While the Li-ion battery is being charged

If the EVSE control box indicator light does not illuminate after connecting the

plug to the outlet, check the GFCI and circuit breaker for the outlet. If either the

should have a qualified electrician inspect and repair the electrical circuit. If the

GFCI breaker is not tripped, stop using the EVSE. It is recommended that you visit

a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.
