Opening/closing the charging port lid

To access the charging port on the Subaru Solterra, gently press the rear edge of the charging port lid as indicated in the illustration. Once released, manually open the lid fully.

■ Close

To close the charging port lid, first position it slightly open, then press the rear edge firmly until it securely locks into place.

■ About lid lifter

• If the lid lifter is pressed inward before closing the charging port lid, the lid may not close properly. In this case, ensure the vehicle is unlocked, press the lid again to release the lifter mechanism, and then close the charging port lid securely.

■ About the charging port lid open/close detection switch

When the charging port lid of the Subaru Solterra is open, avoid touching the detection switch located near the lid mechanism.

Accidental contact with this switch may cause the system to incorrectly detect the lid status, potentially resulting in inaccurate system notifications.

Charging indicator

The Subaru Solterra charging indicator uses different illumination and flashing patterns to inform the driver about the current charging status.

*1: The indicator light becomes dim once charging is fully completed
*2: The indicator flashes for a certain period and then turns off automatically.

Understanding these indicators helps Subaru Solterra drivers better monitor charging progress and ensure the vehicle is ready for efficient and reliable operation.
