Charging Equipment
E78097
Your vehicle is equipped with a standard
120 volt convenience cord located in the
floor compartment behind the driver seat.
Note: The 120 volt convenience cord allows
you to charge the high voltage battery using
a standard 120 volt household outlet. It
takes approximately seven hours to
completely charge an empty battery using
the standard 120 volt convenience cord.
We recommend upgrading to the optional
240 volt charging station for faster more
efficient charging. It takes approximately
2.5 hours to completely charge an empty
battery using a 240 volt charging station.
Your electrical source must meet certain
requirements for the high voltage batteries
to charge:
• The AC outlet must be a three-prong
110-120 volt AC outlet that is properly
grounded, 15–20 amps (or greater),
and in good condition.
• You must use a dedicated line, which
means you cannot have other
appliances connected to the same
circuit.
