You can charge your vehicle through the reg-
ular charging port using 240V Electric Vehi-
cle Supply Equipment (EVSE) compatible
with i-MiEV.
Carefully read instructions on “Precautions

battery” on page 3-14, described in this sec-
tion.
For connecting/disconnecting the charging
connector to/from the vehicle, follow instruc-

Your vehicle is equipped with the quick
charging port. The quick charge port is com-
patible with most CHAdeMO* (Japanese
industry standard) connectors on charging
stations.
*: Charging stations using this standard are
UL certified and safe to use in the US.
Improper charging can result in a fire, prop-
erty damage, and serious injury or death.
Cleaning the EV charging cable
WARNING
 Before cleaning, be sure to remove the
charging cable plug from the socket and
the regular charging plug from the vehi-
cle. Do not connect or disconnect the plug
with a wet hand. Doing so can cause an
electric shock.
 Never expose the metal terminal of the
regular charge connector or the charging
cable plug to water or neutral detergent.
Water or detergent entering into the plugs
can cause a fire or an electric shock.
CAUTION
 Never use benzine, petrol, organic solvents,
acid, or alkaline solvents to clean the charg-
ing cable. Doing so could cause deformation,
discolour, or malfunction. Also, these sub-
stances may be present in various cleaners,
so check carefully before use.
Regular charging (using
240V Electric Vehicle Sup-
ply Equipment)
WARNING
CAUTION
 Be sure to use a 240V EVSE compatible
with i-MiEV. Use of a non-compatible 240V
EVSE may not charge the main drive lith-
ium-ion battery correctly or may damage the
main drive lithium-ion battery.
NOTE
 The 240V EVSE compatible with i-MiEV is
available separately. Contact a certified i-
MiEV dealer.
