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 warning” in the “Instruments and
controls” section.
• Check by using a cellular phone, smart phone or
personal computer. See LEAF Navigation Sys-
tem Owner’s Manual (models with navigation
system) .
• Check by using the charging status indicator
light. See “Charging status indicator light”.
NOTE:
•During the charge operation, charge con-
tinues when the power switch is placed in
the ON position.
•The Li-ion battery cannot be charged if the
quick charge connector and the normal
charge connector are connected at the
same time. If another charge connector is
connected mid-charge, charging will stop.•For safety reasons, it is not possible to
switch to the READY to drive position
while a charge connector is connected.
•During charging, it is possible that the
radio may be inaudible due to noise by the
electromagnetic wave.
HOW TO NORMAL CHARGE
WARNING
• If you use any medical electric devices,
such as an implantable cardiac pace-
maker or an implantable cardiovascu-
lar defibrillator, check with the electric
medical device manufacturer concern-
ing the effects that charging may have
on implanted devices before starting
the charge operation. Charging may
affect the operation.
• If you have an implantable cardiac
pacemaker or an implantable cardio-
vascular defibrillator, while the Li-ion
battery is charging:
– Do not stay inside the vehicle.
– Do not go inside the vehicle, for ex-
ample to remove or place an item in
the passenger compartment.– Do not open the rear hatch, for ex-
ample to remove or place an item in
the cargo area.
Charging may affect the operation of
electric medical device and result in
serious personal injury or death.
• Be sure to follow the precautions for
using the charger that can be installed
in your home. Failing to do so could
result in serious injury or death.
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, 20A) 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. See
“Charging methods”.

NISSAN INTELLIGENT KEY® SYSTEM
3-6Pre-driving checks and adjustments

In such cases, correct the operating conditions
before using the Intelligent Key function or use
the mechanical key.
Although the life of the battery varies depending
on the operating conditions, the battery’s life is
approximately 2 years. If the battery is dis-
charged, replace it with a new one.
When the Intelligent Key battery is almost dis-
charged, firmly apply the foot brake and touch the
power switch with the Intelligent Key. Then push
the power switch while depressing the brake
pedal within 10 seconds after the chime sound.
Since the Intelligent Key is continuously receiving
radio waves, if the key is left near equipment that
transmits strong radio waves, such as signals
from a TV or personal computer, the battery life
may become shorter.
For information regarding replacement of a bat-
tery, see “Key battery replacement” in the “Main-
tenance and do-it-yourself” section.
