■The charging environment
For safe charging, the following charging equipment and settings are recom-
mended.
●Rain-tight socket
When charging outdoors, connect the plug to a rain-tight socket, and ensure
that the plug remains waterproof while the plug is connected.
●Dedicated circuit
• To reduce the risk of fire, connect only to an at least 13A branch circuit
with an over-current protection.
• To reduce the risk of electric shock when working with the plug, connect
to a socket that has a Residual Current Circuit-Breaker (RCCB) installed.
●Remote switch
Allows the electricity from the socket to be interrupted by operating a switch,
thus allowing safe removal and insertion of the plug on rainy days.
■When your circuit breaker trips during charging
The upper limit of the charging current can be changed in the “Vehicle Set-
tings” settings on the multi-information display.

*
If the breaker still trips while charging, even after changing the upper limit of
the charging current, check if the connected power source meets the speci-
fied charging conditions. (P. 136)
*: Restricting the charging current will lengthen the charging time.
