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.
