jump cable NISSAN LEAF 2022 Owner´s Manual

CAUTION
LEAF cannot be used as a booster ve-
hicle because it cannot supply enough
power to start a gasoline engine. How-
ever, a gasoline engine vehicle can be
used to jump start LEAF's 12-volt
battery.
1. If the booster battery is in another ve-hicle
OB, position the two vehicles (OA)
and
OB) 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
OBbe-
fore 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 sys-
tems (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 (
O1→O2→O3→O4).

CAUTION
• Always connect positive (+) to posi-
tive (+) and negative (−) to body
ground (for example, as illustrated),
not to the 12-volt battery.
• Make sure the jumper cables do not
touch moving parts in the motor
compartment and that the cable
clamps do not contact any other
metal.
8. Start the engine of the booster vehicle
OB.
9. While the booster vehicle
OBengine is
running, place the EV system in the
READY to drive position.
CAUTION
If the system does not start right away,
push the power switch to the OFF posi-
tion and wait 10 seconds before trying
again.
10. Af ter starting your EV system, carefully disconnect the negative cable and
then the positive cable (
O4→O3→O2
→O1) and keep in the READY to drive
position over 20 minutes to charge the
12-volt battery. 11. If necessary, connect the vehicle to a
charging station or EVSE (Electric Ve-
hicle Supply Equipment) to charge the
Li-ion battery. Be sure to read the
“Charging” section and follow the proce-
dures and guidelines described. The ve-
hicle cannot be driven until the Li-ion
battery is charged.
12. Af ter jump starting your vehicle it is rec- ommended you visit a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer to have the 12V battery
tested.
NOTE:
If it is not possible to turn the system ON
by following this procedure, it is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer immediately. If the power limitation indicator light
illuminates, the traction motor output is
limited resulting in reduced vehicle speed.
Stop the vehicle in a safe location before
the Li-ion battery becomes completely dis-
charged and no power is available to drive
the vehicle. Contact Roadside assistance;
refer to a NISSAN Warranty Information
Booklet.
If possible, place the power switch in the
OFF position while waiting for assistance to
prevent discharging the 12-volt battery.
NOTE:
If the Li-ion battery becomes completely
discharged:
• The vehicle is automatically placed in
the ON position and it will not be pos-
sible to switch to the READY to drive
position.
• The vehicle is automatically switched to the N (Neutral) position and it will not
be possible to drive the vehicle.
