NOTE:
Charging may affect the operation of
electric medical device and result in
serious personal injury or death.
In order to avoid an electric shock or
fire due to a short circuit, connect to
GFI (Ground Fault Interrupter) circuit
breaker and use a waterproof electri-
cal ground socket.
The NISSAN Genuine EVSE (Electric
Vehicle Supply Equipment) charging
device provided with your vehicle
draws 12amps continuously while
charging the Li-ion battery. Do not plug
in to any electrical circuit unless it is
inspected by a licensed 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 following
conditions listed below.
– Improper use of the charger may
result in a fire and serious injury or
death.
– Do not use this charger in structures
more than 40 years old.
– Do not use this charger in structures
using fuse-based circuit protection.
Use only with electrical circuits pro-
tected by circuit breakers.
– Do not use this charger on electrical
circuits with two-prong outlets.
– Do not use charger if outlet appears
damaged or will not hold plug firmly.
– Discontinue charger use immedi-
ately if plug or outlet becomes hot
to the touch or if you notice any
unusual odors.
– Do not use charger if other devices
are plugged into the same circuit.
– Never use extension cords or plug
adapters with charger.
– Do not operate with a damaged
cord.
– Always unplug the charger when not
in use.
– When unplugging, be sure to pull by
the plug and not the cord.
– The device has parts that may spark
inside. Do not use it where gasoline,
paint, or flammable liquids are used
or stored.
• To stop charging mid-charge, remove the
charge connector. Charging automatically
stops.

•
If you use any medical electric devices,
such as an implantable cardiac pace-
maker or an implantable cardiovascu-
lar defibrillator, check with the electric
medical device manufacturer concern-
ing the effects that charging may have
on implanted devices before starting
the charge operation. Charging may
affect the operation.
If you have an implantable cardiac
pacemaker or an implantable cardio-
vascular defibrillator, while the Li-ion
battery is charging:
– Do not use if a malfunction occurs or
if charger has been damaged in any
manner. Return to a NISSAN certi-
fied LEAF dealer for replacement.
– The charger contains no user ser-
viceable parts. Do not attempt to
repair the charger, doing so will void
your warranty.
– Do not stay inside the vehicle.
– Do not go inside the vehicle, for ex-
ample to remove or place an item in
the passenger compartment.
