Pull out the release key.
Make sure that the pulled out
release key is not lost.
Remove the plug-cord connec-
tor cap.

With the release key fully
inserted into the release slot of
the CCID (Charging Circuit
Interrupting Device), turn the
plug-cord connector nut of the
plug-cord to remove the cord.
After the plug-cord is removed,
remove the release key.
Do not leave the vehicle alone with the plug-cord removed. If the plug-cord
is not installed, water or other foreign matter may enter the CCID
(Charging Circuit Interrupting Device), resulting in a malfunction.
Align the protrusion of the CCID
(Charging Circuit Interrupting
Device), with the groove of the
plug-cord, insert the plug-cord
into the CCID (Charging Circuit
Interrupting Device), and then
turn the plug-cord connector
nut of the plug-cord to install it.
Make sure that there are no foreign
objects attached to the connection
before installing the plug-cord.
Remove any foreign objects if they
are attached. Otherwise, water or
other foreign matter may enter the
CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting
Device), resulting in a malfunction.
Turn the plug-cord connector nut of the plug-cord in the opposite direction
of removal until a click sound is heard and the plug-cord is secured.
Install the plug-cord connector cap and release key to the plug-cord
that has been removed.
Securely install the release key to the protection cap to prevent it from
being lost. Also, make sure that the release key does not fall out of the pro-
tection cap accidently.
Store the plug-cord in a safe, clean and dry place.

WARNING
■When using the charging cable and CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupt-
ing Device)
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause an unexpected accident, resulting in death or
serious injury.
● Do not attempt to disassemble or repair the charging cable, charging con-
nector, plug or CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device).
If a problem arises with the chargi ng cable or the CCID (Charging Circuit
Interrupting Device), stop charging immediately and contact any autho-
rized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized repairer, or any reliable repairer.
● Do not subject the charging cable, charging connector, plug or CCID
(Charging Circuit Interrupting Device) to strong force or impact.
● Do not apply excessive force to the charging cable by forcefully folding,
twisting, pulling or dragging the charging cable.
● Do not damage the charging cable with sharp objects.
● Do not fold the charging connector or plug or insert foreign objects into
them.
● Do not put the charging connector and plug into water.
● Do not bring the charging cable to a high-temperature item such as a heat-
ing device.
● Do not apply a load to the charging cable and plug-cord (such as wrapping
the charging cable around the CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device)
and the charging connector).
● Do not use or leave the charging cable in situations where a load is applied
to the socket and the plug (such as when the CCID (Charging Circuit Inter-
rupting Device) is hanging in the air without contacting the ground).
● Mode 3 charging cable: Do not use outside the rated voltage (less than 277
V) or rated current (less than 20 A).

WARNING
■When replacing the plug-cord (if equipped)
Check the following points regularly.
Failure to do so may cause an unexpected accident, resulting in death or
serious injury.
● Do not replace the plug-cord with wet hands.
Also, do not replace in a place that is rainy or wet.
● Do not replace the plug-cord when the plug and/or charging connector are
connected.
● Check whether there are any local EV-charging regulations in place, and
adhere to them.
● Do not leave the CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device) with the plug-
cord removed.
● Make sure that there are no foreign objects attached to the connection
when installing the plug-cord to t he CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting
Device).
● When replacing the plug-cord, firmly turn the nut of the plug-cord until a
click sound can be heard.

NOTICE
■When use the charging cable and related parts
 P. 174
■ Precautions for low temperatures
In low temperatures, the charging cable and plug-cord may become hard.
Therefore, make sure to not apply excessive force when they are hard. If
excessive force is applied to the hardened charging cable and plug-cord,
they may be damaged.
■ Precautions for the plug-cord (if equipped)
Do not use the plug-cord for any use other than charging this vehicle. Doing
so may cause the plug-cord to be damaged.

1362-2. Charging

Inspecting and maintaining the charging cable
WARNING
■Routine inspection
Check the following points regularly.
Failure to do so may cause an unexpected accident, resulting in death or
serious injury.
● The charging cable, plug, charging connector, CCID (Charging Circuit
Interrupting Device) etc. have not been damaged
● The socket has not been damaged
● The plug can be securely inserted into the socket
● The plug does not get extremely hot during use
● The tip of the plug has not been deformed
● The plug is not dirtied by dust etc.
Remove the plug from the socket before inspecting it. If any abnormalities
are found in the charging cable as a result of the inspection, immediately
stop use and consult any authorized Toyota retailer or Toyota authorized
repairer, or any reliable repairer.
■ Maintaining the charging cable
When the charging cable is dirty, first remove the dirt with a hard, wringed
cloth, and then wipe the cable with a dry cloth.
However, never wash it with water. If the charging cable is washed with
water, fire or electric shock may oc cur during charging, possibly resulting in
death or serious injury.
■ When not using the charging cable for a long time
Remove the plug from the socket. Dust could accumulate on the plug or in
the socket, possibly causing overheating which could lead to a fire.
Also, keep the cable in a place free from moisture.
