1-12OGGE18E1Overview1

lIt is the battery to operate the motor and
the air conditioning.
In addition to the drive battery, OUT-
LANDER PHEV has the auxiliary bat-
tery to operate lamps, wipers, etc.
l Compact, light-weight lithium ion bat-
tery with high energy density is used for the drive battery.
l The drive battery has the following char-
acteristics.
Please read this carefully paying atten-
tion to the following:
Characteristics
l The same as ordinary lithium-ion batter-
ies, the battery capacity of the drive bat-
tery gradually reduces with time. As the
drive battery capacity decreases, the ini- tial EV cruising range and the vehicle
performance will similarly decrease.
Depending on the usage conditions, such as frequent quick acceleration/decelera- tion, extremely hot weather, storing the
vehicle in high ambient temperatures, etc., the rate of battery capacity drop will
increase.
l The performance may be changed due to
the ambient temperature.
At low ambient temperature, in particu- lar, the EV cruising range is short and
the charging time is long, compared to operation at normal temperature. Also,charging may be stopped before com-
plete charging.
l When the ambient temperature lowers,
the engine will start frequently, even if there remains much power in the drive
battery.
l Because the engine starts frequently, the
fuel consumption will increase.
l The battery is gradually discharged with-
out use and the battery charge is low-
ered.
l It is not necessary to consume the bat-
tery completely before charging.Precautions for operation
l If your vehicle is not used for a long
time, check the drive battery level dis-
play every 3 months.
If the drive battery level display shows
0, charge the battery until some indica- tion appears. Alternatively, start the
Plug-in Hybrid EV System and turn on the ready indicator.
The engine will then automatically start to charge the drive battery.
Wait until the engine automatically
stops, then put the operation mode of the
power switch in OFF.
l MITSUBISHI
Motors collects drive bat-
teries. If you scrap your vehicle, please
consult a MITSUBISHI MOTORS Au-
thorized Service Point.
EV cruising range
E00205100025
lEven if the charge level is the same, the
EV cruising range may vary depending on driving conditions. Since driving at
high speed or climbing on a hill requires higher consumption of the drive batterythan usual, the EV cruising range is shortened.

Battery
E08300101079
There are two types of batteries installed in your vehicle: a drive battery for operating the
motor (electric motor unit) and air condition-
ing as well as an auxiliary battery for starting the Plug-in Hybrid EV system and operatingthe lamps, wipers, etc.
This chapter explains charging of the drive battery.NOTEl The auxiliary battery is automatically charg-
ed while the ready indicator is illuminated orduring charge for the drive battery.
Refer to “Ready indicator” on page 6-48.
l If the auxiliary battery is flat, the Plug-in
Hybrid EV system cannot be started.Refer to “Emergency starting” on page
9-02.Basic knowledge for
charging E08300201285
There are two types of charging: normalcharging and quick charging.
Normal charging is performed through the on
board charger using rated AC 220-240V out-
let as the power source
The rated AC voltage may differ from coun-
try to country.

