NISSAN 2013 LEAF - Service & Maintenance Guide - Manual (Page 9)

As a condition of your electric vehicle’s warranty, you are responsible for properly maintaining your
electric vehicle. In maintaining your electric vehicle, you should follow either Schedule 1 or Schedule 2 as
listed below. Use these guidelines to determine which maintenance schedule to use.
SCHEDULE 1 (more severe operating conditions)
Use Schedule 1 if you primarily operate your electric vehicle under any
of these conditions:
● Repeated short trips of less than 5 miles in normal temperatures or
less than 10 miles in freezing temperatures
● Stop-and-go traffic in hot weather or low speed driving for long dis-
tances
● Driving in dusty conditions or on rough, muddy, or salt-spread roads
● Using a car-top carrier
SCHEDULE 2 (less severe operating conditions)
Schedule 2 features 7,500-mile service intervals; with Schedule 2
fewer maintenance items are regularly checked or replaced than with
Schedule 1.
Generally, Schedule 2 applies only to highway driving in temperate
conditions. Use Schedule 2 only if you primarily operate your electric
vehicle under conditions other than those listed in Schedule 1.
