7. The [Timer 1] indicator illuminates after the

charging timer is set. Use the same procedure
to set the Timer 2 setting.

8. Place the power switch in the OFF position,

and then connect the charge connector to the
vehicle.

NOTE:

Always place the power switch in the OFF

position after setting the charging timers.
When the power switch is in the ON posi-
tion, the Li-ion battery will not start charg-
ing.

The Li-ion battery may not be charged to

the expected level if the charging timer

start time and end time are set so there is
not enough time to charge the Li-ion bat-
tery.

When either the charge start time or

charge end time is set, the charging timer
function is activated.

When only the charging timer end time is

set, the system automatically determines
when to begin charging based on the Li-
ion battery charge level. The Li-ion battery
may not be charged to the expected level
in the following conditions:

– The Li-ion battery is charged in cold

weather.

– The charge connector is connected to

the vehicle too close to the scheduled
charging end time.

When only the charging timer end time is

set, the system automatically stops charg-
ing when the Li-ion battery charges to the
selected level. Charging may stop before
the scheduled end time.

Touch [Timer 1] or [Timer 2] to turn off the

charging timer function. Touch [Yes] if the
settings shown on the screen are correct.
After this operation has been performed,
the indicator disappears and the charging

timer function is turned off. The start and
stop time settings are not deleted, even if
the charging timer function is turned off.

to an overlap of the timer settings, you can

cal power first. See LEAF Navigation Sys-
tem Owner’s Manual.

When charging is set as the first priority,

the Climate Ctrl. Timer does not start until
10 segments of the Li-ion battery avail-
able charge gauge are illuminated.

When the climate control is set as the first

priority, the climate control system will be
turned on as scheduled by the Climate
Ctrl. Timer regardless of the remaining
battery energy.

Even when the climate control is set as

the first priority, the climate control sys-
tem will be turned off when the electric
demands of the climate control system is
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
