8. Check to see that the charging
indicator light in the instrument
cluster is illuminated. Charging
has not been initiated if the charg-
ing indicator light is OFF.
If the charging indicator light is
OFF, it may be necessary to dis-
connect the charging connector
from the vehicle and repeat the
connection process. Refer to the
charging station display screen for
more information.
Information
• Radio reception may have interfer-ence when the vehicle is charging.
• Note that the vehicle cannot be shift- ed out of P (Park) when the vehicle
is charging.
9. 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. When scheduled charging is set,
the estimated charging time is dis-
played as "--".
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.

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.

4. Remove the charging port dustcover (1).
5. Inspect the charging port to make sure it is free from any dust or
debris.
6. Hold the charging connector han- dle firmly and insert the connector
into the charging port all the way.
If the connector is not completely
inserted into the charging port, arc-
ing may occur. This may cause a
fire. 7. Check to see that the charging
indicator light in the instrument
cluster is illuminated. Charging
has not been initiated if the charg-
ing indicator light is OFF.
If the charging indicator light is
OFF, it may be necessary to dis-
connect the charging connector
from the vehicle and repeat the
connection process. Refer to the
charging station display screen for
more information.
During cold weather, DC charging
may not be available to prevent
high voltage battery degradation. In high ambient temperature con-
ditions like during summer
months, the A/C system may be
operating during EV battery
charging. You may hear additional
noises generated from the opera-
tion of the A/C compressor and
cooling fan. This is a normal con-
dition.Information
Note that the vehicle cannot be shifted
out of P (Park) when the vehicle is
charging.

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.
