The LEAF is an electric vehicle. Some of the vehicle’s systems operate differently and have different operating characteristics than vehicles equipped with an internal combustion engine. It is important to carefully review the entire Owner’s Manual for this reason. The main difference is the LEAF is powered by electricity. The LEAF does not req[...]

NO TE: • If the outside temperature is −13°F (−25°C) or less, the Li-ion battery may freeze and it cannot be charged or provide power to run the vehicle. Move the vehicle to a warm location. • The capacity of the Li-ion battery in your vehicle to hold a charge will, like all such batteries, decrease with time and usage. As the battery age[...]

There are three levels of information that will be displayed as the Li-ion battery becomes dis- charged: 1. The following warning lights illuminate on the instrument panel and messages are displayed on the vehicle information display at the same time to indicate low Li-ion battery charge: • The low battery charge warning light • The master warn[...]

Push the power switch to t[...]

A T HOME AFTER DRIVING Charging the Li-ion battery When you return home, connect the vehicle to the charging station installed at your home using the normal charge connector. Charge the vehicle or set the charging timer function to have the vehicle charge at a specific time. See “Charging timer” in the “Charge” sec- tion. 1. When the power [...]

RANGE The distance you can drive the vehicle (range) varies considerably depending upon available charge, weather, temperature, usage, battery age, topography , and driving style. V ehicle range depends on a number of factors. When the Li-ion battery is new, the estimated vehicle range with a fully charged Li-ion battery is approximately 100 miles [...]

• Release the accelerator pedal to slow down and do not apply the brakes when traffic and road conditions allow . – This vehicle is equipped with a regenerative brake system. The primary purpose of re- generative brake system is to provide some power to recharge the Li-ion battery and extend driving range. A secondary benefit is “engine braki[...]

LI-ION BA TTERY MAINTENANCE In addition to the regular maintenance recom- mended by NISSAN, the LEAF requires some special Li-ion battery inspections. • See the NISSAN Warranty Information Booklet for significant limitations, exclusions and pos- sible voiding of your warranty resulting from failure to have these necessary inspections, re- pairs a[...]

CH-6 Charging[...]

This vehicle is an electric vehicle and it requires electricity to operate. The Li-ion battery is the only source of power to operate the vehicle. It is important to conserve power and plan your charging needs when you drive to avoid com- pletely discharging the Li-ion battery and being unable to drive. There are three methods available to charge t[...]

hardware and software differences. NISSAN is working with state, municipalities utility compa- nies and others to assist in the preparation of markets and infrastructure, but makes no repre- sentations that public charging stations will be available in locations where you wish to operate the vehicle, nor can NISSAN predict the period of time it may[...]

Checking Li-ion battery charge The three methods for checking amount of charge are as follows. • Check by using the Li-ion battery available charge gauge on the meter when the power switch is placed in the ON position. See “Li-ion battery available charge gauge” in the “Instru- ments and controls” section and “Li-ion battery low charge [...]

• The Genuine NISSAN charging equipment communicates with the vehicle before Li-ion battery charging starts. If this communication does not occur because other equipment is used, the Li-ion battery will not charge. • NISSAN recommends that you connect the normal charge cable when getting out of the vehicle, even if it is not going to be used. B[...]

NO TE: • T o stop charging mid-charge, remove the charge connector. Charging automatically stops.

There are three basic types of child restraint systems: • Rear-facing child restraint • Forward-facing child restraint • Booster seat The proper restraint depends on the child’s size. Generally , infants up to about 1 year and less than 20 lb (9 kg) should be placed in rear-facing child restraints. Forward-facing child restraints are availa[...]

placed in a commercially available booster seat to obtain proper seat belt fit. For a seat belt to fit properly , the booster seat should raise the child so that the shoulder belt is properly positioned across the chest and the top, middle portion of the shoulder.
