Safety functions
The CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device) has the following
safety features.
■ Electrical leakage detection function
If an electrical leakage is de tected during charging, the power
source will be automatically interr upted, thus preventing fires or
electrical shocks caused by electrical leakage.
If the power source is interrupted, the error warning indicator will illumi-
nate.
If the power source is interrupted: P. 106
■ Electrical leakage test function
The electrical leakage detection function can be tested prior to
charging to confirm that it is operating correctly.
When the test button is pressed while the plug is connected to an exter-
nal power source, the error warning indicator should illuminate.
(P. 107)
■ Conditions for supplying current to the vehicle
The CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device) is designed to
prevent electrical current from being supplied to the charging con-
nector when it is not connected to the vehicle, even if the plug is
inserted into the outlet.
■ Charging cable
The charging cable may become hard in low temperatures.
