CH-4 Charging
NOTE:
. When charging the Li-ion battery, place
the power switch in the OFF position.
When the power switch is in the ON
position, the Li-ion battery will not start
charging.
. If the charger is connected to the
vehicle when it is in the READY to drive
position, the power switch automati-
cally changes to the ON position. Place
the power switch in the OFF position to
begin charging.
. For your safety, if the charger is con-
nected to the vehicle while the power
switch is in the READY to drive posi-
tion, 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 328F
(08C) or less, charging time may be
longer than normal and the level to
which the Li-ion battery can be charged
may be less than at higher tempera-
tures.
. If vehicle will not be used for long
period of time:
a. NISSAN recommends charging with
long life mode.
b. Charge once every 3 months.
For details of the long life mode
charging method, see “Charging timer”
later in this section. If the Li-ion battery
becomes discharged, charge it imme-
diately.
. The power switch can be set to ON
position and the climate control and
navigation system can be used while
the Li-ion battery is charging. However,
because these operations 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.
. If the charge port is frozen, melt the ice
using a hair drier. After the ice has
melted, charge the Li-ion battery. For-
cing 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. Con-
tact a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.
Forcing the charge connector to con-
nect may cause damage to the char-
ging equipment 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. Contact a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer.
