CHARGING METHODS
ChargingCH-21

SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
Normal charge stops in the
middle of charging. There is no power coming from the outlet. There may have been a electrical power failure, or the breaker may have failed. Charging will resume
when the power source is reset.
The charge cable has been disconnected. Check that the charge cable has not been disconnected.
The release switch has been pressed. If the charge connector button is pressed for a long period of time, charging will be stopped.
Both the normal charge connector and the quick
charge connector were connected at the same
time. If the normal charge connector and the quick charge connector are connected at the same time,
charging will be stopped.
Charging timer end time has been reached. When charging timer is set and the charge end time is reached, charging will be stopped, even if the Li-ion battery is not fully charged.
The temperature of the Li-ion battery is too hot
or too cold to charge. Confirm the Li-ion battery temperature by checking the Li-ion battery temperature gauge. If the
gauge indicates the Li-ion battery is too hot (red zone) or too cold (blue zone) , charging is not pos-
sible. Allow the Li-ion battery to cool or warm up before charging. See “Li-ion battery temperature
gauge” in the “Instruments and controls” section.
Quick charge cannot be per- formed. Incorrect charge connector connection, not fully
inserted or may not be locked.
Check that the charge connector is connected correctly and that it is locked.
The self-diagnostic function of the quick charge
device returns a negative result. There is a possibility that the vehicle has a malfunction. Stop charging and contact a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer.
The power switch of the quick charger is off. Check the power switch of the quick charger.
Quick charge stops in the middle of charging Charging is stopped by the quick charge timer. Charging will stop depending on the timer function setting of the quick charge device. If you need to
charge the Li-ion battery more, start the charging procedure again.
The maximum time for quick charge is 30–60 minutes. If you need to charge the Li-ion battery for longer
than this, start the charging procedure again.
The power supply for the quick charger is off. Check whether the power supply for the quick charger is off.

The instant ECO driving level
1is displayed by
the number of bars that increase (more economi-
cal driving) or decrease (less economical driving)
depending on vehicle operation.
Long term ECO driving level
Long term ECO driving is indicated by ECO
TREE symbols. The longer the vehicle is operated
economically, the more segments of the large
ECO TREE symbol
2are displayed. When all of
the segments of the large ECO TREE symbol are
displayed, a small ECO TREE indicator
3is also
displayed, and the large ECO TREE symbol dis-
play is reset. The longer the vehicle is operated
economically, the more small ECO TREE sym-
bols are displayed. The ECO TREE symbols that
were illuminated while driving will turn off when
the vehicle power is turned off. The ECO TREE
symbols are stored in the navigation system to
show long term efficient vehicle operation.
To increase the ECO driving level and for information
about driving the vehicle efficiently, see “Improve
driving range” in the “EV overview” section.

gation System Owner’s Manual.
Instruments and controls2-11

When the low tire pressure warning light illumi-
nates, you should stop and adjust the tire pres-
sure to the recommended COLD tire pressure
shown on the Tire and Loading Information label.
The low tire pressure warning light does not
automatically turn off when the tire pressure is
adjusted. After the tire is inflated to the recom-
mended pressure, the vehicle must be driven at
speeds above 16 MPH (25 km/h) to activate the
TPMS and turn off the low tire pressure warning
light. Use a tire pressure gauge to check the tire
pressure.
The CHECK TIRE PRESSURE warning appears
each time the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position as long as the low tire pressure warning
light remains illuminated.
For additional information, see “Vehicle informa-
tion display” in the “Instruments and Controls”
section and “Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)” in the “Starting and driving” section and
“In case of emergency” section.
TPMS malfunction:
If the TPMS is not functioning properly, the low
tire pressure warning light will flash for approxi-
mately 1 minute when the power switch is placed
in the ON position. The light will remain on after
the 1 minute. Have the system checked by aNISSAN certified LEAF dealer. The CHECK TIRE
PRESSURE warning does not appear if the low
tire pressure warning light illuminates to indicate
a TPMS malfunction.
For additional information, see “Vehicle informa-
tion display” and “Tire Pressure Monitoring Sys-
tem (TPMS)” in the “Starting and driving” section.
WARNING
• Radio waves could adversely affect electric medical equipment. Those
who use a pacemaker should contact
the electric medical equipment manu-
facturer for the possible influences be-
fore use.
• If the light does not illuminate when the power switch is placed in the ON
position, have the vehicle checked by a
NISSAN certified LEAF dealer as soon
as possible.
• If the light illuminates while driving, avoid sudden steering maneuvers or
abrupt braking, reduce vehicle speed,
pull off the road to a safe location and
stop the vehicle as soon as possible.
Driving with under-inflated tires may
permanently damage the tires and in-
crease the likelihood of tire failure.
Serious vehicle damage could occur and may lead to an accident and could
result in serious personal injury. Check
the tire pressure for all four tires. Ad-
just the tire pressure to the recom-
mended COLD tire pressure shown on
the Tire and Loading Information label
to turn the low tire pressure warning
light OFF. If the light still illuminates
while driving after adjusting the tire
pressure, a tire may be flat. If you have
a flat tire, repair it as soon as possible.
• When a wheel is replaced, the TPMS will not function and the low tire pres-
sure warning light will flash for ap-
proximately 1 minute. The light will re-
main on after 1 minute. Contact your
NISSAN certified LEAF dealer as soon
as possible for tire replacement
and/or system resetting.
• Replacing tires with those not origi- nally specified by NISSAN could affect
the proper operation of the TPMS.
CAUTION
• The TPMS is not a substitute for the regular tire pressure check. Be sure to
check the tire pressure regularly.

INDICATORS FOR MAINTENANCE
1. Tire replacement indicator
This indicator appears when the customer set
distance comes for replacing tires. You can set or
reset the distance for replacing tires. (See “Trip
computer” in this section.)WARNING
The tire replacement indicator is not a
substitute for regular tire checks, includ-
ing tire pressure checks. See “Changing wheels and tires” in the “Maintenance
and do-it-yourself” section. Many factors
including tire inflation, alignment, driving
habits and road conditions affect tire
wear and when tires should be replaced.
Setting the tire replacement indicator for
a certain driving distance does not mean
your tires will last that long. Use the tire
replacement indicator as a guide only
and always perform regular tire checks.
Failure to perform regular tire checks,
including tire pressure checks could re-
sult in tire failure. Serious vehicle dam-
age could occur and may lead to a colli-
sion, which could result in serious
personal injury or death.
2. 3. 4. “Other” indicator
These indicators appears when the customer set
distance comes for checking or replacing main-
tenance items other than the tires. Other mainte-
nance items can include such things as the tire
rotation. You can set or reset the distance for
checking or replacing the items. (See “Trip com-
puter” in this section.) For scheduled mainte-
nance items and intervals, see your NISSAN Ser-
vice and Maintenance Guide.
