Never disassemble, remove or replace high-voltage parts and cables as well as their connectors because they can cause severe burns or electric shock that may result in serious injury or death. High-voltage cables are coloured orange.

The vehicle high voltage system has no user serviceable parts. Take your vehicle to a knowledgeable LEAF repairer such as a NISSAN certified electric vehicle dealer for any necessary maintenance.
