2. Check to see if the Portable Charging Cordset
(EVSE) is ready to charge by reviewing the indicator
lights.

2 — Fault Indicator Light
3 — Check Outlet Indicator Light
3. If the Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) is ready to
charge, ensure the vehicle is in PARK, and then con-
nect the charge connector to the vehicle's charge
inlet. You will hear a "click" when the charge con-
nector is inserted correctly and coupled with the
vehicle's charge inlet.

Inlet
4. When the vehicle commences charging, the green
indicator light will turn on.
NOTE:
The vehicle should start charging automatically. If
not, please check the following:
○
Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) — The Portable
Charging Cordset (EVSE) status indicator lights
illuminate green, red, or yellow to identify the
charging status
page 24.
○
Wall Outlet — Check whether the wall outlet is
functional (no power outage) and/or plug the
Portable Charging Cordset (EVSE) into a different
wall outlet.
○
Charging Schedule — Check whether the charg-
ing schedules have been enabled. If enabled,
check that you are within the scheduled time
and day of the week. If a charging schedule has
been enabled in the vehicle, and it is outside the
time and day of the week, you may override the
schedule for this charging event by plugging in
the charge connector, unplugging it, and then
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
plugging it back into the vehicle charge inlet.
Complete the double plug sequence within
10 seconds for it to override the set schedule.
○
Hood Ajar — Check whether the hood is open.
Charging is disabled while the hood is open, and
will resume when the hood closes.
5. To stop the charging process, disconnect the Por-
table Charging Cordset (EVSE) from the vehicle first,
and then from the wall outlet. To disengage the
vehicle coupler, push the button on the connector.
Removing The Charge Connector From The Vehicle Charge
Inlet
6. Close the inlet door when a Portable Charging Cord-
set (EVSE) is not connected to the vehicle.
NOTE:
It is good practice to keep the ignition in the OFF posi-
tion while conducting Level 1 charging. This minimizes
any additional vehicle loads the Portable Charging Cord-
set (EVSE) has to support. The additional electrical
loads will extend the high voltage battery charging time.
