8. Charging is complete when the charging
indicator turns off.
Disconnect the quick charge connector
according to the manual of the quick char-
ger.
9. Close the inner lid and close the quick
charging lid.
 The charge level for the main drive lithium-
ion battery can be checked with the energy
level gauge (F) on the instrument cluster.
Refer to “Energy level gauge” on page 5-40.
 Operation noise may be heard from the vehi-
cle body during quick charging.
This noise comes from operation of the main
drive lithium-ion battery cooling system, and
it is not a malfunction.
 Since the main drive lithium-ion battery
cooling system uses cool air from the air
conditioning system, the air conditioning
will automatically be operated.
After quick charging, you may find dehu-
midified water from the air conditioning sys-
tem under the vehicle. It is not a
malfunction.

CAUTION
 Do not leave the quick charge connected to
the quick charge port after charging.
Someone might stumble on the charger or
the quick charge port might get damaged.
WARNING
 After charging, be sure to close the inner
lid and the quick charging lid completely.
Be careful that water or dust does not
enter in the quick charge port, inner lid
and quick charge connector.
Entry of water or dust could cause a fire,
electric shock or short circuit.
NOTE
 If the electric motor switch is turned to the
“START” position with the quick charge
connector connected to the quick charge
port, the electric motor unit cannot be
started.
Be sure to disconnect the quick charge con-
nector before starting the electric motor unit.
 Charging may stop before full charge. This is
a control for efficient charge and not a mal-
function.
To achieve full charge, repeat charging from
Step 5 again.
 Make sure that the inner lid is completely
closed before closing the quick charging lid.
If the quick charging lid is forcibly closed
without first completely closing inner lid, the
hinge on the inner lid may be broken.
