may not be able to restart. Reconnect the charging connector and perform authentication for the charging station.
QProtection function of AC charging
inlet overheating (vehicles with 6.6 kW onboard traction battery char-ger)
By installing a temperature sensor to the AC charging inlet, prevents parts from melting when the temperature rises due
to foreign matter entering the charging connector. When a certain temperature increase is detected, charging is
stopped immediately and a message is displayed on the multi-information dis-play. After the temperature has
decreased, charging resumes by per- forming the operation to start charging again.
WARNING
QWhen charging
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause an unex-
pected accident, resulting in death or serious injury.
OConnect to a power source suitable
for charging. ( P.123)
OCheck that the AC charging cable,
plug and socket are free of foreign matter.
OBefore charging, check that the AC charging inlet is not deformed, damaged or corroded, and check
that the inlet is free of foreign mat- ter such as dirt, snow and ice. If there is dirt or dust in these areas,
remove completely before inserting the charging connector.
OBefore inserting the charging plug into the charger, make sure there is no dirt or dust on the terminal
areas. If there is dirt or dust in these areas, remove completely before inserting the charging plug.
ODo not get the terminals of the AC charging inlet wet.
OOnly use sockets where the plug can be securely inserted.
ODo not bundle or wind the AC charging cable while charging, as
doing so may result in overheating.
ODo not touch the terminals of the
charging connector and AC charging inlet with a sharp metal objects (needles etc.) or hands, or
short them with foreign objects.
OWhen charging outdoors, make
sure to connect to a rain-tight socket for outdoor use. Ensure the rain-tight cover closes completely. If
the rain-tight cover cannot be closed, install a rain-tight cover that will close.
OIn order to stop charging at the charging station, follow the instruc-
tions of the charger.
OIf any heat, smoke, odors, noise or
other abnormalities are noticed during charging, stop charging immediately.
ODo not insert the plug if the socket is submerged in water or snow.
OWhen charging while it is raining or snowing, do not connect or discon-
nect the plug if your hands are wet. Also, do not get the plug or outlet wet.
ODo not charge the vehicle during a lightning storm.

connected.
OAfter connecting the AC charging
cable, check that the charging indica-
tor of the charging port flashes
(P.106)
ODo not use an socket that has a power
cut off function (including a timer func-
tion)
Use an socket that constantly supplies
electricity. For sockets where the
power is cut off due to a timer func-
tion, etc., charging may not be carried
out according to plan if the power is
cut off during the set time.
QWhen the AC charging cable
remains connected to the vehicle
Even if multiple consecutive charging
schedules are registered, the next
charge will not be carried out according
to the charging schedule until the AC
charging cable is removed and recon-
nected after charging completes. Also,
when the hybrid battery (traction battery)
is fully charged, charging according to
the charging schedule will not be carried
out.
Q“Climate Prep”
OWhen the air conditioning-linked set-
ting is turned on, the air conditioning
operates until the set departure time.
Therefore, the air conditioning will
consume electricity and charging may
not complete by the set departure
time.
OIf the hybrid battery (traction battery)
is fully charged, charging will not be
carried out, even if the charging
schedule is set. However, if “Climate
Prep” is turned on, the air conditioning
will operate only once when it nears
the time set in “Departure”. If this
occurs, the air conditioning will con-
sume electricity and the remaining
charge of the hybrid battery (traction
battery) when departing may be
decreased.
OWhen the doors are unlocked, the air
conditioning system does not operate.
QWhen charging schedules are
ignored
When the following operations are per-
formed while the charging schedule is
on standby, charging schedule is tempo-
rarily canceled and charging is started.
OWhen the Remote Air Conditioning
System (P.414) is operated
OWhen turning “My Room Mode” on
(P.152)
OWhen turning “Charge Now” on
(P.149)
OWhen an operation that temporarily
cancels charging using the charging
schedule is performed (P.137)
QEffects of outside temperature
When the charging mode is set to
“Departure”, charging schedule may be
ignored due to the outside temperature
and charging may start.
Q“Battery Heater” (P.127) /“Battery
Cooler” (P.128)
When charging is carried out using the
charging schedule, the hybrid battery
(traction battery) heating or cooling func-
tion may operate according to the tem-
perature of the hybrid battery (traction
battery).
OWhen the charging mode is set to
“Start”, the function starts at the set
charging start time.
O“Battery Heater”: When the charging
mode is set to “Departure”, the func-
tion starts automatically to complete
heating by the desired departure time.
O“Battery Cooler”: When the charging
mode is set to “Departure”, cooling
starts approximately 30 minutes
before the charging start time. How-
ever, if there is no time to finish
charging by the charging schedule,
the hybrid battery (traction battery)
cooling time may be shortened and
“Battery Cooler” may not operate.
