How to disconnect AC charger
1. The vehicle doors must be unlocked
in order to be able to disconnect the
charging connector. A lock system
prevents charger cable disconnection
when the vehicle's doors are locked.
In order to disconnect the charging con
-
nector, unlock the doors to unlatch the
charging connector lock system. If not,
the charging connector and the vehicle's
charging inlet may be damaged.
2. Hold the charging connector handle
and pull it out.
To prevent charging cable theft, the
charging connector cannot be discon
-
nected from the inlet when the doors
are locked.
However, if the vehicle is in the
charging connector AUTO mode, the
charging connector automatically
unlocks from the inlet when charging
is completed.
If the connector is not automatically
unlocked after charging is completed
in AUTO mode, the connector is
unlocked when all of the doors are
unlocked.

connector lock" on page 1-6.
