WHEN READING THE MANUAL
The Li-ion battery warmer uses electrical
power from an external source when a
charger is connected to the vehicle. The
Li-ion battery warmer uses electrical
power from the Li-ion battery when the
charger is not connected to the vehicle.
NOTE:
•Connect the charger to the vehicle and
place the power switch in the OFF posi-
tion when parking the vehicle if tem-
peratures may go below -1°F (-17°C). This
provides external power to the Li-ion
battery warmer when it operates and
does not discharge the Li-ion battery.
• The charging status indicator lights illu-
minate in a specific pattern when the
Li-ion battery warmer operates. The
charging status indicator lights use the
same pattern to indicate 12-volt battery
charging, Climate Ctrl. Timer operation
or Remote Climate Control operation
(models with Navigation System). The
charging status indicator lights do not
change if the Li-ion battery warmer op-
erates at the same time as the above
features. For additional information, re- fer to “Charging status indicator lights”
in the “Charging” section of this manual.
• The Li-ion battery warmer uses Li-ion
battery power to operate, even if the
vehicle is connected to a charger when:
– The vehicle's power switch is in the ON position.
– There is no electrical power being supplied to the charging equipment.
• When the Li-ion battery warmer is al-
ready in operation using an external
power source, it will continue to use the
external power even if the power switch
is placed in the ON position.
• Vehicle driving range is reduced if the
Li-ion battery warmer operates (Li-ion
battery temperature approximately
-1°F (-17°C) or colder) while driving the
vehicle. You may need to charge the Li-
ion battery sooner than in warmer tem-
peratures.
• The Li-ion battery requires more time to
charge when the Li-ion battery warmer
operates. •
The predicted charging time displayed
on the meter and navigation system (if
so equipped) increases when the Li-ion
battery warmer operates.
• Climate control performance is reduced
when using the Climate Ctrl. Timer or
Remote Climate Control (models with
Navigation System) while the Li-ion bat-
tery warmer operates.
• The Li-ion battery may not charge to
the expected level using the charging
timer while the Li-ion battery warmer
operates.
For models with 62 kWh battery
CAUTION
The Li-ion battery warmer does not
operate if the normal charger is not
connected to the vehicle. To help pre-
vent the Li-ion battery from freezing,
do not leave the vehicle in an environ-
ment if temperatures may go below
-4°F (-20°C) unless the vehicle is con-
nected to a charger.
EV-6EV Overview
The Li-ion battery warmer helps to prevent
the Li-ion battery from freezing when the
temperature is cold. The Li-ion battery
warmer automatically turns on when the
Li-ion battery temperature is approxi-
mately -4°F (-20°C) or colder and outside
temperature is approximately -11°F (-24°C)
or colder. The Li-ion battery warmer auto-
matically turns off when the Li-ion battery
temperature is approximately 0°F (-18°C) or
higher, or outside temperature is approxi-
mately -8°F (-22°C) or higher.
The Li-ion battery warmer operates when
the normal charger is connected to the
vehicle, and it automatically uses electrical
power from either the external source or
from the Li-ion battery.
NOTE:
•Connect the charger to the vehicle and
place the power switch in the OFF posi-
tion when parking the vehicle if tem-
peratures may go below -4°F (-20°C).
The Li-ion battery warmer automati-
cally uses electrical power from either
the external source or from the Li-ion
battery, based on the amount of re-
maining Li-ion battery. •
The charging status indicator lights illu-
minate in a specific pattern when the
Li-ion battery warmer operates. The
charging status indicator lights use the
same pattern to indicate 12–volt bat-
tery charging, Climate Ctrl. Timer opera-
tion or Remote Climate Control opera-
tion (models with Navigation System).
The charging status indicator lights do
not change if the Li-ion battery warmer
operates at the same time as the above
features. For additional information, re-
fer to “Charging status indicator lights”
in the “Charging” section of this manual.
• The automatic climate control auto-
matically turns on when the Li-ion bat-
tery warmer uses electrical power from
the Li-ion battery. This is not a malfunc-
tion. When the Li-ion battery warmer
operates, the temperature inside the
vehicle may be warmed up.
• The Li-ion battery will be automatically
charged when the Li-ion battery
warmer uses electrical power from an
extended source. When outside tem-
perature goes below -4°F (-20°C) for
many days, frequent Li-ion battery
warmer operation may occur, and more electric power will be charged from an
external source. Do not connect the
normal charger to the vehicle if you do
not want to turn on the Li-ion battery
warmer. In this case, do not leave the
vehicle in an environment if tempera-
tures may go below -4°F (-20°C).
• When the Li-ion battery warmer is al-
ready in operation using an external
source, it will continue to use the exter-
nal power even if the power switch is
placed in the ON position.
• The Li-ion battery warmer will stop if
the power switch is placed in the ON
position while the Li-ion battery
warmer is using electrical power from
the Li-ion battery. To turn on the Li-ion
battery warmer again, place the power
switch in the OFF position.
• The Li-ion battery warmer will stop if
the charging connector is removed
from the normal charger while the Li-
ion battery warmer is operating. To turn
on the Li-ion battery warmer again,
connect the charging connector to the
vehicle. The Li-ion battery warmer will
operate again af ter about 1 hour.
EV OverviewEV-7
•The Li-ion battery warmer will stop if
the charging connector of the quick
charger is connected to the vehicle
while the Li-ion battery warmer is oper-
ating. To turn on the Li-ion battery
warmer again, remove the charging
connector of the quick charger from the
vehicle.
• The Li-ion battery requires more time to
charge to the expected level when the
Li-ion battery warmer operates.
• The predicted charging time displayed
on the meter increases when the Li-ion
battery warmer uses electrical power
from the Li-ion battery.
• The Climate Ctrl. Timer or Remote Cli-
mate Control (models with Navigation
System) does not turn on while the
Li-ion battery warmer operates. This is
not a malfunction. •
The charging timer or remote charge
(models with Navigation System) does
not turn on while the Li-ion battery
warmer operates. This is not a malfunc-
tion.
• The Li-ion battery may not be charged
to the expected level using the charging
timer while the Li-ion battery warmer
operates.
• If the Li-ion battery warmer automati-
cally stops because of the Li-ion battery
temperature or outside temperature
change, charging will continue until the
Li-ion battery is fully charged.

3. Close the charge port cap.
4. Af ter closing the charge port cap on the charge port, close the charge port lid.
NOTE:
To stop charging mid-charge, remove
the charge connector. Charging auto-
matically stops.
HOW TO TRICKLE CHARGE
