WARNING
If you use any medical electric devices,
such as an implantable cardiac pace-
maker or an implantable cardiovascu-
lar defibrillator, check with the electric
medical device manufacturer concern-
ing the effects that charging may have
on implanted devices before starting
the charge operation. Charging may
affect the operation.
Make sure there is no water or foreign
materials in the charge port, charge
connector or electrical plug, and that
they are not damaged or affected by
rust or corrosion. If any of these condi-
tions are noticeable, do not charge the
Li-ion battery. This may result in a
short circuit or electric shock and
could cause a fire which may result in
serious personal injury or death.
To avoid serious personal injury or
death when the Li-ion battery is charg-
ing, be aware of the following precau-
tions.
Do not touch the metal contacts of
the charge port, charge connector or
electrical plug.
Do not touch the vehicle and charger
when there is lightning. A lightning
strike may back feed into the char-
ger causing damage and possible
personal injury or death.
Make sure the charge connector is re-
moved from the charge port before
starting your vehicle. If the charge con-
nector is only partially engaged and
the connector latch is unlocked, it is
possible to place the EV in the READY
to drive position.
Do not plug in or unplug the plug with
wet hands and do not stand in water,
liquid or snow. This may cause an elec-
tric shock which may result in serious
personal injury or death.
Do not disassemble or modify the
charge port or the EVSE (Electric Ve-
hicle Supply Equipment). This may
cause a fire.
If you notice an unusual odor or smoke
coming from the vehicle, stop charging
immediately.
Be careful not to allow your hands,
hair, jewelry or clothing to come into
contact with, or get caught in, the trac-
tion motor cooling fan. The cooling fan
can start at any time during charging.
CAUTION
To prevent damage to the charging
equipment:
Do not close the charge port lid
without closing the cap.
Do not subject the charging equip-
ment to impact.
Do not pull or twist the charge cable.
Do not drag the charge cable.
Do not store and use charging
equipment in locations where the
temperature is over 185°F (85°C).
