Genuine

NISSAN

Emergency

Tire

Sealant provided with your vehicle.
Other tire sealants may damage the
valve stem seal which can cause the
tire to lose air pressure.

To start your EV system with a booster bat-
tery, the instructions and precautions be-
low must be followed.

Jump starting provides power to the 12-
volt system to allow the electrical systems
to operate. The electrical systems must be
operating to allow the Li-ion battery to be
charged. Jump starting does not charge
the Li-ion battery. The Li-ion battery must
be charged before the vehicle can be
driven.

WARNING

•

If done incorrectly, jump starting can
lead to a 12-volt battery explosion,
resulting in severe injury or death. It
could also damage your vehicle.

•

Explosive hydrogen gas is always
present in the vicinity of the 12-volt
battery. Keep all sparks and flames
away from the 12-volt battery.

•

Do not allow battery fluid to come
into contact with eyes, skin, clothing
or painted surfaces. Battery fluid is a
corrosive sulfuric acid solution that
can cause severe burns. If the fluid
comes into contact with anything,
immediately

flush

the

contacted

area with water.

•

Keep the 12-volt battery out of the
reach of children.

•

The booster battery must be rated at
12 volt. Use of an improperly rated
battery can damage your vehicle.

•

Whenever working on or near a 12-
volt battery, always wear suitable
eye protectors (for example, goggles
or industrial safety spectacles) and
remove rings, metal bands, or any
other jewelry. Do not lean over the
12-volt battery when jump starting.

•

Do not attempt to jump start a frozen
battery. It could explode and cause
serious injury.

•

Your vehicle has an automatic cool-
ing fan. It could come on at any time.
Keep hands and other objects away
from it.

•

Always follow the instructions below.
Failure to do so could result in dam-
age to the DC/DC converter and
cause personal injury.

•

Do not attempt to perform a jump
start on the 12-volt battery at the
same time that the Li-ion battery is
being charged. Doing so may dam-
age the vehicle or charging equip-
ment and could cause an injury.

JUMP STARTING

In case of emergency

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CAUTION

LEAF cannot be used as a booster ve-
hicle because it cannot supply enough
power to start a gasoline engine. How-
ever, a gasoline engine vehicle can be
used to jump start LEAF's 12-volt
battery.

1. If the booster battery is in another ve-

hicle

, position the two vehicles (

)

and

) to bring their 12-volt batteries

into close proximity to each other.

Do not allow the two vehicles to touch.

2. Apply the parking brake.

If the 12-volt battery is discharged, the
power switch cannot be moved from
the OFF position. Connect the jumper
cables to the booster vehicle

be-

fore pushing the power switch.

3. Push the P (Park) position switch to

place the vehicle in the P (Park) position.

4. Switch off all unnecessary electrical sys-

tems (headlights, heater, air conditioner,
etc.).

5. Place the power switch in the OFF

position.

6. Ensure vent caps are level and tight.

7. Connect jumper cables in the sequence

as illustrated (

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CAUTION

•

Always connect positive (+) to posi-
tive (+) and negative (−) to body
ground (for example, as illustrated),
not to the 12-volt battery.

•

Make sure the jumper cables do not
touch moving parts in the motor
compartment and that the cable
clamps do not contact any other
metal.

8. Start the engine of the booster vehicle

9. While the booster vehicle

engine is

running, place the EV system in the
READY to drive position.

CAUTION

If the system does not start right away,
push the power switch to the OFF posi-
tion and wait 10 seconds before trying
again.

10. After starting your EV system, carefully

disconnect the negative cable and
then the positive cable (

) and keep in the READY to drive

position over 20 minutes to charge the
12-volt battery.

11. If necessary, connect the vehicle to a

charging station or EVSE (Electric Ve-
hicle Supply Equipment) to charge the
Li-ion battery. Be sure to read the
“Charging” section and follow the proce-
dures and guidelines described. The ve-
hicle cannot be driven until the Li-ion
battery is charged.

12. After jump starting your vehicle it is rec-

ommended you visit a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer to have the 12V battery
tested.

NOTE:

If it is not possible to turn the system ON
by following this procedure, it is recom-
mended that you visit a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer immediately.

