The rear camera view is restricted. You cannot see the corner ends of the bumper or
what is underneath the bumper. Its unique lens also makes objects appear closer or
farther than they actually are.
Visually confirm that it is safe to drive before backing up. Certain conditions (such as
weather, lighting, and high temperatures) may also restrict the rear view. Do not rely
on the rearview display which does not give you all information about conditions at the
back of your vehicle.
If the camera lens is covered with dirt or moisture, use a soft, moist cloth to keep the
lens clean and free of debris.

Charging

The 120-volt charger draws approximately 12 amps. Make sure to use a
dedicated and properly grounded circuit that can supply 12 amps continuously.
Have an electrician inspect the outlet you are using to see if it meets these
criteria.
Charger Levels
n
Charging time varies based on the "level" of the charger. A level-1 charger
uses household current (110 volts). A level-2 charger, sometimes call a quick
charger, uses a special high-capacity circuit of 220 volts or more. Level-2
charging is faster than level-1 charging.
Safety Checklist
n
Check these items before charging your vehicle:
• Make sure you plug the charging cable directly into the wall outlet
dedicated to vehicle charging. Do not use extension cords, adaptors, or
multi-outlet plugs between the charging cable and the outlet.
• Make sure the charging cable is fully uncoiled before use.
• Make sure the control box, charge connector, and charging cable are free
from any damage, including cracks or frays. If you find any damage to the
devices, contact an authorized Honda Clarity Electric dealer.
• Make sure the charge connector and inlet are clean. If you find any
contamination or foreign object in the connector or inlet, contact an
authorized Honda Clarity Electric dealer.
• Make sure the charging cable is dry. Check that there is no water in the
immediate area and that your hands are dry.
WARNING
Using a 120 volt wall outlet that is rated less than 12 amps or one that is
powering other devices can cause a fire, seriously injuring you or others.
When using the 120-volt charger, use a dedicated and properly grounded
circuit rated 12 amps or more. Consult an electrician if you are not sure.
