2. Press the tab (A) to open the inner lid (B).
WARNING
 Do not touch the metal terminal of the
normal charge port (C) and the normal
charge connector.
Doing so could cause an electric shock
and/or malfunction.
CAUTION
 To help keeping foreign material out of the
normal charge port, do not leave the inner lid
open without connecting the normal charge
connector.
Doing so could allow water, dirt or other
objects to enter in in the normal charge port
resulting in a fire or electrical shock.
Normal charging (charging method with rated AC 120 V outlet)
NOTE
 There is a hole on the normal charge port for
water drainage. If this hole is blocked and
water gets trapped in the normal charge port,
do not charge. Contact a certified Mitsubishi
EV dealer.
 If the normal charge port becomes frozen,
use a hair dryer to defrost and dry the normal
charge port before charging. Forcing the
charging connector to connect with the nor-
mal charge port while it is frozen can dam-
age the normal charge port and/or prevent
charging.
3. Insert the EV charging cable plug into an
outlet.
WARNING
 Make sure that the plug is inserted all the
way into the outlet before use.
WARNING
 To reduce the risk of electric shock or fire
due to electric leak, always use a grounded
outlet protected by a ground-fault circuit
interrupter, rated AC 120 V and rated for
15 A or more, that is connected to a dedi-
cated branch circuit. If the outlet is not
grounded, the risk of electrical shock will
increase in the event of an insulation fail-
ure in the EV charging cable.
If the circuit is shared, and another elec-
trical device is being used at the same time
the vehicle is charging, the circuit may
heat abnormally, the breaker may trip
and the circuit may cause adverse inter-
ference on the household electrical appli-
ances such as televisions and audio
systems.
