Nissan ARIYA 2023 Owners Manual

4.3.2. Normal charge

image

Normal charge can be performed either at home or at a public charging facility. There are two methods for performing normal charge. You can either connect the vehicle and the power supply to the EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment) (where fitted), or connect the vehicle to a normal charger. NISSAN recommends using normal charge for usual charging of the vehicle. Use of quick charge should be minimised in order to prolong Li-ion battery life.

  • 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 electrical ground socket.

  • Do not use an extension cable or electrical plug adapter. If the electrical socket generates an abnormal amount of heat, this may cause a fire.

Only charge using a 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.

  • Your NISSAN certified electric vehicle dealer can advise regarding availability of charge cables in your country.

  • NISSAN highly recommends EVSE installed on a dedicated circuit in your home by a licensed professional electrician, certified by a NISSAN recommended Electro-Mobility Operator (EMO).

  • Normal charging is performed using a dedicated electrical outlet using the EVSE provided with the vehicle.

  • The genuine NISSAN EVSE charging equipment 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 and charging timer can be performed in the normal charge mode. See
