A method of press-connecting a coated electric wire with a press-connecting terminal, including the step of pressing an end portion of the coated electric wire into a notched slot provided in a side plate of the press-connecting terminal so as to cut a coating portion of the coated electric wire to thereby make a conductor of the coated electric wire electrically connected to the side plate of the press-connecting terminal. In such a method, before the coated electric wire is press-connected with the press-connecting terminal, the coating portion of the coated electric wire is heated and softened so that the force necessary for pressing the coated electric wire into the notched slot is reduced to be not larger than a predetermined value.
