Nissan ARIYA 2024 Owners Manual
3.2.3.2. Li-ion battery warmer
When the Li-ion battery temperature becomes lower, it can cause longer charging time by the quick charger.
The Li-ion battery temperature tends to fall, for example, when parking the vehicle for a long period of time while the outside temperature is below 0 °C (32 °F). The Li-ion battery temperature is lowered to the outside temperature.
The Li-ion battery warmer will automatically turn on when the Li-ion battery temperature is cold during quick charging. It will also turn on while driving, if the function is enabled on the touch screen display. It will raise the Li-ion battery temperature to avoid extending charging time when using the quick charger.
When the Li-ion battery warmer operates while quick charging, it uses electrical power from the quick charger. However, the Li-ion battery warmer can increase an amount of charge in 30 minutes by approximately 1.3 times to twofold*, in the case that the Li-ion battery temperature is below 0 °C (32 °F).
*: It varies depending on the temperature and/or remaining capacity of the Li-ion battery at the start of charging.
When the quick charge is performed immediately after the Li-ion battery warmer operated while driving, an amount of charge in 30 minutes is increased by 1.2 to 1.7 times*, in comparison with the case that the Li-ion battery warmer only operates during quick charging.
*: It varies depending on the temperature and/or remaining capacity of the Li-ion battery at the start of charging.
To allow the Li-ion battery warmer to operate while driving, enable the function on the touch screen display in the following steps:
Place the power switch in the READY to drive position. (The setting cannot be performed while driving.)
Touch the “
” key on the Launch bar.
Touch the “
” key and then touch [EV] key.
Touch the [Battery Heater] key and touch the [ON] key to enable the function.

When the Li-ion battery warmer operates while driving, more electric power will be consumed than in normal driving condition, which could result in a decreased energy economy and driving range. Take account of remaining Li-ion battery charge and estimated driving range while driving.
If the outside temperature is low and a low temperature alert [
] is displayed in the vehicle information display, it is recommended to turn ON [Battery Heater] 30 minutes to 1 hour before arriving at a quick charging station.
The [Battery Heater] setting will be turned OFF when the quick charging is completed or the power switch is placed in the OFF position.
