CHARGING METHODS

CHARGING TIMER

Use charging timer to schedule when the Li-ion

battery charges. The vehicle automatically begins

charging at the scheduled times when the charge

connector is connected to the vehicle. The timers

do not need to be reset each time the Li-ion

battery needs charging.

With navigation system

The charging timer can save two timer settings

that include the charging start time and end time.

The charging timer can be applied to one of the

timer settings for each day of the week.

battery.

stop time settings are not deleted, even if

the charging timer function is turned off.

• If 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. See LEAF Navigation Sys-

tem Owner’s Manual.

• 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. 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 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.

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.

• 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.

• 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 is

more than can be provided to the Li-ion

battery for charging.

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

charging.

• 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

• Depending on the Li-ion battery condition

and the power source status, charging

may end earlier than the charging end

mated time required for charging to a full

level.

charged if the charging timer is operated

repeatedly between the Li-ion battery
