Charging
mode
Outline
Mode 1
A charging method which does not use charging control to detect electri-
cal leakages between an external power source and the vehicle. Does not
apply to this vehicle.
Mode 2
A charging method which connects the vehicle to an external power source
through a AC charging cable equipped with a CCID (Charging Circuit
Interrupting Device).
Applies to charging through most household sockets.
Mode 3
A charging method which charges from a charger (such as at a public
charging station) equipped with charging control to detect electrical lea-
kages. Control to detect electrical leakages is implemented on the charger
side. Therefore, a CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device) is not
equipped to the AC charging cable.
Not all chargers are equipped with AC charging cables. If there is no AC
charging cable available, use the Mode 3 AC charging cable equipped to
this vehicle.
■ Identification label
Identification labels are attached to the vehicle, AC charging cable and charger to inform
the user of which device they should use.