If the power limitation indicator light
illuminates, the traction motor output is
limited resulting in reduced vehicle speed.
Stop the vehicle in a safe location before
the Li-ion battery becomes completely dis-
charged and no power is available to drive
the vehicle. Contact Roadside assistance;
refer to a NISSAN Warranty Information
Booklet.

If possible, place the power switch in the
OFF position while waiting for assistance to
prevent discharging the 12-volt battery.

NOTE:

If the Li-ion battery becomes completely
discharged:
• The vehicle is automatically placed in

the ON position and it will not be pos-
sible to switch to the READY to drive
position.

• The vehicle is automatically switched

to the N (Neutral) position and it will not
be possible to drive the vehicle.

IF THE LI-ION BATTERY BECOMES
COMPLETELY DISCHARGED

In case of emergency

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

WARNING

If the vehicle is in the N (Neutral) posi-
tion and the Li-ion battery and the 12-
volt battery become completely dis-
charged, the vehicle cannot be placed
in the P (Park) position. If this occurs,
place suitable blocks at both the front
and back of a wheel to prevent the ve-
hicle from moving. Failure to block a
wheel may allow the vehicle to move
unexpectedly which may result in seri-
ous personal injury or death.

To place the vehicle in the READY to drive
position so the vehicle can be driven,
charge the Li-ion battery until the driving
range on the instrument panel changes
from “---” to a numeric distance.

NOTE:
• Some vibration may occur when the

vehicle is stopped in case the Li-ion
battery

becomes

completely

dis-

charged. This is not the malfunction of
the system.

• If the Li-ion battery is completely dis-

charged, it is required to charge until
the low battery charge warning light
turns off (white) from on (yellow).

Do not attempt to start the system by
pushing the vehicle.

CAUTION

An EV cannot be push-started or tow-
started. Attempting to do so may cause
traction motor damage.

When towing your vehicle, all State (Provin-
cial in Canada) and local regulations for
towing must be followed.

Incorrect towing equipment could dam-
age your vehicle. Towing instructions are
available from a NISSAN certified LEAF
dealer. Local service operators are familiar
with the applicable laws and procedures
for towing. To assure proper towing and to
prevent accidental damage to your vehicle,
NISSAN recommends that you have a ser-
vice operator tow your vehicle. It is advis-
able to have the service operator carefully
read the following precautions.

WARNING

•

Never ride in a vehicle that is being
towed.

•

Never get under your vehicle after it
has been lifted by a tow truck.

CAUTION

•

When towing, make sure that the ax-
les, steering system and power train
are in working condition. Use dollies
or flatbed if any of the listed systems
are not working.

“Parking brake” (P. 5-18).

VEHICLE RECOVERY (freeing a
stuck vehicle)

WARNING

To avoid vehicle damage, serious per-
sonal injury or death when recovering a
stuck vehicle:

•

Contact a professional towing ser-
vice to recover the vehicle if you have
any questions regarding the recov-
ery procedure.

•

Tow chains or cables must be at-
tached only to main structural mem-
bers of the vehicle.

•

Do not use the vehicle tie-downs to
tow or free a stuck vehicle.

•

Only use devices specifically de-
signed for vehicle recovery and fol-
low the manufacturer’s instructions.

•

Always

pull

the

recovery

device

straight out from the front of the ve-
hicle. Never pull at an angle.

•

Route recovery devices so they do
not touch any part of the vehicle ex-
cept the attachment point.

If your vehicle is stuck in sand, snow, mud,
etc., use a tow strap or other device de-
signed specifically for vehicle recovery. Al-

ways follow the manufacturer’s instruc-
tions for the recovery device.

Rocking a stuck vehicle

If the vehicle is stuck in sand, snow, mud,
etc., try to free it by following the procedure
below.

1. Turn off the Vehicle Dynamic Control

(VDC) system.

2. Make sure the area in front and behind

the vehicle is clear of obstructions.

3. Turn the steering wheel left and right to

clear an area around the front tires.

4. Slowly rock the vehicle forward and

backward.

• Shift back and forth between the R

(Reverse) and D (Drive) positions.

• Apply the accelerator as little as pos-

sible to maintain the rocking motion.

• Release the accelerator pedal before

shifting between R (Reverse) and D
(Drive).

• Do not spin the tires above 35 mph (55

km/h).

5. If the vehicle cannot be freed after a few

tries, contact a professional towing ser-
vice to remove the vehicle.

