Delayed Charging

Override

To temporarily override a delayed
charge event, unplug the charge
cord from the charge port and then
plug it back in within five seconds.
A single horn chirp will sound and
charging will begin immediately.
To cancel a temporary override,
unplug the charge cord, wait for
10 seconds, and then plug the
charge cord back in. A double horn
chirp will sound and charging will be
delayed.
See Programmable Charging in
Programmable Charging on
page 5 29 for advanced charge
scheduling options.

Charging Status

Feedback

The vehicle has a Charging Status
Indicator (CSI) at the center of the
instrument panel near the
windshield. When the vehicle is
plugged in and the vehicle power is
off, the CSI indicates the following:
Solid Green Vehicle is plugged
in. Battery is not fully charged.
Battery is charging.
Driving and Operating
Long Flashing Green
is plugged in. Battery is not fully
charged. Battery charging is
delayed.
Short Flashing Green
is plugged in. Battery is fully
charged.
Solid Yellow Vehicle is plugged
in. It is normal for the CSI to turn
yellow for a few seconds after
plugging in a compatible charge
cord. The solid yellow may be
extended depending on the
vehicle and if there is a total
utility interruption via OnStar.
See Utility Interruption of
Charging later in this section.
This may also indicate that the
charging system has detected a
fault and will not charge the
battery. See Charge Cord
Status Indicators in the charge
cord user guide.
The system may be thermally
conditioning the battery during any
of the states above, requiring
electrical energy to be transferred to
the vehicle.
