NOTE:
Perform the following procedure to

a. Wind the charge cable into a size that

will allow it to be stored in the case

Supply Equipment) control box into
the back of the case.

ment) control box.

securely through the fastener on the bot-
tom of the luggage board. If the case
suddenly becomes loose, it may cause
serious injury or death.

the charge port lid.

NOTE:
To stop charging mid-charge, remove the
charge connector. Charging automatically

HOW TO QUICK CHARGE (IF SO
EQUIPPED)

Quick charge uses public charging stations (up
to 50 kW of power) to charge the battery in a
short period of time.

WARNING

• Always use a quick charger that is

compatible with the LEAF. Using an
incompatible quick charger may cause
a fire or malfunction resulting in seri-
ous personal injury or death.

• Before starting the quick charge, care-

fully read the instructions provided on
the quick charger and make sure the
quick charge connector is properly
connected and locked. Failure to con-
nector or operate the quick charger
correctly could cause damage to the
vehicle or the charging equipment.

NOTE:
Quick charging is possible (even several
times a day) if the battery temperature is
not near the red zone. If the battery tem-
perature reaches the red zone, in order to
protect the battery, quick charging is not
allowed and the power limitation mode will
be triggered.
