when the charge cable is con-
nected to the vehicle. In the event

damaged, the select lever posi-
tion may change from "P" to
another position and the vehicle
could move, possibly leading to
an accident.
. Do not refill the gasoline tank
while the battery is charging.
. Do not disassemble or modify the
charger. There is the risk of
accident or injury. Doing so could
increase the risk of accident or
injury, and it could also have a
negative impact on other de-
vices.
. Do not fuel the vehicle or wash
the vehicle when the charge port
door is open. There is the risk of
malfunction or injury.
CAUTION

ing precautions when handling
the charge cable. Failure to ob-
serve these precautions may re-
sult in damage to the charge
cable and charge port.

straight into the charge port.
– After inserting the charging
connector, do not apply ex-
cessive force to or twist the
