: CHAdeMO is a standard for quick charging of electric vehicle originally started in Japan, and the contents have also become international
*
standard.
Charging time will vary depending on battery condition, air temperature and condition of power source (such as specification of the quick char-
ger).
A vehicle equipped with a quick charge port is compatible with most CHAdeMO connectors on charging stations. Charging stations using the
CHAdeMO standard are UL certified and safe to use in the US.
NOTE
The 12V starter battery will be automatically charged during charging and also while the ready indicator is illuminated. Refer to "Ready indicator" on page
5-44.
Repeatedly performing only quick charging can reduce battery capacity. Regular charging is recommended unless quick charging is necessary.
If the 12V starter battery is discharged, the main drive lithium-ion battery cannot be charged. Refer to "Jump-starting" on page 8-2.
