Quick Reference Guide
How the Electric Vehicle Works
Instead of using gasoline to power an internal combustion engine, your vehicle uses stored electricity to power an electric pro pulsion motor.
As with a gasoline powered vehicle, the efficiency of an electri c vehicle (and the vehicle’s range) is most impacted by the driver’s driving
style. Climate control system usage also has a strong impact with heavy usage negatively affecting the vehicle’s range.
There are two types of batteries used in this vehicle, a standa rd 12-volt battery that powers the airbags, the interior and exterior lights, and
other standard 12-volt systems, and a high voltage lithium ion ba ttery that is used to power the propulsion motor and recharge the 12-volt
battery.
Charging the High Voltage Battery
You can recharge the High Voltage battery using a standar d household outlet or at a public charging station.
(P 442)
While the vehicle is charging or is parked after running, the co mpressor may operate to melt any frost that has formed on the climate
control system.
Water from the melted frost drains out through the fr ont section of the vehicle, near the undercover.

Quick Reference Guide
High Voltage Battery
The High Voltage battery gradually discharges when the vehicle is not in use. If allowed to discharge too much, the battery may become
damaged.
If your vehicle is parked for an extended period of time, du ring storage for example, periodically recharge the battery to main tain sufficient
charge levels. At least once every three months, recharge the High Voltage battery.
Excessive heat can also damage the batter y. On hot, sunny days, try to avoid parking your vehicle under direct sunlight.
If the High Voltage battery becomes fully discharged or damaged and you are unable to start the power system as a result, consult an
authorized Honda Clarity Electric dealer.
Temperature
When storing the vehicle, make sure not to expose it to extrem ely low temperatures: If the temperature of the High Voltage batt ery drops
to –22°F (–30°C) or below, the power system may not start. Wait for the High Voltage batt ery to warm up, or warm it up by plugging in the
vehicle.
If the temperature of the High Voltage battery drops to –31°F (– 35°C) or below, the power system will not start. Wait for the High Voltage
battery to warm up or move the vehicle to a warmer location. Note plugging the vehicle in will not help in this case.
