WARNING
• Always follow the instructions below. Failure to do so could result in damage
to the DC/DC converter and cause per-
sonal injury.
• Do not attempt to perform a jump start on the 12-volt battery at the same time
that the Li-ion battery is being
charged. Doing so may damage the
vehicle or charging equipment and
could cause an injury.
CAUTION
LEAF cannot be used as a booster vehicle
because it cannot supply enough power
to start a gasoline engine. However, a
gasoline engine vehicle can be used to
jump start LEAF’s 12-volt battery.
1. If the booster battery is in another vehicle
B,
position the two vehicles (
AandB) to bring
their 12-volt batteries into close proximity to
each other.
Do not allow the two vehicles to touch. 2. Apply the parking brake.
If the 12-volt battery is discharged, the
power switch cannot be moved from the
OFF position. Connect the jumper cables
to the booster vehicle
Bbefore pushing
the power switch.
3. Push the P (Park) position switch to place the vehicle in the P (Park) position.
4. Switch off all unnecessary electrical systems (headlights, heater, air conditioner, etc.) .
5. Place the power switch in the OFF position.
6. Ensure vent caps are level and tight.
7. Connect jumper cables in the sequence as illustrated (
1→2→3→4).
CAUTION
• Always connect positive (+) to positive
(+) and negative (−) to body ground (for
example, as illustrated) , not to the 12-
volt battery.

partment and that the cable clamps do
not contact any other metal.
