How to Disconnect AC Charger
1. Confirm that charging hasstopped on the EV charging sta-
tion display screen. 2. Hold the charging connector han-
dle and pull it while pressing the
release button (1).
Information
To prevent charging cable theft, the
charging connector cannot be discon-
nected from the charging port when
the doors are locked. Unlock all doors
to disconnect the charging connector
from the charging port.
However, if the vehicle is in the charg-
ing connector AUTO mode, the charg-
ing connector automatically unlocks
from the charging port when charging
is completed.
For more details, refer to "Charging
Connector AUTO/LOCK Mode" in
this chapter.

DC Fast Charging
DC fast charging (also known as
Level 3 charging) provides high
power DC current directly to the EV
battery. DC charging stations are
capable of charging the EV battery to
80% in less than 75 minutes under
normal conditions.
While DC charging is very fast com-
pared to AC charging, prolonged and
continuous use of DC fast charging
may reduce the long term life of the
EV battery. Usage of a DC fast
charger should be minimized when
possible in order to help prolong the
life of the EV battery.Actual charger image and charg-
ing method may vary in accor-
dance with the charging station
manufacturer.
Information
If you use a DC charger when the
vehicle is already fully charged, some
DC chargers will send out an error
message. When the vehicle is fully
charged, do not charge the vehicle.
How to Connect DC Charger
1. Depress the brake pedal and
apply the electronic parking brake.
2. Shift to P (Park) and turn OFF the vehicle using the POWER button.
Information
If charging is initiated without the
gear in P (Park), charging will start
only after the gear is automatically
shifted to P (Park). 3. Unlock the vehicle before opening
the charging door. From the out-
side the vehicle, push on the
charging door in the area indicat-
ed by the arrow to open the door.
Information
If you cannot open the charging door
due to freezing weather tap lightly or
remove any ice near the charging
door. Do not try to forcibly open the
charging door.

8. After charging has started, the
estimated charging time is dis-
played on the instrument cluster
for about 1 minute.
If you open the driver seat door while charging, the estimated
charging time is also displayed on
the instrument cluster for about 1
minute.
Information
Depending on the condition and dura-
bility of the high voltage battery,
charger specifications, and ambient
temperature, the time required for
charging the battery may vary.
Checking Charging Status
When charging the high voltage bat-
tery, the charge level can be checked

Level 1 AC Charging (120V)
(1) Power cord and plug
(2) Controller and LED display
(3) Charging Cable and Connector
A portable charger that is used for
Level 1 charging on a standard wall
outlet is stored in the vehicle rear
cargo area.
Level 1 charging can be used when
Level 2 AC charging or Level 3 DC
fast charging is not available.
How to set the charging rate ofthe portable charger
Charging an electric vehicle at home
can stress the household electrical
system more than a typical house-
hold appliance. Most modern resi-
dential electrical circuits are rated at
15 or 20 amps. The EV portable
charger is rated to supply a 12A con-
tinuous load. To avoid tripping a fuse
or breaker in the household, the
portable charger charging rate can
be reduced. Follow the steps below
to set the charging rate of the
portable charger. 1. Check the current output of the
electrical outlet prior to connecting
the portable charger in order to
determine the permissible charg-
ing rate.
2. Connect the plug to a household electric outlet.
3. Check the LED display on the portable charger controller. The
indicator "H", "M" or "L" will be dis-
played.

4. The charging rate (amps) can beadjusted on the portable charger
controller. Press the button (1) on
the back of the controller.
5. The charging rate (12A, 10A, 8A) on the LED display changes each
time you press the button. Refer to
the table to adjust the charging
rate based on the electrical outlet
current output.
6. When the charging rate is set, fol- low the procedure in the next sec-
tion to connect your vehicle.
