Highlights
Cover the unused opening
The described vehicle-port application is for parked storage, with no charger connected. The cover is a dust barrier rather than a certified weather seal or a solution for charging faults.
Vehicle-port interface
The cover fits the vehicle charging-port opening. A cap designed to go over a charging-gun end has a different fitting interface and is a different part.
Remove before charging
Take the cover off completely before inserting a charging connector.

Good to Know
Caution
- Vehicle charge-port shape and charging standards vary by market and revision. A charger-plug cap is not interchangeable with a vehicle-port cover.
- Use only while parked and disconnected. Remove the cover fully before charging; keep electrical contacts, latches and the port-door mechanism unobstructed. Do not force the cover into an opening or press it against contact pins.
- This dust cover is not a rated waterproof seal or a repair for wet, damaged or contaminated charging contacts. No extreme-temperature rating, lifespan increase or damage-free fit is established here.
Care
- Clean the removed silicone cover gently and dry it fully.
- Do not trap water, grit or cleaner against electrical contacts; use the vehicle instructions for charging-port maintenance.
FAQ

Does it make the port waterproof in extreme weather?
No rated waterproof seal or extreme-temperature performance is established here.
