1. Charging operation
Safety functions
The CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device) has the following
safety features.
● Electrical leakage detection function
If an electrical leakage is detected during charging, the power
source will be automatically interrupted, thus preventing fires or
electrical shocks caused by electrical leakage.
● Automatic check function
This is an automatic system check that is run before charging
begins to check for problems in the operation of the electrical
leakage detection function.
● Temperature detection function
A temperature detection function is equipped to the plug. While
charging, if heat is generated due to looseness on the outlet side
etc., this function suppresses heat by controlling the charging
current.
● Conditions for supplying current to the vehicle
The CCID (Charging Circuit Interrupting Device) is designed to
prevent electrical current from being supplied to the charging
connector when it is not connected to the vehicle, even if the plug
is inserted into the outlet.
The hybrid system will not start while the charging cable is attached to the
vehicle, even if the power switch is operated.
If the charging cable is connected while the "READY" indicator is illumi-
nated, the hybrid system will stop automatically and driving will not be possi-
ble.
When the charging cable is connected to the vehicle, the shift position can-
not be changed from P to another position.
