2-2. Charging
*
: If the AC charging cable is equipped.
Connect to an AC 220 V - 240 V
socket with a Residual Current
Circuit-Breaker (RCCB) and a
circuit breaker. Use of a 13A
individual circuit is strongly rec-
ommended to ensure AC
charging cable will operate prop-
erly.
We strongly recommend that you
use an exclusive connection
from the junction box for
charging. If you connect on a
socket that is on a shared circuit,
and other electrical appliances
are used on other sockets on the
same circuit, then the circuit
breaker might trip.

■ When connecting the charging
connector to the AC charging
inlet
Be careful not to touch the charging
port lid lock portion.
When the connector lock operates,
the charging port lid lock will also
operate. The charging port lid lock pin
may hit a hand, resulting in an injury.
■ When inserting the charging con-
nector
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause a mal-
function in the charging connector
locking system.
● Check that the charging connector
is compatible with this vehicle.
A charging connector of the differ-
ent type or a charging connector
with damaged or deformed inser-
tion part may not be locked.
● Do not apply excessive force to the
charging connector after the
charging connector is inserted.
When removing the charging con-
nector, make sure to unlock the
charging connector.
