  1. CHARGE CANCEL HISTORY 
    NOTE:
    • This function shows the reason/cause of plug-in charging failures.
    • If plug-in charging is canceled, delayed or interrupted due to a cause other than a vehicle malfunction (no DTC output), the cause is memorized in the "Charge Cancel History".
    • According to the items in the following table, the freeze frame data and accumulated total of occurrences are recorded in the Charge Cancel History when charging fails.

    HINT: 

    • When an item is memorized in the Charge Cancel History, the next time the power switch is turned on (IG) a message is displayed on the multi-information display as "CHARGE RESULT:".
    • Reading the freeze frame data that is recorded at the time when a charging failure occurs helps determine the cause of plug-in charging failure (canceled, delayed, etc.).

  2. Charge Cancel History Freeze Frame Data 

    HINT: 

    • Up to three of the most recent data for each "Charge Cancel History" group (user operation (connector related), charging cable/charging equipment, others, and delay) is recorded as freeze frame data.
    • The latest "Charge Cancel History" freeze frame data can record data at the time a charging failure is detected as well as up to 3 seconds from that point. Freeze frame data is useful when performing troubleshooting or interviewing a customer because the plug-in charging failure condition (canceled, delayed, etc.) and user operation condition can be accurately confirmed by reading it. It can also be useful when performing a reproduction test.
    • With the latest "Charge Cancel History" freeze frame data, the charging failure detection point changes between point 3 and 4 depending on the conditions.
