Also, if the selected electric rate
settings result in a very long charge
completion time, the vehicle will start
charging immediately upon plug-in.
For example, if the electric rate table

will start charging immediately upon

Instruments and controls
Charge level selection
The charge level preference setting
allows the customer to select their
vehicle's charge level so it matches
the capability of their charging
location. If the vehicle consistently
stops charging after plugging in, or if
a circuit breaker continues to trip,
reducing to a lower charge level
preference may resolve the issue.
The charge level preference should
be configured to match the electrical
current rating for the AC outlet that the
charge cord is connected to. The
charge level preference settings are:
■ Maximum - 16 Amps: Limits AC
current to 16 ampere
■ Reduced Level 1 - 12 Amps: Limits
AC current to 12 ampere
