• Make sure there is no water or foreign materials in
the charge port, charge connector or electrical plug,
and that they are not damaged or affected by rust
or corrosion. If any of these conditions are
noticeable, do not charge the battery. This may
result in a short circuit or electric shock and could
cause a fire which may result in serious personal
injury or death.
• Do not touch the metal contacts of the charge port,
charge connector or electrical plug.
• Do not touch the vehicle and charger when there is
lightning. A lightning strike may back feed into the
charger causing damage and possible personal
injury or death.
• Make sure the charge connector is removed from
the charge port before starting your vehicle. If the
charge connector is only partially engaged and the
connector latch is unlocked, it is possible to start
the vehicle.
• Do not plug in or unplug the plug with wet hands
and do not stand in water, liquid or snow. This may
cause an electric shock which may result in serious
personal injury or death.
• Do not disassemble or modify the charge port or
the EVSE (Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment). This
may cause a fire.
• If you notice an unusual odor or smoke coming
from the vehicle, stop charging immediately.
• Be careful not to allow your hands, hair, jewelry or
clothing to come into contact with, or get caught in,
the traction motor cooling fan. The cooling fan can
start at any time during charging.
• Make sure the cap is closed on the charge port
when charging is finished. If the charge port cap is
open, water or foreign materials may enter the
charge port and cause short circuit.
• Do not attempt to perform a jump start on the 12-
volt battery at the same time that the Li-ion battery
is being charged. Doing so may damage the vehicle
or charging equipment.
