Charging
Step 1 Plug the charge cable into the outlet of the external power source.
NOTE: Hanging the CCID on a hook is recommended to reduce the strain on the
outlet and charge cable plug.
- Make sure to hold the body of the plug and insert it firmly into the outlet.
- Check that the power indicator of the CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device) is
illuminated.
- The surface of the CCID may become hot, but this does not indicate a malfunction.
Step 2 Press the test button on the CCID to check that the electrical leakage detection function operates properly.
- If the error warning indicator illuminates when test button is pressed, the function is operating
correctly.
- After the test is completed, press reset button to turn off the error warning. Charging cannot occur
while error warning is illuminated.
- If the error warning indicator does not come on when test button is pressed, the function
may not be operating correctly. Stop charging
immediately and contact your Toyota dealer.
The Prius Plug-in may be charged immediately, or scheduled to charge at a
specific time. Before charging, it is recommended that:
-Parking brake is securely set
-All lights are turned off

tire pressures to factory-specified levels.* The light will turn off after a few
minutes. The warning light is designed to turn on when tire pressure is critically
low, but it may also come on due to temperature changes or changes in tire
pressure from natural air leakage.
If the tire pressure indicator flashes for more than 60 seconds and then remains
on, take the vehicle to your local Toyota dealer.
