Operation Manual
130 Driving and operating
A portable charge cord used to
charge the vehicle high voltage
battery is stored under the load
compartment.
The charge cord used to charge the
vehicle is a highâpowered electrical
device. During normal operation, the
AC wall plug of the charge cord may
feel warm. The AC wall plug must fit
tightly into an AC outlet that is in good
condition.
Charge cord status indicators
The charge cord status indicators
illuminate green or flash red to identify
the charge cord status. When both
indicators are green, the vehicle can
be charged. If any indicators are
flashing red, the charge cord will not
permit vehicle charging.
When the AC indicator c flashes red,
the AC voltage is out of range.
When the AC indicator c and the fault
indicator d flash red, the AC outlet
does not have a proper safety ground.
Charging is not permitted for safety
reasons. The AC outlet must be
repaired or another outlet source
should be used.
When just the fault indicator d
flashes red, there may be a charge
cord fault. The charge cord will
attempt to reset automatically. If the
fault indicator d continues to flash for
more than 30 seconds, unplug the
charge cord from the wall to reset. If
the fault remains, seek the assistance
of a workshop.
Charge level button
9 Warning
If the capacity of the electrical
circuit or AC socket is not known,
only use charge level 1 until the
circuit capacity has been
inspected by a qualified
electrician. Using a charge level
that exceeds either the electrical
circuit or the AC outlet capacity
may start a fire or damage the
electrical circuit.
Notice
By choosing a reduced charge level,
the charging time is increased.
