WARNING
• If you use any medical electric de-
vices, such as an implantable cardiac
pacemaker or an implantable cardio-
vascular defibrillator, check with the
electric medical device manufac-
turer concerning the effects that
charging may have on implanted de-
vices before starting the charge op-
eration. Charging may affect the
operation.
• Make sure there is no water or for-
eign materials in the charge port,
charge connector, or electrical plug,
and that they are not damaged or
affected by rust or corrosion. If any of
these conditions are noticeable, do
not charge the Li-ion battery. This
may result in a short circuit or electric
shock and could cause a fire which
may result in serious personal injury
or death.
• To avoid serious personal injury or
death when the Li-ion battery is
charging, be aware of the following
precautions. –
Do not touch the metal contacts of
the charge port, charge connec-
tor, electrical plug or Genuine
NISSAN Adapter.
– Do not touch the vehicle and EVSE
when there is lightning.
– Do not pull, twist, bend, step on, or
drag the cable.
• Make sure the charge connector is
removed from the charge port before
starting your vehicle. If the charge
connector is only partially engaged
and the connector latch is unlocked,
it is possible to place the EV in the
READY to drive position.
• Do not touch the plug or the Genuine
NISSAN Adapter if they are wet or
with wet hands. Do not put the plug
or the Genuine NISSAN Adapter in
water, liquid or snow. This may cause
an electric shock which may result in
serious personal injury or death.
• Do not disassemble or modif y the
charge port, the EVSE or the Genuine
NISSAN Adapter. This may cause a
fire or an electric shock which may
result in serious personal injury or
death. •
If you notice an unusual odor, smoke
or abnormal noises coming from the
vehicle, stop charging immediately.
• Be careful not to allow your hands,
hair, jewelry or clothing to come into
contact with, or get caught in, the
traction motor cooling fan. The cool-
ing fan can start at any time during
charging.
• Do not use extension cords or adapt-
ers unless they are Genuine NISSAN
parts.
• Do not use the Genuine NISSAN
Adapter with any devices except the
Genuine NISSAN EVSE.
• Do not allow an unattended child to
handle or use this product.
• Use the EVSE with outlet and wiring
installed according to the
regulations/standards.
• Pass the lower side belt of the EVSE
case securely through the fastener
on the bottom of the luggage board.
If the case suddenly becomes loose,
it may cause serious injury or death.
PRECAUTIONS ON CHARGING
CH-2Charging

–Do not use the EVSE in structures
using fuse-based circuit protec-
tion. Use only with electrical cir-
cuits protected by circuit
breakers.
– Do not use the EVSE on electrical
circuits with two-prong outlets.
– Do not use the EVSE if other de-
vices are plugged into the same
circuit.
– When unplugging, be sure to pull
by the plug or the EVSE, not the
cord.
– Do not pull, twist, bend, step on or
drag the cable.
– Do not attach or detach the Genu-
ine NISSAN Adapter while the
Genuine NISSAN Adapter is in-
serted into an outlet.
– Do not use the Genuine NISSAN
Adapter if the plug is not fully in-
serted and not locked.
– If you use the EVSE holder, handle
it with care to avoid injuries due to
contact with its edges or other
parts. –
Do not use the EVSE if the cable or
cord is frayed, has broken insula-
tion, or shows any other indica-
tions of damage.
– Stop using the EVSE immediately
if charging stops before comple-
tion when you move the plug or
cord.
– Do not use the EVSE if the control
box, plug, the EVSE or charge con-
nector is broken, cracked, open,
corroded or shows any other indi-
cations of damage.
– Do not use the EVSE if the plug has
a loose connection with the outlet
or if the outlet is damaged or
rusted.
– Before you connect the EVSE, be
sure to check the rated current
shown on the EVSE to ensure that
the outlet and circuit have enough
current capacity to charge your
vehicle safely. If the capacity of
the outlet and circuit is not
enough, wiring may cause over-
heating or a fire.
– If in any doubt about the outlet
and circuit, consult a qualified
electrician. –
The EVSE has parts that may
spark inside. Do not use it where
gasoline, paint, or flammable liq-
uids are used or stored.
– Do not use if a malfunction occurs
or if the EVSE has been damaged
in any manner. It is recommended
that you visit a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer for replacement.
– The EVSE contains no user ser-
viceable parts. Do not attempt to
repair the EVSE, doing so will void
your warranty.
• Pass the lower side belt of the EVSE
case securely through the fastener
on the bottom of the luggage board.
If the case suddenly becomes loose,
it may cause serious injury or death.

c. Pass the lower side belt from the casethrough the fastener on the bottom of
the luggage board
OC. d. Hang the hook
ODfrom the case to
the ring from the trim.
e. Fix the belt
OEwith the hook-and-loop
fastener on the side of the case by
pulling the end of the belt.

WARNING
Pass the lower side belt of the EVSE
case securely through the fastener on
the bottom of the luggage board. If the
case suddenly becomes loose, it may
cause serious injury or death.
1. Af ter closing the cap on the charge port, close the charge port lid.
NOTE:
To stop charging mid-charge, remove
the charge connector. Charging auto-
matically stops.
HOW TO TRICKLE CHARGE
(AC 110–120 volt) BY L1 & L2 EVSE
WARNING
• If you wear a pacemaker or an im-
plantable cardiovascular defibrilla-
tor (ICD), stay at least 6 in (15 cm)
away from the EVSE.
• If you use any medical electric de-
vices, such as an implantable cardiac
pacemaker or an Implantable Car-
diovascular Defibrillator (ICD), check
with the electric medical device
manufacturer concerning the effects
that charging may have on im-
planted devices before starting the
charge operation. Charging may af-
fect the operation.
• In order to avoid an electric shock or
fire due to a short circuit, connect to a
GFI (Ground Fault Interrupter) circuit
breaker and use a waterproof electri-
cal ground socket.
• Discontinue EVSE use immediately if
plug or outlet becomes hot to the
touch or if you notice any unusual
odors.
• Never use extension cords. •
Never use plug adapters other than
the Genuine NISSAN Adapter for
EVSE.
• Always unplug the EVSE when not in
use.
• The Genuine NISSAN L1 & L2 EVSE
draws 12 amps continuously while
charging the Li-ion battery with AC
110–120 volt outlet. Do not plug in to
any electrical circuit unless it is in-
spected by a qualified electrician to
confirm that the electrical circuit can
accept a 12 amp draw. Any electrical
circuit has a much higher likelihood
of being compromised in the follow-
ing conditions listed below.
– Improper use of the EVSE may re-
sult in a fire and serious injury or
death.
– Do not use the EVSE in structures
more than 40 years old.
–
Do not use the EVSE in structures using fuse-based circuit protec-
tion. Use only with electrical circuits
protected by circuit breakers.
– Do not use the EVSE on electrical
circuits with two-prong outlets.
