Recharging
The 120-volt Portable Charging Cable (included with vehicle) draws
approximately 15 amps. Make sure to use a dedicated and properly grounded
circuit that can supply 15 amps continuously. Have an electrician inspect the
outlet you are using to see if it meets these criteria.
n
Charger Levels
recharging time varies based on the “level” of the charger. A level-1
charger uses household current (120 volts). A level-2 charger, sometimes
called a quick charger, uses a special high-capacity circuit of 240 volts or
more. Level-2 recharging is faster than level-1 recharging.

Safety Checklist
Check these items before charging your vehicle:
• Make sure you plug the charging cable directly into the wall outlet
dedicated to vehicle charging. Do not use extension cords, adaptors, or
multi-outlet plugs between the charging cable and the outlet.
• Make sure the charging cable is fully uncoiled before use.
• Make sure the control box, charge connector, and charging cable are free
from any damage, including cracks or frays. If you find any damage to the
devices, contact an authorized Honda Clarity Plug-In Hybrid dealer.
• Make sure the charge connector and inlet are clean. If you find any
contamination or a foreign object in the connector or inlet, contact an
authorized Honda Clarity Plug-In Hybrid dealer.
• Make sure the charging cable is dry. Check that there is no water in the
immediate area and that your hands are dry.
Using a 120 volt wall outlet that is rated less than 15 amps or one that is
powering other devices can cause a fire, seriously injuring you or others.
When using the 120-volt charger, use a dedicated and properly grounded
circuit rated 15 amps or more. Consult an electrician if you are not sure.
