PRECAUTIONS FOR CHARGING

ELECTRIC VEHICLE

WARNING

- Touching the

charging connector

Do not to touch the charging
connector, charging plug, and
the charging inlet when con-
necting the cable to the charger
and the charging inlet on the
vehicle. Doing so may result in
electrocution.

WARNING

- Charging

cable

• Immediately stop charging

when you find abnormal
symptoms (smell, smoke).

• Replace the charging cable if

the cable coating is damaged
to prevent electrical shock.

• When connecting or removing

the charging cable, make sure
to hold the charging connec-
tor handle and charging plug.
If you pull the cable itself
(without using the handle), the
internal wires may disconnect
or get damaged. This may lead
to electric shock or fire.

21

• Always keep the charging connec-

tor and charging plug in clean and
dry condition. Be sure to keep the
charging cable in a condition
where there is no water or mois-
ture.

• Make sure to use the designated

charger for charging the electric
vehicle. Using any other charger
may cause failure.

• Before charging the battery, turn

the vehicle [OFF].

• Be careful not to drop the charging

connector. The charging connec-
tor can be damaged.

(heat wave, etc.)
Use of quick charge in hot weather
condition should be minimized in order
to help prolong high voltage battery life.

Shape of charger and how to use
the charger may be different for
each manufacturer.

If you use a quick charger when
the vehicle is already fully
charged, some quick chargers will
send out an error message. When
the vehicle is fully charged, do not
charge the vehicle.
