WARNINGlTo prevent an electric shock or fire due to
electric current leak, perform charging
using a waterproofed outlet with earthing
which is connected to an earth leakage circuit breaker.
l To reduce the risk of electric shock or fire
due to electric leak, always use an outlet
protected by a residual current detector, rated for amperage equal to or greater than the value specified by MITSUBISHI
MOTORS , and that is connected to a
dedicated branch circuit. If the circuit is shared, and another electrical device is
being used at the same time the vehicle is charging, the breaker may trip and thecircuit may cause adverse interference on
MCB (Moulded Circuit Board) and
household electrical appliances such as TVs and audio systems.
l If a multi plug adapter is connected and
used with the EV charging cable together with other devices, the outlet may over- heat, resulting in a fire.
l Do not use a multi type outlet to prevent
an electric shock or fire. There is no guar- antee of safety because you cannot make
an earth connection in some multi type outlet and it is not a dedicated type outlet.
l Use an outlet for EV charging with water-
proofing processing installed if the instal- led position is outdoors or may get wet by
rain etc.CAUTIONl Use the outlet that is installed approx. 1 me-
ter above the ground. If the outlet position is
too low, the control box may touch the ground, which may lead to troubles such as
