Failure to do so may cause electric shock or fire and result in serious injury, death, vehicle
malfunction, or property damage.
Precautions when using the V2L function
WARNING • Do not use the V2L function if the V2L connector, charging inlet, power plug, or cable is damaged, corroded, or rusted.
• Do not touch the V2L connector, charging inlet, or power plug with wet hands.
• Do not use the V2L function if the connection part of the V2L connector and the charging inlet is loose.
• Check if there is no water, dust, or other contaminants before connecting the connector and the power plug. They may cause electric shock or fire.
• Do not put metal objects or touch the V2L connector or charging inlet with bare hands.
• For electric devices used outdoors in a vehicle, use a product that is waterproof or use it in a waterproof environment. If rain or humidity intrude into electric devices,
multi-outlets, extension cords, etc., it may cause electric shock or damage the vehicle
or devices.
