requirements on your vehicle.
During the normal day-to-day operation of
the vehicle, general maintenance should
be performed regularly as prescribed in
this section. If you detect any unusual
sounds, vibrations or smells, be sure to
check for the cause or have a NISSAN cer-
tified LEAF dealer check it promptly. In ad-
dition, it is recommended that you visit a
NISSAN certified LEAF dealer if you think
that repairs are required.
When performing any checks or mainte-
nance work, closely observe the “Mainte-
nance precautions” (P. 8-2).
