Charging
to death or serious injury.
. Make sure to observe the follow-
ing precautions regarding the
charging equipment. Failure to
observe these precautions may
result in death or serious injury,
such as burns or electric shocks.
– The charging equipment is hot
during charging. Do not touch
the charging equipment, as
doing so may result in burns.
– Do not disassemble, repair or
modify the charging equip-
ment. When the charging
equipment needs to be re-
paired, consult your SUBARU
dealer.
CAUTION
. Do not insert the plug into the
charge port. The charge port may
be damaged.
. After disconnecting the charging
connector from the charge port,
make sure to close the charge
port door. Water or foreign ob-
jects may enter the charge port,
which could lead to vehicle da-
mage.
. If the charge port door is not
locked, it may open if pushed.
. After removing the plug from the
outlet, keep it in a safe place free
from moisture and dust. The
charge cable or plug may be
damaged if the cable is stepped
on or ridden over by the vehicle.
. Do not charge if the outside
temperature is −228F (−308C) or
below, as it is likely that charging
will take longer and equipment
related to charging will be da-
maged.
. Do not leave the vehicle or the
charge cable in areas where the
outside temperature is lower than
−408F (−408C). The vehicle or
charge cable will probably be
damaged.
. Due to the environment in which
the power equipment is located,
charging may be unstable due to
noise, the voltage may be insuffi-
cient, and the error warning in-
dicator on Charging Circuit Inter-
rupting Device of the charge
cable may flash.
When using a public charging station,
make sure to check the operation instruc-
tions on the charging station.
When the charge schedule is registered,
make sure "Charge Now" is on the screen
before charging. Refer to "Using the
Remote Battery Charging Timer" FP64.
! When charging
1. Prepare the charge cable.
2. Insert the charge cable into the outlet
of the external power source.
Check that the power indicator on the
Charging Circuit Interrupting Device is
illuminated.