In case of emergency

6-15

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

In order to maintain the appearance of
your vehicle, it is important to take proper
care of it.

To protect the paint surfaces, wash your
vehicle as soon as you can:
• After a rainfall to prevent possible dam-

age from acid rain.

• After driving on coastal roads.
• When contaminants such as soot, bird

droppings, tree sap, metal particles or
bugs get on the paint surface.

• When dust or mud builds up on the

surface.

Whenever possible, store or park your ve-
hicle inside a garage or in a covered area.

When it is necessary to park outside, park in
a shady area or protect the vehicle with a
body cover.

Be careful not to scratch the paint sur-
face when putting on or removing the
body cover.

WASHING

Wash dirt off the vehicle with a wet sponge
and plenty of water. Clean the vehicle thor-
oughly using a mild soap, a special vehicle
soap or general purpose dishwashing liq-
uid mixed with clean, lukewarm (never hot)
water.

CAUTION

•

Do not concentrate water spray di-
rectly on the sonar sensors (if so
equipped) on the bumper as this will
result in damage to the sensors. Do
not use pressure washers capable of
spraying water over 1,200 psi (8,274
kPa) to wash your vehicle. Use of
high-pressure washers over 1,200 psi
(8,274 kPa) can result in damage to or
removal of paint or graphics. Avoid
using a high-pressure washer closer
than 12 inches (30 cm) to the vehicle.
Always use a wide-angle nozzle only,
keep the nozzle moving and do not
concentrate the water spray on any
one area.

•

Do not use car washes that use acid
in the detergent. Some car washes,
especially brushless ones, use some
acid for cleaning. The acid may react
with some plastic vehicle compo-
nents, causing them to crack. This
could affect their appearance, and
also could cause them not to func-
tion properly. Always check with your
car wash to confirm that acid is not
used.

•

Do not wash the vehicle with strong
household soap, strong chemical de-
tergents, gasoline or solvents.

•

Do not wash the vehicle in direct sun-
light or while the vehicle body is hot,
as

the

surface

may

become

water-spotted.

•

Avoid using tight-napped or rough
cloths, such as washing mitts. Care
must

taken

when

removing

caked-on dirt or other foreign sub-
stances so the paint surface is not
scratched or damaged.

CLEANING EXTERIOR

7-2

Appearance and care

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Rinse the vehicle thoroughly with plenty of
clean water.

Inside flanges, seams and folds on the
doors, hatches and hood are particularly
vulnerable to the effects of road salt. There-
fore,

these

areas

must

regularly

cleaned. Make sure that the drain holes in
the lower edge of the door are open. Spray
water under the body and in the wheel
wells to loosen the dirt and wash away
road salt.

Avoid leaving water spots on the paint sur-
face by using a damp chamois to dry the
vehicle.

WAXING

Regular waxing protects the paint surface
and helps retain new vehicle appearance.
Polishing is recommended to remove
built-up wax residue and to avoid a weath-
ered appearance before reapplying wax.

A NISSAN certified LEAF dealer can assist
you in choosing the proper product.
• Wax your vehicle only after a thorough

washing. Follow the instructions supplied
with the wax.

• Do not use a wax containing any abra-

sives, cutting compounds or cleaners
that may damage the vehicle finish.

Machine compound or aggressive polish-
ing on a base coat/clear coat paint finish
may dull the finish or leave swirl marks.

REMOVING SPOTS

Remove tar and oil spots, industrial dust,
insects, and tree sap as quickly as possible
from the paint surface to avoid lasting
damage or staining. Special cleaning prod-
ucts are available at a NISSAN certified
LEAF dealer or any automotive accessory
stores.

UNDERBODY

In areas where road salt is used in winter,
the underbody must be cleaned regularly.
This will prevent dirt and salt from building
up and causing the acceleration of corro-
sion on the underbody and suspension.
Before the winter period and again in the
spring, the underseal must be checked
and, if necessary, re-treated.

GLASS

Use glass cleaner to remove smoke and
dust film from the glass surfaces. It is nor-
mal for glass to become coated with a film
after the vehicle is parked in the hot sun.
Glass cleaner and a soft cloth will easily
remove this film.

CAUTION

When cleaning the inside of the win-
dows, do not use sharp-edged tools,
abrasive cleaners or chlorine-based
disinfectant cleaners. They could dam-
age the electrical conductors, radio an-
tenna elements or rear window de-
froster elements.