WARNINGlTo reduce the risk of electric shock or fire
due to electric leak, always use an earthed
outlet protected by a residual current de-
tector, rated for amperage equal to or greater than the value specified by MITSUBISHI MOTORS , and that is con-
nected to a dedicated branch circuit. If
the circuit is shared, and another electri- cal device is being used at the same time
as the vehicle is charging, the circuit may heat abnormally, the breaker may trip
and the circuit may cause adverse inter- ference on the household electrical appli-
ances such as TVs and audio systems.
l It is possible to charge even in rain or
snow. However, be sure to pay attention to the following:
• Do not touch normal charge port, nor-
mal charge connector, outlet and plug with wet hands.
• Keep away from water when connect-
ing the normal charge port, normal
charge connector, outlet and plug.
• Do not perform the charging in the out
of doors when heavy rain, heavy snow, strong winds, and when bad weather is
expected.
• Do not charge if there is possibility a
lightning strike. When thunder rum- bling begins suddenly during normal
charging, do not touch the vehicle and the EV charging cable and turn off the
breaker.WARNINGl If water goes into the normal charge port
or the normal charge connector, it couldcause a short circuit, a fire and an electric shock.
Be sure to completely close the charging
lid and the inner lid and do not leave the EV charging cable in an outdoors.
l If the connected part of the charging plug
has been buried in snow while charging, turn off the hand switch or the breaker
connected with the outlet first, then re- move the snow and disconnect the charg-
ing plug. If your vehicle body has been buried in snow while charging, remove
the snow and then disconnect the charge connector.
l When you perform the normal charging
at away from home, some normal charg-
ers may not correspond to your vehicle. Consult an administrator or a maker of
the normal charger that it corresponds to your vehicle before using it. Also perform
normal charging according to the operat-
ing procedure indicated on the body of
normal charger.
l Do not open the charging lid for anything
other than charging and using the exter-
nal power feed.CAUTIONl Do not attempt to perform a jump start on
the auxiliary battery at the same time that the
drive battery is being charged. Doing so may
damage the vehicle or charging cable and
could cause injury.
Refer to “Emergency starting” on page 9-02.NOTEl If you open the charging lid with the opera-
tion mode of the power switch is ON, a buz- zer sounds approximately 10 minutes inter-mittently to alert the charging cannot be star- ted. If you close the charging lid or put theoperation mode in OFF, the buzzer stops.
l If you insert the charge connector to the
charge port with the operation mode is ON,
a buzzer sounds continuously approximately
10 minutes to alert the charging cannot be started.
If you pull the charge connector out or put the operation mode in OFF, the buzzer stops.
l Repeatedly performing only quick charging
may reduce the battery capacity.
In usual charge, normal charging is recom-
mended.
l To maintain the capacity of the drive battery,
the following is recommended:
• If you repeatedly perform only the quick
charging, fully charge the vehicle in nor- mal charging every 2 weeks.

remove or place an item in the cargo area.
Charging may affect the operation of elec-
tric medical devices and result in serious personal injury or death.
l Do not charge when the EV charging ca-
ble is coiled up.
Doing so the cable may be heated abnor- mally and this might result in fire.
l Before charging, make sure that there is
no foreign matter such as dust at the nor-
mal charge port and the normal charge connector.
At this time, do not touch the normal
charge port.
l When the normal charge connector is
connected to the charge port, prevent for- eign matter such as water or dust from
entering in the connection.
Connection with foreign matter such as
water or dust may cause fire or an electric shock. Do not perform charging if there
might be strong exposure to water at the connection.
l Never pull the cable to remove the plug.
And never submerge the EV charging
connector, control box or plug in water.
l Please observe the following in order to
prevent accidents during charging such as
electrocution.
• Only use the EV charging cable that is
supplied with the vehicle.WARNING• Do not charge another vehicle by the
EV charging cable. The cable may overheat and this may result in a fire.
• When charging outdoors, make sure to
use an outlet that is protected from wa-
ter entering.
• Do not perform charging with the vehi-
cle covered by a car cover, except for
the MITSUBISHI MOTORS GENU-
INE car cover.
• Do not connect or disconnect the plug
and connector with wet hands.
l While it is normal for the connector and
charging cable to become warm during charging, discontinue use immediately if
the connector or charging cable becomes hot to the touch.
l While it is normal for the control box to
become warm during charging, discontin-
ue use immediately if the control box be- comes hot to the touch.
l If abnormal smells are detected or the ve-
hicle produces smoke, quickly stop charg-
ing.
l Do not perform charging in a poorly ven-
tilated area or in an enclosed area. Keep
sparks, cigarettes, and flames away from
the auxiliary battery.
Flammable gas generated from the auxili- ary battery during charging may be trap- ped, resulting in explosion.
If charging is inevitably required, venti-
late the area well.WARNINGl Grasp the normal charge connector when
connecting or disconnecting the EVcharging cable.
Grasping the cable may damage the cable
and could cause an electric shock, short circuit, and/or fire.CAUTIONl During charging, the cooling fans inside the
