- Do not use if a malfunction occurs or if charger has been damaged in any manner. Return to a NISSAN certified LEAF dealer for replacement. - The charger contains no user serviceable parts. Do not attempt to repair the charger, doing so will void your warranty. • CAUTION • Only charge using a standard 110 - 120 volt, 15A dedicated electrical outlet (For example do not use an electric generator). Failure to do so may cause charging to fail and could cause damage to the Li-ion battery charging equipment due to power surges. • NISSAN recommends using genuine NISSAN charging equipment to charge the vehicle. Using non-NISSAN equipment could cause the Li-ion battery to not charge correctly and may damage the Li-ion battery. • Trickle charging is performed using an AC 110 - 120 volt, 15A dedicated electrical outlet using the EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment) provided with the vehicle. • The genuine NISSAN EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment) charging equipment or trickle charge cable performs a communication function with the vehicle before Li-ion charging starts. If this communication does not occur because other equipment is used, the Li-ion battery will not charge. • Immediate charge, charging timer and remote charge (models with navigation system) can be performed in the trickle charge mode. See ЉCharging timerЉ and ЉCharging related remote functionЉ. Pass the lower side belt of the EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment) case securely through the fastener on the bottom of the luggage board. If the case suddenly becomes loose, it may cause serious injury or death. CH-12 Charging