WHEELS

Wash the wheels when washing the vehicle
to maintain their appearance.
• Clean the inner side of the wheels when

the wheel is changed or the underside of
the vehicle is washed.

• Inspect wheel rims regularly for dents or

corrosion. Such damage may cause loss
of pressure or poor seal at the tire bead.

• NISSAN

recommends

that

the

road

wheels be waxed to protect against road
salt in areas where it is used during
winter.

CAUTION

Do not use abrasive cleaners when
washing the wheels.

Appearance and care

7-3

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

ALUMINUM ALLOY WHEELS (if so
equipped)

Wash regularly with a sponge dampened in
a mild soap solution, especially during win-
ter months in areas where road salt is used.
Salt could discolor the wheels if not
removed.

CAUTION

Follow the directions below to avoid
staining or discoloring the wheels:

•

Do not use a cleaner that uses strong
acid or alkali contents to clean the
wheels.

•

Do not apply wheel cleaners to the
wheels when they are hot. The wheel
temperature should be the same as
ambient temperature.

•

Rinse the wheel to completely re-
move the cleaner within 15 minutes
after the cleaner is applied.

CHROME PARTS

Clean chrome parts regularly with a non-
abrasive chrome polish to maintain the
finish.

TIRE DRESSING

NISSAN does not recommend the use of
tire dressings. Tire manufacturers apply a
coating to the tires to help reduce discolor-
ation of the rubber. If a tire dressing is ap-
plied to the tires, it may react with the coat-
ing and form a compound. This compound
may come off the tire while driving and
stain the vehicle paint.

If you choose to use a tire dressing, take the
following precautions:
• Use a water-based tire dressing. The

coating on the tire dissolves more easily
with an oil-based tire dressing.

• Apply a light coat of tire dressing to help

prevent it from entering the tire tread/
grooves (where it would be difficult to
remove).

• Wipe off excess tire dressing using a dry

towel. Make sure the tire dressing is com-
pletely

removed

from

the

tire

tread/grooves.

• Allow the tire dressing to dry as recom-

mended

the

tire

dressing

manufacturer.

Occasionally remove loose dust from the
interior trim, plastic parts and seats using a
vacuum cleaner or soft bristled brush. Wipe
the vinyl and leather surfaces (if so
equipped) with a clean, soft cloth damp-
ened in mild soap solution, then wipe clean
with a dry soft cloth.

Regular care and cleaning is required in
order to maintain the appearance of the
leather (if so equipped).

Before using any fabric protector, read the
manufacturer’s recommendations. Some
fabric protectors contain chemicals that
may stain or bleach the seat material.

Use a cloth dampened only with water to
clean the meter and gauge lens.

WARNING

Do not use water or acidic cleaners (hot
steam cleaners) on the seat. This can
damage the seat or occupant classifi-
cation sensor (weight sensor). This can
also affect the operation of the air bag
system and result in serious personal
injury.

CLEANING INTERIOR

7-4

Appearance and care

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CAUTION

•

Never use benzine, thinner, or any
similar material.

•

Small dirt particles can be abrasive
and damaging to the leather sur-
faces (if so equipped) and should be
removed promptly. Do not use saddle
soap, car waxes, polishes, oils, clean-
ing fluids, solvents, detergents or
ammonia-based cleaners as they
may damage the leather’s natural
finish.

•

Never use fabric protectors unless
recommended by the manufacturer.

•

Do not use glass or plastic cleaner on
meter or gauge lens covers. It may
damage the lens cover.

•

Never use chloride solutions for
cleaning aluminum decoratives (if so
equipped), damage may occur.

AIR FRESHENERS

Most air fresheners use a solvent that
could affect the vehicle interior. If you use
an

air

freshener,

take

the

following

precautions:
• Hanging-type air fresheners can cause

permanent discoloration when they con-
tact vehicle interior surfaces. Place the air
freshener in a location that allows it to
hang free and not contact an interior
surface.

• Liquid-type air fresheners typically clip on

the vents. These products can cause im-
mediate

damage

and

discoloration

when spilled on interior surfaces.

Carefully read and follow the manufactur-
er’s

instructions

before

using

air

fresheners.

FLOOR MATS (if so equipped)

WARNING

To avoid potential pedal interference
that may result in a collision, injury or
death:

•

NEVER place a floor mat on top of
another floor mat in the driver front
position or install them upside down
or backwards.

