must
always wear appropriate PPE to avoid electrical shock. Shut down the high
voltage system by following the steps outlined in 3-4 High Voltage System Shut-Down
Procedures
(DG–16) . Wait at least ten (10) minutes for complete discharge of the high
voltage
capacitor after the high voltage system has been shut down. • NEVER assume the LEAF is shut OFF simply because it is quiet.
• If it becomes necessary for the dismantler to leave the vehicle, place a “DANGER” sign
(for
example, refer to 4-3 Storing the Vehicle (DG–36)) on the vehicle to alert other
people
that the vehicle contains a high voltage battery.
• If the READY indicator or charging indicator are ON, the high voltage system is
active.
• If possible, be sure to verify that the READY indicator on the instrument cluster
is
OFF and the high voltage system is stopped.

When performing work at locations where high voltage is applied (such as terminals) , use insulated tools
meeting 1,000V/300A specifications.
3-4 High Voltage System Shut-Down Procedures
Once the high voltage battery is properly discharged, any of the following procedures can shut down and
isolate the high voltage system. The dismantling operation can only begin after shutting down the high
voltage system. If the vehicle is heavily damaged, for example the high voltage battery is deformed, broken
or cracked, appropriate Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) must always be used and the high voltage
battery and high voltage components must not be touched. • Failure to properly shut down the high voltage system before the dismantling
procedures
are performed will result in serious injury or death from electrical shock.
To prevent serious injury or death, NEVER touch high voltage harnesses or
components without always wearing appropriate Personal Protective Equipment
(PPE) . PPE must always be worn when touching or working on high voltage
components

4. Jump Starting
T
o start the EV system with a booster battery, the instructions and precautions below must be followed. If done incorrectly, jump starting can lead to a 12-volt battery explosion, resulting in severe
personal
injury or death. It could also damage your vehicle.
Discharged 12-volt battery may cause the following issues: • The instrument cluster cannot be displayed while the power switch is turned ON. The start-upsound is not audible. (The electric car system cannot start.)
• The high voltage battery cannot be charged.
• The vehicle cannot be shifted out of PARK normally. • To avoid electrical shock, the high voltage battery CANNOT be jump started.
•
Explosive hydrogen gas is always present in the vicinity of the 12-volt battery. Keep all
sparks and flames away from the 12-volt battery. Make sure the vent tube is correctly
installed.
• Do not allow battery fluid to come into contact with eyes, skin, clothing or painted surfaces. Battery fluid is a corrosive sulfuric acid solution that can cause severe burns.
If the fluid comes into contact with anything, immediately flush the contacted area
with water.
• The booster battery must be rated at 12 volts. Use of an improperly rated battery can damage the vehicle.
• Whenever working on or near a 12-volt battery, always wear suitable eye protectors (for example, goggles or industrial safety spectacles) and remove rings, metal bands,
or any other jewelry. Do not lean over the 12-volt battery when jump starting.
• Do not attempt to jump start a frozen battery. It could explode and cause serious injury.
• LEAF is equipped with an automatic cooling fan. It could come on at any time. Keep hands and other objects away from it.
• Always follow the jump starting instructions below. Failure to do so could result in damage to the charging system and cause personal injury. • Do not use LEAF to jump start another vehicle.
•
Do not attempt to perform a jump start on the 12-volt battery at the same time that the
high voltage battery is being charged. Doing so may damage the vehicle or charging
equipment and could cause an injury.
