1Charging
NOTICE
Do not charge the vehicle with a vehicle cover on. It
can cause a malfunction and damage the vehicle or
charging components.
The 120 volt charger requires a properly grounded
and dedicated circuit that is protected by a 15 amp or
greater over-current protection device (circuit
breaker). For more information consult an authorized
Honda Clarity Electric dealer.
We recommend that a GFCI (ground-fault circuit
interrupter) protected outlet be used to charge the
vehicle. Follow the GFCI maker's installation
instructions, or consult an electrician if you are not
sure about installation requirements.
Inspect the charging cable plug and charging
connector, as well as the vehicle's charge inlet,
before use. If the plug or connector are dirty or
otherwise contaminated, carefully clean them with a
dry clean cloth before use. Do not wipe the metal
part of the inlet and the charging connector. Also, if
you are unable to clean the plug or connector, if the
inlet is dirty, or if any are damaged or corroded, take
the charging cable and vehicle to an authorized
Honda Clarity Electric dealer for inspection and
possible repair.
Before using a vehicle charging cable, inspect the
cable for damage such as scratches, cracks, or tears.
If you find any damage, do not use the charging
cable; instead, take it to an authorized Honda Clarity
Electric dealer for inspection.