•

Use only Genuine NISSAN floor mats,
or equivalent floor mats, that are
specifically designed for use in your
vehicle model and model year.

LPD2378

Appearance and care

7-5

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

•

Properly position the mats in the
floorwell using the floor mat posi-
tioning hook. For additional informa-
tion, see "Floor mat installation"
(P. 7-6).

•

Make sure the floor mat does not in-
terfere with pedal operation.

•

Periodically check the floor mats to
make

sure

they

are

properly

installed.

•

After cleaning the vehicle interior,
check the floor mats to make sure
they are properly installed.

The use of Genuine NISSAN floor mats can
extend the life of your vehicle carpet and
make it easier to clean the interior. Mats
should be maintained with regular clean-
ing and replaced if they become exces-
sively worn.

Floor mat installation

Your vehicle is equipped with floor mat po-
sitioning hook(s). The number and shape of
the floor mat positioning hooks for each
seating position varies depending on the
vehicle.

When installing Genuine NISSAN floor mats,
follow the installation instructions provided
with the mat and the following:

1. Position the floor mat in the floorwell so

that the floor mat grommet holes are
aligned with the hook(s).

2. Secure the grommet holes into the

hook(s) and ensure that the floor mat is
properly positioned.

3. Make sure the floor mat does not inter-

fere with pedal operation. With the
power switch in the OFF position, the
selector lever in the P (Park) position fully
apply and release all pedals. The floor
mat must not interfere with pedal op-
eration or prevent the pedal from re-
turning to its normal position.

It is recommended that you visit a NISSAN
certified LEAF dealer for details about in-
stalling the floor mats in your vehicle.

The illustration shows the location of floor
mat positioning hooks.

SEAT BELTS

The seat belts can be cleaned by wiping
them with a sponge dampened in a mild
soap solution. Allow the belts to dry com-
pletely in the shade before using them.

For additional information, see “Seat belts”
(P. 1-11).

Appearance and care

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

WARNING

Do not allow wet seat belts to roll up in
the retractor. NEVER use bleach, dye, or
chemical solvents to clean the seat
belts, since these materials may se-
verely weaken the seat belt webbing.

MOST COMMON FACTORS
CONTRIBUTING TO VEHICLE
CORROSION

• The accumulation of moisture-retaining

dirt and debris in body panel sections,
cavities, and other areas.

• Damage to paint and other protective

coatings caused by gravel and stone
chips or minor traffic accidents.

ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS
INFLUENCE THE RATE OF
CORROSION

Moisture

Accumulation of sand, dirt and water on
the vehicle body underside can accelerate
corrosion. Wet floor coverings will not dry
completely inside the vehicle, and should
be removed for drying to avoid floor panel
corrosion.

Relative humidity

Corrosion will be accelerated in areas of
high relative humidity, especially those ar-
eas where the temperatures stay above
freezing, where atmospheric pollution ex-
ists, or where road salt is used.

Temperature

A temperature increase will accelerate the
rate of corrosion to those parts which are
not well ventilated.

Air pollution

Industrial pollution, the presence of salt in
the air in coastal areas, or heavy road salt
use will accelerate the corrosion process.
Road salt will also accelerate the disinte-
gration of paint surfaces.

PROTECT YOUR VEHICLE FROM
CORROSION

• Wash and wax your vehicle often to keep

the vehicle clean.

• Always check for minor damage to the

paint and repair it as soon as possible.

• Keep drain holes at the bottom of the

doors open to avoid water accumulation.

• Check the underbody for accumulation

of sand, dirt or salt. If present, wash with
water as soon as possible.

CORROSION PROTECTION

Appearance and care

7-7

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

CAUTION

•

NEVER remove dirt, sand or other de-
bris from the passenger compart-
ment by washing it out with a hose.
Remove dirt with a vacuum cleaner.

•

Never allow water or other liquids to
come in contact with electronic com-
ponents inside the vehicle as this
may damage them.

Chemicals used for road surface deicing
are extremely corrosive. They accelerate
corrosion and deterioration of underbody
components such as the brake lines, brake
cables, floor pan and fenders.

the

underbody

must

cleaned periodically.

For additional protection against rust and
corrosion, which may be required in some
areas, it is recommended that you consult
a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer.
