• Vehicles without smart lid & connector locking system: The charging
port lid does not have a lock. Take care not to press and open the door
accidentally.
• Vehicles with smart lid & connector locking system: If the charging port
lid is not locked, take care as it may open if unintentionally touched.
●After removing the plug from the outlet, keep it in a safe place free from
moisture and dust.
The charging cable or plug may be damaged if the cable is stepped on or
ridden over by the vehicle.
■Using private power generator
Do not use private power generators as a power source for charging.
Doing so may make charging unstable, the voltage may be insufficient, and
the error warning indicator on the CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting
Device) of the charging cable may flash.
■Usable temperature range
●Do not charge if the outside temperature is -22F (-30C) or below, as it is
likely that charging will take longer, and equipment related to charging will
be damaged.
●Do not leave the vehicle or the charging cable in areas where the outside
temperature is lower than -40F (-40C). The vehicle or charging cable will
probably be damaged.
■Charging equipment
Due to the environment in which the power equipment is located, charging
may be unstable due to noise, the voltage may be insufficient, and the error
warning indicator on the CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device) of the
charging cable may flash.

Inspecting and maintaining the charging
cable
For safety, inspect the charging cable on a routine basis.
WARNING
■Routine inspection
Check the following points regularly.
Failure to do so may cause an unexpected accident, resulting in death or
serious injury.
●The charging cable, plug, charging connector, CCID (Charging Circuit
Interrupting Device) etc. have not been damaged
●The outlet has not been damaged
●The plug can be securely inserted into the outlet
●The plug does not get extremely hot during use
●The tip of the plug has not been deformed
●The plug is not dirtied by dust etc.
Remove the plug from the outlet before inspecting it. If any abnormalities
are found in the charging cable as a result of the inspection, immediately
stop use and consult your Toyota dealer.
■Maintaining the charging cable
When the charging cable is dirty, first remove the dirt with a hard, wringed
cloth, and then wipe the cable with a dry cloth.
However, never wash it with water. If the charging cable is washed with
water, fire or electric shock may occur during charging, possibly resulting in
death or serious injury.
■When not using the charging cable for a long time
Remove the plug from the outlet. Dust could accumulate on the plug or in
the outlet, possibly causing overheating which could lead to a fire.
Also, keep the cable in a place free from moisture.
