WARNING
!
● Improper use of the EV charging cable can result in
a fire, property damage, and serious injury or death.
Carefully read instructions regarding “Precautions
during charging the main drive lithium-ion battery”
on page 1-18 and on “Regular charging (charging
from rated AC 120 V outlet)” on page 1-21 and
described in this section and follow them.
● Always use an outlet protected by a ground-fault
circuit interrupter, rated for 15A or more, and that
is connected to a dedicated branch circuit.
● Never use an extension cable or conversion adapter.
● When using a non-waterproof outlet, take care to
avoid contact with rainwater during charging.
● Never connect or disconnect the plug with a wet
hand.
● Make sure that the plug is inserted all the way into
the socket before use. Continued charging with a
plug not completely inserted or pulled halfway out
of the socket may result in a risk of overheating or
fire.
● If the indictors show the EV charging cable mal-
functions as described below, stop using the EV
charging cable and contact a certified i-MiEV
dealer.
● Never disassemble the EV charging cable or attempt
to open the control box.
