5. Check whether there is dust or foreign
substances inside the charging
connector and charging inlet.
6. Hold the charging connector handle
and connect it to the vehicle charging
inlet. Push the connector all the way
in. If the charging connector and
charging terminal are not connected
properly, this may cause a fire and
charging may not start.
Refer to the manual for each type of
DC charger for how to charge and
remove the charger.

7. Check if the charging indicator light
(
) of the high voltage battery in
the instrument cluster is turned ON.
Charging is not active when the
charging indicator light (
) is OFF.
When charging cable is not connected
properly to inlet, press release button,
remove charging cable and reconnect
again.
During cold weather, DC charging
may not be available to prevent high
voltage battery degradation.
Information
To control the temperature of the high
voltage battery while charging or when
the battery temperature is high, the
air conditioning is used to cool down
the battery. This may generate noise
or vibration from operation of the air
conditioning compressor and cooling fan,
but it is a normal condition when charging
the high voltage battery. Also, the air
conditioning performance may be reduced
due to operation of the cooling system to
charge the high voltage battery. This is a
normal condition.
Information
• Even though charging is possible with
the Start/Stop button in the ON/START
position, for your safety, start charging
when the Start/Stop button is in the
OFF position and the vehicle shifted to
P (Park). After charging has started,
you can use electrical components such
as the radio by pressing the Start/Stop
button to the ACC or ON position.
• During charging, the gear cannot be
shifted from P (Park) to any other gear.
