NOTE:
Components with white number in black background are high voltage components.No. Component
LocationDescription
a Charge
port Under hood Connecting port for EVSE (Electric Vehicle
Supply Equipment) . Two ports are available:
Normal charge and quick charge (if so
equipped) .
b High voltage
cables Under hood and
undercarriage Orange-colored power cables carry high volt-
age current between each of the high voltage
components.
c Traction Motor Under hood Converts three-phase AC power to drive
power (torque) which propels the vehicle.
Inverter Under hood Converts the DC power stored in the Li-ion
battery to three-phase AC power and controls
motor torque (revolution) by regulating the
motor current.
Electric air condi-
tioner compressor Under hood
Air conditioner compressor
Power Distribution
Module (PDM)
• On Board Charger
• DC/DC Converter
• High voltage junction box (J/B) Under hood
The PDM includes an On Board Charger, DC/DC
converter and high voltage junction box (J/B) .
The On Board Charger converts single-phase AC
power from a home power outlet to DC power and
increases the voltage in order to charge the Li-ion
battery.
The DC/DC converter reduces the voltage of the Li-ion
battery to provide power to the 12V battery in order to
operate the vehicle’s electric components (headlights,
audio system, etc.) .
The J/B provides electric power from the Li-ion battery
to all high voltage parts of the vehicle.
d 12V Battery Under hood A lead-acid battery that supplies power to the low
voltage devices.
e Cabin heater Interior (This unit is
installed behind the
instrument panel) This is the electric heat source for the cabin
heater. It heats the interior of the vehicle.
f Li-ion (Lithium ion)
battery Undercarriage Stores and outputs DC power (Maximum voltage
398.4V) needed to propel the vehicle.
g High voltage battery
service disconnect Rear seat floor Isolates the battery from the rest of the high volt-
age electrical system.
h Brake power supply
backup unit Cargo area (This unit
is installed behind a
trim panel to prevent
access) Power supply backup unit for the brake system. It
supplies power to the brake system if a malfunc-
tion occurs in the 12V battery.

3. If possible, keep the Nissan Intelligent Key® at least 5
meters (16 feet) away from the vehicle to prevent
accidentally turning ON the EV system while the
roadside assistance is in progress.
3-4 Water Submersion Damage level of submerged vehicle may not be apparent. Handling a submerged
vehicle
without appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) will result in serious
injury or death from electrical shock. • The power switch of the submerged vehicle must be turned OFF first, if possible. Then
the
vehicle must be completely out of the water and drained to avoid electrical shock.
• If the vehicle is in the water, to avoid electrical shock do not touch the high voltage
components,
harnesses or service plug.
Only first responders wearing appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) should shut down the
vehicle. After shut down, standard towing/recovery procedures can be used. Refer to 4-3 Towing.
3-5
Vehicle Fire • Always utilize full Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and self-contained breathing
apparatus
during fire fighting operations. Smoke from a LEAF vehicle fire is similar to
smoke from a conventional vehicle fire.
• In the case of extinguishing a fire with water, large amounts of water from a fire hydrant (if possible) must be used. DO NOT extinguish fire with a small amount of water. In the event of a small fire, a Type ABC fire extinguisher may be used for an electrical fire
caused
by wiring harnesses, electrical components, etc. or oil fire.
In case of vehicle fire, contact fire department immediately and extinguish the fire if possible. If you must
walk away from the vehicle, notify an appropriate responder or a rescue person of the fact that the vehicle is
an electric car and contains a high voltage system and warn all others.

5. Storing the Vehicle
The service plug must be removed to shut down the high voltage system for storage.
Do
not store a vehicle inside a structure. Keep the vehicle away from other vehicles if the
li-ion battery is severely damaged. There is possibility of delayed fire from a severely
damaged li-ion battery.

5-1 Danger Sign Example
If
LEAF needs to be stored or left unattended, the high voltage system must be shut down by removing the
service plug (refer to 5-3 Removing the Service Plug) , and a sign put on the vehicle indicating it is an elec-
tric
vehicle with high voltage dangers. For example: AAYIA0020GB

For
protection from high voltage elec-
trical shock
Insulated shoes –

To remove the 12V battery terminal bolt.
Solvent resistant protection
gloves –
To utilize in the event of a Li-ion bat-
tery electrolytic solution leak.
Solvent resistant protection
shoes –
Absorbent pad The same pad used for internal
combustion engine fluids can be
used. To absorb any Li-ion battery electro-
lytic solution leakage.
Standard fire fighting equip-
ment Standard fire fighting equipment
Depending on type of fire (vehicle
or battery) use standard fire
fighting equipment (water or
extinguisher) . To extinguish a fire.
Insulated tape Insulating To cover any damaged harnesses to
protect from and prevent electrical
shock. Tape should cover all bare or
damaged wire.
5-2.1 Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Protective Wear Control
Perform an inspection of the Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) items before beginning work. Do not use
any damaged PPE items.
5-2.2 Daily Inspection
This inspection is performed before and after use. The worker who will be using the items should perform
the inspection and check for deterioration and damage. • Insulated rubber gloves should be inspected for scratches, holes and tears. (Visual check and airleakage test)
• Insulated safety boots should be inspected for holes, damage, nails, metal pieces, wear or other problems on the soles. (Visual check)
• Insulated rubber sheet should be inspected for tears. (Visual check)

5-2.3 Insulated Tools
When
performing work at locations where high voltage is applied (such as terminals) , use insulated tools
meeting 1,000V/300A specifications.
5-3 Removing the Service Plug • Do not remove the service plug without always wearing appropriate Personal
Protective
Equipment (PPE) to help protect the responder from serious injury or death
by electrical shock.
• Immediately cover the service plug socket with insulated tape. The Li-ion battery
retains
high voltage power even when the service plug is removed. To avoid electric
shock, DO NOT touch the terminals inside the socket. To avoid unintended reinstallation and risk of electrical shock and severe personal injury
or
death, the service plug should be securely stored away from the vehicle while the vehicle
is in storage.
1. Check the READY indicator status. If it is ON, the high voltage system is active.
2.
Place the selector lever in the Park (P) position.
3. Press the power switch once to turn OFF the high voltage system. Then verify whether the READY indicator is OFF.
4.
Insert a suitable tool (1) under the RH rear corner of the
access trim cover located on the floor behind the center
console. Pry up (2) and remove.
