•When only the charging timer end time is
set, the system automatically stops charg-
ing when the Li-ion battery charges to a
full charge. Charging may stop before the
scheduled end time.
• If the charging timer and the Climate Ctrl.
Timer are operating at the same time due
to an overlap of the timer settings, you can
prioritize which function receives electri-
cal power first. For additional information,
refer to the LEAF Navigation System Own-
er’s Manual.
• When charging is set as the first priority,
the Climate Ctrl. Timer does not start until
10 segments (80%) of the Li-ion battery
available charge gauge are illuminated.
• Even when the climate control is set as the
first priority, the climate control system
will be turned off when the electric de-
mands of the climate control system are
more than can be provided to the Li-ion
battery for charging.
• Some charging stations used to perform
normal charge are equipped with timer
functions. If the charger timer function
and the vehicle timer are both set, and the
two timers are not set to operate at the same time, it is possible that the charger
will not start or the battery will not be
charged to the level expected.
• If the Li-ion battery warmer (if so
equipped) is operating while the Climate
Ctrl. Timer or remote climate control is
being used, performance of the climate
control system will be reduced.
• The Li-ion battery may not charge to the
expected level using the Charging Timer
when a [Start time] and [End time] are set
while the Li-ion battery warmer (if so
equipped) operates.
• Set only the Charging Timer End time
when charging in cold weather. The ve-
hicle automatically determines when to
start charging to fully charge the Li-ion
battery, even if the Li-ion battery warmer
(if so equipped) operates. Charging ends
before the set End time if the Li-ion bat-
tery is fully charged.
• The 12–volt battery can become dis-
charged if the charging timer is operated
repeatedly between the Li-ion battery
charges when the vehicle is not used for
an extended period of time. •
Charging timer is performed according to
the current time setting on the bottom left
of the display. When setting the charging
timer function, be sure to check that the
current time displayed is correct.
• To turn off the charging timer function,
touch ON on the timer charge setting
screen until the indicator lights are turned
off. Touch SAVE to apply the change. If the
settings shown on the screen are correct,
touch OK. After this operation has been
performed, the indicator disappears and
the charging timer function is turned off.
The start and end time settings are not
deleted, even if the charging timer func-
tion is turned off.
• If the day of the week is not selected on
the timer charge setting screen, the charg-
ing timer will not operate on that day. The
system will wait until the next set charging
time to perform charging.
CH-22Charging

•When the Charging Timer and the Climate
Ctrl. Timer are set at the same time, the

SymptomPossible cause Possible solution
Charging cannot be per-
formed. The vehicle power switch is in the ON position. Before charging, place the vehicle power switch in the OFF position.
Both the normal charge connector and the quick
charge connector (if so equipped) are connected
at the same time.
The normal charge connector and the quick charge connector cannot be connected at the same time.
The Li-ion battery is already fully charged. Charging cannot be performed if the Li-ion battery is already fully charged. Charging automatically turns
off if the Li-ion battery is fully charged.
The temperature of the Li-ion battery is too hot or
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 possible. Allow
the Li-ion battery to cool or warm up before charging. For additional information, refer to “Li-ion battery
temperature gauge” in the “Instruments and controls” section of this manual.
The 12-volt battery is discharged. The Li-ion battery can be charged if the vehicle electrical systems cannot be turned on. If the 12-volt
battery is discharged, charge or jump start the 12-volt battery. For additional information, refer to “Jump
starting” in the “In case of emergency” section of this manual.
The vehicle has a malfunction. The vehicle or charger may have a malfunction. Confirm if the warning light on the meter is illumi-
nated. Confirm if the indicator on the charger is indicating a malfunction. If a warning is displayed,
stop charging. It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.
Normal charge cannot be performed. There is no electrical power coming from the
outlet.
Confirm that there has not been a power failure. Make sure the breaker is on. If an outlet with a timer
device installed is used, power will only be available at the time set by the timer.
The charge connector is not connected cor-
rectly. Confirm the charge connector is connected correctly.
Immediate charge cannot be
performed. Charging timer has been set. Turn off the charging timer. For additional information, refer to “Charging timer” in this section.
Charging does not start because the charge
amount has been set to 80% and the Li-ion bat-
tery is already charged to more than 80%.
Confirm the charge percentage and if you need to charge the Li-ion battery more, change to the
desired charge setting.
