high voltage battery. Using
different types of chargers
may have a serious impact on
vehicle durability.
•
Make sure that the high volt-
age battery charger gauge
does not reach ''L (Low)". If
the vehicle is kept at ''L (Low)"
for a long period, it may dam-
age the high voltage battery
and the high voltage battery

EV Battery Coolant Heater

(if equipped)
When charging your vehicle, the EV
battery coolant heater may be turned
on to increase battery temperature
when the battery temperature is low
(i.e. in cold weather conditions). This
allows the EV battery to charge at
nominal temperatures and helps to
improve battery life.
Note that when the vehicle is being
charged some of the electrical cur-
rent coming from the charger is being
used to operate the EV battery
coolant heater. Electrical power con-
sumption for charging may be slightly
higher than normal.
CAUTION
The EV battery coolant heater
operates when the charging con-
nector is connected to the vehi-
cle. However, the EV battery
coolant heater may not operate
when battery temperature drops
below -31°F (-35°C).
